What do the world’s most successful people all have in common?
By examining the work habits of over 150 greatest writers and artists and scientists, the researchers including Standford Professor Jeffrey Pfeffer found that high achievers like Robert Moses turn out to be all alike:
Busy ! Busy!
In a study of general managers in industry, JohnKotter reported that many of them worked 60 to 65 hours per week—which translates into at least six 10-hour days. The ability and willingness to workdifficult and tiring hours has characterized many powerful figures. Energy andstrength provide many advantages to those seeking to build power.
Just Say No!
The difference between successful peopleand very successful people is that very successful people say “no” to almost everything. And that’s what gives them the time to accomplish so much. And focus means saying “no” to a lot ofdistractions (分神).
Know What You Are!
Ignore your weakness and keep improvingyour strengths. Don’t waste time exploring skill areas where you have littlecompetence. Instead, focus on—and build on—your strengths.
Create Good Luck!
Luck is not magical—there is a scienceto it. Richard Wiseman studied lucky people for his book Luck Factor, and brokedown what they do right. By being more outgoing, open to new ideas,following the feeling that something is true, being optimistic, lucky peoplecreate possibilities.
Does applying these principles to yourlife actually work? Wiseman created a “l(fā)uck school” to test the ideas—and itwas a success. In total, 80 percent of people who attended Luck School said that their luck had increased.
A. Spend enough time to improve yourweakness.
B. Achievement requires focus.
C. On average, these people reportedthat their luck had increased by more than 40 percent.
