According to human development expert Ibrahim Al-Fiqi, if you want to shape your future, you must first thank God for everything He gifted you with.

Tip 1: Think of the purpose behind everything you do. For example, think of the reason of your existence or why you want to work. This is because if you know the reason behind doing something, a desire is born with feelings that drive actions.

Tip 2: Writing a specific goal is 50 percent of achieving it. This is because the center of concentration in the human brain is between a person's eyebrow, according to science.

So, every time someone writes something, he focuses on one point, which is on what he is  writing, using both the right and the left hemispheres of his brain. He also reacts using his facial expressions and moving parts of his body. This is the 50 percent of achieving an aim as this process makes the aim enter your nervous system with maximum concentration.

Tip 3: Be a flexible person, because if you become one, you will have more control over your life and will be able to achieve your goals this way. Always seek the easy way out of a problem whenever possible. Why climb a mountain on foot when you can take a teleferique.

Tip 4: Getting enough rest helps in success and is an achievement in itself.

In addition to this, high activity is built on resting well, and you don't get a good night's  sleep without doing a lot of activities and exercises during the day. So activity and rest complete each other.

Tip 5: you should act on achieving your goal with determination approach. Sometimes when we are determined to achieve goals, distraction may occur because of the appearance of other priorities in life which could lead a person to stop working for his aim. This is where the role of discipline comes in. This means to work on achieving your goal no matter what happens. Start by doing small but regular tasks, and gradually work on more missions until you achieve your goal.

On the other hand, Brian Tracy, human development expert, lists some habits that successful people do on a daily basis.

Tip 6: Create good habits and make them lead you instead of letting bad habits lead your life. Good habits are hard to develop but are easy to live with as opposed to bad habits.

Tip 7: Tracy adds that one of the turning points in his life and his career in the field of psychology was discovering that bad habits could be created and that people can get rid of them.

In fact, you don't get rid of a bad habit; instead, you just replace it with a good one and you go on repeating it as this habit becomes more effective.

Tip 8 :" Develop the habit of setting daily objectives," says Tracy. This means before going to bed, you should think of the objectives for the next day as well as jotting them down in the form of a list.

Moreover, Keep a notebook in which you write all your goals, and think of them while you are driving your car or talking to others.

Sheila Ayman, a student who took third place in the 2020 Egyptian General Secondary Certificate, gives important advice for success: a person's actions must be consistent with his concepts.

Tip 9: "Learn the right way," Ayman said. "You don't need anything to learn except your genuine desire to do so."

Tip 10 : "Time is necessary. Don't waste it," added Ayman.
