A Practical Routine for Achieving Success
Welcome back to our SUCCESS 101 weekly blog series!
Success is not a one-time event but a series of actions and habits cultivated daily. As we journey through our SUCCESS 101 series, we focus on taking the steps that build self-belief, visualising success, and improving 1% each day.
This week, we’ll dive into the practical routine of success using insights from Rich Habits by Thomas C. Corley, actionable principles from our previous blogs, and Wallace D. Wattles' concept of 'Efficient Action.'
- The key to successful leadership today is influence, not authority -
Let’s break it down into an easy-to-follow routine, so you can take tangible action towards your goals:
Step 1: Start with Self-Belief and Vision
The first step in any routine is to believe in yourself. As discussed in The 1% Rule of Success, having a strong belief in your abilities and vision is the foundation of success. Without self-belief, even the best strategies won’t take flight.
- Practical Action: Spend 5-10 minutes every morning affirming your self-worth and reflecting on your vision. Write down your goals as if they’ve already been achieved. This sets your subconscious mind into motion, allowing you to make decisions based on your desired outcomes rather than fear or doubt.
Step 2: Practice Rich Habits Daily
In Rich Habits, Thomas C. Corley identifies the daily habits of wealthy individuals. These habits aren’t just about financial success but encompass personal development, mindset, and overall well-being. Here’s how you can integrate them into your routine:
Daily Reading: Wealthy individuals read for at least 30 minutes each day. This could be books, articles, or personal growth content that aligns with your goals.
-
- Practical Action: Dedicate 30 minutes each morning or evening to reading. Select content that educates you and aligns with your personal or professional aspirations.
Networking: Wealthy people spend time networking with like-minded, successful individuals.
-
- Practical Action: Take time each week to connect with individuals who inspire you. Reach out for conversations that spark new ideas, feedback, or collaborations.

Healthy Habits: Physical health is a crucial element in success. Wealthy people often engage in regular exercise, eating healthy, and focusing on well-being.
-
- Practical Action: Include 30 minutes of exercise each day—whether it’s a morning walk, gym session, or yoga. The goal is to improve focus and energy for the day ahead.
Step 3: Apply the Power of Visualisation
As we’ve discussed in previous blogs, visualising success is one of the most powerful tools to manifest your dreams. This process primes your mind to take the necessary actions and recognise opportunities that align with your goals.
- Practical Action: Before diving into your day, spend a few minutes visualising your success. Picture yourself completing your goals, experiencing success, and feeling the emotions associated with it. The clearer the picture, the more real it will feel, prompting action in line with that success.
Step 4: Focus on 1% Improvement
We’ve also discussed the concept of improving just 1% every day. This compounding growth might seem small at first but adds up to huge results over time. Successful people focus on continuous improvement, seeking ways to be better than they were yesterday.
- Practical Action: Identify one area in your life where you can improve by 1% today. Whether it's improving a skill, expanding knowledge, or boosting productivity, commit to a small action that helps you grow. Tracking your progress helps you stay accountable.
Step 5: Efficient Action
In The Science of Getting Rich, Wallace D. Wattles emphasises the importance of efficient action. He advocates for focusing on what you’re doing now rather than worrying about future possibilities. Efficiency means doing the right things at the right time, rather than being busy without achieving meaningful results.
- Practical Action: Each day, before starting your tasks, identify the one most important task that will move you closer to your goals. This is your highest-priority task, and it deserves your full attention. Prioritise this task over others, and give it your focused energy.
- Eliminate distractions that prevent you from being efficient. Create a work environment conducive to productivity, whether it's reducing digital distractions or clearing your workspace.
Step 6: Track Your Progress
Regularly evaluating where you stand is essential. It’s not enough to just take action; you must track your progress and adjust your course if needed.
- Practical Action: At the end of each week, reflect on your progress. What steps did you take towards your goals? What worked well? What can you improve? Tracking keeps you aligned with your vision and ensures you're taking actions that matter.
- What gets measured gets improved -
The Power of Consistency
Success isn’t about hitting it big overnight. It’s the daily actions compounded over time that lead to extraordinary results. By implementing the habits of successful people, applying efficient action, and focusing on small improvements, you’re not just aiming for success—you’re creating it.
Remember, as we discussed in Every Day I Become 1% Better, the key to real transformation is consistency. It’s the compounding effect of your habits, actions, and beliefs that will carry you forward. Stick with this routine, stay adaptable, and trust the process.
