What distinguishes rich people from poor people is not only the amount of income, but also their lifestyle.
Wealthy people have a clear daily routine
According to statistics, the rich plan their schedule in advance and try to stick to it. Among the low-income population, only 9 percent make plans for the day.
Half of millionaires get up at dawn, devoting their morning time to sports, self-development, personal matters. All this fits into the hours before the start of the working day. The poor are unlikely to have such a habit, as evidenced by the figure of 3 percent of "larks".
Wealthy people set goals, poor people don’t bother with this.
Taking care of your health
Wealthy individuals meticulously monitor their health, exercise regularly, and eat healthy food. Sports help them keep their bodies in good shape, having a beneficial effect on brain function.
Low-income groups devote much less time to physical activity.
Development, self-education
88 percent of rich people devote 30 minutes or more to reading every day. Among the poor, this figure is 2 percent, but they more than “compensate” for it by watching TV.
Research has shown that people who read five hours a week automatically develop, accumulating memory and other important brain functions, receiving and analyzing new information from books.
There is a formula for success - the five-hour education rule.
If you spend 5 hours on your development through useful literature, then success is guaranteed.
But it should be taken into account that one needs to study those areas that are interesting to a person, since interest cannot be awakened by force.
Many of the world's billionaires are confident that success can be achieved by devoting time only to what you love, including studying it.
Transfer of valuables to heirs
Successful people instill values in their children, for example, by teaching them to read and help others from childhood. Volunteering is very common among successful businessmen – about 70 percent of the rich do it for 10 hours a week.
The offspring of poor citizens engage in such things only in 3 percent of cases.
Developing healthy habits
Successful people believe that habits shape character. It is good habits that help overcome life's obstacles when willpower is lacking.
Psychologists confirm the fact that 40 percent of decisions are made by people "out of habit", without analysis. Decisions are formed automatically based on useful and unhelpful habits.
Surveys of wealthy people show that they agree with the statement that habits play an important role in an individual's life and in the formation of a person's character.
The number of rich people who agree is 84 percent.
Insolvent people agree with this statement much less often – the figure for respondents is only 4 percent.
When trying to derive a working formula for success that can be applied to any person, it should be remembered that a person's habits or actions alone do not guarantee success. Success has many components.
Some of them are completely beyond rational analysis. They are about luck, gut instinct, being in the right place at the right time, an intuition of possibilities.
Trusting yourself and your feelings plays a significant role in success. Many rich people "consult" with their inner voice when making a special decision. The poor consider such an approach stupid.
Looking at the survey statistics as a whole, it is noticeable that among the low-income population there is a small percentage who devote time to self-education, sports, reading, studying new areas, but at the same time do not have a billion-dollar income.
Therefore, you should not completely copy the lifestyle of rich people, but listening to their rules will be useful.
