Things in life that don’t really matter To Be Successful

Successful people are more focused on solving the problem by creating inspired ideas and this is what they talk about. According to author Francis Chan, “Our greatest fear should not be of failure, but of succeeding at things in life that don’t really matter.”

5 Ways To Entertain Yourself On Your Smartphone

 

To be successful in life Decide exactly what you want and where you want to go. Set a deadline and make a plan to get there. Take action on your plan; do something every day to move toward your goal. Resolve in advance that you will persist until you succeed, that you will never, ever give up.

Here are things in life that don’t really matter.

1. Living up to Unrealistic Expectations

“Unrealistic expectations are potentially damaging because they set us and others up for failure,” said Selena C. Snow, Ph. D, a clinical psychologist in Rockville, Md.

Avoid unrealistic expectations. Sometimes they are external, such as from a parent or a spouse, and sometimes they come from within. In either case, do not waste energy trying to live up to something you are not.

These tips can help.
  • Remember: You can only control yourself. When setting an expectation, it can help to first ask yourself whether you actually have any control over the situation.
  • Know your limits.
  • Share your expectations.
  • Keep a flexible mindset.

2. Fear of Failure

The fear of failure doesn’t allow you to try new things, to take on new challenges, or to expose yourself to new situations. If you’ve ever failed at something and wound up feeling humiliated or upset, these emotions may have stayed with you far beyond the initial incident.

Here are four steps you can take:

  1. Redefine failure.
  2. Set approach goals (not avoidance goals).
  3. Create a “fear list.” Author and investor Tim Ferriss recommends “fear-setting,” creating a checklist of what you are afraid to do and what you fear will happen if you do it.
  4. Focus on learning.

3. Sports Results

Sports are wonderful means of entertainment. However, taking someone else’s success story and somehow making it our own leaves us with little to show for it. Michael Jordan won a lot of championships and it sure was fun watching him do it. But the rings are on his fingers, not ours, so strive to be a champion in your own world.

4. Revenge

Spend your life constructing something positive. The harsh reality is that when people wrong us and we have a hard time forgiving them, we are merely hurting ourselves more, and our actions will inevitably drag.

5. Comparing yourself with others

When we compare ourselves to others, we’re often comparing their best features against our average ones. It’s like being right-handed and trying to play an instrument with your left hand. Not only do we naturally want to be better than them, the unconscious realization that we are not often becomes self-destructive.

You’re more inclined to feel inferior if you compare yourself to others. Rather than comparing yourself to others, concentrate on how you can improve yourself or your position to feel more in control.

6. Holding on to anger and resentment

“Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die,” Malachy McCourt said. If you hold on to your wrath and bitterness, you will steadily destroy your life. Rather than holding on to your anger, choose healthy outlets to help you cope with it and go on with your life.

Here are 5 steps to release and let go of resentment:
  1. Acknowledge Resentment.
  2. Identify Where You Have Power.
  3. Take Action Where You Have Power.
  4. Release Anything Over Which You Don’t Have Power.
  5. Make Gratitude a Daily Habit.
  6. “Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die.
