13 daily habits that helped build a nine-figure company

Executive overview

Most high achievers share a small set of repeatable habits — not motivation or talent. The hard part is building the habits, not knowing what they are.

The habits that compound are the ones you do automatically, not the ones you intend to do.

The 13 habits

1. Constant dissatisfaction — always ask "how could this be better?" Write down one improvement daily.
2. Clear goals with deadlines — not "grow my YouTube" but "250k subscribers by year end." Apply this to everything, not just annual goals.
3. Weekly planning + review + accountability buddy — schedule the week intentionally, review every Sunday via email to a partner, plan the next week.
4. Quarterly feedback (T3 B3) — ask one person: top 3 things I do well, bottom 3 to improve. Schedule it in the calendar so it's automatic.
5. Daytime and nighttime books — keep a physical book on the kitchen table (daytime) and one on the nightstand (nighttime). Visibility drives the habit.
6. Follow through when no one's watching — the moment you start negotiating with yourself, that's the habit to break. Commitments are non-negotiable.
7. Track finances monthly — assets minus liabilities = net worth. Review on the first of every month. What you track grows.
8. Prioritise meetings with interesting people — maintain a "52 weeks of people" list; reach out regularly. Compliment someone weekly as an entry point.
9. Make lists and follow through — a 6-8-21 list each morning: the most important things for the day. Completing it builds confidence.
10. Exercise — start with five minutes. Physical hard things train the belief that you can do hard things generally.
11. Constant learning — the most successful people are still taking courses and reading. Find something you're genuinely curious about and go one level deeper.
12. Say no more — saying no to low-value meetings, calls, and emails is how you protect focus on what matters.
13. Scheduled silence — no podcasts, music, or calls during walks or drives. Quiet surfaces creativity you can't get from any book.

Building any habit: the law of 100

• Commit to 100 repetitions of something — 100 days, 100 videos, 100 workouts.
• Small daily reps compound; two years of weekly videos = a successful channel.
• Make the habit frictionless: attach it to something you already do.
