The modern rhythm of life is built in such a way that it simply does not even allow us to think about the fact that we may not be moving quite where we need to. Just do the math: the average working day is 8 hours, the average sleep is another eight hours. From the remaining eight, subtract travel time from / to work, food, cooking, cleaning the apartment, shopping at the store. Even if we consider that a person does not have any very time-consuming addiction like watching TV shows or computer games, then he has at best an hour or two a day left for self-development.
This is provided that the person has a clear daily routine and there are no various useless waste of time. If a person is densely and often sits on social networks or is fond of watching TV content, then he simply does not have time to even think about his life, its vector.
Is this happening by accident? Probably not.
A person is deliberately loaded with information and vanity in order to fill that void in life, which is a lever that pushes a person to cognize himself, the world around him, and most importantly, to those issues that call into question the prevailing system of values. That is why in our society all sorts of destructive "traditions" are actively implanted, such as "sleeping off" on weekends and spending the rest of the day watching TV.
That is, even on his legal day off, a person does not have time to at least sit in silence and think about his life and his path. However, everyone is the creator of his own destiny and the artist of the landscape of his life. We all live in that reality where there are 24 hours in a day, but some of us find time for self-development, and someone spends this time, for example, to bring to life some sophisticated recipes. Everyone has their own values.
But a simple thing should be understood. What we spend our time on today, tomorrow will determine the vector of our movement. Today we are in the same situation to which we applied our strength yesterday.
How to change your life for the better
Despite the fact that the situation is rather sad, you should not despair, because, as already mentioned above, each person has the power to change everything. And there is no such situation, which could not be influenced, it is just a matter of effort and time. If you have already realized that the vector of your movement in life is not leading you in exactly the right direction, this is already half the battle. To realize that you are moving in the wrong direction means already to create a reason for changes in your life. And here we should consider such a concept as "a healthy lifestyle."
In today's world, where even the brightest concepts are distorted, a healthy lifestyle is understood as anything: from professional sports to "moderate drinking".
It should be noted that a healthy lifestyle is a lifestyle that benefits both you personally and those around you.
If a person just monitors his health (and sometimes very strangely follows, for example, not disdaining alcohol), but at the same time his goals in life and his motivations are selfish, then to say that such a person is “healthy” in the full sense of the word, not necessary.
It would be logical to say that a healthy lifestyle is a lifestyle that excludes everything harmful. It is difficult to disagree with this.
What phenomena in our life can be called harmful? Alcohol, drugs, intoxicants, smoking - this is all clear, there is no particular sensation here. However, let's take a deeper look. If we talk more deeply about bad habits and harmful tendencies, then in essence everything that does not lead a person to development is harmful.
Thus, idle pastime like TV shows, meaningless conversations, gatherings at the table, excessive hobby for cooking (which sometimes takes all weekends) - these can also be called harmful things. The habit of being angry, using foul language, judging others, and gossiping also wastes our energy, distracts our attention and distracts from our true goals. Needless to say, these things won't do any good either? And in the framework of a healthy lifestyle, all this should be excluded.
Anything that does not lead to development, by definition, is harmful to us. Therefore, before taking any action, one should think: will this action lead to development? And if the answer is negative, then it is better to exclude this phenomenon from your life if possible. Always align your actions with your goals.
Agree: any action one way or another wastes our vital energy and it is simply unreasonable to spend it on something that will not lead us to some kind of positive result. It is worth noting that getting pleasure or entertainment, contrary to popular belief, is not a positive result, but rather the opposite. In general, a healthy lifestyle includes two important aspects: altruism and asceticism.
Our Universe is reasonable and fair, and if a person lives only for himself and he uses everything that he has only for pleasure and selfish purposes, then sooner or later the Universe will begin to limit him in his abilities and resources, because the supply of the "cancer cell" just impractical. As for asceticism, then, as the life experience of many shows, no one has yet achieved success on the spiritual path, indulging in pleasures and entertainment. Moreover, it is impossible to achieve success in a purely material sphere if you spend time and resources on pleasure and entertainment.
