You wanna "grow" in life, and change your perspective positively about life. You eagerly seek to improve yourself and become better, this post if for you
Asides maybe godliness,There is nothing more meaningful than pursuing a life of development and betterment. It is through improving ourselves that we get the most out of life.The journey of self development is endless, this is more or less the "tip of the iceberg.
1. Read a book every day:
This has been said many times, i just wanna reiterate the statement.Books are "banks" of wisdom. The more books you read, the more wisdom you exposeyourself to. What are some books you can start reading to enrich yourself? They are many of them out there by great writers whether motivational, spiritual,comic, fictional, just keep reading.
2.Learn a New Language:
I realized learning a language is a whole new skill altogether and the process of acquainting with a new language and culture is a totally a mind-opening experience. Personally, I speak Igbo, Hausa English and a bit of Fulani and I know the privileges I enjoy with this skill. I also have the chance to relate perfectly with these cultures and appreciate their diversity.
3. Pick up a New hobby:
Learning something new requires you to stretch yourself in different aspects, whether physically,
mentally or emotionally. I have also defaulted in this aspect as the only hobby I know I have is "playing and watching football".
There are a plethora of hobbies out there you can pick from that will have a positive effect on your life: web design, swimming, scrabbling, etc
4: Overcome Your Fears:
All of us have one fear or the other in life. Fear of failure, uncertainty, public speaking, etc.
I see these fears as a revelation of those aspects of our lives we need to work on for a quicker manifestation of the "hero" in us.
The fear of public speaking is one fear I have battled with and still battling with in my life, and it has denied me some key opportunities. Hopefully, I sight light at the end of the tunnel.
5.CreateTime for exercise:
Yes! Exercise. Your body needs it. A productive person must have a sound mind and great physical shape; else your productivity amounts to nothing.
6. Get out of your comfort zone:
Real growth comes with hard work and sweat. Being too comfortable doesn’t help us grow – it makes us
stagnate and languish.
What is your comfort zone? Do you stay in most of the time? Do you feel nervous and uncomfortable about meeting and talking to people, especially the opposite sex? Shake
your routine up. Do something different. By
exposing yourself to a new challenge, you’re literally growing as you learn to act in new circumstances.
7. Acknowledge your flaws:
Everyone has flaws.
What’s most important is to understand them,
acknowledge them, and address them. What do
you think are your flaws? What are the flaws you can work on now? How do you want to address them? The quicker you do this, the better you become in life.
8. Avoid negative people:
Negative people are those people that work against your goals in life, whether directly or indirectly.Wherever we go, there are bound to be negative people. Don’t spend too
much of your time around them if you feel they drag you down, except if you wanna be a negative person yourself in no time after all, birds of a feather.......
9.Get a mentor:
It will be much easier to be guided in your goal for personal development. A mentor must have succesfuly treaded the path you desire to follow and is like a searchligt or a beacon that will guide you to your goal.
10. Learn from your friends:
Everyone has unique and amazing qualities in them. It’s up to how we want to tap into them.
With all the friends who
surround you, they are going to have things you can learn from them. Try to befriend excellent folks that can positively impart your life.
This helped me a great deal back in my collegiate days when I had to borrow leaves from the lifestyles of some of my friends.
