We are changing every day. Change is life. Life is change. If we are not changing, what are we doing?
Growing or dying.
Remember, “There is no growth without discomfort.” If you want to grow, you must be ready to get uncomfortable.
Jim Rohn said, “You can change all things for the better when you change yourself for the better.” The only way to change your life is to change yourself. If you don’t change, nothing will change.
You can change your life if you honestly follow the following practices:
Set great goals. “Don’t make your goal too easy; you’ll be cheating yourself.”- Alec Mackenzie
Question yourself. Ask yourself what it is that you really want. How to get what you want. What to do to get what you want. “The power to question is the basis for all human progress.”- Indira Gandhi
Discipline yourself to make your dreams come true. Without discipline, we cannot really achieve anything in life. With discipline, everything is possible in life. “It is the small disciplines that lead to great accomplishments.“- Jim Rohn
Take action to change your life. Action brings results. Only action can change your life. As a person, your actions will inspire people to follow you. “Words motivate, actions inspire.”- Gary Burnison
When you feel good about yourself, you feel good about the things around you. Your life. Your relationships. Your work. Your health. Your spirituality.
“Positive people feel better about themselves.”
“Negative people feel bad about themselves.”
“Positive people are more productive than negative people.”
Why is that? What can we do about it? Can we really do something to change how we see the things around us?
If you feel negative about yourself, about things, you will view the word in a negative way. But if you feel positive about about yourself, you will feel positive about the world and the things around you.
“How you see yourself is how you will see the world.”
“A positive attitude gives energy.”– Edward de Bono
To add to that, “A negative attitude sucks energy.”
Always think in a positive way. If you think in a positive way, you will feel positive about yourself. If you think in a negative way, you will feel negative about yourself.
Do not feel bad about yourself. Always feel good about yourself by focusing on the most important things in your life, and taking actions to make them happen.
Do not doubt yourself. If you believe in yourself, people will believe in you. If you don’t, no one will. Remember, “success in life starts with self-belief.”
Surround yourself with positive people. The more you hang around positive people, the more positive you will be. “Positive people celebrate other positive people.”
“A positive attitude is contagious.”
Read positive quotes or books before you start your day. Reading positive things will help you program your mind for positive things.
Expect positive things. You get what you expect. If you expect negative things, you will get negative things. If you expect positive things, you will get positive things.
Don’t dwell on the past.You cannot change the past, but you can change tomorrow. How? By focusing on what you are doing right now. Prepare for your tomorrow today. What you do today will determine how successful you will be tomorrow.
Take responsibility for your actions. No matter what went wrong in the past, no matter what is happening now, and no matter what will happen tomorrow, hold yourself accountable. Don’t blame anyone for your mistakes. Don’t blame yourself for your mistakes. Instead, accept your mistakes, learn from your mistakes, and move on.
