Hello!
Billionaires like Elon Musk, Mark Cuban, and Jack Dorsey do things every day that help focus their passion, increase their productivity and creativity, and align themselves with their goals. And no, you don’t need assistants and staff to follow suit – anyone can do the same.
Here are six daily habits of self-made billionaires
They meditate
As we’ve recently written about, meditation can lower stress, boost memory, and even improve your immune system.
“Meditation, even over anything in my entire life, was the largest ingredient of all success I have had,” Ray Dalio, creator of Bridgewater Associates, told The Huffington Post. Not convinced? Oprah Winfrey has stated sitting for 20 minutes, twice each day, instills in her sense of confidence, pleasure, and happiness.
“Knowing for certain that in the daily craziness that bombards us from every direction, there’s still the constancy of stillness,” Oprah composed on her site. “Just from this distance can you produce your own very best work and life.”
They get up early
As you may still be hitting the snooze button, many billionaires have started their day. As per a research by Thomas C. Corley, the writer of Rich Habits: The Daily Success Habits of Wealthy People, 50 percent of billionaires wake up three hours prior to their workday.
Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter and Square, allegedly wakes up in five a.m. daily to meditate and exercise. The same is true for Richard Branson, the founder of the Virgin Group, that climbs at 5:45 a.m. to work out.
They live below their means
They have cash in the bank (understatement alert), but it does not mean that they overspend. A number of the planet’s wealthiest men and women live frugally.
“Why do I drive a pickup truck? What am I supposed to haul my puppies around in, a Rolls-Royce?” He said.
Warren Buffett, one of the world richest individuals, purchased his home in 1956 for $31,500, and hasn’t updated for something much more lavish and big.
Not to be outdone, Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg is popularly famous for his hoodie-jeans-sneakers dress code, that will be much more affordable than customized designer suits.
They read
“Not all readers are leaders, but most of leaders are readers,” President Harry Truman once said, and that he had been on to something; lots of self explanatory billionaires are voracious readers. Case in point: if Elon Musk was asked how he learned to build rockets, he allegedly replied,”I read novels ”
Warren Buffett is just another excellent example of a self-made billionaire that’s constantly seeking to improve his knowledge. When he began his careerhe read 600 pages every day. He still spends about 80 percent of his afternoon reading, and contains recommendations in his yearly shareholder letters.
They exercise
Exercising has obvious health advantages, from increasing fat burning and strengthening your heart, but it could also play an important part in enhanced energy, endurance, and anxiety control.
Science has discovered that exercising regularly may enhance concentration, memory, and mental sharpness — traits which may have a large influence on your livelihood and achievement.
Unsurprisingly, Mark Cuban, with an estimated net worth of $3 billion, will take an hour of aerobic six to seven days weekly. And Richard Branson, who we formerly mentioned wakes up early to work outside, claims the custom increases 4 hours of productivity to his afternoon.
They sleep
“Sleeping your way to the very best,” says Arianna Huffington, co-founder of The Huffington Post. No, not at all how you are thinking (shame on you). Huffington understands the prescribed 8 hours of sleep each night, and considers that the more people sleep, the better people can work towards our objectives.
“Our imagination, creativity, confidence, leadership, and decision-making could be improved by simply getting enough sleep,” she states.
Ok, you’re saying, but she’s only a millionaire. Fair enough. But what if we told you that Bill Gates also sleeps seven hours every night. That’s right. Bill Gates.
So, what have we learned? Essentially, the most successful people make time for themselves, to learn and reflect, push themselves and then get the rest they need. The good news is, you can do this too.
