One of my colleagues recently asked, “What would you say your #1 reason for success is?”

Why do people succeed?

Is it because they’re smart? Or are they just lucky?

Neither.

    I spent five years studying this very question. What I discovered is that this onion has many layers. I have codified ten rich habits that wealthy individuals possess. These “daily success habits” set successful people apart from everyone else. No one, not one person, has ever been successful on their own. The foundation of success is strong relationships. Other people make successful people successful. It can’t be done any other way, except when random luck is involved. Successful people are disciplined about the things they do every day. Their habits (relationship building is one such Rich Habit) create opportunity luck and it is this opportunity luck which creates wealth.

    I completely agree Tom. Thank you for commenting.

    Good habits serve us well and bad habits…well, they can be our undoing. But one habit that will always create both success and a happier life is building good relationships :-)
