Successful vs Unsuccessful People

Have you ever wondered what the difference between successful and unsuccessful people is? I’m sure you’ve seen the comparisons made lots of times in the past and truth is, many avoid the subject simply because it hits a raw nerve. You see, the majority of us want to be successful in life and crave the opportunity to set ourselves up financially. But less than 5% per cent of people actually achieve it.

Here are the differences:

1. Unsuccessful people are obsessed with ideas but never implement them. In other words, they are gripped by what is known as analysis paralysis. On the other hand, successful people are obsessed with implementation. They don’t re-invent the wheel but instead watch successful people and copy them.




2. Unsuccessful people obsess about positive thinking but fail to match it with positive action. Successful people take action to compliment their positiveness. There’s an old saying which says…”As you move, shuffle your feet!”




3. Unsuccessful people wait for the right time but it never comes. They want things to be perfect before they act. Successful people take action when the opportunity appears. There is no perfect time other than the present and they know it!




4. Unsuccessful people wait for luck to send them on their way to success and financial freedom. Successful people make their own luck and create their own circumstances in life.


5. Unsuccessful people are afraid to step up the plate. In other words, they don’t want to look silly in front of their friends and family. Successful people take risks and aren’t worried about whether they are going to look stupid in front of the people they know.


6. Unsuccessful people are easily influenced by family and friends. If they are thinking about poking their head above the crowd all it takes is one cutting comment from a family member and they go to water. Successful people push on no matter what. They surround themselves with successful people and take advice from those who are already successful. They live and die by their own convictions.


7. Unsuccessful people will always believe what they’re told. Successful people will always perform their own due diligence and conduct their own research.
