We all want better circumstances and a better life. But are we unwilling to improve ourselves? Our circumstances can only change if we are willing to change ourselves. You have every opportunity to change your circumstances. You have the power to decide to do something differently than you have been to rewrite your life. You can single handedly change the trajectory of your life with simply being willing to change and improve yourself. And guess what? You don’t need anyone else to do this for you. In fact, you should want to do this for yourself. No one else.

You’re one good meal, one trip to the gym, one journaling session, one good day at work away from getting on the trajectory you want to be on. You have the opportunity to live this life how you want to live it, you are enough RIGHT NOW, it’s already in you. You got this.

70%-80% of your day is living on autopilot. You should figure where that autopilot is taking you. 

What you do on autopilot is predicated on your habits, and your habits have the ability to lead you down unproductive and unhealthy roads.

 

Small changes to your current habits will eventually lead to new habits. You need to make sure that the small subtle changes aren’t going to eventually lead you to new unhealthy, unwanted habits. If your habits put you on autopilot, those habits need to be healthy and productive.

 

Sometimes you are thrusted into unknown and new environments. It’s in those moments that you need to be diligent to ensure you’re setting great habits to avoid the risk of destructive autopilot.

When you want to start setting healthy boundaries, set them for yourself before you start setting them for others. The more you set them for yourself the more people around will live to those boundaries and standards. They’re going to see what you’re willing to tolerate.

 

Start looking inward first. Stop trying to project onto others and stop playing victim to external forces. We have the power to set the standards for ourselves. For example if you’re a parent and you ask your kids to make their bed, they probably won’t take your request seriously if you don’t make your own bed. And if you walk around with a frown on your face, why would others greet you with a smile. We have to set the standards first and others will live up to them.

 

You’re in control.

Your past is’t predictive of your future. It’s only predictive if your behaviour stays the same In an instant you have the ability to change the future. You can learn from your current behaviour and figure out what changes you need to make to change your future. Our beliefs drive our behaviours and our behaviours drive our results. This is true both positively and negatively. 

 

By believing you are something, your behaviour will reflect the belief. So if you want to be healthier, you have to create an inner belief that you are healthier and your behaviour will reflect that belief and you’ll become healthier. If you want more wealth, decide where in your life you want to be wealthy and create an inner belief that you are wealthy and your behaviour will reflect that belief and you’ll become wealthier. 

 

How you behave will dictate your future and your behaviour stems from your beliefs.

Balance doesn’t exist. We’re halfway doing everything. We aren’t fully committed to doing whatever it is we’re doing. We’re always thinking about doing something else or half way doing something else while doing another thing. What our goal should be is to be 100% committed to what it is that we’re doing during the time we are doing it. If we are spending time with loved ones, put your phone away and focus on your loved ones. If you’re in the gym, don’t worry about what’s on TV or your phone or be walking around. Just get there and be productive and 100% committed to achieving a good workout.

What do you say to yourself on a daily basis? Are the words you’re using and what you’re saying to yourself holding you back from becoming the best version of yourself? What you say to yourself matters.

Make sure your inner narrative is healthy and productive. Start choosing your words wisely because if you don’t they will be seriously detrimental to your mental health. Show yourself love just like you would show your loved ones love.

An actionable tip to get started changing your inner narrative today is to look at who you allow to be around you in your life. If you find that someone is holding you back, they may be affecting your inner narrative. Think about slowly removing yourself from their company.

We often look for external validation. Meaning we look for approval from somebody or something. But be careful with thinking this way. If we rely on external validation too much, we can start to get attached to an external outcome.

There are people who live to please the people around them. That’s why there are people who drive an expensive car but still live paycheck to paycheck. They are so dependent on getting external validation from others, they think that they need the car. But what they really need is to buy a cheaper car and make sure they’re better set up financially.

We are all worth it and amazing. The sooner you can feel this way about yourself the sooner you won’t need validation from the people around you. You’ll start to do things that you feel good about regardless of what people think of you. One of the healthiest things you can do for yourself is live for YOU and no one else.

Think back to a time in your life when you overcame an obstacle. Because you were able to get through those times, you’ve actually strengthened your mind. You now have the ability to call on those strengths to help get through future obstacles and hard times.

Think about the world today. It is almost nothing like what it was ten years ago. And think about the world ten years before that. The only thing is certain that evolution will occur. Things will change. Don;t resist this. Embrace the changes and adapt to them while implementing what you’ve learned from your past. You can’t adapt well if you're too caught in how you think things must be.

Everyday the things you do, the people you choose to be around, the emails you respond to, what you’re watching on TV, what content you’re consuming on the internet and even by not choosing, dictates your future.

Understanding this concept makes it easy to change your future. All you have to do is take some time and take a look at your actions throughout your day. Identify what actions are holding you back and what ones are healthy and productive. Then replace the actions that don’t serve you happiness with actions that help you to be your optimal self.

Start small by changing your actions one at a time. Eventually your day will fill with healthy actions that you consciously decided to incorporate into your life.
