Have you ever told yourself that you are going to start working on a new resolution to better your life, but really didn’t work towards it? How many times have you been unhappy with certain aspects of your life and swore to change those unhealthy habits, but could not follow through with your decision?
What is it really that is holding you back and stopping you from being on the path to improve your life? Really, nothing. Technically, a lack of motivation, willpower and enthusiasm to approach life with enthusiasm.
Here is a simple 10-step program that you can follow to make a positive change in your life.
Step 1: Decide on the specific aspects of your life that you wish to change. Make a list of all these changes and then, number them according to priority. Strike off anything more than five items.
Step 2: Now, make a chart or a large-scale representation of your top five priorities. You can also assign symbols to each of them and draw these symbols onto a sheet of paper. Pin up the sheet in a place of prominence where you are going to see it often.
Step 3: Think of a practical plan to achieve these goals. Use your creativity and imagination to come up with your own unique ways to tackle these issues.
Step 4: Read up on your goals, on ways to attain success and biographies/blogs of people who have attained success to up your motivation.
Step 5: Visualization can be a powerful way to make the change. See what you are about to manifest as already happening in your life. Create mental images that are vivid and realistic that sow you the advantages of making a positive change to your life.
Step 6: Write an affirmation for every goal and repeat it often. This will program your subconscious mind to achieve your target.
Step 7: Adopt the habits of successful people – don’t let any distractions deter you from your path.
Step 8: Develop a strong willpower and self-discipline. Look up techniques to hone these skills online or in motivational books.
Step 9: Be patient with yourself and have faith in your abilities to overcome challenges. Don’t fret and every time you see yourself getting stressed out know that you need to give yourself time.
Step 10: Be open to positive change in order to make it happen. Actively pursue change and be willing to make things happen. Remember that good things happen to those who try.
