4 Simple Self Improvement Principles | How To Improve Yourself Everyday | Self Improvement Tips.

"I really want to improve this habit of mine". Do you think this way too? Are you being tired of tolerating those same bad habits and want to improve yourself? Then, you're at the right place.

How often do we think about modifying ourselves and waking up one fine morning with a different persona? Well, everything takes time, things don't occur overnight.

Today we'll see few crucial points which will help you improve yourself day by day making you happier and peaceful from within.

Time by time when someone overcomes a bad habit or starts forming a new one, a bunch of other good habits come with it. Researchers named this sort of habit a keystone habit.

A single habit that causes you to adopt multiple other good habits and change your life.

The reason behind writing this blog is that today, you're going to pick a habit to focus on. And, the three habits that I'm going to tell you are one of the most powerful keys.

These habits have the highest chance of drastically changing your life.

The three most effective habits are as follows :

1. READ! READ! READ!

Most of you guys probably know by now that I'm a huge fan of reading and writing. When I first started my self development journey, this was the first habit that I started implementing into my life.

I would read and write just about every single day. Now, as everyone knows that education is important that's why we spend twelve to eighteen years in buildings that are designed to teach us things.

However, the problem lies in the fact that most of the stuff we learned in school isn't that useful in real life. These things are nice to know and have their uses, but aren't that practical in our day-to-day lives?

Instead, we need to be learning about things like social skills, maintaining a proper diet, how to exercise, money management things, that we don't really learn correctly in school.

Books provide you with knowledge on all of these topics they also give you different perspectives on things that we assume to be true.

• EXAMPLE -

✓  If, you're reading a book on body language, you'll start becoming more conscious of your own body language as well as those around you.

✓  if you read a book on money management, you start noticing a change in your spending habits. And, because of its abilit, it'd influence any part of your life positively.

✓  Reading is without a doubt one of the most powerful Keystone habits out there.

2. MEDITATION.

I have used this term meditation tons of time in my blogs, and you guys probably know by now that I'm a huge advocate for it.

The reason meditation is so powerful is, because of what it does to your brain. It trains a part of your brain that's responsible for will power, for self-control.

Just like going to the gym, if you train it, it actually gets stronger and this gives you the ability to do certain things.

Things that I consider to be superpowers -

• EXAMPLE -

You will find yourself more in control of your emotions, and this is great. Because, often times we relapse or give into our addictions when our emotions are all over the place.

Another thing, meditation trains you to be focus. Longer meditation is simply the act of trying to focus your mind on one thing. And, this is extremely hard for people nowadays.

When you start meditating and making it into a habit, you'll notice a drastic increase in your ability to focus.

Maybe, in the past you were the type of person who couldn't even read two pages of a book without getting side tracked. A lot of people report increased focus.

Being able to read entire chapters at a time after making meditation into a habit. Meditation provides a sense of general well-being.

Meditation brings back that sort of mindset, that sort of perspective where you can sit down on a park, bench and simply be mind blown by just how beautiful everything around you is.

Meditation is an extremely powerful Keystone habit. Because, it's a very very hard habit to stick to but if you can make it into a habit, that you do automatically every day.

And, adopting other habits will become a piece of cake.

Thirdly,

3. FITNESS.

And, this includes everything. Ranging from running to lifting heavy weights, to doing calisthenics.

Fitness is an extremely powerful keys, we don't have it because of its intimate relationship with diet. Researchers have found that most people who start sticking to a fitness regimen will often find themselves improving inside out.

Adjusting their diet as well even if they're told not to, it makes sense, because if you're working your ass off at the gym, you're less likely to consume junk food.

It quote unquote undos all of your hardwork and because these two habits basically come in a package together, it requires a lot of will power to maintain.

So, if you can successfully make them into full-fledged habits, you'll be able to take on smaller habits with ease for those of you that are curious as to how will power works.

We'll cover all of that later on, but, for now, just understand that it does work like a muscle. The more you test it, it becomes on top of that.

The habit of fitness and diet has a huge influence on how you feel every single day. Many people report feeling tired or foggy, and oftentimes the problem stems from our diet or our lack of exercise.

Once these people start adopting these two good habits, they often report feeling much better and if you start feeling better on a day to day basis, it makes it much easier to start adopting other good habits too.

This ability to improve your body's day-to-day function makes fitness and diet an extremely powerful Keystone habit.

I know, there are dozens of other good and healthy improving habits out there, like cold shower morning rituals, making your bed etc.

But, these three Keystone habits are without a doubt, three of the most powerful habits that you can add to your life.

So, what I like for you to do right now is, to think carefully about which habit you want to work on. Which of these habits are you going to commit and try to stick to, until it reaches that line of automaticity that we talked about!

Well, you no longer even have to think about doing it, that's the goal, it's also very important to note that you should only try to stick to one of these habits at a time.

We humans are extremely bad at multitasking. Although, we tend to think that we're pretty good.

I can just about guarantee that if you're trying to adopt multiple habits at once, that you're going to get overwhelmed and fail.

Stick to the single keystone habit, you decide on it, until it reaches that line of automaticity.

Now let's read how PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT helps in improving ourselves.

Personal Development is a life long process. But, it doesn't have to take you more than a few minutes to start improving yourself.

You're familiar with the two-minute rule. You know that any big goal can be broken down into smaller tasks. Some of these small tasks take less than 2 minutes to accomplish. 

But, they are likely to get you moving towards your larger goals and ambitions. Just take 2 minutes out of your day to complete one of these tasks to improve your overall well-being.

4. POSITIVITY AND GRATITUDE.

It really helps to melt away your stress, even when you feel that you are down. And, an attitude of gratitude can show you the light and keep you from feeling stressed.

You've hit the bottom with a clear and grateful mind. You will be more likely to move forward. It's been proven, in this time people that are primed with gratitude are more likely to reach their goals.

For some people gratitude is a difficult thing, but, something you can start doing is, keeping a small journal next to your bed whenever you go to sleep, and, right before you go to bed.

Write down everything on a single page for the things you're grateful for. Once you learn the power of the law of attraction, you will start to understand how truly important having a positive and grateful mind is for becoming successful.

I hope you now know, how we can enhance ourselves and why it's necessary.
