Today, we are going to learn about 12 shocking habits of successful people. Now, let's begin.
1. Opportunity Costs Successful people carefully pick and choose their priorities. They have a lot of responsibilities on their plates, but they only have so much time and energy to invest.

An opportunity cost is the price you pay for investing time and effort into one activity instead of another.
For example, if you spend 8 hours every day at a job you dislike, you're sacrificing time you could have spent pursuing a more constructive goal.
To be a successful person, you must be willing to sacrifice short-term comforts and responsibilities to better invest in long-term goals. In other words, be willing to fail at some things to excel at others.

Because underestimating your potential forces you to work twice as hard and twice as long to achieve the same result.
For example, let's say you're starting a company, and you're selling a product you think everyone in the world will buy.
