12 habits to start the journey of designing and creating your dream life

habits to design your life

At the beginning of every trip, there are tools, roadmap, instruction to follow to get to the destination you desire here I am offering you some of that in form of habits that if you do them it will help immensely in this journey of designing your dream life.

 

1- make learning part of your life you can learn about anything. you can start by learning about what you are interested in or about what you do as career eg if you’re photographer learn about it more. I recommend learning about personal development.

2-surround yourself with great and positive people if you thought right now that’s good but I don’t have anyone around me like that they all negative ” don’t hurt your head too much because I have the solution right here.

 

3-start small including goals, habits, steps you try to take because that’s will help you commit to doing it which in turn will help your self-esteem, confidence, action taking habit.

 

4-choose an area of your life you feel right now you can work on and set a goal in it. Because at the start you’ll feel like you don’t know what to do and confused and once you made a decision to have the life you want your mind is going to try to stop you because this is something new and uncomfortable but if you choose area that you can control right now, for example, your health I know this huge topic but your goal going to be small like I said before, for example, drink 8 glasses of water every day for a month without going all way to stop eating junk food and such you’ll come to it later in your journey to design your life but now you only start the change in a manageable way.

 

5-work daily on 3 important tasks this going to help you focus and prioritize because the last thing you want is to overwhelm yourself and end up with nothing done

 

6–be consistent and stick to it(habit, task, goal) even if you don’t feel like it is a key if you want to get results.do the work even if you don’t feel like it because truthfully even if you really wanted you will not feel like doing it every day because of all the distractions and bad habits you’ve built.

 

7-never give up because if you do no one will do it for you. You’re the only one who’s going to know what you want and care enough to have it, please don’t give up no matter how hard it gets because yes it’s going to get hard but better in the same time.

 

8-start build routines that going to help you create the life you want and be successful. I didn’t know what to do to build good routine even with all the guides so I just followed a routine someone did that felt right for me and change it with time after that to suit me the one I followed is by Robin Sharma.

 

9-become self-aware I know you’re wondering how? Here are few ways to do it

Meditation, journaling, answer self-discovery questionnaire maybe you wouldn’t expect it to be here but that really helped me. I started to notice my thoughts more after I done it. also can do any exercises that you feel resistance to do it the resistance can be like this “it’s hard you don’t know what you want or you feel this going to take so much time if you find yourself feeling anything of the sort then that’s will help you get more aware.

 

10-reading is a very important habit to develop for your growth and every aspect of your life because it’ll open a lot of things for you l know you can learn in so many different ways but reading has its own taste it’s relaxing, entertaining, fun to highlight important points and reread them.

 

11-believe in yourself. an effective way to reprogram your mind is to use affirmations for examples “ I believe in myself” keep repeating it daily.

 

12-improve your productivity habits because it is going to help tremendously in achieving a lot and control your time and achieve more.

 

Finally remember habits will not form unless you stick to them, pick one that you can do right now and start doing it consistently.it recommended to do it for 66 days to make it stick and be a habit that you do automatically so keep track of it and consider not as chores but a challenge.o
