In life, we can often get held up on what is wrong or not going right within ourselves. Doubts and fears can creep in and be can down right crippling.
Here are some of my favorite strategies:
- Set goals: these can be personal or professional. I often write goals down into a list and cross off what has been achieved. Seeing that gives me such a sense of accomplishment. Try new things. Aim to accomplish new things. It could be starting a new career or losing weight. The canvas is huge! Remember, it is never to late!
- Surround yourself with positive individuals: ridding yourself of people who bring you down or are always negative is hard. It is so easy to stay in the comfort of what is known. However, I have found that when I am around other who are positive and are striving to be the best they can…well it rubs off and is really uplifting. Having friends who are your support is huge!
- Focus on the positive: well not everything will go your way or on the timeline you have given yourself. Guess what? It is OK. Focus on what is right.
- Look at the gains rather than the whole picture: I can sum this up with two words…”baby steps”
Believe. Strive. Achieve.
