The success secrets of geniuses

Sarah Green (@skgreen on Twitter) over at HBR has a great article profiling the daily habits of successful geniuses, at least those who weren't junkies. 

Key takeaways:

  • A workspace with minimal distractions
  • A daily walk
  • Accountability metrics
  • A clear dividing line between important work and busywork
  • A habit of stopping when they’re on a roll, not when they’re stuck
  • A supportive partner
  • Limited social lives

If you're nurturing your inner genius and don't want to end up a junkie definitely have a read on how to put these concepts to work for your success: The Daily Routines of Geniuses

Good hunting-
