According to Tom Corley, Filter Your Emotions is one of the habits, to which the most successful people in the world stick.

Devote Time to Something that Educates You
The reason why rich people are rich and successful lies in personal development, which is free off boob tube, constant surfing the Internet, gossiping or complaining. In his book, Tom Corley considers watching TV as a “poverty habit”, on the opposite, reading books, watching TED Talks, listening Podcasts are believed to be the habits of the rich. To get closer to the millionaire status, one has to replace time wasted on reality shows by self-education. The results will be inspiring.
Do What Makes You Happy
The difference between the poor and the rich is determined by one more crucial fact. Poor people do what they have to in order to earn for living and to make ends meet. They consider their dreams to be unattainable. On the contrary, rich people devote themselves to what they feel passionate about, what they are obsessed with, turning their dreams into reality.
