Hello everyone !!!
Hope all are doing well. This is my first story sharing with you all.Today I am sharing about self improvement.
We are all works-in-progress. And it takes effort and dedication to grow and evolve in a positive direction. Fortunately, there is never a bad time to set new goals for yourself, and it's never too late to pick up a habit that can improve your well-being for the rest of your life. Whether you are dealing with stress, working through relationship struggles, or simply trying to change your life in small ways, there are many strategies available to help you be the best version of yourself.
it's important to find the strategies that work for you, whether that involves learning a new skill, exercising more, or taking up meditation. Many times, the effort alone is enough to make you feel better.
Gratitude is a positive emotion that involves being thankful and appreciative and is associated with several mental and physical health benefits.
What do you really want out of life? What are your self-improvement goals? Is it a higher rank in the workplace, a more loving relationship or your own successful business? Humans are wired to want to “do better” because in the past this led to a stronger chance of survival.
However, going on your self-improvement journey isn’t all just as smooth and easy as some may appear it to be
In fact, it can be quite difficult and challenging — and the road is filled with obstacles that you won’t see coming. That’s why, in this article, I’ll share 5 tips on how to approach self-improvement effectively so that won’t set yourself up for failure and frustration.
Instead of trying to overhaul your entire life at once, focus on just a few things first. In some cases, it’s even best to focus on just one area first.
Find at least one person (whether in real life, online, living or dead) that has achieved what you want to achieve. It could be a colleague, author, influencer. Study their moves, their material and their words then make it your own by giving it your unique twist.
The right mentor has already walked the path that you want to walk, thus he or she can show you the pitfalls, obstacles and best strategies to succeed. If you try to do it all by yourself, be prepared to make many mistakes, waste a lot of time and encounter many frustrating situations. Rather, get a mentor that can help you short-cut the process.
Going on your self-improvement journey on your own can lead to many frustrating and lonely moments. Instead, gather at least one other person.
Do you have any friends, colleagues or family members who are also ambitious or into self-development? If so, talk with them about your moves and learnings. This will help you to minimize falling off-track and make the journey a lot more fun!
Personally, I’ve created a small three-person mastermind with two of my best friends. We meet on a weekly basis to discuss our goals, progress and latest insights. This has helped me enormously in taking consistent action, improving my business and personal development strategies and have more fun in the process.
We act most effectively when we have a goal to work towards. Not only is highly motivating, but it also gives you guidance and structure on which you can base your actions. When you’ve set a few goals, you can act upon it with clarity, focus and determination. Your actions are no longer random and unstructured, but focused and intentional.
When you set your goals, always make them highly specific, measurable and add a deadline to it. If you don’t do this, it merely remains a vague wish or dream.
You will encounter obstacles, challenges and inner struggles when you’re trying to create anything worthwhile. It’s a necessary part of achieving great things.
Especially in the beginning, you will encounter moments in which you’ll be less motivated, have less momentum and be less enthusiastic about self-development. This is something that basically everyone goes through.
I always say that these struggles come from the old-self trying to survive and take down the new-and-improved-self. In those cases, refer back to your mentors, accountability partners, goals and your ‘why’.
As I mentioned before, knowing is not enough to change your life — you need to take massive action upon what you know. Therefore, as an action point, follow at least three of these five tips and implement them in your own life.
The ability to motivate yourself—self-motivation—is an important skill. Self-motivation drives people to keep going even in the face of set-backs, to take up opportunities, and to show commitment to what they want to achieve. This page explains more about this essential area, part of emotional intelligence.
One should be a self-motivated person, as self-motivation is the key to a satisfied living. It enables a person to make self-assessment as often as one can.
