One Key Principle To Win In Life

A secret that all winners know.

Lately I’ve been thinking about what it is that determines whether or not a man achieves his goals. I’ve been on the self-improvement path for nearly a decade now, and during that time I’ve read hundreds of books, watched thousands of videos, listened to hundreds of podcasts, and talked to dozens of successful men, in an effort to learn from them, and understand what makes them different from the masses of men that never accomplish what they want to accomplish. It’s come to a point where I’m now refusing to consume information, as my mind is pretty much overloaded with the endless stream of resources it has consumed over the past 9 years. Which is why I’m now focusing on creating, and pouring that content back out into the world, organized, distilled, and filtered. That’s not important to this article though.

The point is that I’ve been looking for answers for a long time, trying to understand what makes a man different, and what are those traits, characteristics and principles that have a significant impact on whether or not he accomplishes his goals.

The other week I was pondering on this, and came to a very clear realization, about one specific principle that all successful men I’ve ever come across live by. It’s something that all winners have in common, and it reflects as a character trait that all but ensures that they accomplish their goals. And without it, it’s difficult to get anywhere meaningful.

I want to keep this article extremely applicable, so I’ll get right to it. The principle I’m talking about is that of inertia. But not in the way you are thinking.
