In this article on EKO HOT BLOG, we would be looking at some habits that can hinder a person from achieving success in life.

1. Procrastination/ waiting for the perfect time.

Trust me – there is never a perfect time to start a business or to pursue your dream than now. The idea of waiting for the perfect time or making several procrastinations can be detrimental and can amount to delay. Studies have shown that most people end up not fulfilling their dreams because of the mentality of waiting for the perfect time; which may never come.

2. Giving up too easily/ lacking the fighting spirit

Whether you like it or not – there will be times when things won’t go as you would expect, especially when pursuing your dreams. When that time comes, it takes patience, consistency, determination and hard work to prevail. Giving up your dream due to an economic, emotional or financial challenge is an act of cowardice that can hinder one from succeeding. Trust me – everyone has faced a challenge at one time or the other, even the successful people you admire today.

3. Giving excuses for failures or inadequacies

At some point in your life, you might experience failure in one area or the other, but using that as an excuse not to push further will amount to real failure. Every business, career or profession has its difficult moments, but having the attitude to prevail regardless of your shortcomings is a positive mentality that is needed for achieving success.

4. Having a “know-it-all” mentality

If you must succeed in whatever niche or part of life you must have chosen, it becomes important to understand that there is still more to learn in that area. Having the ‘know-it-all mindset’ will limit you from learning from people and materials that will be of help to you. This mentality can also be related to pride and can make a person achieve little or nothing.

5. Clinging to your comfort zone.

The practice of clinging to your comfort zone and seeing no need to advance in your career or skill is an attitude that can drastically hinder one’s growth and success.
