EP#99 The 7 Daily Habits of High Achievers: What’s Their Secret?
Shaunie Sanders
Success isn't magic; it's daily habits
Ever wonder what separates the most successful people from the rest? In the latest episode of Girl Take Note, host Shaunie dives deep into the daily habits of high achievers and reveals how you can apply them to your own life.
From waking up early to embracing continuous learning, the habits of high achievers aren’t just about luck—they’re intentional, disciplined, and totally doable with the right mindset. Here's a quick breakdown of what Shaunie covers and how you can start leveling up today:
1. Wake Up Early: Start the Day Right
High achievers don’t hit the snooze button. They understand that how you begin your day can set the tone for the rest of it. Waking up early gives them extra time to focus on personal growth, fitness, or planning for the day ahead.
Tip from Shaunie: Start by waking up just 15 minutes earlier than usual and gradually work your way up. Use that extra time to meditate, journal, or get a head start on your to-do list.
2. Consistent Goal Setting
Setting goals isn’t a one-and-done deal. High achievers continuously refine their goals, making sure they’re aligned with their values and long-term vision. They break their big dreams into smaller, manageable steps and track their progress daily.
Tip from Shaunie: Take 5 minutes at the end of each day to review your goals and note any progress. Celebrate the small wins!
3. Continuous Learning: Never Stop Growing
The most successful people are lifelong learners. They feed their curiosity and stay up-to-date with trends in their industry by reading, listening to podcasts, or attending workshops.
Tip from Shaunie: Commit to reading 10 pages of a book or listening to a podcast episode each day. Knowledge is power!
4. Prioritize Health and Fitness
High achievers know that their body is their greatest asset. Regular exercise, proper nutrition, and sufficient sleep are all part of their daily routine. After all, it’s hard to chase your dreams when you’re running on empty.
Tip from Shaunie: Make it a point to move your body for at least 30 minutes a day—whether it’s a brisk walk, yoga, or a quick workout.
5. Practice Gratitude: The Key to Positivity
Gratitude isn’t just a feel-good buzzword; it’s a game-changer for success. High achievers often start or end their day by acknowledging what they’re grateful for, keeping them grounded and focused on the positive.
Tip from Shaunie: Write down three things you’re grateful for every morning. You’ll be amazed at how this simple habit shifts your perspective.
6. Build a Strong Network
No one becomes successful alone. High achievers are intentional about surrounding themselves with inspiring and supportive people. They invest in relationships and actively seek mentors or peers who can help them grow.
Tip from Shaunie: Schedule regular coffee chats with colleagues or attend networking events to expand your circle.
7. Take Time for Reflection
Successful people are self-aware, and they carve out time for reflection. Whether it’s through journaling, meditation, or simply taking a walk, reflecting on their progress helps them course-correct and stay on track.
Tip from Shaunie: Spend 10 minutes at the end of each day reflecting on what went well and what could be improved.
Wrapping It Up: Success is a Journey
As Shaunie highlights throughout this episode, success isn’t about talent alone—it’s about intentional habits. By adopting even just a few of these practices, you can start to see major shifts in your personal and professional life. Remember, it’s all about consistency, patience, and making small changes that add up over time.
