Keep Hope And Try New Things
We all struggle with something at times so it is important to keep hope and try new things. Hope has a power we don’t fully understand, like prayer. And trying different ways to reach the desired outcome is more likely to improve the situation than doing the same thing that isn’t working, over and over again.
Get Different Results
If you want different results or outcomes, you will need to do things differently from before.
Are you even aware of what will need to be done differently?
Are you even willing to do the things differently, every day, even when you don’t want to?
Discipline. Sacrifice. Resilience.
You can live a better life if you choose to put the work in. Otherwise, expect more of what you’ve had.
Break With Routine
It’s important to break with routine sometimes. Mix things up.
Do The Work
Doesn’t sound sexy. Or fun. But it is what will move you forward and help you reach your goal.
Sit down. Define what you are to do. Then sit there and get it done.
Have You Written Out Your Wants?
Like a grocery list, you sit with pen and paper and look around and think about what it is you really would like.
Rather than jam and milk, you might think about a month in Peru in their summer, hiking the Inca trail, spending two weeks on a quiet beach on Zanzibar or walking part of the Great Wall of China.
You can write out the qualities of the perfect partner for you or the outline of the book you want to write. You might also note down the fitness level you would like to maintain in your 40s, 50s, and 60s.
It’s quite a powerful process to write these things out and bring them to life. You’ll feel better for the process. Then you can organise when and how you’ll do them. Then go and enjoy your dreams while you can.
Let The Past Fade
Focus on the future and your ideal life. Map out what your world would look like in your happiest moments. Then build the environment and habits to make that ideal life become reality.
Let the past fade. Except for awesome, wonderful memories and the education and experience you’ve gained.
Do not harbour resentment, it is a self inflicted poison.
Focus on the great future and all the positive vibes.
Keep Moving Forward
Setbacks happen.
Persistence is key.
Keep moving forward.
Challenge Yourself
Can you be disciplined? Of course you can be. You simply need to make the focused effort to do it.
It’s easy to say you can’t. It’s hard to say you will; and keep your promise. But it can and should be done. You’ll feel much better for pushing through a tough day, long hours, late nights and many rather tough challenges.
Build a better you. Do it today.
Help A Friend
When you can, help a friend.
