Definitely Time to Start a New Habit
This GREAT video explains what I have been doing to avoid success all these years! I was going to say “wrong” all these years, but I HAVE learned from my many mistakes.

Ivan Misner, founder of the longstanding Business Network International, says doing six things things a thousand times will make you much more effective and successful in business than doing a thousand things six times.
What I often find is that business people look for the bright, shiny object, he says. Oh look at this, this is a great idea, let’s try this, let’s try that… no. You really want to be successful? You have to do things over and over and over again, consistently.
We are what we do, repeatedly. Therefore excellence is not a single act — it’s a habit.
We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act -- but a habit.
