To Live A Successful & Happy Life – Start Doing These Things
Before jumping in, take a moment to yourself.
See your life as it is. See yourself, as you are—all your skills, faults, values, and beliefs.
Do you have the type of life you’d like?
I would guess not, simply because you clicked on this article. Or maybe you do have an extraordinary life but still want to get better.
But, as your life stands in this moment, soak it in.
You should understand that from this point forward, you have the ability to add what’s missing. It’s going to take work, but you can do it.
Live a successful & happy life by doing these things from today:
1. Start spending time with intelligent and mature people
Your closest friends and associates should not be vetted lightly. These people have a huge influence on who you were yesterday, who you are today, and who you will be tomorrow. Spend time with intelligent & mature people and become more amazing through osmosis.
2. Start confronting Your Problems
Don’t expect this to be easy. Facing our problems head on is tough and a challenge fit for any man, woman, or child. This is your life, though, and to make it better, confront your problems, learn from them, and adapt for the future.
3. Start being a little selfish
It’s easy to lose focus on what’s important in life.
We’re pulled in a million different directions, all of which are telling you to give more and more of your time.
We’re often criticized for being selfish, but I’m here to tell you that your 20’s are a damn good place to focus on Number 1 for a little while.
Stop rushing into adulthood and start being a little more selfish with your time.
Imagine how much good you’ll be able to do when you’re 30 by putting in the work when you’re 20.
4. Start letting go of the past
The past is the past, and you can’t change it no matter how badly you may want to. Cut your losses and move forward.
5. Start finding internal happiness
Your happiness is entirely up to you. Nobody else can make you truly happy—the kind of happy that radiates and attracts other people. Don’t be confused; happiness is not the destination. Happiness is the mindset. Happiness is the choice. Happiness is the path.
6. Start believing that you are enough
“You already have everything that you need to fulfill your highest purpose, overcome any challenge that is facing you, and live a life full of love and joy … You don’t need a higher salary, bigger boobs, a girlfriend, another degree, a new car, more Twitter followers, or that purse you saw through the window. In this moment, you are totally complete. You don’t need anything else. You are enough.”
7. Start accepting accountability for your actions
Accountability separates the professionals from the amateurs and the adults from the kids. If you can’t be accountable for your failures, how can you be accountable for your success? Take responsibility for you life.
8. Start speaking your mind
Speaking your mind does not make you an asshole. It means you’re a person who values his or herself. Speaking your mind does not mean you have to be rude to be heard. Just don’t allow yourself to be walked all over. Have some self-respect.
