6Investing your first 5 minutes a day reading and sharpening your skills can put you on the fast track to success in your life and business. Many masters and experts have shared their wisdom through words. Learning from these experienced leaders by reading their words is how you, too, can achieve personal and professional transformation. Success is achieved by getting into action immediately and applying the principles learned. Applied knowledge leads to success.

That is the beauty of author and top-performing agent Karen Briscoe s Real Estate Success in 5 Minutes a Day. You truly only have to invest five minutes a day to achieve amazing results.

One of the easiest ways to develop a new habit is to attach it to an existing habit. The new activity is particularly sticky when combined with one you enjoy. So pair your inspirational reading for the day with your morning cup of tea or coffee. By combining a new behavior with an already established habit, the established habit becomes the reminder. You don t even have to think about it. The new habit becomes effortless, as there is the automatic reward associated with it.

Make the decision now to become a lifelong learner and you will become one. Commit to the habit of reading one of the 365 daily chapters first thing every morning. And then identify one new concept to apply in your life and business.

Success thinking, combined with success activities and success vision, creates a sweet life that truly will transform your life.
