Most people are disappointed for what they have achieved in life
within a year. Actually, you can start changing your life for the better
this year! It is not really difficult to make and begin the changing.
What you just need is to have a plan, execute it, and keep reviewing it
to ensure you are on track to achieve your goals.
Here are 7 tips that should help to improve your life:
1. Start at home by sorting out what you want, and don’t want, in your closet, kitchen, refrigerator, garage and garden.
Tidy your home! Go to your closet. Take out the old clothed
that you never wear in years. Keep what you really want and need to wear
in this year or so, and give the rest to charity. Then go to your
living room, windows and kitchen. Start cleaning the floor, vacuum the
carpet, clean the window glass or mirror with using glass cleaner. Wash
the dishes, mugs and clean your stove, oven and microwave. Finally,
take out all the garbage in to the trash can. Do all these a little
every day rather than once a month. Afterward, you will have a much
nicer home with clean and much more space every day. Plus you will have
the satisfaction of knowing that you are helping the needy.
Go to your fridge! Do you have a lot of old, out-of-date
stuff in there? Just take them out. Make sure it is only fresh and
healthy food you put inside.
Make up your garage! Bin the rubbish, and store the ladder,
tools, or whatever, neatly. Start placing those in its place and in
order. You may suddenly find you even have room for the car!
Tidy your garden! If you are lucky enough to have a garden,
make it nice and regularly maintain it. You will enjoy it much more, and
it will help keep you fit as well!
By doing these things, you will even find that it helps you to have a clear, fresh – and tidier! – Mind. It is a great way to start your new life.
2. Create Your Plan
What is the purpose of your plan? What are your goals for the year?
You have to decide what you want to accomplish in the short term,
midterm, as well as the long term (over a year). Write it down. This should include your financial targets as well. Make sure you have the income, and the security of income, you need.
3. Look after Yourself
It is true we cannot do things right if our health is not in good
condition. So enjoy regular walks, or perhaps even challenge yourself go
jogging a few times a week. (Take medical advice as appropriate) Of
course, you could maybe play sports that you like. Good exercise can be great fun!
Eat and drink healthy food. Vegetables, especially organic
vegetables, fruits, whole meal bread, fish, non-fat meat, etc. Drink
more mineral water daily.
Avoid drinking too much beer or alcohol as this impairs your mind. A
good diet will give you a better life, and often a longer one.
Remember, little changes can make a great change!
4. Read more nonfiction than fiction books.
Read good articles which suit your needs. I recommend you read the
stories of successful people, as that will motivate you to do as they
have. Make notes on what you have read, as that will help you absorb
and understand it better. A great mind is an inquisitive mind.
5. Appreciate yourself for what you have done and accomplished.
Give yourself little rewards as you achieve your goals. This will
make you feel much more confident that your plan is working. You will
feel a better person. Indeed, you will be a better person!
Of course, inevitably, sometimes your plan may not work as you hoped.
Don’t fret! You can simply revise the plan and get back on track. It just needs a little work and positive thinking to carry on.
Don’t work all the time! You need to entertain yourself by, say,
going to the movies, hanging out with colleagues or friends, going to
the places that make you happy every week end, and so on. This will make your mind fresh again and ready to execute the plan in the following week.
6. Get enough sleep.
Your body is working the whole day. It needs a rest and sleep. You
need to have a quality of sleep. Set the time to go to bed and to wake
up. Follow this rhyme every day and stay discipline. This will regenerate your mind, passion, and ideas clearer.
7. Do meditation
Meditation is helping your ideas and plan not only goes to your mind but also goes to your heart and loving it.
Does this meditation 15 minutes before you go to bed. Imagine what
you have achieved today, how much you appreciate your work for a day and
what you are going to do tomorrow. All the burden, resistant and fear
for what you are going to do next will be diminished. Instead, you will have a big burning desire to move forward in the following day.
Therefore, follow 7 tips above and you will change and improve your life to be better with a good habit this year.
