Tim Ferriss Top 10 Rules For Success.

1- Have other interests.

Be proactive in all aspects of your life, not just in business. In order to find true success in life, you need to have balance. This means investing time in your relationships, your social networks and time for yourself. Meditation, sports, cooking, whatever it is, there needs to be more to your life than just “work”

2- Scratch you own itch.

Trying to be all things to all people is a fast track to nowhere. Spend your time, energy, and indeed your money, on things that matter to YOU. Doing otherwise will not bring you success or happiness!

3- Learn the art of the pitch.

It is not only important to learn how to pitch, but also when to pitch. Opportunities for huge exposure are seldom, so be prepared.

4- Focus on your strengths.

We all have our strengths, and our weaknesses. Being honest with yourself and knowing what they are will play a great role in your success. Refine and build upon your strengths, and delegate out tasks that are not your strong points.

5- Be able to sell.

Everyone in the business world sells in one way or another. It is imperative that you learn how to communicate well in order to sell what it is you are offering. Take note of the things you buy, and understand why you bought them. You can then use this as a tactic to understand your target market and how to deliver yourself to them well.

6- Ideas are worth nothing.

Executing your ideas is everything. Don’t start a business if you aren’t willing to get wildly uncomfortable on the journey to making it work. Anyone can come up with an idea. The real test lies in what you are willing to DO to create something of value in the world.

7- Pick the right things to do.

Similar to knowing your strengths, you must be able to pick and choose wisely what gets your attention, and what doesn’t. Focusing on one or two key tasks at a time makes you efficient and effective. Both of which are essential for success.

8- Be pragmatically pessimistic.

Optimism is important, especially if you are choosing to step up and back your ideas. But as a start up or a beginner in business, it is as important to know intimately in your mind all the ways in which things may not work, and be prepared for them.

9- Have a focused metric.

Data doesn’t lie. When you are starting out in business, it’s important to quickly identify what is measurable. Then you can identify your strengths and build on them.

10- Use failure to help you.

Tim’s book ‘The 4 Hour Work Week’ was rejected by 26 of 27 potential publishers. It ended up spending 4 years on the New York Times bestseller list. You WILL face failure. Where you go from those failures will determine your future. Don’t let a knock back knock you down.
