People in this fast-paced world think the fine way to look is: rich, busy, cool, and unbothered. However, do we enjoy doing this for ourselves or for the sake of others to think of us like that? A person will attain one's best self, when he is consistent, disciplined, lending hands to help others, turning a negative situation into a positive one, having a peaceful mind, and a lot more.
Everybody’s life is unique and each person has a different personality. To become better, first, you must have control over your mind. The mind plays a vital role to control the activity and thoughts that you have to execute or to think about. The values that the mind possesses must explore the passion and interest in one’s personality.
The inner thoughts and feelings of yourself must be in a positive way, people may think and feel afraid of others opinion and perspective. Ignoring others perspective, and having confidence and faith in one’s own decisions gives more strength to people’s mentality. Flush the greatest fear of being judged because it is a common nature of humans to make err, but learning from it is what keeps us moving forward.
Accept yourself as you are. Self-love is a prime factor one must carry. Everybody can leave you but you cannot leave yourself for anybody or anything. One must feel beauty in how people’s heart is and not in how they look outside. If you start loving yourself, you will not bother people who are toxic to you. Take care of yourself; no one is going to do that for you. Be self-motivated and do not look for your happiness in other people. Let go of things that do not give weightage in your life. Don’t hold grudges and ego, which can destroy you from within.
Many secrets are lying within us. Secrets cannot be found on their own we have to discover our hidden talents, which are used to bring out the best in us. Giving 100% potential in whatever we are important. We might have identified what we have to do but here comes a thing called procrastination which many of us do. We have to overcome this mindset and achieve what we have aimed for. So try to identify and explore yourself at a young age, this period in your life gives many challenges. As you face a challenge, you will also cumulate experiences.
The experiences we collect while becoming a better person is the best award, whether it is good or bad, wrong or right. Because we may give this award to the fellow person to do it right the first time. Giving chance for experiences in life will hold back memory of efforts that we have tried to achieve it. With experience comes patience, this is a quality that cannot be posed by everyone but people with strong mindsets have them. Patience teaches us the control of anger, tolerance, excitement, expectation, and overall mixed emotion, setting us back to achieving something big with a positive attitude. This also includes failures, struggles, anxiety, and depression; the people who have gone through it will have a great knowledge of patience.
Set passion or a goal, if we do so, nothing can distract you from what you want. This makes your time productive. You must concentrate on your passion sincerely, moreover, no one is born an expert but trying hard and focusing will lead to you standing in a limelight one day. Develop a growth mindset where many successful people have this attitude, where you have to execute performance better than yesterday. Overcome the fear of failing. Beyond any doubt, you will achieve your goal with great success in it.
You feel like becoming better once you are getting older and older. This is because you have a fair experience in life and understand the fact life does not change overnight. Celebrating small victories, appreciating others, learning from mistakes, prioritizing your goal, and having the confidence to shed your old identity makes us be matured person. It is fine to lose people, trap in failure, and feel alone but it does not stop your life. Getting back stronger than before will vanish all your flaws, failures, and fears. However, it might encounter a period but staying in the same place does not go to change anything.
Becoming mentally best involves developing your character. Accept good suggestions, which will take you to the next level. Find good and loyal people around you for motivation and to have a peaceful life. Do not take people for granted, have a constant connection, take care of others feeling and be supportive. Further, others will notice the changes in your behavior, and you may also become an inspiring person for others for their change.
You will start to upgrade when you have seen the dark phase in your life. As a sample, let me talk about myself , I’m the kind of person who can’t withstand small failures and will get demotivated easily but here I’m involved in this competition because I want to get occupied with something. On thinking of all possibilities of what I can do further to overcome my blurred phase, but didn’t stick with an idea. Everybody in their life has a special person where they know everything about them. Even though I have one, when I don’t know, what I’m good at, he suggested me to enroll in writing, why because he has seen me actively participating in essay competitions my during college days. Here I would say choosing or being people who make you better and brings out the best in you are very important for life. Little by little emerging yourself at what you are good at is also improving you into a good person.
Like being on the weighing scale, we must also give equal importance to physical appearance, to enhance ourselves to look confident. For instance, if we wear shabby clothes for an interview though we have highly prepared and well-talented, 100% we can say we get rejected. Because it is the first impression, we give to people on how we make them feel.
Physically one can maintain their body and looks, by making minor changes in their daily routine. Whereas working out, following the diet, dressing well, and keeping up the smile when we look and talk with people are basic things to be remembered. Small gestures like handshaking, greeting, and speaking politely will make you respected by others. Be the person you would look up to in the future.
Stabilizing both your mental and physical state of you is equally significant for becoming the best version of your life. Change might be difficult but it will be worth it. It all develops when you start working on yourself because no one is going to live your life. One life and make it count. It is never too late, so start improving on minute habits, one day when you look back at your younger self you will thank them for making you proud in the present. Make people around you think you are no longer the same person as before. Unveil the strongest version of you and shine like a sun.
“Don’t chase people, money or success become the best version of yourself and those things will chase you”
