Some Interesting Characteristics of Successful People

A really good article by Heidi Grant Halvorson, Ph.D., from the Harvard Business Review Blog Network: "Nine Things Successful People Do Differently." Here are the nine things...

1. Get specific
2. Seize the moment to act on your goals
3. Know exactly how far you have left to go
4. Be a realistic optimist
5. Focus on getting better, rather than being good
6. Have grit
7. Build your willpower muscle
8. Don't tempt fate
9. Focus on what you will do, not what you won't do

Of course there are a lot more than nine things. But I do like these nine. The article is worth reading. Read the complete article...
