Things You Should Stop Doing to Be Successful

Are you a happy person? How often do you think of reasons why everyone around you is success-ful though they are not better than you in general? What do you do wrong? Here are some things you should stop doing to be successful.

1.   36  Different people may interpret “success” in different ways： some of them measure it in money, other ones — in positive changes to people around them and the world in general.   37   Don’t worry about what other people think but come after what makes you happy.

2.Do not believe anything without questioning it.

38    They are critical thinkers, and they understand that we all are ruled by our prejudices, so they will always question new information.

3.Do not worry about all unpredictable things that may happen to you.

If you want to be successful, stop thinking about everything that MAY happen to you.   39    Be ready to improve and change your deeds and decisions when things suddenly don’t go according to your plan.

4.Do not care about what other people think of you.

40    Your attempts to become “good” for everyone will turn into nothing but new worries, stresses, and problems. Successful people do not concentrate on the quantity of people to please, but worry about their quality and focus on developing friendships with people they really care about.

A.Do not wait for the “right time” to do anything.

B.Do not let others decide what “success” is for you.

C.Successful people do not just accept any new information to be true.

D.As far as we all know, it’s impossible to please all the people who surround us.

E.Try to feel comfortable with the reality and accept the fact your future can’t be predicted.

F.If you want to be successful, do not let others force their interpretation of success on you.

G.Successful people never ignore or avoid problems，no matter how big and awful they seem.
