Brian Tracys Top 11 Essential Tips for Living a

Successful Life

The great breakthrough in your life comes when

you realize that you can learn anything you need to learn to accomplish any goal that
you set for yourself.
Spend eighty percent of your time focusing on the opportunities of tomorrow rather
than the problems of yesterday.
Success comes when you do what you love to do, and commit to being the best in your
field.
One of my absolute favourite personal development people is Brian Tracy. He has
written many, many books about success, effectiveness and leadership.
What do I like about him?

He gets to the point quickly. Brian Tracy is one of the most concise writers I have
found in the personal development niche so far.

His products are often jampacked with practical value. You get stuff you can use
when you buy one of his products rather than just a few tips and a lot of motivational
padding.

Here are just 11 of my favourite tips from Brain Tracy at the moment.

If you want to learn much more I highly recommend checking out books either in
paper or audio form like Time Power and The Psychology of Achievement. Also, check
out the Focus & Concentration Paraliminal, its my favourite to sharpen my focus and
boost effectiveness.
1. Change your self image.
The person we believe ourselves to be will always act in a manner consistent with our
self-image.
We will always tend to fulfill our own expectation of ourselves.
Move out of your comfort zone. You can only grow if you are willing to feel awkward
and uncomfortable when you try something new.
You will often stop yourself from doing stuff that just isnt you. But when that stuff is
the new normal, the stuff you just do because you are you then it becomes a lot easier.
How can you change your own self image?
Heres what I used to see myself as a fit and healthy person rather than a person who
dabbles in such stuff occasionally:

A ton of proof. Your mind needs proof that you are this new person. The proof is the
experiences you have had. So if you really dive in and immerse yourself in something like
fitness and work out every other/every day, read a lot about it all and are eating healthy stuff
in a conscious way you change a lot about your day to day living environment. Expanding
your comfort zone like this will quickly give you a lot of experiences and so the change can
come about quicker than if you dabble a bit with it for a few years.

Let go of your old self image. In my experience you can shift back and forth between
two self images. I think at some point you have to make a shift and let your old identity go if
you want to grow. It may be your identity when it comes to health. Or money. Or socially. The
problem is that the old image is so familiar and reassuring that your mind may not want to
let go. I recommend checking out Let Go! to learn how to better let go of your past self image
and other things in your life.

2. Create helpful habits.

Successful people are simply those with successful habits.
Pretty simple. Our habits are what we tend to do consistently in our day to day life and
so they control our success or lack of it very much.
What are successful habits? Some you can find in this article. A few others are:

Do the most productive thing right now.

Do one thing at a time.

Do things even when you dont feel like it.

How do you install them in your life? Two tips:

The 30 day challenge. You have probably read about this old personal development
concept before. Basically, you make a deal with yourself to do one thing for just 30 days (one
example: exercise every day) and no more than that. But after those 30 days you may
discover that your mind will have become so accustomed to this new behaviour that it will be
easier to continue doing it than stop doing it.

Just focus on the process. While doing something for those 30 days you focus on the
process rather than the results. I for instance use this when I workout. I dont take
responsibility for the results in my mind. I take responsibility for showing up even the days
when I dont feel like it and doing my workout. The results come anyway from that
consistent action. And this makes it easier for me to take this action and establish the new
habit when I know that is all I need to focus on. Instead of using half of the energy and focus I
have available on hoping that I reach my goal real, real soon. Focus on the process and you
will be a lot more relaxed and prone to continue than if you stare yourself blind on the
potential results that never come as quickly as you want to and puts you on an emotional
rollercoaster from day to day.

3. Focus on what is useful.

Whatever you dwell on in the conscious grows in your experience.

The key to success is to focus our conscious mind on things we desire not things we
fear.
This is very important and something I think many people dont grasp the full extent of.
I certainly didnt before. When your focus is split, when you fill your mind just the
normal amount of negativity or dwell on for example mistakes you are using up
valuable time, energy and available focus to pull yourself backwards and to make
mountains out of molehills.
Problems seem to become bigger in your mind than they actually are when you dwell on
them. But so does, for example, opportunities and gratitude. Your surrounding reality is
huge. And the room for interpretations of that reality is wide. What you focus is what
you will see in your reality (opportunities vs. more reasons why things suck). What you
dwell on becomes bigger and bigger in your mind. And what you think about is what you
will act upon.
Thats basically why its absolutely crucial to keep your focus and your thoughts in right
place and on the positive and useful things in your life as consistently as you can. If you
focus on the negative and irrelevant stuff it is quite likely that you never get all those
most important things done.
4. Set clear goals. And write them down.
People with clear, written goals, accomplish far more in a shorter period of time than
people without them could ever imagine.
To be able to focus consistently on what you want you can use goals. If you use them,
write down so they transform from thoughts into something physical and real. You can
use that piece of paper as a reminder posted on a wall for example later on to keep
your focus in the right place each and every day.
5. Ask yourself helpful questions.
After every difficulty, ask yourself two questions: What did I do right? and What
would I do differently?

