Are you a happy person? How often do you think of reasons why everyone around you is successful though they are not better than you in general? What do you do wrong? Here are some things you should stop doing to be successful.
1．__1__

2．Do not believe anything without questioning it.
__3__ They are critical thinkers, and they understand that we all are ruled by our prejudices, so they will always question new information.

4．Do not care about what other people think of you.
__5__ Your attempts to become “good” for everyone will turn into nothing but new worries, stresses, and problems. Successful people do not concentrate on the quantity of people to please, but worry about their quality and focus on developing friendships with people they really care about.
