Stop doing these things if you want to be successful:
1. Running from problems
2. Cursing the darkness
3. Lying to yourself
4. Fear
It is human nature to feel fear, and most of us tend to fear what we don't understand. If you can understand your fears, you can free yourself from them.
5. Negativity
6. The word impossible
7. Winging it
8. Cynicism
9. Distraction
10. Selfishness
A truly successful life is made of giving, sharing, and praise, not taking, demanding, and criticizing.
11. Overthinking
12. Hoarding
Any form of hoarding is unhealthy and wastes your time, whether it's possessions, information, wisdom, or emotion.
13. Denial
14. Criticism
15. Comparison
