The Right Stuff: Top Traits of Incredibly Successful People

Overachievers. Self-made billionaires. World leaders.

What do they have that you don’t?

Sure, they have money and power, and they’ve achieved the pinnacle of success in their chosen field. But are they somehow inherently better than you?

No way!

In fact, many of the qualities shared by incredibly successful people can be acquired (with discipline and hard work, of course). But which traits comprise “the right stuff” – and can help you achieve anything you set your mind to?

Here are a few of the top traits high performers share:

They create brilliant rituals.

High achievers practice habits which match their focus and energy level to the importance of the task at hand. In this post, we share rituals successful people follow to maximize their performance (hint: put their habits to work for you!).

They conquer their fear of failure.

Successful individuals realize that fear is often more imagined than real, and that the likely rewards are far greater than the potential consequences of failure. It’s not that they don’t experience fear (they do); it’s just that they refuse to let that fear paralyze them. The next time you’re tempted to shy away from a calculated risk, ask yourself this question: “What’s the worst that could happen?”

They are emotionally intelligent.

EQ is a unique kind of intelligence that combines self-awareness with awareness of others. It’s what enables high achievers to: identify and manage their emotions: while recognizing emotion in others and understand their behavior better; and respond effectively in wide range of situations (both good and bad).

They prioritize strategically.

Incredibly successful people steer their ship – and don’t let it steer them. Despite having the same 24 hours in a day as everyone else, they’re able to decide what’s critical, what’s important and what can wait, and then create a clear plan for getting it all done.

They refuse to stagnate.

High performers succeed because they realize that there’s always more to learn. They embrace change; they’re endlessly curious; they seek new experiences; and they are always on the hunt for better ways to get things done.
