Hi guys! You have seen many people who are highly efficient and doing very well in their field with happiness. However, some people are hard workers but they are unable to achieve high performance and best results, as a consequence, they feel bad and low in their life. The reason for their failure is not to maintain peak performance for the long term. Many life counselors did research to find the reason for failure and solutions to maintain this high performance.
Here I will throw a light on some most important habits which may help you to become a high performer and to achieve long-lasting success.
- Raise Necessity: “Necessity” is the most powerful key to innovate new things and revolution. It assists us to take action in the right direction and keep us motivated to achieve our goals. High-performers work for long hours because they take their work as an important necessity and there is no in procrastinating. If you wanna become a high performer you should follow these 4 things:
- Identity: Make your identity to face the hard challenges. Many best performers chose to achieve the most difficult goals and the result was they performed best to achieve their big goals. If you settle down your mentality to achieve easy goals, then you will never ever get success in life.
- Obsession: Every highly successful man is highly obsessed with goals. This obsession makes them highly curious to learn new things and they never give up.
- Sense of duty: TAKE YOUR GOAL AS SENSE OF DUTY. Every powerful team leader takes full responsibility for their team’s actions and when he achieves those goals in teamwork, feels great for his accomplishment.
- Fix a deadline: Fix a deadline to accomplish your goal. Break that deadline by facing real consequences, you will find your best performance.
2. Look for clarity: Sometimes, you feel that you are not satisfied even after achieving many great things in your life. The most crucial part of life is seeking CLARITY. It helps you to grow more and long term satisfaction with your actions. Every best performer people follow these 4 things to seek clarity:
- Self-analysis: They analyze themselves by observing their strengths, weaknesses as well as future self-envision. This action helps them transform into better than before.
- Learning new skills: Every high-performer is an expert in their field because they continuously learn new skills which makes them better in their field of interest. You can also build this habit by writing down the details of skills that make you better in your field and learning those skills. You can also figure out how you can implement those new skills in raising up your business.
- Service: Analyze How your work contributes to the world/country. How impactful on others’ lives?
3. Increase productivity:
Geniuses are high performers, because they focus on achieving high productivity rather than creating perfection.
Once a university professor did an experiment with two groups of students. To the first group, he was asked to click a perfect picture and submit it at the end of the month, and to the second group, he was assigned to click a number of photos and submit the best photo out of all at the end of the month. The second group performed excellently by clicking better photos in more numbers compared to the first one.
You can increase productivity by breaking down your task into 5 steps:
- Identify your goal (e.g., Finish book writing)
- Define task (e.g., Publish book)
- Develop a plan (e.g., promote on social media and email to people to sell)
- Execute your vision (e.g., web page design and offer free of your book)
- Exact deadline (e.g., best-selling book in 2 months)
4. Retain Energy:
High-performer people are highly energetic, passionate, motivated, and have high stamina to do things. You have seen many successful people highly energetic even after doing a bunch of work. Physical exercise and a healthy diet help in maintaining high energy.
People with low energy are less efficient and less confident.
According to a survey, one-third of the US population suffers from obesity. 80% of the people are not into physical activities and 42% of people have stressful
lives due to lack of physical activities.
When you do multiple tasks in a day, you feel that you are not doing all with the same efficiency. During the transition from one task to another, you can do one practice, “Release tension and set intention”. Yes, before starting the second work, take a pause, close your eyes, take a long breath, and release your tension. After That, decide what right energy (positive/high/low) is required for your next work and then fix the mindset accordingly, and finally act on it. This will help you in retaining the energy for all tasks.
5. Develop influence:
Successful people show their high performance by accepting hard challenges. They treat others with respect and influence them to grow by accepting those challenges.
“Stay with the people who positively influence you”.
6. Sustainability in success:
Many successful people feel that they are not satisfied with their success, their success is short-lived. To maintain sustainability in success and feel long-lived happiness you should do these things:
- Prioritize your sustainability (Focus on one thing).
- Focus on investing in yourself (learn new skills, build confidence).
- Maintain relationships (with family, friends, and work colleagues).
- Philanthropy (It helps to maintain kindness as well as constant happiness).
