These habits that changed my life

I don’t know if you’re like me, but I want to wake up every day a better person than I was yesterday. I want to grow mentally and step outside my comfort zone. My goal is to create a life I love, a life that fulfills me and brings me happiness. When I became interested in personal development, I developed a number of habits—good habits that have had a positive impact on my life and my way of being.

They helped me grow as a person and pushed me to build a life I’m proud of. I improve every day and show myself every day that I can make my life something memorable. Today, I’ve decided to share with you five habits that have had the biggest impact on me. Perhaps they’ll inspire you and motivate you to do the same.

These habits that changed my life

Develop a new mindset.

If you’re a regular listener of my podcast, you know that simply changing your mindset makes all the difference. Before understanding the power of mindset, I used to struggle with my self-confidence and what I believed I could and couldn’t do. I didn’t think I had the skills, knowledge, or experience to succeed in life. I thought I had nothing special and couldn’t do anything exceptional. This way of thinking significantly limited my ability to move forward.

Throughout my learning and personal development, I’ve cultivated a mindset that has changed my entire life. I’ve developed a growth mindset. A growth mindset describes the thought process of someone who believes their abilities can evolve, adapt, and improve through continuous work, practice, and learning. This contrasts sharply with a fixed mindset, in which a person generally believes they are who they are and cannot change.

Instead of feeling like I’d reached my full potential, I started challenging myself every day. I wanted to expand my knowledge, learn, and absorb as much information as possible. My goal was to improve myself daily. I stopped being someone who gave up as soon as things got difficult. I owned up to my mistakes, decided to learn from them, and thought about the changes I could make to do better next time. It took time to understand what was holding me back. But once I finally developed a growth mindset, my life changed.

Create a morning and evening routines

When I started looking into the daily lives of successful people, I quickly realized they all had routines, whether for the morning or the evening. So I decided to implement this in my own life to see if it would have any effect. I created morning and evening routines to help me be more organized and not neglect myself. Developing routines in your life allows you to lead a more intentional life and to be able to cope with the unexpected. They help maintain order in your life while improving your health. If you don’t know what kind of routine to implement, you can check out my article on some routine ideas. To give you an idea, here’s my morning routine:

My routines are very basic, but they work for me; they allow me to unwind, relax, and take time for myself. All you need to create balance and help you maintain a positive environment is a routine.

Accepting change

As human beings, we are attached to our habits. We have a comfort zone, our little cocoon, where change and novelty have no place. The problem is that not accepting change limits your growth. We are constantly changing and evolving into improved versions of ourselves. Avoiding change means avoiding personal development.

By shifting to a growth mindset, I changed my perspective. This allowed me to make small changes that had a huge impact on my life. These changes felt good and allowed me to move forward. It’s important to accept that this is inevitable and that it’s not synonymous with negativity. If you want to be a more fulfilled and happier person, you will inevitably have to go through this stage.

Keeping a journal

I often talk about journaling on this blog, but it’s something that has truly benefited me greatly. I tend to write down my thoughts and feelings in it. I’m not the type to talk to others about my life, my worries, my stress… My journal allows me to express all my emotions and, therefore, detach myself from them. It helps me understand certain things, put things into perspective, and reflect on myself. It has a very calming effect. I also use it to manifest my desires through scripting.
