Sixteen years ago, I learned an important life lesson in the back of a New York City taxi.

I was on my way to Grand Central Station, and we were driving in the right lane when a black car suddenly sped out of a parking space right in front of us.

My driver hit the brakes hard, skidded, and missed the other car by a few inches. The driver of the other car, the man who had just nearly caused a huge accident, started shouting at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at him. He was really friendly!

"Why did you just do that？" I asked him. "This guy almost destroyed your car and could have sent us to the hospital!"

This was when my taxi driver told me what I now call "the Law of Garbage Trucks".

"Many people are like garbage trucks. They run around full of garbage, full of anger, and full of disappointment，" he said. "As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it, and if you let them do, they'll dump it on you. So when someone wants to dump on you, just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. You'll be happier because of what you have done. "

I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and dump it on other people—at work, at home, or on the street? It was on that day that I said, "I'm not going to dump anymore. "

Four Habits to Help You Succeed

We all want to succeed, whether it is in losing weight or learning the guitar. For those who have tried and failed, success seems difficult to understand.

•Know your values.

Finding your values is in line with creating motivation.  Pick a handful of things and write them down. Remind yourself of your values every day and reflect on whether you are honoring those values through your work.

•Pick a goal and focus on it.

Choose one goal to start something large enough that will give you a sense of achievement, while adjusting well to your values. Focus is key here.  If you perform many tasks at a time, you might never finish your projects because they will take far too long.

•Set a time for success.

Set a date for success. Know when you hope to realize your goal.  By setting a time limit, you are making the process realistic.

•

 Failure can't be avoided when you take risks. By its very definition, the desire to succeed means you are risking failure. Many people tend to give up far too early. Don't fall into this trap! Remember your mindset earlier. Know it will happen. A failure is only you working out the details, and learning what works and what doesn't. Use failure. Treat it as a good thing, and go on.

A. The more focused you are on one goal, the higher chance you have of success.

B. Make the right decision.

C. I have made a list of four habits to help you set goals and realize them.

D. Don't give up because of failure.

E. Keep it realistic, while not giving you too much time.

F. Sit and reflect on what you value most.

G. Push yourself to be courageous, and take that next step.
