6 Ways To Become A ‘Better You’ You Can Be

Life can be so challenging that it can change who we are or who we intend to be. It can even destroy our goals. Daily, we struggle to be the best of who we can be but it seems as if some forces are blocking us. Such a challenge can deny us of our happiness, health and make us hate ourselves. It can make us feel weak, indecisive or lonely. But that is not how it supposed to be.

Though, developing or recreating a Better You is not that easy but we can still to some extent make ourselves to be comfortable and fulfilled with who we are. We can still surmount a life challenges and live the life we intend to live. We still have the power to change who we are and how others see us. You can become the new you. Above all. You can reconstruct yourself!!!

Are you disappointed in the kind of life that you are living? Are you facing any challenging? Are you looking for a solution on how to be a better you? Ok, don’t worry, you are at the right place to get the answers.

In this post, I will try to point out some certain things we must do to become the best of who we are. How you can be a better you

Listed below are the Ways To Become A ‘Better You’ You Can Be

1. Create your vision

When you create a vision, you have set a solid step of being a better you. I like it when I create a vision that I began calling it my “vision of self-image.” I mapped out at least 120 seconds per day to think about my vision during that period, I would psychologically prepare what I needed to do in the upcoming 24 hours to make sure I was moving myself in the direction of my vision.

So to be a better you, you must create a vision and works towards it, by doing that, you would literally see yourself making a good decisions.

2. Meditate on it

As I said above, firstly when I created my vision, I mapped out 120 seconds to think about it. As time goes on, I began to add another 120 seconds. I would spend a total of 240 seconds picturing how I wanted my life to be, and what I could achieve in the next 24 hours to help make my vision become a reality.

So in the other for you to make your vision stronger, you have to meditate on it daily and by doing so, you are building a foundation for a better you.

3. Have some people in your life who you admire

Yes, in other to be a better you, you must have someone that you are looking up to, someone you wish to be like. Am not saying that you should copy exactly what the person did but just some good part of the person’s character and how he became successful. As a student and also blogger, I have some people that am looking up to. Yes, I am admiring them and I want to be like them.

Therefore, check in the field of your vision the great people who have achieved and become successful. They could be friends, family, coworkers, or your romantic partner, for example. Write down their names.

4.Trigger your own wake-up call

I highly recommend the above exercise to anyone who is feeling uninspired in a job, monotonous about their relationships, unchallenged, dissatisfied, unhealthy, disenchanted, or any of combination of these descriptors.

When I did it, what I saw made me very sad. I pictured myself as slightly overweight, heavy-drinking, and, well, an underachieving, excuse-making chump of a man.

Still sitting in the sauna, I decided to presume instead how I wanted my life to be in five years.

What I saw made me smile. I imagined myself as a successful business professional, happily married, and healthy. I saw a man of honor and character who was proud of how his life was turning out.

Try it out and see for yourself.

5. Create your vision of self-image

I liked this vision so much that I began calling it my “vision of self-image.” I made a point to take 30 seconds per day to think about my vision.

Eventually, I began adding on another 30 seconds to think about “daily integrity.” In the “daily integrity” portion of my mental video, I would psychologically review what I needed to do in the upcoming 24 hours to make sure I was moving myself in the direction of my vision.

I would literally see myself making good decisions and doing what I needed to do throughout the upcoming day: anything from waking up at the right time, to completing my studies, to controlling my drinking and prioritizing exercise.

6. Do it every day

Every day, I would spend a total of 60 seconds picturing how I wanted my life to be, and what I could do in the next 24 hours to help make my vision become a reality.

Slowly but surely, I started doing better and better. I liked the changes I was making in my life…so much so that 15 years later, I still take the time to think about my vision and daily integrity.

All in all, it takes 60 seconds per day to complete, which honestly feels like a lot of work some days.

However, without knowing where you want your life to go, and without mentally rehearsing each day what it takes to get there, you are likely to end up as a person you don’t want to be. After all, how can you do well when you don’t even know what your goal is?

Conclusion

For whatsoever reason, I am built in a way that if I don’t put energy into achieving greatness, I turn out to be a chump. If you’re anything like me, you might want to consider putting 60 seconds per day into achieving your own level of greatness, if you want to become the person you want to be. Remember, the days you don’t feel like completing your vision and daily integrity mental rehearsal are the days you most need to do so. Trust me on this: it will be worth the time.
