ideas to improve your life

What is the end goal you seek? Is what youre doing bringing you there? If not, put it aside. As long as you keep taking on things that meet your end goal, youll eventually reach there.

For every goal you have, there are different paths to achieve it. Pick out the 80 20 path, i.e. the most effective path that brings you there the fastest with least amount of effort.

As you embark on the 80 20 path for your goals, focus on the important tasks and cut out the less important ones. That means do the 20% actions that give you the 80% results.

Are your thoughts wandering around all the time? Calm your mind down. Be present. The only time youre ever living is in this moment. Meditation helps to remove mental clutter.

Snuggling under warm covers on a rainy day. Ice cream on a hot day. A kiss with your loved one. Being with your best friend. A walk by the park. The breeze on your face. Quiet, alone time. Watching the sun rise set. Soak in all these little moments of life. They are what make up your life.

Being the best also requires you to take breaks when needed. Make sure you rest when needed. Doing so lets you walk the longer mile ahead.

I wrote a 3 part series before on the downsides of perfectionism and how to overcome them. Be firm on your end goals your objective goals and your ideals, but let go of the fixation that things have to be a certain way. Youll realize its by doing that that you achieve what you want.

Think about what you can bring to the world, and create that.

Stop expecting others to behave in a certain way. Rather than demand that others around you change, focus on changing yourself. Youll be happier and live a more fulfilling life this way.

Be grateful for everything you have today, and everything you will get in the future.
