Life Changing Tips to help you get more out of life.
If you feel it's time to make a new start then take time to look at this top 20 tips to help you change things for the better and get the best out of life.
Life-changing tip 1: Travel the world
If there could be a possibility, then you should make sure you fit some travelling in. Okay, you might think that you do not have the time or the funds to go on a round-the-world trip, but it certainly is a truism that ‘travel broadens the mind’. If you can’t manage that backpacking trip around the globe, then consider going to some far away location where the experience will be totally different — perhaps even life-changing — rather than settling for the usual same destination and not going anywhere unusual.
Life-changing tip 2: Change your job
If your job is getting you down, then change it. The only one preventing you finding something that you’ll enjoy more is only you. If only people could put as much energy into finding a new job as they do into complaining about it, then they could mark a major change to their lives. Your workplace is where you spend a large amount of your time, so it’s important to try and be as happy there as you can be.
Life-changing tip 3: Change your routine
Having a regular routine can be a safe option, but can make your life a little more exciting as well. Try changing something in your routine, such as taking a different route or method of commuting into work. If you’re one of those people who usually say ‘I can’t do that on Tuesday because I normally do …’, then break that cycle and try to do things in a more spontaneous manner. Just because it’s Friday doesn't mean you always have to eat fish!
Life-changing tip 4: Have a goal
It’s a must that you always have a goal in mind — whether it is saving up for that new house and lot or that new car or that trip around the world, or alternatively realizing some career ambition. If you don’t have anything to look forward to, then you can quickly become bogged down and will be continuously just living to work rather than the other way around. Having an objective to work towards keeps you being motivated and helps prevent you from just drifting along and falling into a rut — so make sure you always have a particular goal in mind.
Life-changing tip 5: Do something that scares you
Overcoming a fear by completing a challenge is the best feeling a person could ever feel. If there’s something that you've perhaps always imagined doing but have been too scared to do it, then just go for it! Do it! There are many people out there who have been trying out zip line riding and some are doing skydiving, for example, and described leaping out of a plane as a ‘life-changing experience’ — and then have gone on to complete challenge after challenge because of the buzz they get from it.
Life-changing tip 6: Write your autobiography
Putting down your life story into writing will inevitably make you think about it — including those things that have gone right so far and those that haven’t. Although you’ll not necessarily intend to let other people read it (although it might let others understand you better if you do!), it will help you to reassess your life and think about the direction in which you want it to go. It may also be a good way of exorcising some of your demons and reinforcing your beliefs.
Life-changing tip 7: Get more active
If your lifestyle involves coming home from work and slumping in front of the TV every evening, then it might be time for a change of tack. We’re not necessarily talking about becoming an Olympic athlete, of course — but we are suggesting you to get more active. You could introduce some exercise into your day simply by walking — for example by taking the stairs instead of the elevator. And if you take some more rigorous exercise, then it’s likely you’ll start feeling a lot healthier in a short span of time.
Life-changing tip 8: Get a new image
Your image might be the one thing you feel is holding you back and making you lack confidence. If you had that same old tired look for ages, then this could be the time to change your appearance in some way. Spend some money on yourself and get a new hairstyle, buy a new wardrobe of clothes, and just do things to make you feel as though you are special. It’s amazing how you can feel more comfortable and confident in certain clothes when you make the effort — so make an effort more often!
Life-changing tip 9: Sleep more/less
Some people just don’t get enough sleep, while others have far too much — the end result of which will be a feeling of constant tiredness. Getting the right amount of sleep will make you more alert and able to relish doing things and get more out of experiences during your waking hours. Plus, one added bonus of sleeping less is that it enables you to fit more things into your day. After all, as they say, ‘you have all the time to sleep when you’re dead’.
Life-changing tip 10: Change your diet
‘You are what you eat’ is a much-used phrase, and it may be that your diet is making you feel pretty rotten. Just changing a few things can have positive health benefits as well as give you more energy and make you feel better all the way. Of course, there are a lot of advice's out there (some of it are contradictory!) — But generally, eating everything in moderation is the best way to go. Also, making sure you drink enough water and get your five portions of fruit and vegetable are two of the golden rules to follow.
