Since the year is about to end, we are going to witness many people posting how great their year was, their achievements, and all the places they managed to visit this year.
We all get inspired by these posts and videos that we look up to creating massive changes in our lives.
And we are expecting exactly for that. To create massive changes in our lives this year!
Drawing inspiration to turn your life into something beautiful is always part of the bigger plan.
A key pillar of personal growth is to allow you to be open to new things, new people, new opportunities, and new possibilities. To be able to step into a completely new and better world, it is important to step out of your shortcomings and things you think you lack to see a better version of yourself.
This year, we are planning to take a step back, revamp, and reflect accordingly. Whatever it is that you are going through, just try to enjoy the process more without worrying about what is it going to bring to you.
Let’s read this article to know more about it in detail:
1. Go To Bed Earlier :
Why? – So that you can wake up a little early.
If you are someone who wakes up, gets ready, and rushes to the office in haste than you are making very little out of your mornings which are supposed to be the most productive time of the day.
Above all, try to go to bed earlier and keep all your gadgets away from you as they serve to be bigger distractions and hamper your sleep routine.
Get plenty of rest so that you will be able to wake up all fresh and fine the next morning.
2. Cook For Yourself :
Let’s make health a priority in the year 2020. Apart from preaching you on the importance of a healthy diet, eating self cooked nutritious food has multifold benefits which include better monetary savings.
Get yourself to make a diet chart every week and plan your meals in advance for every single day. Even if you are a working man/woman, you can cook at least one nutritious meal for yourself instead of forcing yourself to survive on junk.
Buy groceries, set your pantry up, get to learn many easy-to-cook and quick recipes. It will do wonders!
3. Say "YES" To Self Care :
There, basically, should be a self love mechanism that would cheer you up even on your bad days. Making your self care ritual is pretty simple – all you need to do is find out what makes you happy.
Is it binge watching a heartwarming sitcom, eating loads of donuts, prepping a meal for yourself, getting out on a coffee date with yourself, or absolutely anything else that gives you an instant kick.
Apart from this, you can incorporate a self care ritual in your morning or night routine as well. Write a journal, read a book, or draw – it is entirely up to you.
All of these activities would just keep the creative bone inside you intact.
4. Start Thinking Positively :
I know, it is easier said than done but just think about It - we always keep thinking about how things are difficult for us, how things can’t get better, and how we can’t do a particular something.
How about a massive change in the way we think, this year?
How about taking things on a positive note right from the beginning?
How about thinking that things will get better? Because they always eventually do, don’t they?
Journaling and practicing gratitude would be a wonderful idea to kick start and incorporate the whole positive thinking bit in your life.
Pick up on little things and start noticing the “good parts” that keep happening in your day to day life.
5. Develop Productive Routines :
No, we are not asking you to be a robot and follow a strict routine for the entire day but you can always handpick the best bits of productive routines – for example walking barefoot on grass for 30 minutes, waking up early in the morning and limiting your phone usage could be part of a super productive morning routine.
Start practicing and take sufficient time to feel a change in your life yourself.
Start making your mornings better – i.e. there should be sufficient time for you to do things in the morning instead of hasting and rushing to your workplace.
6. Eliminate Every Ounce Of Limiting Thoughts :
Here is a quick list of things that you need to kick out of your mind as soon as possible.
• Self doubt
• Complaining
• Comparing
• Worrying
• Judgment
• Assuming the worst will happen
Did you know that you are putting it back into the universe whatever it is that you think and believe. That’s why you might have heard people asking you to only stick to positive thoughts!
Notice the pattern and never overlook what thoughts are occupying your mind. If you don’t stop these thoughts from controlling your life, you are going to find many hurdles in your way to success and happiness.
