Before trying to adopt good habits, you would rather pay attention to the bad ones you have accumulated over the years.
Filter out those habits that are not in line with your aspirations, ambitions, and goals. Make sure you do not do the things that hold you back and are not a good fit for a person you would like to be.
Here is the list of habits you should quit now in order to become a better person and achieve more:

- Do Not Be Jealous. Firstly, it is extremely meanly. Secondly, it makes you look miserable. Thirdly, this feeling has never made anybody happier, luckier or more successful. Get rid of it!
- Do Not Compare Yourself With Others. Live your own life and make sure it goes smoothly in the right direction.
- Do Not Overwork. Hard work has nothing to do with productivity. Work smarter instead of working harder.
- Do Not Be Rude. Rudeness never shows your power but rather makes you look ridiculous and silly. Impress people with your politeness and let them respect you for that.
