3 Keys to Self-Improvement
Self-improvement
is a very important aspect of our lives. Different people want to improve in
various ways; some want to improve in their weights, some want to improve in a
particular skill they have while others just want to improve in the amount of
wealthy they pride themselves to own. Whichever the case may be,
self-improvement is a gradual process. Moreover, if there two things that have
to accompany it are motivation and determination. Without these things, one’s
self improvement efforts might just go down the drain. In order to make sure
this does not happen, there are three key things that one has to do and have.
Inspiration is the very first thing. This
is one very key thing in self-improvement. It will help you stay focused and
will play a major role in motivating you. In most cases, most people are
motivated in the initial stages only. This implies that they start when psyched
up but drop out in the middle of the process. Inspiration is the cure to this
disease. It will keep you going on and on. However, inspiration exists in
various ways. It can be high or low. When low, self-improvement might seem to
be some load that one is forced to bear. If it is high, self-improvement will
seem to be more of a goal that one is obliged to achieve. In fact, inspiration
will help you continue with your self-improvement process even when you come
across rough patches. Some may wonder what the inspiration in this case is.
Becoming a better person is more than enough to help you follow up the
self-improvement process to the end.
Secondly, set some goals that you expect
to achieve by becoming an improved person. By goals, I mean both short term and
long term goals. Short term goals will help you in the step by step process.
Set short term goals that will guide you in the improving process. They will
act as stepping-stones towards self-improvement. On second thought, long term
goals will help you access the extent to which you have succeeded in improving
yourself. They will gauge your performance and will let you know what is
expected to finish the whole process. They will also give you something to look
up to once you clear the whole process. Lastly, networking with people of whom
you are in the same process with will take you a long way in your improvement
process.
