Habits
1. See “What is being said” & not “Who is saying it”:
Often people ignore things being said for the sake of not liking the particular person. Don’t be. Listen to what is being said. If it’s good, then you have to take it. If it is bad, ignore it. But, don’t let go of things just for the sake of your ego towards the person.
2. Have Courage & Confidence
tow attributes that you need to improve your life is having courage and confidence. Be confident and have courage in yourself.
3. “Forgiveness is the Attribute of the Strong”- MK Gandhi
Remember this wonderful inspiring quote. Forgive at least for the sake of your peace-of-mind. Be selfish in forgiving which leads to a calm mind and heart. Forgiveness tremendously improves one’s life.
4. Don’t be a Difficult Person to others
Life’s short. Be good to as many people as you can. Be the person who everyone would be happy to see. If not, at least be the person who doesn’t disturb others or make things difficult for others. Be a happy person to yourself and to others. It’s an easy way to improve your life.
5. Laugh Often
We use to hear about ‘Laughter is the best medicine’. It works even today. Laugh often. Laughter relieves stress immediately. It keeps you happy. A good joke or a simple one-liner can lighten your mood instantly. Laugh often. Personal pick among the ’50 ways to improve your life’ would be “Laugh Often. Smile Often”.
1. Mental Wellness
Nurture your soul and mind with good things. First, accept your situation to overcome it. Holding on to any form of guilt or regret is not good. Stop looking for validation and approval from others. Be good to your mind.
Make it a happy place devoid of negative thoughts and emotions. Things that no longer make you happy and inspired should be taken out of your life. It’s easier than said, but you need to take care of your mental health. Mental wellness is the key to leading an improved life.
2. Good Sleeping Habit
Good sleep guarantees good productivity. Follow a good sleep cycle (around min.5Hrs - Max. 7 1/2-8Hrs) and make it regular in your life. Good sleep enhances your mental state.
3. Follow Healthy Eating
Healthy eating is another way of improving your life apart from other emotional level attributes and variables. Make healthy eating a way of life.
4. Present yourself well
Take simple steps in taking care of your body language, how you speak and how you look. Present yourself in a good manner not for others but for yourself.
5. Life is Uncertain. You need to bring this Acceptance
Things don’t go the way you plan and that’s what makes life interesting. Ups and downs are part of everyone’s life. Bring the acceptance. Take life one day at a time.
6. Time has the ability to Heal & Solve
Time heals. Things you felt hurting will seem less-important after a few months or years. Giving time has solved many troubles, difficulties and bad things in life.
In the intricate dance of life, our habits play a pivotal role in shaping who we are and how we perceive ourselves. From the moment we wake until we close our eyes at night, our actions, repeated over time, solidify into habits that not only define our daily routines but also mold our very identities.
Our habits are the building blocks of our character. The things we do consistently, whether consciously or unconsciously, gradually form patterns that become ingrained in our psyche.
Whether it's the way we start our day with a cup of coffee, or how we react to stress, these routines become intertwined with our sense of self.
Conversely, our identity also influences our habits. Our beliefs, values, and self-perception shape the behaviors we adopt.
For example, someone who sees themselves as a health-conscious individual is more likely to exercise regularly and eat nutritious foods. Likewise, someone who views themselves as an avid reader.
This bidirectional relationship between habits and identity can either propel us towards growth or keep us stuck in limiting patterns.
Health and fitness are very important for a happy and successful life. You can relate to this that we can live life to its fullest only if we are fit.

MAIN CAUSE OF UNFIT LIFE IS :
"WE DON'T CARE ABOUT OUR HEALTH AND FITNESS"
❤️ Being fit is being happy!
It's not easy to get a healthy life in today's environment but let's take this challenge and make a promise to follow the path of a healthy lifestyle.
So, are you ready to accept this challenge?
What a huge gap is there between the human tongue and his hands! Yes, it’s ironic yet the truth. Our action depicts our act and words depict our views and ideas. We all have seen many people advising others for a particular work. But does it mean that they really follow what they advise others? We find hardly anyone doing all that he said before. In short, words are not as much value as actions. Action always counts.
For instance, if a person wants to reach the zenith in a specific field, it is of no use to glance through the books or understand them. But to observe an expert's skills in that particular field and to practice it is much useful. In the moral sphere, also, an example is more influential than a precept. Just take the example of the training of children by their parents.
Children are keen observers. They notice the gulf between the speech of the elders and their actual demeanor between their words and deeds very quickly. Don’t you think that elders themselves disobey what they are saying? Honesty and loyalty teachings of a corrupt father to his son will have just remained as a lesson of futility.
This all means that words hardly cast any effect on a person, but action always acts effectively for one’s personality.
Do you have a record to fit in these habits in your life? If not, you should thoughtfully consider doing so.
The power of having a plan cannot be overstressed.
For instance, I realize that each Monday, Wednesday and Friday, I will be in my town exercise center at 7.30 a.m. for my moment quality preparing exercise.
If for any reason, I mess up and miss my exercise on Wednesday, I already have a plan in place to get back on track for the Friday workout.
The business carries on as normal because the decision-making rule has already been made.
I already know specifically what, where and when I will be taking action next time.
Practice: If you haven’t previously done this, just block and fit in your habits into your calendar.
Be very particular about what you will be doing, where it will take place and when you will be making it happen.
A tip here is to build in barrier zones in your calendar to allow for potential slip-ups and crashes. Attaching to a calendar will help prevent you from beating yourself in the wake of failing, reconnect with and remain concentrated on the propensity at the following reasonable time. Use your current habits to restart the behavior.
Rather than building the habit back up from starting, why not use the momentum of your current habits?
Typically, our habits support a behavior pattern set off by a trigger or reminder.
Simply look for current habits you now have on autopilot and use them as a note for those you would like to build up again.
1. Don’t be Too Gadget-Dependent
It disconnects you from people. It disturbs your natural process of even waking up in the morning. Gadgets and Applications should be given an appropriate place and not inside our hearts and home. Apart from essential apps and gadgets that actually help you, remove all things fun. It takes your time, collects your data and does no good.

