No matter what your personal or business life looks like, you can increase your success by eliminating certain negative traits from your life. Look at the list below and see if one or more of these describe you. If so, set a goal to eliminate that factor from your life.

Five Things to Eliminate to Increase Your Success

1. Negative Expectations.

Rather than focusing on negative situations or results that MIGHT occur. Focus on the best-case scenario for every situation. Positive expectations more often result in positive results.

2. Lack of Trust.

Trust your staff, your family, your friends. But, most importantly, trust yourself and your ability to make good decisions that enable you to feel happy and satisfied.

3. Lack of Focus.

To achieve real success, decide what you need to do and focus relentlessly to make that happen. Put on those blinders and push straight ahead.

4. Blame.

You alone are responsible for your happiness and success. If things are not going your way, it’s up to you to make a change. The sooner you get past blaming others for what’s happening in your business or life, the sooner you’ll move on to success and satisfaction.

5. Seeking Happiness from Outside Yourself.

Happiness doesn't come from the outside; it comes from within. It is not a factor of what you own or how much money you make. It comes from peace of mind and fulfillment, which are totally within your control.
