The world's most successful entrepreneurs all follow a similar daily routine that includes
0:12
early wake-up calls, plenty of exercise and a good work-life balance. So, if you want to follow in the footsteps of the likes of Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and
0:22
Tim Cook, keep watching to find out which daily habits they practice and how you can
0:26
add them to your routine. Here are 8 life-changing habits. Number 1
0:32
Wake up early Learning to be an early riser can be challenging
0:35
but it's an essential step to take to get the most out of your day
0:39
Celebrity entrepreneur Richard Branson is renowned for his 5am wake-up call, which gives
0:44
him enough time to exercise, spend time with his loved ones and prepare for his day ahead
0:49
Number 2. Map out your day Once you're up and ready, you should note
0:53
down what you want to achieve from your day. This can include personal errands and big business meetings
0:59
Just make sure you use a system that's good for you, whether it's pen and paper or a
1:03
high-tech organization app. Step 3. Exercise It's extremely easy to put exercise on the
1:09
back burner, but this is an essential habit that greatly affects your well-being
1:14
By working out for just 30 minutes a day, you'll keep a healthy mind, which in turn
1:19
will allow you to be more alert, creative and productive. Number 4
1:24
Read industry news Successful people never settle with what they know. They are always on the horizon to expand their knowledge and stay up to date with industry news
1:34
Self-made billionaire Warren Buffett says that reading has been the most crucial habit
1:38
he's developed, so if it's worked for him, it will definitely work for you too
1:43
Number 5. Take risks In order to achieve great success, you'll usually need to take a handful of risks
1:50
Whether it's following your passion and starting your own business, or investing in
1:53
an idea that could do great or fail, all great entrepreneurs have to take a risk at some
1:58
point in their life, and for most, it has certainly paid off
2:02
Number 6. Identify your own goals Identifying your own goals will allow you
2:07
to achieve the success that you deserve. Let's say you have a side gig
2:12
Turning it into a full-time job could be the end goal for you. So to allow you to get to that level, you should identify your goal and deprioritize
2:20
anything that's not important. Number 7. Get enough sleep Getting an early night is a vital secret to
2:27
success that many professionals overlook. Without regular sleep, you will end up feeling sluggish and will, ultimately, be less productive
2:36
So to ensure your fighting fit, get between 6 to 8 hours rest per night
2:41
Number 8. Meditate Taking care of your mental well-being is important and a great way to remain calm and sane is to practice meditation on a daily basis
2:50
While there are many forms of meditation, you need to find one that works for you
2:55
For example, Oprah Winfrey and Lady Gaga both swear by transcendental meditation
3:00
That said, if you're unsure of the right meditation for you, you could invest in an
3:04
app like Headspace which offers different types of meditation. So now you're well-equipped with the best habits to adopt to achieve great success
