I'm not a productivity guru but I'll take a stab at it.

Successful individuals excel by concentrating their efforts on tasks directly aligned with their ultimate objectives. They achieve this through dedicated periods of focused, intensive mental work.

Robert Thomas · Answer

Definitely! Some top productivity habits I've seen successful people follow: 1) Waking up early and having a consistent morning routine. 2) Prioritizing tasks and focusing on the most important ones first. 3) Taking regular breaks to recharge. 4) Saying no to distractions and time-wasters. 5) Constantly learning and investing in personal growth. 6) Surrounding themselves with positive, motivated people. 7) Staying organized with to-do lists, calendars, etc. Hope this helps! Would love to hear what habits have worked well for others too.

Richard Reis · Answer

Read their biographies and you'll find out.

One commonality amongst the top 0.0001% (Elon, Gates, Bezos, etc...) is 
1. Wake up.
2. Work until you feel sleepy.
3. Sleep.

Repeat (they usually do this for 10+ years).

In none of those biographies have I ever read anything about taking care of their mental health, diet, happiness, etc... So I think most of that advice is bs.

Answer

On behalf of the self proclaimed successful people community: Just be yourself, enjoy success of others as much as you enjoy your own, always be humble :)
