Changing a habit is really difficult, it often takes 3 weeks at least and a lot of willpower!
-
but not all habits are equal, fixing your sleeping schedule is a lot easier than quitting
-
to smoke! at least for most people.
-
But on the other side, there are some small habits that lead to huge success.
-
They do not take a lot of effort but significantly can improve your life.
-
I do practice them myself and you should make them part of your life as well!
-
1. first, Ask the five why's
-
before I take an important decision or do something, I ask myself the 5 why's. its
-
a bit annoying because you don't always have the answers but that's the point.
-
a lot of people set a goal of becoming a millionaire.
-
There is nothing wrong with that, but why do you want to become a millionaire.
-
Probably because you want to have a luxuries life, you want to have all the fancy things
-
that rich people have!
-
Again, why do you want to have all those things?
-
Maybe because you want to be admired! you want people to respect you!
-
You want to be an important person with whom people would want to connect!
-
After asking WHY twice, we have already figured out that you are not behind money but rather
-
social acceptance.
-
Of course, it's just an example, and it could be different in your case.
-
But the moment you keep asking why before doing anything, you will see things differently
-
and would make better decisions.
-
Usually what happens is that you find out that you are chasing the wrong thing.
-
2. when you are wrong, admit it and apologise
-
Some people think that by ignoring their mistakes and trying to appear perfect, people will
-
respect them.
-
in fact, some believe that, admitting their mistakes, will make them inferior somehow.
-
But that's not the case.
-
just because you did not admit your mistake, doesn't mean people didn't realize it.
-
You are only making yourself look like an arrogant douchebag!
-
we are all humans, we all make mistakes, and only the strongest among us dare to swallow
-
their egos and admit their misdoing. and that deserves respect.
-

number 3, Always Have a to-do list on paper!
-
I don't want to offend anyone, but your memory isn't as good as you think.
-
you easily forget things.
-
and the easiest way to never forget anything is to have a do list.
-
But don't have it on your phone or a computer because you use your phone for a lot of other
-
things and you probably have a lot of other notes, that's a distraction.
-
A little piece of paper that's on your desk or home would be a much better option.
-
When your to-do list is on your phone, you pick your phone to check out what you gotta
-
do, but you end up checking your Instagram or Facebook and spend much more time than
-
you suppose.
-
It will also give you a feeling of fulfillment. at the end of the day when you look at your
-
to-do list and you have accomplished most of it, you feel like you haven't wasted
-
your day! you actually did something meaningful!
-
In fact, if you write down your weekly, monthly or annual goals and stick them on your wall,
-
that will be fantastic, because they will constantly remind you of your end goal!
-

-
Think Before you do or say something
-
How many times you said something without thinking and regretted!
-
That's how often relationships break, friendships get spoiled or you simply get into trouble.
-
And that's normal to a certain extent because your brain avoids thinking at all cost since
-
it consumes a lot of energy so it automates a lot of its tasks.
-
But that doesn't mean you can't change that.
-
Of course, it will lead you to talk less because you will be thinking more but that will make
-
your words more valuable and your actions more accurate.

Never Skip the morning jog
-
I hate jogging with all of my life.
-
It's so boring that I can't stand it.
-
I would rather spend an hour in the gym than jog for 15 minutes.
-
But I still do it because the benefits are simply too high.
-
first of all, it will get you excited for the day, secondly, it will give you a feeling
-
of fulfillment and would set you to be productive for the rest of the day.
-
Especially if you are going to spend the rest of the day in front of a desk or a computer.
-
But don't run too much, make sure you don't get exhausted by the end of the jog. the goal
-
is to energize you for the rest of the day.
-
It might be difficult to force yourself to go for a little jog every morning, but the
-
moment you turn it into a little habit.
-
It gets super easy, the key is to make sure you get enough sleep.
-
6.
-
meditate when you are lazy When you get lazy, it's really difficult to
-
get yourself into the working mood again.
-
When something is bothering, you can't focus.
-
You just want to lie down and do nothing.
-
That's why you need to meditate, it will help to get back on track!
-
You don't have to spend hours to meditate or learn some specific techniques.
-
Just 3 to 5 minutes of meditation is enough to get yourself back to being productive.
-
Whenever you find it difficult to concentrate.
-
Put everything aside, sit comfortable, make sure your back is straight, close your eyes
-
and focus on breath, make sure you are breathing deeply.
-
The goal is to sharpen your focus on one thing and get rid of everything else that's going
-
on in your mind.
-
Once you are back to the present.
-
You will find it easier to get to work.

Always Dress well
-
Whether you like or not, looks matter!
-
Ideally, people should not judge you base on your looks, in fact, they should not judge
-
you at all, but we do not live in a Utopia.
-
Before you even open your mouth, people already make up their minds about the kind of person
-
you are!
-
That's why the first impression is important!
-
Of course, you cant chose how you look!
-
But you decide how you dress!
-
Even if you are let's say hypothetically isn't attractive, your clothing can give a different
-
image of you.
-
the better you're dressed, the more respect and attention you are going to get.
-
By the way, that can even boost your self-confidence.
-
develop a habit of always dressing well.
-

-
keep standing
-
our bodies are built to move. and for most of our existence, we needed to
-
constantly move to survive.
-
but as we have progressed, we have come to the point where we simply spend too much time
-
sitting which is terrible.
-
your blood depends on you to keep moving so that it circulates properly.
-
even your nerves or skin require constant movement.
-
what do you think happens when you are just sitting in front of a desk.
-
Besides the fact that you will get back problems, diabetes and probably a heart attack, in the
-
long run, you will also get lazy and tired all the time, since all that affects your
-
brain as well.
-
So sitting to use your brain is clear counterproductive
-
by the way, that's another reason why start your day with a jog is a great idea.
-
so whenever you can, just stand and move!

Stay hydrated
-
most people are under-hydrated because we simply do not drink enough water.
-
why? we drink soft drinks, juices, cocktails and
-
everything else the world has to offer.
-
Instead of a cup of water, we go for a hot drink.
-
Just by replacing most of your drinks with water, you are going to do yourself a great
-
favor.
-
You are literally made out of the water, Your brain and heart are 75 percent water, therefore
-
they consume most of the water you drink.
-
when you are dehydrated, normally your brain starts working inefficiently.
-
Some studies even show that your brain shrinks when it doesn't consume enough water.
-
a dehydrated brain has to work much harder to accomplish the exact same task than a hydrated
-
brain.
-
so if you want to always be active, productive always in a good mood.
-
Keep drinking water.
-
just make sure you don't get over hydrated!
-
do not try to implement all the 9 habits at once, you will get exhausted and probably
-
will give up immediately.
-
try them one by one, maybe start with the 5 why's first.
-
Remember, changing your life isn't one big decision that you take suddenly, it's all
-
about making small changes every single day, and in a few months or maybe even years, you
-
will find your life significantly better.