There are simply no examples to the contrary. So, the main guidelines in life should be altruistic motivation and an ascetic lifestyle. Such a concept as "ascetic lifestyle" also has a wide range of applications. For some, three cars in the garage is an austerity, because to drive the same car twice a week - imagine such a monstrous inconvenience and discomfort. Therefore, it should be noted here that asceticism is limiting oneself in needs to what is necessary from the point of view of objectivity. It should not at all be considered that asceticism is walking in rags, eating bread and water and living in a cave. But it is important to understand that any thing that you possess wastes your life energy, and you must have very good reasons to have this thing with you - these are just the foundations of a rational outlook on life, and nothing more. And if you need a car in order to perform your activities for the benefit of others, then it should be purchased, and it will not be a luxury. Experience shows that it is altruism and asceticism that can change life for the better, and you should always check your actions in accordance with these concepts. Just as a traveler, setting off on the road, checks his movement against a map of the area, so we should regularly correlate our life path with these two concepts.
What can you change in your life
Even understanding all these seemingly simple things at the level of the mind, it is still difficult to immediately change your life. Yes, in general, this is not required. As experience shows, if a person begins to abruptly change the course of his movement, then according to the "principle of a pendulum" he returns him back, and sometimes throws him even further than he was at the time of the beginning of changes in his life.
Therefore, you should not show fanaticism and drastically change something: quit your job, stop communicating with former friends who lead a different lifestyle, conflict with relatives on the topic of food, entertainment, leisure, and so on.
Start small: track what bad habits or negative tendencies in your mind you have.
You can just write down on paper everything that you do regularly, and honestly ask yourself the question: "What result will this lead to?" If you think deeply on this topic, then you can clearly make a list of those things that are best removed from your life. And further, it is important to form a clear intention to move in this direction. It is important to understand that habits are formed over the years, or even decades, and “start life on Monday”, let's be realistic, is unlikely to succeed.
Imagine a situation where a person decides to start running in the morning. Someone inspired him, maybe some of his friends started running, maybe he read on the Internet about how useful it is, or just wanted to quickly lose weight. And so a man, showing incredible willpower, gets up at six in the morning and starts running 5-10 km at once. Perhaps he will even succeed in this in the first days and the body even quickly adapts, and at the physical level he will somehow survive it. But his psyche will simply not be able to withstand such drastic changes and, experiencing such austerity for a week, one morning his mind will simply arrange a “strike”, his hand will angrily throw the alarm clock, and the whole healthy lifestyle will end there. The thing is that our oxpower also has a margin of safety, and it is very rash to hope that it will withstand any loads. And if the person from the example above began to run 2-3 kilometers a day, and even not every day, but three times a week, then his mind would gradually get used to such a load that a person could eventually increase and subsequently achieve the result is ten kilometers daily. It would take a little longer, but it would also be a long-term success.
It is also worth recalling the “21st day rule”. According to this concept, a new habit forms neural connections in the brain and takes root in human behavior during the 21st day. That is, it is enough to bring something new into your life (but, again, without too abrupt movements) and perform this action not for 21 days without interruption. This will allow the new habit to take root and become your new behavior. It's the same with old habits: stop doing any harmful action during the 21st day - and the neural connection in the brain, if it doesn't break at all, will weaken, and this will allow you to eliminate the bad habit from your life. This simple rule works with almost all dependencies.
How to change your life: where to start
Where to start changes in your life and how to do it so that everything does not end, as in the case of a novice athlete, an example of which is described above? First of all, you should create motivation for yourself. The person in our example gave up jogging for two reasons: first, he made changes in his life too dramatically, but much more importantly, the second: he obviously had no motivation. What's wrong with motivation? Experience shows that motivation, which is aimed at bringing benefits not only to oneself, but also to others, is many times stronger.
If, for example, this person (a novice runner) had a lazy, overweight friend who needed to be taught to run in the morning, keeping him company, most likely he would not quit jogging, because he would be responsible to his friend and understanding that retreating now means harming not only yourself, but also your friend. And, in fact, such motivation is very strong and keeps a person on the way, even when all the forces have left him and despair has covered his head. Understanding that you need to make an effort not only for yourself, but also for the sake of others, gives additional strength.