1. Don’t be a Judgmental Person
Being judgmental towards people should be avoided. You like it you take it else leave it. Being overly critic is also another way of judging which is to be avoided. Don’t conclude things yourself. Don’t assume everything yourself.
2. Learn from other people’s Lives & Mistakes
It helps you gain control over things that you can avoid to become better in life. Know success stories and failure stories and learn from them.

in order to improve your life, start by taking care of yourself. The best investment you will make in this life is ‘You’. Make the best out of it by taking yourself physically and mentally.

In a similar manner, treat your own self with respect. Respecting own-self is a very essential quality in proving one’s life.
5. Revisit & Retrospect
How do you need it if you are doing well or lagging behind in life? Revisiting and retrospection is the apt answer. Retrospection brings clarity to your next actions. Revisiting helps in cherishing good memories. It helps in learning lessons from mistakes made.
6. Quality Matters. No Quantity
Whatever you do, let it be quality work. Quantity becomes the least whereas the quality becomes the best. This principle can help you improve your life.
1. Take Criticisms from Trusted Circle
Most trusted people in your life are the best people to get criticisms from. Criticisms from your trusted friend, family member, loved ones are worth considering. They can easily recognize what’s happening because of you and how you are. Other than that, if there’s a genuine criticism (ignore the tone here) that really points to any downsides from you, take it.
2. Be an Open-Minded Individual
Be open to people. Open-mindedness brings a more positive approach while being close-minded only enhances a negative approach. Being open means you are ready to accept badly the same way as good. Whereas, being close-minded only makes you feel like everything is about you in a negative way.

Good friends can improve your life tremendously. One of the best ways to improve your life is to develop good friendships and holding on to it.

In pursuit of your passions gives you altogether uplifting life experience and improvement. Nothing seems more exciting than pursuing what you want. Whatever it takes, be in pursuit of getting what you want in life.
1. Observe where your “focus” is:
To know where your focus is important. Observe where your focus is. Shift your focus from things that do not do any good especially when it comes to mental wellness. Similarly, observe your focus when it comes to the professional side. Start focusing on career, friends, and family. This focus brings good improvement in your life.

Be flexible in life. Don’t be stubborn. It only brings more troubles in life. Being stubborn brings denial in accepting mistakes.

Loyalty is the biggest strength you need to improve your life. Be loyal. In the same way, imagine how it is going to be when you don’t have any loyal people around you. Give Loyalty. It returns back.
5. Honor you’re Present:
There is no wonderful thing than the ‘present.’ The present is where you can clearly see who you are and where you are in life. Honoring and accepting your present brings more positivity. Accepting the present gives clarity to focus on the next step. Otherwise, if you don’t look at the present and keep worrying about the future or past, things go sideways.
6. Gratitude:
Gratitude improves and uplifts your life. Without gratitude, you will not be able to see your blessings. Gratitude improves life during difficult times. We can see people following Gratitude Journaling every day. Follow the practice of gratitude, and you can see so many improvements in life.
Know Thyself
To improve your life, you need to know yourself better. You need to know your good & bad sides, your actions, habits, how you are with friends, family, and relationships. A better understanding of who you are gives a good perspective on improving life.
Facing It
Unless you face everything, there’s no chance for improvement in life. Facing everything makes you stronger. You bring courage and confidence in yourself when you start to face life ahead. Instead, if you begin to hide, it is going to look like freedom. But, it is temporary and curtailed in reality. Hiding does no good in the long run of life.
Be True to Yourself
Be true to your actions, your career, and your thoughts. Be true to the people around you. Only staying true to own self helps in improving the standards of life. Else, if you keep cheating yourself, or stay un-true, then no good comes out of it. One cannot differentiate right from wrong if one is not true to self.
Having Goals
No matter the Size: Goals make you move forward in life. It keeps you encouraged. Have goals, and the size of it doesn’t matter. Similarly, no matter if it is short term or long term. To improve your life, bring some goals, work towards it. Stay motivated. In the end, you can see considerable changes and improvements in your life when you achieve the goal.
Being a Problem Solver
Let’s not become the person who looks for ways to escalate any problem. Be it at work or in personal life, we need more problem solvers and not escalators. Even if you cannot solve the problem, don’t be the one who triggers the problems. Problems solving is the best way to improve your life.
Irrespective of success and failures, one needs to keep improving his life. Life is improved one day at a time. A 60-year-old has something to learn about life like that of 20-year-olds. Life’s improvement is a constant process wherein you keep changing and correcting yourself for the good.
Apart from taking life’s philosophical approaches, you need real, perceptible, and practical habits that can improve your life day by day. Starting from waking up early, you have simple but game-changing habits that really improve your life.
