Time and again I have seen many people who ask me certain question, wanting to change certain habits and develop good habits. I don’t generally call anything to be a good or bad habit. I prefer calling them Useful or Not useful habits. Because the moment you call them good or bad, you begin to start justifying. Once you question your integrity about what is useful or not useful you tend to me more objective and make the right decisions. Few habits which I feel that you must have to develop (if you have not done so yet) that will for sure improve the quality of your life and take your like to the next level are as follows.
1. Be an Early Bird: I really mean it. The energy that surrounds you early in the morning is so refreshing that it gives you the momentum to go higher. I know there are a few of who say, “Hey listen I work late in the night and how do you expect me to wake up early in the morning”. If possible do change your schedule of working, else at least wake up at least 3 to 4 times in a week to start with. There is a specific reason why the Sun always rises in the east at a specific time in a day. We don’t need to understand the reason but just use it with the blind faith and belief that there is a purpose and will do a lot of good for us.
2. Move your Body and Exercise: Motion means emotion. Any super achiever is so because of the mental state they are in and the way you use and drive the body physiology determines the mental state you are in. if you feel lousy you can never step out to take action and action means results. Your body needs to be more tuned to your work, your breathing and your beat must be in harmony with the thoughts and action and the way to do so is by exercising. Take a brisk walk for 20 minutes or practice, play a game of tennis or volleyball.
3. Grow your Brain with Mental Activities: Read a book per week. Do your best to finish it or at read 20 pages every day. Once you do it for 3 days increase to 40 pages per day.
4. Don’t Worry Be Happy: – The choice of being happy is always with you. There is no reason for you to celebrate and be happy. As you wake up in the morning just decide to be happy. Smile every day. For the first 4 hrs of the day whomever you meet, you must have to smile at them first even before you start work with them. A smile move a million cells, a thousand nerves and few hundred muscles and as said before motion creates emotion and would make you feel energetic and perform better.
5. Say thanks with a Sense of Gratitude: You must be thankful for many things that happen in your life. First thank The Almighty God for His plans for your life. Thank yourself for what you are. As you do so your self esteem too increases. Thank the people around you for making a difference in your life. Your family, colleagues, friends and many more. Thank many unknown people who are making your life better. You might not have seen them but the person plants the tree which bears fruits makes a difference in your life. Do this every day in the morning and before bed. You would push yourself to achieve more.
6. Goals and Small tasks for the week: Once you have the bigger goals, you must have to chunk them down to smaller tasks. This will make you achieve your targets faster and makes it achievable. Small tasks are always easy to achieve.
7. Action towards goals and strategies: Failure is not when you do not get the results you want. Failure is when you do not take action. Once you set your goal, if you do not take any action on that I don’t think you would ever achieve it. Kill Procrastination this moment . Successful people are so not because they were lucky. Have that momentum in you so that you can move faster to achieve what you want.
To be continues......