How do you create this motivation? When a person begins to change, everything around him changes, including the people who surround him. Thus, if you realize that you are not living quite adequately, and you understand that your environment is also going in the wrong direction in life, then you can create excellent motivation - to induce by personal example those around you to change your life. And then, you will see, it will be much more difficult to give up on everything. And changes can affect everything: nutrition, bad habits, lifestyle, professional activity. If you can make changes in at least one of the areas of your life, believe me, this will entail global positive changes.
Even the transition to health food: the rejection of unhealthy foods, meat, alcohol, sugar, coffee, etc. can change our consciousness. After all, as it was said long before us: "We are what we eat." And, if our food becomes more blissful, positive changes will not be long in coming: suddenly thoughts will arise to do something positive for others, do, for example, yoga or just even start smiling at neighbors and colleagues.
Start small. From the very little thing. And according to the domino principle, the smallest change in the course of your life will lead you to a completely different result. This is the simple secret to changing your life.
It is also worth noting that everything is conditioned by the law of karma, and if a person has created reasons in the past to change his life for the better, then he will subsequently have such an opportunity. Have you ever seen drunken alcoholics? Do you think they do not know that drinking is harmful?
They are simply not able to perceive this information, and this also happens for certain reasons. Experience shows that a person can take the path of self-development, and most importantly, successfully advance along it only if he himself helps others to develop. What goes around comes around. To develop yourself, you need to create reasons for this. Here a fair question may arise: "How to create such reasons?" Everything is very simple.
To face the knowledge that can pull a person out of this swamp of ignorance, inertia and lifelong lethargy, in which most people now live, a person should disseminate knowledge himself. It is important to understand what kind of knowledge we are talking about. It can be mistakenly believed that a teacher who gives knowledge to children at school will receive knowledge later. However, most of us have an approximate idea of what knowledge, and most importantly, in what form, teachers disseminate in schools, therefore, it is not necessary to say that this form of presenting knowledge and their quality will lead a person on the path of spiritual development.
What knowledge should be disseminated? First of all, knowledge about the law of karma. When a person is faced with the knowledge of the law of karma, he realizes that he himself created the reasons for his happiness and his suffering, and begins to perceive all life's difficulties as lessons, and not as injustice of the world around him. Related concepts follow from the concept of the law of karma: reincarnation and asceticism. When a person realizes that this life is not alone and one must live it with dignity, so that in the next life he does not wag his tail somewhere at the meat-packing plant, he begins to move towards development and here he is faced with such a concept as "asceticism" - voluntary self-restraint with a goal accumulating energy and improving your personality.
So, if you try to spread knowledge among people at least about karma and related concepts, then create yourself a reason for someone to tell you about this in your future life. Otherwise, most likely, you will not even have doubts that they are not telling the truth on TV and that you need to live somehow differently. And everyone who will talk to you about this in one way or another will be called “sectarians”. There are plenty of examples around.
And finally, it is worth noting that the changes in your life should benefit not only you, but also the people around you. Then these changes will be harmonious and will remain in your life for a long time. Because in any business, the most important thing is motivation. And if she is altruistic, you will succeed.
“Everyone wants something to happen and everyone is afraid
no matter how something happens. "
Okudzhava Bulat
Change is difficult. Most people want to change their lives in one way or another. But the catch arises either at the very beginning - it is difficult to take the first step, or later - it becomes difficult to maintain changes for a long time.
Despite this, after months of practice, I started to get it pretty well (although I made quite a few mistakes). Actually changes in life are great! I accept the changes in my life with great pleasure, not because I feel the need to improve my life, but because as a result of these very changes I learn new things. Constantly.
And if, one fine day, we decided to change something in life, then, undoubtedly, we face the fact of inevitable changes, and on the other hand, we experience incredible resistance within ourselves and among people around us. We want to change, and yet we don't. How can this dilemma be resolved?
Life changes are great!
