Self-improvement means being dissatisfied with yourself all the time, but in the good sense of the word. Indeed, only with constant development can one come even a little closer to the ideal.
Step 1. Wise and productive morning
Morning! How much grace, tranquility, symbolism is in this word. This part of the day is the most significant and important. How you start your morning, with what thoughts and what mood, will determine how your whole day will go, and ultimately your whole life. In order to constantly develop and improve, you need a lot of time, and for this you should not waste it. Get up as early as possible, and not just because you have more time. If you start getting up earlier, then over time you will notice how your life and your emotions have changed. You will become much more energetic and active, and is not this a guarantee of productive human improvement? In addition, in the early morning there is some kind of magic, it is calm and this is the best time to reflect on where the further path of your development lies. But getting up early is not enough, it is also important to usefully spend the morning hours that you have. Be sure to have a hearty breakfast, your mood during the day also depends on what you eat for breakfast. Your best bet is to eat something healthy, such as oatmeal, yogurt, fruit, toast, and a boiled egg. After such a breakfast, you will not want to eat anything until lunch. After breakfast, do some exercises, so you will provide yourself with a charge of vivacity for the whole day.
Step 2. Planning
Like it or not, how many times everyone has not heard about the benefits of planning, so the majority have not implemented this useful habit. Meanwhile, this is the main guarantee of a productive day. In the morning or even in the evening of the previous day, write (just write, not just think) everything that you would like to do during the day. Let it be a long list that you may not be able to master, but in any case, if you strive to do this, the result will be much better than if you do not plan at all. Often a day passes, and what was actually done in its continuation of the useful, it is impossible to remember, although the person was busy with something all the time. That is why plan, and the moment you do the wrong thing, constantly mentally return to your list.
Step 3. Work is not a wolf
Anyone who does not know how to rest properly will not be able to work properly. Self-development is not only constant self-torture, it is also work on your own mental balance and the ability to relax and recharge at any necessary moment. Make time for yourself whenever you feel you need it. It can be anything that distracts you: sports, meditation, travel, pleasant spa treatments, caring for loved ones, watching a movie, even just idleness. It all depends on your preference. Remember, the best rest is a change of activity.
Step 4. Give it back
In the age of selfishness, people so need a kind word, advice or just a glance. In order for you to be able to fill your vessel with new energy, you need to learn to give away the old one. Do not skimp on giving this energy to all the people around you who deserve it. After all, after all, who needs self-improvement if it did not benefit anyone? And everything that you give to the world around you is reflected as in a mirror. And this is not a fairy tale, it is. A person's environment is what he is and what he deserves. Everyone can make this environment even better.
Step 5. Here and now
This is generally the problem of every person on earth. Either he is somewhere in the past, sorting out his mistakes, possible solutions, and so on, or all in dreams or worries about the future. It is very important to learn to rejoice in every second that occurs right now, to learn to feel the present moment and enjoy it. Many people like to torment themselves with thoughts like "what if". Just understand that they are all useless, and you are only wasting precious time on self-digging. And planning the future, although useful, but not to the detriment of the present.
