20 Successful Habits Every Business Owner Should Practice

1. {Appreciate Life} Recognize the full worth of life and don't take it for granted. 

2. {Choose Your Friends Wisely} Your vibe attracts your tribe. Who are the top five people in your circle of influence? Prosperous and positive or Negative Aunt Nellie and Broke Uncle Bob? Surround yourself with people who will support you in your goals and aspirations.  

3. {Be Considerate} Think of others. Value + respect their opinions. 

4. {Personal Development} A plant only keeps growing and blooming with proper care, water and soil. What and how often are you feeding your mind? Are you investing in your personal development daily or scrolling Facebook where the energy can be toxic and lead to arguments with strangers?

5. {Creative Problem Solving} Think outside the box. Don't be afraid to go left when everyone else is going right. 

6. {Passion + Purpose} Find what sets your soul on FIRE. Learn to do it well and you can turn your passion into a paycheck!

7. {Laugh} It truly IS the best medicine. 

8. {Forgive} Holding on to junk will eat a hole in your soul. Learn to let sh*t GO. 

9. {Gratitude} Get an attitude of gratitude and practice it DAILY. Want to take this a step further? Start a gratitude journal. It will change your perspective and your life when you focus on what is going right and your many blessings instead of what is going wrong. 

10. {Invest in Relationships} Want more success in your life and business? Learn to build PEOPLE. 

11. {Meditate} Stay tapped into your inner glow. 

12. {Mind Their Own Business} Stop worrying about where the grass is greener and water your own yard. 

13. {Optimism} Where the mind goes energy flows. Positive attracts more positive. You ARE what you attract. 

14. {Authenticity} Be real + raw + transparent. Don't chase after what others are doing. DO YOU. 

15. {Persistence} Know what you want and keep chasing the dream until you get it. 

16. {Self Care} The act of being responsible to you, for the benefit of your health, happiness and well being.

17. {Be Still} Learn to slow down and stress less. Stillness creates opportunity, joy and bliss. Focus less on the to-do lists and focus more on the journey + adventure. 

18. {Confidence} Know and realize your gifts and talents. Appreciate your own abilities and qualities. Don't compare yourself to others. 

19. {Living with Intention} Knowing your purpose and how precious life is. "You have to find what sparks a light in you so that you, in your own way, can illuminate the world" - Oprah. 

20. {Goal Setting} A statistic shared by Dave Ramsey shows that "67% of the wealthy write down their goals v. 17% of the poor". Know where you are going and how you will get there! A goal not written down is just a wish. 

Define success on your own terms, achieve it by your own rules, and build a life you're proud to live. – Anne Sweeney.