It can be incredibly difficult, and it can be deliciously enjoyable. A difficult path, but everyone can easily find it.
There have been many changes in my life lately, and here are just a few of them, perhaps in some way you will recognize yourself.
- My wife and I have created our own website. It's great to have your own word and the Internet, friends, like-minded people. A great way to express yourself!
- Finally got used to driving. Before that, I did not have a car, but now I calmly cope with driving a car.
- Got rid of the bad habit. Smoking, whatever the WHO says, is not good.
- Passed Andreyev's speed reading courses. And now I am using this skill with pleasure, reading the next book.
- He completely abandoned the media. Previously, it would have been incredible for me, but now I do not understand how people can sit for hours at the TV.
- Engaged in network marketing. This is a wonderful type of business that opens your eyes to many things.
- I mastered the knowledge that is important for me - the knowledge of financial success. How nice it is to know that you are not dependent on the state.
Components of change in life.
What is the most pleasant way to make these or those changes in life? I have broken this question down into six points, many of which overlap with each other, albeit vaguely outlined. However, they are helpful in terms of how to bring potential changes to your life.
And the last thing. If you are serious about changing anything in your life, be prepared to make mistakes. I am not saying this to dissuade you from changing your life, but to get rid of your fear of mistakes. If you know it is possible, then take it easy. Mistakes are an inevitable part of change. And, actually, it's great - without making mistakes, we wouldn't learn anything. By failing, responding correctly, realizing what happened and drawing appropriate conclusions, you will become stronger and wiser. You have become more experienced for the next try. Find the positives in every attempt, in every win, in every failure, and positive changes in life will be your reward!
Changes in education
Big changes are taking place as we move towards an information society in education. One of the fundamental problems facing modern education is to make it more accessible to everyone. This accessibility has economic, social and technological aspects.
At the same time, the problems of building the education system in the information society are not limited to technologies. By virtue of its dynamism, this society will require from its members continuous, over the course of tens of years, training. This will allow a person to keep up with the times, be able to change profession, take a worthy place in the social structure of society. In this regard, even a new concept arose: “the principle of lifelong professional development”. Economically developed countries have already embarked on the path of creating a system of continuous education, including preschool and school education, vocational education, a system of professional retraining and advanced training, additional education (sometimes non-formal), etc. The level of quantitative and qualitative development of the educational system makes it possible to judge the degree of advancement of the country along the path to the information society.
The formation of the information society has a significant impact on the daily life of people. From the examples already available, one can foresee that the changes will be profound. Thus, the massive introduction of television in the 60s and 70s of the twentieth century significantly changed the way of life of people, and not only for the better. On the one hand, millions of people have the opportunity to access the treasures of national and world culture, on the other hand, live communication has decreased, more stereotypes implanted by television and television have appeared, and the reading circle has narrowed.
Let us consider the individual components of the way of life, analyzing what has already taken place and what is being born in our time.
Job. According to a sociological survey conducted in the United States, already now up to 10% of workers can do their job without leaving their home, and 1/3 of all newly registered firms are based on the widespread use of self-employment, not associated with a regular visit to the office.
Studies. In a number of countries, the number of children not attending school but being homeschooled through computer programs and telecommunications is increasing. If this tendency develops, then the school faces the most serious danger since its formation in the form of a mass public institution. If we take into account that the school not only teaches, but also instills in children the skills of socialization, social behavior, then such a development causes a certain concern.
Leisure activities is changing before our eyes. Computer games, already taking a significant amount of time for some people, are being transformed into network games with the participation of several remote partners. The time spent on “walking” on the Internet without a specific purpose, as well as on so-called “chat”, with not very meaningful exchange of messages, is growing. At the same time, educational trips to educational sites, virtual museums, etc. are being implemented. As mentioned above, information culture is only a part of the culture of a common humanity, and the form of spending leisure time is determined primarily by the general culture of a particular person.
A recent advancement in internet technology is shopping trip real goods to a virtual online store - is already beginning to noticeably affect the trading system.
