Success is a habit, sure. But to develop this habit, you have to have the right mindset. You can force things and hold on to your old mindset while adopting new habits, but these eventually wear off.
Successful people do certain things consistently, and that's why they achieve a higher degree of success than most people. But there's more to it than that. It's not just a matter of doing certain things repeatedly, given certain circumstances. When you adopt these success habits without changing your mindset, you eventually end up where you began. How come? You built your new habits on a faulty mental foundation.