Life-changing tip 11: Change your outlook
If you think negative thoughts all the time then that’s exactly how you’ll feel! Think positively! Smiling a lot and being positive will transform you into a more optimistic person. It has been said that people are only as happy as they allow themselves to be — and if you can put aside negative thoughts and be more optimistic, then that will transfer itself to how you feel about life in general. There is even an evidence that says, “people who smile a lot actually live longer”!
Life-changing tip 12: Change your friends
There are some people who just want to drag you down or use you as an emotional crutch for their negativity. While we may want to be there for people who need us, there is no need to be constantly brought down to their level. Some people can be just plain bad for you and surround you with so many negative vibes that you just don’t want to listen to them anymore. If that’s the case, then don’t put yourself through it and get some new friends instead!
Life-changing tip 13: Read more
Books are often a great source of inspiration, and new ideas and can often have a major impact on you. There are people who will swear by certain ideas put forward in a book and actually live their life by them. Autobiographies of people who have overcome insurmountable odds or had that certain stroke of luck that we’re all looking for can often act as a great inspiration — and may even lead you to consider making some life-changing decisions.
Life-changing tip 14: Buy a pet
Owning a pet is thought to have health benefits such as helping lower blood pressure and being good for your general mood. Having a pet — in particular a dog — will lead to increased activity levels because they need to be taken for regular exercise. Pets can also help relieve your stress and anxiety by promoting laughter and affectionate behavior.
Life-changing tip 15: Say ‘yes’ more often
Don’t be the sort of person that is always turning an invitation down. If you say ‘no’ that often, then people will eventually stop asking you! So, stop looking for excuses not to go out, and make a promise to yourself never to turn an invitation down (within reason, of course!). You never really know what is going to happen — and it’s quite often the nights out that you initially have low expectations of that end up being the most enjoyable.
Life-changing tip 16: Watch less television
The number of hours of television being watched by many people these days is so great that, after the time you spend asleep and in work, it is probably the one activity that takes up most of your time. Watching less TV will free you up to follow other (hopefully more healthy) pursuits. Making this change will have a positive and radical impact on your life — and also on your general health.
Life-changing tip 17: Give up alcohol
Too many people rely on alcohol as a means of relaxation or escapism, and while there are some health benefits from drinking alcohol in moderation (red wine being a good example), the benefits of not drinking cannot be stressed enough. Try giving up alcohol — even just for a trial period — to see if you feel any better. Realistically, most of us are not going to become teetotalers, but the there are many people who have given up and not regretted it whatsoever.
Life-changing tip 18: Employ the ‘three-minute rule
Write down three things you have been trying to achieve — whether it’s changing bank, sorting out your photo album or a career change — and give yourself a month to get them done. When you decide to tackle one of your chosen tasks, set your alarm clock to buzz you in three minutes, then concentrate on the task in hand. One step at a time will do. You’ll find that once you have broken the fear of starting something, you’ll be fired up to get it done.
Life-changing tip 19: Treat yourself
It’s not always possible to put yourself first, and all too often people actually forget that they deserve to be treated well too. If you keep waiting for others to treat you well, then it might never happen. Make a resolution to treat yourself every now and again by putting yourself first, so that you get what you deserve at regular intervals. It’s one way of guaranteeing that at least one person is going to be good to you in your life — and that person is you!
Life-changing tip 20: It’s your life, so live it
Keep reminding yourself that it’s your life and you are the one responsible for making yourself happy. Other people can add to your happiness, but ultimately it comes down to you to get the most out of life, as nobody else can force you into making positive changes which may improve you a lot. So, don’t keep waiting for things to happen for you, as life may just pass you by. Instead, take each day by the scruff of the neck, and learn to make the most of the time you have. Live your life to the fullest!
