Many successful businessmen and women call their routines and habits their secrets to success. Bill Gates spends an hour on the treadmill watching courses from the Teaching Company, and David Cameron, former British Prime Minister, has a ‘no TV’ rule in his house in the mornings to spend quality time with his family before work.
Most of us understand the importance of routine when it comes to business. We will put all our effort into a well-managed, smooth-running workday. Yet you are part of your business empire, and how you manage yourself personally could be the key to your success.
We exercise willpower and self-control daily to achieve goals and restrain impulses we know may negatively affect us. Resources from the American Psychological Association suggest that our ability to exercise decreases after repeated use, much like muscle fatigue during exercise.
Having a few healthy habits early in the day can help us effectively use our willpower when it’s tempting to procrastinate or revert to bad habits. A positive mood can buffer the effects of repeated self-control, making achieving this an essential aim of your morning routine.
Your routine, however, will differ from the routines of almost every other person you meet. Often, people fall into the trap of following their mentors’ footsteps or those they are inspired by, but they forget that everyone has a different life path and that copying all the actions would cause them more harm than benefit.
There are a few things that all people who want to do something great in life and leave a legacy behind do follow in everyday routine; these things may include:
- Don’t Be Afraid to Fail
- Exercise and Stay Fit
- Always Be Networking
- Make Time to Spend With Loved Ones To Stay Content
- Achieve Your Entrepreneurial Goals
There might be many entrepreneurs you would get to read about on the topic, but the best one includes a name that is the inspiration for our write-up today, Daniel Marcos. He is the co-founder and CEO of Growth Institute, the leading online executive education company for C-level executives at fast-growing firms. He is an entrepreneur, business coach, and passionate learner.
Along with many titles, a serial entrepreneur is permanently attached to Marcos’ name. Being one of the great businessmen around the globe has been an achievement for him, and he certainly is doing all justice to this title by simply providing benefit to people around him. He left his legacy behind by teaching other people the importance of staying consistent with their routines.
In less than a decade, Marcos has led his company, Growth Institute, to be recognized as one of the top 5,000 fastest-growing companies in the USA for 4 years in a row with over 55,000 members from 11,000 companies across 70 countries.
The Growth Institute was born out of Marcos’ vision to help entrepreneurs to be good leaders and successfully scale their companies, all while still maintaining a high quality of life. Marcos is on a mission to give executives the support and methodologies he wishes he had in his entrepreneurial journey.
As a serial entrepreneur, Marcos quickly realized that CEOs are often the company’s bottleneck. In the same way, you can’t solve a problem without first elevating your mindset; a business can’t evolve beyond what the CEO can handle.
