8 THINGS SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE DON'T DO | TERRI SAVELLE FOY

In this video, Terri Savelle Foy discusses 8 things successful people don't do to help viewers avoid common pitfalls and achieve their goals (0:06).

Here's a summary of the key points:

Don't live in the past (0:58): Successful individuals let go of shame, regret, and past seasons. Forgiveness is key to moving forward, as holding onto the past prevents embracing the future (1:09-1:54).

Don't let your environment dictate your future (2:03): While your current environment may reflect your history, it shouldn't determine your destiny. Decluttering and designing your environment for your dreams can lead to a more peaceful mind and increased productivity (2:08-2:52).

Don't wait for motivation (2:55): Action is the starting point, not motivation. Discipline comes from motion and deciding to act, rather than waiting to feel like it (2:59-4:39).

Don't blame your circumstances (4:44): Blame keeps you stuck, while taking responsibility sets you free. Successful people take ownership of their lives regardless of past difficulties (4:49-6:14).

Don't hang on to small thinking (7:02): Dreaming small doesn't honor God or challenge faith. Successful people stretch their vision to match their destiny, planning based on who they are becoming, not their current circumstances or past mistakes (7:05-9:06).

Don't keep toxic relationships (9:29): Negative people can drain you and hinder your progress. Successful individuals learn to love toxic individuals from a distance to protect their calling and make room for growth (9:35-11:33).

Don't wing it (11:40): Successful people plan for success through goals, routines, vision boards, and daily schedules. Structure creates freedom and helps avoid feeling scattered or unproductive (11:43-13:07).

Don't ignore your calling (13:31): Success is about doing what you were called to do. Even when feeling unqualified or afraid, saying "yes" to your assignment opens the door to purpose, peace, and impact (13:36-15:08).
