5 Bad Habits All Successful Millennials Don’t Do
Successful Millennials aren’t like their friends.
Their friends have different habits, live different lives, and somehow find themselves repeating the same words every New Year’s Eve: “This year is going to be different.”
The successful ones, on the other hand, spend a lot less time talking and a lot more time doing. They aren’t as concerned with the perception of being seen as successful, as much as they are worried about getting time to do the work they know needs to get done.
If you’re a Millennial, do you know if you’re on the path to success?
If you are, then you probably don’t do these 5 things (that friends do all the time):
1. You don’t keep your phone on you all day long.
Successful Millennials are not reachable all hours of the day.
They know their phones can be a tremendous distraction, and go to great lengths to protect their time and focus. Most successful Millennials have a habit of keeping their phone on silent and only checking it as needed. Others actually block out time in their days to respond to text messages and emails — and the rest of the time, do everything in their power to stay focused on the task at hand.
