In our recent Stylish Study Show episode, Ella discussed the importance of devoting time and effort to achieve success.
You have to be determined in order to achieve success, success doesn’t happen overnight, it takes a great deal of determination and hard work to achieve success.
People may seem extremely successful but behind that success there was a lot of hard work and a lot of determination that led them to achieve what you witness today.
What you witness today is only a snapshot of what it took them to get them where they are today. You don't see the hours they spent slaving away working 20 hour days and sacrificing family, friends and free time just to achieve their success.
What is success for you?
Is it getting that dream job or running your own business?
Is success material or immaterial?
You need to focus on what success means for you, rather than what it is for others and society.
You will never feel like you were successful if you are constantly trying to achieve society’s version of success. Staying focused when things get hard and you are struggling to motivate yourself, focus on that success and how you are going to achieve that success. If you can imagine a successful future for you, when you are studying and working then trust us you will feel more motivated.
If you know you are working towards your success, that can motivate you to take a step everyday to get closer to your success
Healthy habits
Everyone talks about creating healthy habits (see our episode all about habits here) in order to achieve success.
But what does this actually mean?
Healthy habits means starting habits that can help you become healthier and more productive everyday
For example, you could not use your phone or check social media for an hour after you wake up. These small habits lead to you wasting less time and making you feel more healthy.

Have a productive week,