Human dwelling tends to increasingly "informatization". Houses are already being commissioned, in which instead of a wiring harness (electrical wiring, telephone, telephone, television, security and fire alarms, etc.), there is only one power cable and one information cable. The latter assumes all information communications, including the provision of many cable TV channels, Internet access, etc. A special electronic unit in such an apartment will control all devices, including household appliances and life support systems, and help the inhabitant of the apartment live as comfortably as possible. Such a house is called “smart”.
Since for many people the car has become an extension of their habitat, the emergence of “ smart cars ” also important. Such a car, in addition to the already obligatory microprocessor devices serving its technical part, is constantly connected with the city information services, suggesting the most optimal route at the moment (taking into account the busyness of the tracks). At the same time, the “smart” car is connected with the “smart home” of its owner, and this house can be controlled from it.
Often people feel a desire to change their usual way of life, which stopped bringing joy.
To become, it is enough to take a few simple steps.
What is a lifestyle?
Lifestyle Is an elaborated individual system of distributing one's time for various types of activity.
This concept includes the whole range of spheres of human life: with loved ones, personal relationships, demeanor, attitude to sports, leisure options, health care, moral principles, faith, etc.
The type of life gives rise to a certain behavior style, rules, habits and rituals. Its formation is significantly influenced by historical, geographical, national, age, professional aspects.
So, the conditions of existence of an Asian and a European are significantly different, even under the condition of the same age, profession, etc. It is also impossible to compare the professional duties of a doctor in the 18th century and a specialist in the 21st century.
Accordingly, a person cannot fully determine all aspects of his activity, the habitat leaves a big imprint on the formation of his personal attitudes.
Lifestyle is not only an individual but also a group characteristic. It can unite or entire generations.
Types and examples
Basis of classification can serve as socio-cultural norms, goals, professional achievements, the desire for material wealth, attitude to family values, etc.
You can often hear about the following lifestyles:
- Strict... A person seeks to demonstrate that meets all existing norms. He will never do anything forbidden or illegal. He adheres to common sense in his actions. A similar attitude towards one's personality is transferred to others, to whom certain requirements are imposed. Any non-compliance with the norms of behavior or non-fulfillment of duties is considered by a strict person from an exclusively negative point of view.
For example, it is not uncommon for large leaders, who are accustomed to be organized and demanding of others at work, to carry this behavior into their personal lives.
- Rampant... In this case, the individual does not think at all about what impression he makes on others. Negative actions of others also do not cause him much condemnation. The main meaning of life is to get momentary pleasures. In the first place are entertainment, communication, all kinds of joys. Any duty is considered an unwanted hindrance.
This behavior is often demonstrated by young people who do not have financial problems thanks to their wealthy parents. The absence of the need to take care of one's material well-being, the absence of clear goals in life gives rise to the desire for constant entertainment. - Ordered... In this case, the individual exists in strict accordance with the order established by him. All duties are completed on time, and any events are planned in advance. A person tries to organize his existence in such a way that the probability of unforeseen events is reduced to zero. It should be noted that this lifestyle is not always a conscious choice. Often this happens under the pressure of external circumstances.
For example, a young girl may start to lead an orderly life after the birth of her baby due to the need to adhere to the daily routine of the baby. Her every day will be no different from the previous one.
- Ascetic... The individual is of the opinion that life should be as simple and modest as possible. Most of the material goods and achievements of mankind do not interest him. All his desires are reduced to the satisfaction of basic, psychological and. Many amenities and entertainment are viewed as surplus without which one can live freely.
Such self-denial is associated with the desire to free the soul from the harmful influence of the external environment, to gain maximum independence from those imposed by society. A real ascetic who has given up the benefits of civilization can have only a few pieces of furniture in his home, wear the same clothes for a long time, eat the simplest foods solely to support life, etc. - Healthy... Such a lifestyle presupposes proper nutrition, adherence to hygiene standards, a passion for sports, good sleep and rest. Healthy lifestyle supporters do not consume alcoholic beverages, do not smoke or are addicted to drugs.
They care about the health of their body and do not accept any negative influences on it.
