10 Principles of Famous Billionaires That You Should Adopt To Succeed In Life

What do the likes of Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates and Elon Musk have in common? Rather than focus on the moolah they rake in by the billions, they are more preoccupied with advancements in technology and health for a better quality of life for the human race. Bill Gates gives away money by the millions. This proves that money isn’t the primary focus of such men who aren’t frauds or scammers in the least. Each of them started with a dream project of their own which they worked on relentlessly till it hit gold. Today all of these men aren’t defined by the extravagance which neither of them possess rather they are defined by their modesty and the extent of their donations to charity.

Billionaires with a conscience are the men to look for inspiration

If you are aware of what’s going on in the lives of these men, you’ll know that gates were actually surprised when his company went public and turned into a billion-dollar company. He was just mad over software. Musk is forever trying to put something or the other into space, does he really need to? And Mark Zuckerberg regardless of his Billions still lives like a kid next door preferring to work in a cubicle because at Facebook, no one has a private cabin not even Zuckerberg. This is why men like these should be looked up to for inspiration and you can start by following these principles of billionaires which can change your life for the better.

1Identify a goal and formulate it correctly

Identifying a goal, planning it and pursuing it even in the midst of challenges and chaos keeps you motivated and alive. Such a strategy influences the correct decisions if anything goes wrong. Take Steve Jobs, he didn’t want to invent a phone as a communication device, he wanted to put a computer in the palm of one’s hand. He redefined the conventional walkman and put 500 songs in a youngsters pocket in the shape of the iPod.

Saying you want to bake cakes for the money is wrong but aspiring to succeed as a name with your own bakery brand where your cakes will be sold, that is the idea, to formulate an identity that sets you on a continuous path for improvisation and success.

2Make a plan but follow it

When Elon Musk drew up his ambitious plans of space travel, he didn’t purchase a rocket from some other technology manufacturer, he found ways and means to revolutionize the cost of space travel where his latest rocket the falcon heavy isn’t just the worlds heaviest rocket capable of carrying loads heavier than usual, it has cut down the costs of satellite launching to a drastic extent. For Musk, it isn’t the destination that counts; it is the means that will get you to the destination that is important.

Planning both long and short-term goals will help you identify your weaknesses and strengths along your journey where you may find likeminded people that will create even better opportunities to reach your goals.

3Never limit or hold yourself back

Emotional intelligence is when you do not surpass yourself but know when and where to display your emotions. This helps to achieve success and be more in control of yourself. Suppressing your emotions can impact your well being and be bad for your emotional and physical health.