The questions you ask yourself in life determine much of your outlook and success. If
you ask disempowering questions like what sucks about this? in any situation then you
are creating a lot of unhappiness and victim thinking. If you on the other hand keep it
on a useful and empowering level with questions like the ones from Tracy then your
chances of succeeding goes up.
You can find more empowering questions in 11 Questions That Could Help You to Vastly
Improve the Quality of Your Life in 2009.
6. Luck is predictable.
Ive found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances. Be
more active. Show up more often.
People who take the action and more chances in life tend to get the luck. If you never
take chances or action you dont get the opportunity to get lucky. You might just sit
around doing nothing and rationalize it as being unlucky.
Also, if someone focuses on what s/he wants s/he tend to find more opportunities and
other useful things that someone with a negative focus will simply not be lucky enough
to see.
7. Focus on the activities that brings you results.
Most people engage in activities that are tension-relieving rather than goalachieving.
This is very true. People love to just take it easy or relieve tension and create more of it
by procrastinating and complaining instead of doing. It seems easier on the surface
but in the long haul it tends to cause you more pain.
Of course, you must take time to relax too. But find a good and helpful balance for the
two aspects of life and the best ways and most positive ways to relieve tension. Three
suggestions could be regular exercise, meditation in some form or just watching a good
movie.

8. Realize that you have to pay the price.

The price of success must be paid in full, in advance.
Nothing you really want in life is free. You have to put in hard work to get it. And usually
over a long time period. You have to make hard choices and sacrifices.
Now, doing so can produce a lot of happiness along the way and when you reach your
destination. But when you take the step from comfortable dreams about success and
happiness to actually start doing things then there is always a price to pay. So be
prepared for that.
9. Keep going.
Every great success is an accumulation of thousands of ordinary efforts that no one
else sees or appreciates.
Thats what people like Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan and Bruce Springsteen did. They
practiced a lot.
How do you put in all that time and effort if no will reward you right now? Well, you find
things you love doing, things you do for yourself rather than to get someone elses
attention and appreciation and when things feel rough you just do what you know is
the right thing to do anyway. You keep going with persistence but also simple the joy of
doing what you love as two supporting friends.
10. Make a decision. Any decision. Just do something.
Decisiveness is a characteristic of high-performing men and women. Almost any
decision is better than no decision at all.
I harp on about this a lot on the blog from time to time. Thats because its one of the
most fundamental things that hold people back. Sitting on you hands and hoping that
someone else will do something for you usually results in a lot of waiting.

Just make a decision. Try something. The sky will most likely not fall if you fail. You will
just feel bad for a short while and learn a few things from asking the question in tip # 5.
Then you make new decision based on what you learned and take action again.
11. Take responsibility for your life.
The happiest people in the world are those who feel absolutely terrific about
themselves, and this is the natural outgrowth of accepting total responsibility for
every part of their life.
The more you like yourself, the better you perform in everything that you do.
Disciplining yourself to do what you know is right and important, although difficult,
is the high road to pride, self-esteem and personal satisfaction.
A lot of the tips in this article are based in taking full responsibility for your own life.
When you do that you will start doing many of these things naturally like making
decisions, putting in hard work and really trying to keep your focus in the right place.
When you decide to take responsibility for your life and doing what you know deep
down is right for example, going to gym instead of lying on the couch eating potato
chips you increase your esteem of yourself. You like yourself more and more as your
self esteem goes up.
When your self esteem goes up you feel more worthy of any success and you are less
likely to self sabotage in subtle and not so subtle ways. This is crucial and ties back to tip
# 1. You tend to behave in alignment with your own self image.
Taking responsibility for your own life and doing the right thing are not the only things
you can do to increase your self esteem and success. Another powerful tip is to like/love
other people. Why? Because how you view, judge and think about people is usually how
you view, judge and think about yourself.
This may sound a bit weird. But try it out for a week or two and see how it affects your
view of yourself and your life. You may be surprised.