A typical supporter of healthy lifestyles is a young man who visits the gym several times a week, does not have bad habits, adheres to the principles of proper nutrition, spends a lot of time in the fresh air, regularly undergoes preventive examinations by specialists.
- Modern... An individual who successfully adapts to the conditions that society dictates to him fits into the image of a modern person.
He uses the achievements of civilization, is in the know, shares fashion trends and fulfills. At present, the modern type of existence is often understood as the pursuit of material goods, the desire for professional achievements, the ability to understand fashion trends and technical innovations.
How is it determined?
The lifestyle of a particular individual can be determined by a number of structural components:
- value benchmarks(norms of behavior, moral principles, attitudes);
- behavior model(habits, rituals, ways of interacting with others);
- cognitive ability(ideas about the world, striving for knowledge, stereotypes);
- communication skills(manner of communicating with others);
- life goals(material benefits, professional development, family relations, spiritual development).
The constituents
This concept includes the following elements:
It should be noted that for most people, the phrase "lifestyle" associated with ideas about leisure.
When people ask the interlocutor the appropriate question, they want to hear about how the person spends his free time. In fact, this concept is much broader.
How can I change it?
Often there is a thought that the current life is no longer satisfying.
This can be caused by boredom, daily routine, an abundance of household chores, lack of room for self-realization, etc.
More often than not about the desire to change something in life appears in people who have no interest in their work and those who are unhappy in family life.
The personality must constantly be in development: gain useful experience, acquire new skills, expand your horizons, etc. The desire to change the way of life indicates the need for self-development, self-improvement.
A person at such a moment comes to understand that he is wasting his time and energy on solving issues that do not arouse any interest in him.
To change your lifestyle, you need to do the following:
So, a person's lifestyle is reflected in his behavior, interests, values and activities. To achieve inner harmony, you need to define the desired goals and strive to achieve them.
Healthy lifestyle and health psychology:
The ideal lifestyle is not a myth, but quite achievable. Everyone can live as he dreams, and in fact lives. In fact, each of us lives as he chooses. We become aware of this when we compare ourselves to others or do things we don't want to.
Having the opportunity to see the picture of your life as a whole and realizing that this is not exactly how you want to live your life, you realize the fact that everything can be different, better. Then we ask ourselves the question, "How do I want my life to be?" and "What do I want to fill it with?"
These are the very first steps towards change. The very door to a new life. This is not about perfectionism at all. And about not doing boring work, not doing things that do not inspire and not wasting opportunities and time.
So, in order to take the best from life, do what really brings joy, become someone you will be proud of, help others and spend more time on those who are really dear, create new things, give and share ... and just be happy and filled with every day, do it.
1. Determine what is the ideal lifestyle for you
First, answer two questions: "How do I want my life to be?" and "What do I want to fill it with?" Answer them as fully and honestly as possible, as soon as you can, since this will be the definition of what you want from life and who you want to become. After a while, it will become your reality.
The important thing to remember is accepting that you must change yourself in order to change your lifestyle. Many people make the mistake of starting to change the world around them, forgetting that key changes take place first in ourselves. Therefore, remember this and develop those qualities that you need to develop in order to become the person whose lifestyle you want to lead.
2. Remove excess
Without this step, you won't get far. Because now your life is simply filled with the fact that it does not allow you to move on. These can be people, negative thoughts, events, habits, and so on. All you need to do is get rid of the extra burden, it has no place at all in your ideal lifestyle.
3. Realize what is good for you
Now that you've got rid of unnecessary baggage, take another step in your own development. And it's time to do as much trial and error as possible. What is meant? This is what you have to learn to distinguish between what works for you, what works for you and what doesn't.
The best way to find out is to act with as many attempts as possible and preferably with mistakes. Experience is said to be the best teacher. Mistakenly, one day you will probably know whether it is yours and whether it is worth moving in the chosen direction at all. Experiment.
Only by trying will you understand what kind of sport brings you results, what food satisfies your hunger and is most beneficial, what time of day is the best for productivity; habits that need to be established, how you want to look, speak and relate to the environment.
