7 Habits That Will Improve Your Life....

1. Stop Sacrificing What You Want Most For What You Want Right Now.

It would be lovely to relax, watch a movie or a show, meet a friend for dinner, etc. instead of working longer on a project that needs attention.

2. Stop Making Excuses.

If you are looking for a reason/excuse not to do the right thing, you will surely find one. Part of taking ownership of your life and reflecting on how you got to an unhappy state is understanding how you are enabling your poor decisions.

3. Stop Taking Things Personally.

When someone makes a comment, gives unsolicited advice, or treats you poorly, unless you did something to merit a reaction, chances are the comment says more about the commenter than it does about you. Do not let people discourage you, or tell you who you are when they are not close to you.

4. Exercise.

If you need to feel better at this moment, go change your clothes and go get some exercise. Endorphins make you happy; they release stress and help clear your mind.

5. Eliminate Distractions.

If you find yourself wasting a lot of time staring at various screens, constantly checking social media or mindlessly doing things on your phone, start trying to monitor those habits and change them.

6. Stop Playing The Victim.

You are not a victim of every whim and circumstance, you do have some control over your life at any given time. It is about how you wield that control that determines whether you change your circumstances.

7. Face Fear

Any wildly successful person has failed, sometimes on a massive, humbling scale. No one who is successful will ever judge you for failing, so start summoning your courage and stop being afraid to work hard and fail. The only people who will ever judge you are people who have not failed themselves, usually because they've made incredibly safe choices.
