These
are six ways to help improve your life and achieve set goals, I’m sure anyone
who has included these attitudes into life must can testify to them. Make them
your habits and you will be grateful come five years from now:
1.
Carry
a Note Pad and Pen Always: Every day we find ourselves in unexpected
situations, occasions and we cannot be sure where to learn something important about
life, our jobs and many other things. If you are looking to improve your life
then be ready to learn from the most ridiculous places, you should always
carry a note pad and pen, so you can put down every little idea that comes your
way. Writing them down makes them easier to develop, also taking down notes at
events helps bring clarity when you reflect on the ideas later. One has to be
very discreet with this rule as and carry it out on daily bases, even when
going out to have fun because the idea which ensures your success might pop up
while having fun.
2.
Listening:
A lot of people especially younger generations are highly impatient, never
ready listen anywhere whether its school, a function or worship center. Listening
is very important to our life, as it is by far different from hearing someone
talk, it requires more attention and we gain more from the conversion. These days it
is actually hard to listen due to our mobile phones, the number of people you
have to reply their chat per hour is way too much and lots of us are always
distracted when someone is talking to us or we are in conference, its either we
are doing something on our phones or we can't wait to get back to our
phones.
If you want something
highly productive from your life in years to come learn to pay attention,
whenever someone is trying to communicate with you physically. You get to learn
from what they are saying and you are not in any way disrespecting them.
3.
Meditation/Reflection:
This is also highly important, there is no better way to know how good you look than
checking your reflection in the mirror. Many leaders in the past and our
present time practice reflection or meditation. Taking time to meditate on your
life helps you figure out what direction you are heading towards, if
redirection is needed you can always discover when you reflect on your actions. Reflection
helps to know how close you are to achieving your goals.
Spend at least 45 minutes
daily, reflecting on your daily activities, long and short term goals and you
will be happier about how things have turned out in five years.
4.
Sell
your Image: Your image says a lot about you, what picture comes
to peoples’ mind, when they hear your name is highly important. Amongst your
colleagues make sure you are well known and something good and important is
attached to your image. Always be cheerful, introduce yourself to at least two
people a day tell them what you do, you cannot be sure who is capable of
helping you.
5.
Be
an Opportunist: Take good advantage of every opportunity
that comes your way. Chances are rare in life, once we miss them there is
a little chance we can get them back. If there seems any opportunity you are
constantly open to daily, make good use of it today because sooner or later it won’t
be there again.
6.
Build
a network: Lastly build a network of people, resourceful people
who can actually make positive contributions in your life. Often times they are
people you have the same goals as they do, that way you can easily achieve your goals. Also, it is not a bad thing to have a failing, when in need of help
remember to ask no matter how awkward it seems, stalling will make the problem
last longer.