You can understand that getting up at 5 a.m. is not your habit, and it has to do with productivity, although most successful people start their day like that. But the time of your personal activity falls on lunch time or even in the evening. We are all different, so act on your instincts and do what is good for you.
Try different sleep habits, your most active hours for work, behaviors, motivational strategies, and so on with anything you feel like experimenting with. Find yours and follow it.
4. Get basic habits
Foundational habits kick-start a whole host of new good habits. Getting up early gives you the opportunity to eat breakfast, exercise in the morning, and start the day in a positive way. This usually leads to reading affirmations and writing notes.
For example, going to the gym every day helps me to be in shape. After, I always take a contrast shower, which allows me to stay active. The sooner you develop positive habits, the better. Once you introduce these habits into life, your life will reach a significantly qualitative level. Work on the main one first, and the minor is transformed after it.
Here is a list of basic habits to start your transformation with:
- daily exercise,
- meditation,
- healthy food,
- early rise,
- plan for every next day in the evening.
These habits have been proven to work wonders, and it's important to stick to them no matter what. Create habits that will stay with you for life, whether you are on vacation, whether it was a good day, and even when everything seems meaningless.
5. Find your passion
This is possible if you listen to your inner voice, concentrate on what you like to do and try new things. The point is not only to understand what makes you happy, but also to start following it, to learn to be the best at it and to make it an integral part of life. This strategy will fill your life with meaning, bring a sense of satisfaction, and never let you doubt that you are doing your own thing.
6. Make it your job
This is where you really have to work. But with the difference that now you will be doing what you really love, so it won't be quite a job.
If you want to be a writer, write as much as you can every day. Try to improve in this while learning to promote yourself. If you are a lover of training in the gym, improve and reach the heights. Pump up your body. Explore this niche thoroughly, get possible certifications and awards. Become a personal trainer and help others achieve the desired result.
Thus, you will surround yourself with people who are striving for change and will be able to spend all your time in the hall. Or maybe even open your own.
Once you start doing what really makes you happy, working on it, dedicating time, energy, effort and faith in your success, you can turn your passion into your work. And it will be a truly perfect job. Which should be for someone who wants to lead an ideal lifestyle.
7. Determine how much time you want to spend working
Organize your work so that you work every other week, several hours a day, or 4 days a week. But this, of course, will be after you have really done a good job building your business (it will take at least a year) and have built a system of work in the necessary way.
8. Travel more often
Traveling is one of the best things in life. And it's important to do this at least once or twice a week. Better yet, every two to three months. Most people travel to distract themselves from problems or escape from reality. But since you are building a new, ideal lifestyle, you do not need to hide from reality.
Travel to explore the unknown, the unusual and not miss the beauty that the world has to offer us. So you can discover your new sides, learn more about other cultures and enjoy the beauty of the world. This way, your life will never be boring.
9. Get a hobby
Understand what else you like to do, and devote time to it.
10. Keep your nose downwind
Don't miss a single opportunity to learn and try something new. It doesn't matter who you are at the moment and what your income is, there is always something to learn around. Don't neglect your spirit world. Meditate, read books, find inspiration in everything.
11. Be open to new things
Try to do something new, unusual, and what you fear several times a month. It can be talking with a stranger, skydiving, scuba diving, performing in front of a large audience, dancing, visiting new countries, mastering new sports. All of this will fill life with unique experiences and make it even more exciting.
12. Give and be grateful
Sharing is the best investment possible and provides much more than buying new things. Learn to give others as much as you can, be it advice, help, inspiration, money, or things you don't need. Volunteer and do charity work. Also, remember to be truly grateful. Each step on a lifelong journey must be filled with acceptance and gratitude.
Anything you have, even if it's not so much, is beautiful in itself and should make you feel deeply grateful. Try to experience this feeling in relation to all people, events and things that occur on your path in life.
It may take some time to build your ideal lifestyle, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. In fact, anyone can do it. Burning faith, desire and perseverance is enough. In the end, you will realize that all those efforts were worth it. And enjoying every moment of life is the main commandment of those who already live in their own ideal way.
