Be Smart About Self Improvement

-

You are headed in the direction of improving something about yourself that really bothers you. You decide to improve upon this element in your life. It may be a character "flaw", a body image, a habit or how you do something. The decision must be made for the right reason. Doing something for someone else rarely breeds successful change. Improving something about ourselves because we see value in doing it can motivate us enough to actually see the process all the way through to success. Be smart about the decisions you make regarding your self-improvement by following the tips below.

Be Aware Of Your Self

"be true to yourself" Bobby Vee wrote these lyrics in his song by the same title. Part of the lyrics are: Be true to yourself and you'll always be true to me Be true to yourself and you'll be the girl that I want you to be

Bobby asks you to follow your heart. Being smart with self-improvement asks you to follow your self. To follow your self, you must first know who you are. Understanding what makes you "tick" will help you to understand what improvements would be counterproductive to being true to yourself.

Think outside the box

When you are on the path of making improvements you are going to be doing something you have not done before. Thinking in the same thought patterns will lead you down the same paths. To think outside of the box you need to be open to new ideas.



Keep An Open Mind

It will be difficult to think in new ways if you are not open to receiving new ideas. A student learns only when the mind is open to accept new ideas. Be willing to open your mind and explore the possibilities.

Be willing to respond

Making improvements requires a response to something new. You must be willing to respond to new ideas and ways of thinking.

We are sometimes asked to respond by taking action; sometimes the response that is required is a way of thinking.

Use Resources

Be smart when it comes to learning about the topic of your improvement. To learn: read books, join online forums or local groups. Networking with others and especially alongside professionals help you to gain knowledge so you can make better decisions.

Find or Keep Your Sense of Humor

Making self improvements can be trying at times. Having a sense of humor during the process can help you to survive the time between starting and finishing the improvement. Finding the irony in situations or being able to see the comedy in the everyday stuff can lift your spirits and help pass the time.

Trust In Yourself

Believe in who you are and trust in the purpose of your improvement. Trust in your abilities. Believe that you can do it, and see yourself achieving your improvement. Envision the moment in your head.

Plan To Succeed by have a written set of goals

Start everyday with a TTD (things to do) list. This list will highlight what you intend to accomplish that day regarding reaching for your self-improvement goal. Those who fail to plan, fail to achieve their goals. Know what it is that you want to accomplish and when. Write it down. Keep your TTD list visible as you go about your day. Electronic planners are great for keeping important items at hand.

Take Action

Do not let your self-improvement goal stay on paper or in your head. Get out there and take real action towards achieving your goal every day.

Share Your Achievements

Think about where you were prior to your self-improvement achievement. How did you feel about yourself. Do you see others around you struggling or feeling the same way? Do not be afraid to share your journey with others. Your achievements can inspire others to reach their own self-improvement goal.

Are You Stuck? Consider Changing Your Focus!

If you sometimes feel as though you’re caught in life’s quicksand, you have a lot of company. We work, we struggle, we try to do everything we possibly can to move on to a higher level of well-being but it seems like the harder we work, the more stuck we get. If you’re approaching a Category 5 frustration level, you might give this a try… Switch your focus from that really nice – but frustrated – person in the mirror to one or more of the other folks who inhabit this good earth. I realize that it’s important to watch out for number one – ourselves. We need to set goals, lay out plans and then do those things we need to do so that we can at least make some progress toward our goals. We need to demonstrate personal financial responsibility, plan for retirement and frequently just cover our backside so it doesn’t get chewed off by one or more of life’s rodents. However, what frequently happens is that we become so over-focused on ourselves and our own personal well-being that we wind ...

3 Tips for Managing Your Life

Good news: from getting organized to maximizing your time, there are some easy ways to stay focused and achieve your goals. What Areas Need the Most Work? Watching a reality TV show may be more entertaining than cleaning the bathroom or folding the laundry, but it won't keep your home from becoming a biohazard. Establishing and sticking to priorities will help you spend less time worrying about what needs to be done and more time accomplishing your goals. Consider using Sunday evenings, when you normally mourn the end of the weekend, to go over weekly goals and priorities. This is a great way to stay focused on what you want to accomplish without getting ahead of yourself. Cut Out the Junk If you're like most people, you keep possessions well beyond their usefulness. When your white clothes start turning yellow, or you find boxes and boxes that you can’t even remember what is inside, then it’s time to get rid of some items. Consider selling old appliances, c...

Do What You Love To Do

What do you want to be when you grow up? I’m sure you were asked this question at least once when you were young. When asked the question, did you have an answer ready, or did you need a few minutes to think about it? We all had dreams of becoming something great, like a lawyer, a teacher, or a movie star, just to name a few. Well, how did you do? Maybe you never aspired to be what you set out to be or said that you would become. But then again, things change. The older we get, our tastes change, our view of the world changes, even our ambitions change. One of the most important lessons I’ve learned during my career path is to do something you love to do. Why is this important? I feel that if you enjoy what you make a living at, you end up being happy in more ways than one. Life itself becomes much more interesting and fun. You find yourself speaking passionately to others about your work. The experiences you have along the way become much more rewarding and enrich your life in many wa...
