16 Habits of Rich People: the Keys to Success?

I have never been a fan of the ‘Rich Dad, Poor Dad’ philosophy. Further, I don’t believe that there is any easy recipe for success and am often turned off by the “Rich” tagline but I do agree with the list of 16 Rich Habits found on Success.com. At the very least, the list below provides good concepts to live by and implement in everyday life for balance and completeness:

Live within your means
Don’t gamble
Read everyday
Forget the boob tube and spend less time surfing the Internet
Control your emotions
Network and volunteer regularly
Go above and beyond in work and business
Set goals, not wishes
Avoid procrastination
Talk less and listen more
Avoid toxic people
Don’t give up
Set aside the self-limiting beliefs holding you back
Get a mentor
Eliminate “bad luck” from your vocabulary
Know your main purpose
