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 yourself fitting into that size 10. Feel the breeze on your cheeks as you drive that sports car. Seeing is believing.


92. Use timelines- tracking your success can help you put your goal into perspective and see how far you've already come. It's important for self-improvement that you recognise your feats and be proud of what you have doing, or are planning to do.

Reaching your Goals: Self-Improvement and Success 1

One of the best ways to self improve is to accomplish your goals. This can lead to pride, to self-respect and to a better sense of responsibility. 86. Recognise your own path- when it comes to reaching your goals and improving your life, you need to be the leader. 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...

You You You! Self-Improvement Tips for Your Overall Well Being 3

importance. - Make time for Hobbies- it's important for people to have hobbies. As we get older it's easy to stop those extra-curricular activities that you loved as a child such as sports. Look for adult activities such as soccer teams, book clubs, rowing clubs or bird watching groups. Keep your passions alive by re-connecting with the hobbies and activities that you once loved. - Look down- take a hike to the top of a cliff that overlooks the city, or jump on an elevator and ride the lift to the top floor and look down. Seeing the world from this above can really put things into a new perspective. - Break the Pattern- get up, work, home, gym, dinner, TV, sleep. Does this sound like your pattern to life, or something similar? Break it up. - Find a Balance- it's all about harmony. Finding that perfect balance comes down to mind, body and spirit. Work on perfecting all three to gain self-importance. - Live for the Now- sure, you need to plan for the future...

Don't neglect your oral hygiene- make it a habit to brush, floss and use sugar-free, alcohol-free mouthwash daily. Make a trip to the dentist once a year too. No one likes going to the dentist- but no one wants to lose his or her teeth either. 15. De-stress- remaining healthy is not just about go, go, go. You also need to stop, relax and re-stress. Stress is unavoidable at some times. The best way to deal with stress is to push away from it for a few minutes, let your body relax, and then tackle it head on. 16. Invest in Sleep- you don't need us to tell you how important sleep is. This is why it's a good idea to reward yourself at night with expensive sheets, a perfectly firm mattress and cosy down covers. Your bed is your battery recharger. Make sure it's in tip-top condition. 17. Get creative with foo...
