If there is a word that can't have a single definition or meaning, it will be the word "Success". Success can't be defined for you, you've got to define it yourself. What does success mean to you?
While you may be busy in giving an answer to that question yourself, I'll tell you mine:
What Success Mean To Me
Success is overcoming or getting rid of hurdles and attempts of failures to accomplishing one's defined goals.
Without goals, there's no success. The thin line between success and failure is Perseverance, you can set goals but staying focus after many failure is what success is.
No, Success is not the final... We keep moving. Success entails passion, mental toughness, constant learning and willingness to take risks. Remember there are no successes without goals and there are no achievement of goals without sacrifices and risk taking.
What Should People Do To Be Successful?
The successful people we hear of today were once people without goals or vision, some may have been one of those who even lacked good habits but they learned even when people say good habits are hard to learn, they kept focused on learning those habits even when people see it as an impossible.
Those habits are more of conscious efforts while some require more time of skill and practice but success is the outcome of all when you grow those habits.
Simple Habits Of Successful People
@creativeinsight said in his post titled Time Wasted Regretting
The fact will always remain that the most active business people and investors face more of these pains of regret - because they want to catch every single good opportunity, but this is hardly possible
Some people may believe luck and opportunity exist for the unsuccessful to become successful but without these habits, one could miss out on these opportunities and this is the reason you should cultivate these habits and apply them to your life to set you ready for whatever opportunities that come by.
Organization
For one who finds it hard to keep focused on being successful, there is need to set priorities and goals, to have a to-do list before going to bed. Every new day should have a plan, not just a plan but one that would make you better at what you do in becoming your own successful. Sundays should be for organizing how you want your week to be, preparation is always a key to avoiding failure.
Relaxation
This habit comes natural when you're organized. Taking time to meditate and avoid distractions at a time of your day gets you ready for whatever hard work coming that you may face. Taking deep breathe sometimes, taking walks and even sleeping for some time recharges and relax you in staying organized towards your goals.
Take Actions
You any set goals and priorities but without working or taking actions on them, they're remain as just goals. Successful people act even before they are ready. Take your step to achieving your goals while others are procrastinating. Procrastination has never been a friend to success, it kills time and delays success. Be more of actions than saying words, learn to put your goals on motion.
Personal Care
One can't be successful with bad health habits. Be careful with your meal, exercise more and keep a healthy hygiene. All these can only be accomplished when one has a more disciplined lifestyle and you can grow the habit. Eat healthy meals, exercise to relax your muscles, shower as much as you can... They are little things that grows a successful person. Rising early is also a healthy habits for your goals that need your time.
Learn to share ideas with those who look up to you, keeping those knowledge to yourself isn't a habit of a successful person. Donate to charity when you can, it goes a long way.
Read more to learn new ways of achieving your set goals, a little knowledge gained could reverse an incoming failure.
Learn to spend wisely, avoid overspending as you would also need money to achieve your goals. Save/invest more than you spend.

The day before Yesterday, I had a plan of how the rest of my day was going to be like yesterday. Then when I woke up, I immediately knew that I wasn't going to achieve my written down plans. How did I know?
I woke up late and reluctant.. there was a burden on my shoulder and I guess it was in my head instead. I still went about my activities but with less zeal, I just did what I could and that was it. Where am I going with this?
Sometimes, things might not go according to your plan. They're bound to be days when your body just doesn't want to follow your lead, or your mind is just too tired. What do you do then??
That's where good health and proper resting comes in. There's no need to push your body and mind to the extreme, take a break, breath in, breath out, go for a walk relax and get back your strength. When you do this, gather enough vibe to make up for the lost day. The most successful people in the world arnt the best hard workers, they just discovered what works for them and mastered it to the fullest and then they shared their knowledge with others and also learnt from others. Learning can never stop no matter what stage you reach in this life. Be open minded, be humble, have a good listening ear and you'll see how things would turn out and like @readthisplease post taught me, going slowly is the fastest way to achieve your aim(not his exact words).
Nice one @merit.ahama you're destined for greatness. You're ❤️
Amazing feedback!!! Thanks for adding more backbone to my article 😉
And for your plans not going as planned sometimes, it's all part of the plans actually. It can't be perfectly followed but you've got to have a plan to follow.
I appreciate your kind wishes, have a nice day ahead
I like the last part 👇👇
It's a perfect rule for anyone starting out to build wealth. We should always have a portion lying in wait for a good investment portfolio. Less spending, savings, and living on budget will help us realize this feat.
Nicely written sweetheart, I pray success will come to you as it will come to all of us. See you at the top, babe, cheers.
Awww my sweet girl, thanks for pointing that out and for sure... See you at the top 😘
My pleasure ☺️
Sure, darling 🤗😊
