I can’t think of a school or youth organization that doesn’t espouse “success habits” in one form or fashion, including those I grew up in.
I never understood very clearly the connection between WHAT I was told to do, HOW I was to do it, and WHY. In fact, I was rarely told why; I was just told it was good for me. If I was told why, I likely would have retained more of what I experienced.
In this post I am sharing Success Habit Scale with its own language, process, and metrics (and best, it’s short and easy to digest!).
WHY take this simple, TWO-STEP journey? My answer: to increase the chances of achieving your goals and successfully executing your mission in life and create meaning.
I would be very grateful if you would share your ideas and experiences in order to improve theSuccess Habit Scale. Be as critical as you are able. I can take it. Let’s get better together.
