Family and Relationships Self-Improvement Tips 3

75. Give and receive- relationships are never one sided, or at least they shouldn't be. You need to be prepared to give, receive and compromise on almost every aspect of your life. This means you will have to give up some things and limit that selfish behaviour. Letting someone else into your life is an important step towards self-improvement.


76. Make a date and keep it! - Many couples have trouble finding time for one another, which can lead to a big strain on their relationship, physically and emotionally. This, in turn, can lead to a feeling of failure and a loss of self worth. So what's the cure? Easymake time for one another. Set a certain time every day to spend
together. This could be as simple as going for a brief walk, a coffee in the morning, or an uninterrupted dinner at night. Make the date, and keep it, no matter what.


77. Communicate- you've heard it before. Communication is vital for any strong relationship. Improve your relationship and your self-understanding by opening up, letting go and talking about what's on your mind. It can be incredibly therapeutic. Share work stories, discuss movies, admit your feelings- open your mouth and talk. However, it's equally important to listen as well!


78. Schedule singles (or alone) nights as well- too much together time can actually lead to a strain in your relationship and cause you to lose touch with your inner self. Make sure you still do alone activities

You are in control of what you want and your goals should come down to you and you alone. Just because your Dad wants you to be a lawyer and your Mom wants you to have 5 children does not mean this is what you have to do- it's your life and thus, you are the boss. 87. Disassociate yourself from negativity- in the same way positive thoughts lead to positive results, negative thoughts leads to negative results. Negativity may be all around you- bitchy co-workers; unhappy neighbours; a depressing partner. Disassociate yourself from those types of people. You are in a happy, positive place- no negativity allowed. 88. Define your goals clearly- goals are what make life worth living. Think long and hard about what y...

Reaching your Goals: Self-Improvement and Success 2

89. Push jealously aside- when you watch someone on a parallel path reaching their goals a lot sooner, it can be hard to sit back and be happy for them. But this is what you are going to have to do. Getting rid of this envy and resentment is a big hurdle in improving your self. But, once you overcome these feelings, you are a lot closer to reaching a state of Zen-like success. 90. Use visual reminders as boosters- being able to clearly see your goal can help motivate you and keep you focused on your game plan. Many people will post a picture of their 'dream body' on the fridge when they are trying to lose weight. Others will use their 'dream car' as their computer screen saver at work when those tough days get them down. A visual reminder can boost your motivation and drive to succeed. 91. See yourself at the end- as mentioned above, visualization is vital to reach your goal and improve your self. This is why it's important to visualize yourself there. See you...
