Most human beings have the drive inside them to live their life to the fullest potential. The hard part is deciding how to begin the journey. Fortunately, a mirror can help! This very important journey to becoming a better person all begins with a look in the mirror. An honest look at yourself can help unlock the new you and give you life that you desire.
First of all, get out a mirror, a piece of paper and a pen. You will need to look into the mirror and talk to yourself. While talking to yourself, ask questions to yourself. Yes, it seems a little strange, but it will help you learn more about yourself as a person.
Questions To Ask Yourself
What bad habits do I have? Sometimes it is hard to be honest, but it is crucial if you want to become a better person. Think of things you do in life that are harmful to you or others and that you can quit. Once you figure out what these things are, make a plan to stop these habits. Write down these habits and your plan that way you can look back at it when you need some motivation or a reminder.
What would make me happy? Are you truly happy or are you just going through life and faking it, not actually living it? Take a good look in the mirror and talk to yourself about your happiness. Tell yourself what it is that would make you happy. It is important to be realistic here. Sure, who wouldn’t like a maid or perfect children, but you are looking for things within yourself that would help you to be happier. Do you need to become more organized? Do you need to eliminate a stressful friend? Be honest and write down the things you think would help make your life happier.
Do you have goals for yourself? What goals do you have for yourself? They do not have to be huge, outlandish goals, but it is important to have something to strive for. Set goals for yourself and write them down. Research shows that those who record their goals are more likely to meet them. Your goal could be as simple as wake up five minutes earlier or it could be something as big as lose fifty pounds. Set goals in all areas of your life. You can set goals in your personal life, relationships, spiritual life, career and any other area of your life that you want. Do not ever underestimate the power of setting and writing down goals. Everyone needs something to strive for.
What can you do to reach your goals? Write down a plan that will help you reach the goals you have set for yourself. If you feel like you need help, don’t be afraid to seek it out.
Looking at yourself in the mirror and being honest with yourself is a great way to become the person you want to be.
