Avoid these and you'll automatically be on the right track (provided you want to be successful)…1. Mixing With LosersIt's a guaranteed way to fail in life with this. Whatever you like to do, losers will just tell you it won't work and after some time, you will also become a loser. Something about losers you should know: they like to recruit new people and are very comfortable in their shoes. They don't welcome change. So when you see someone with either of these two characteristics, you know what you should do.2. Don't Know What You WantMost people say, "I want to be rich". It's fine with that generic goal but the problem is, how rich do you want to be? Or how rich is rich? Put it this way - the methods used to make a million and $3,000 are different. No wonder some people couldn't experience breakthroughs in life because they are playing small for big goals. If you want to make a million, you better put in that level of commitment.3. You Want EverythingIt's nice to have a lot of things but if you go chasing everything, you get nothing. Let me tell you why - you only have 24 hours a day and you've got to focus on your priorities.4. Watching "The Secret" Way Too MuchIt's a surefire way to fail if you keep on watching "The Secret" and doing `attraction' by sitting down on your floor manifesting 3 hours a day. When you believe you can achieve your goal, you will take actions to actually achieve it but if you don't understand this basic element and think dreaming is some sort of miracle remedy you're in for a big surprise for failure.5. You Don't Truly Know Why You Want SuccessMost people failed to achieve their goals because they never complete the journey– they give up half way (or at the beginning) because they cannot see the worth of accomplishments.6. You Don't Remember Your RootsThere are people who achieved success and never felt gratitude towards those who have helped them. Is it so hard to say thank you? The law of reciprocity is simple – you return favors to those who helped you in the past. And maybe, they'll help you again in the future. Remember this - it takes more than just you to achieve success, so don't be a jerk.7. You Think You're SmartThe day you stop learning is the day you stop improving yourself. If you don't want to fail in life, make you sure you stop acting as though you already know everything. The fact is, all successful people are people who continuously learn to be even more successful. They don't stop.8. You Listen To The Wrong PeopleDo yourself a favor, don't get wrong advice. It'll stick in your brain and lead you to make stupid interpretations in life.9. You Think Short TermYou'll hear this happening often in many 'successful' people's stories – make a lot of money to lose it all. This probably because they became too comfortable and the other thing is, once you achieve success, you should ride on the wave when the momentum is there. When you think short term, you're only going after the instant pleasure. You must learn to master `delay gratification' so that you can enjoy your today's labor.10. You're Blind To What Is Important In LifeThere are only two things that are important in your life – control of time and experiencing happiness. Money, love, big cars, diamonds, etc are the things that contribute to these two benchmarks of successes. For instance, if you have money, you don't need to work so that you can have more time to do the things you like. It's not the money that you're trying to get but what the money CAN DO FOR YOU.So now you know the 10 ways to fail in life. Question is, are you doing any of these?__._,_.___

  • it's so true the article. I notice sadly i have some of them (in more or less extent in some period of life). Sometimes in life, we are completely aware of bad things we do leave taken by these then moan ourselves for unfaireness.
