Have you ever wondered if your daily habits are holding you back or helping you to grow? As Germany Kent said, ““It’s a funny thing about life, once you begin to take note of the things you are grateful for, you begin to lose sight of the things that you lack.” Your habits define your state of mind. They have the power to make you feel good or feel depressed. They can alter your mindset for better or worse. Pause for a moment and reflect If they’re not helping you to grow as a person or not?
Secret to developing a healthy mindset is to have habits that align with your vision and values. Here are 5 ways to develop a healthy mindset:
1. Journal your thoughts
Develop the habit of journaling your thoughts either early in the morning or before you hit the bed. This process will be helpful as it clears your mind and helps you feel good about the positives during the day. You could note down what was the positive for the day, what event made you anxious, and what you need to do for the next day.
2. Review your Vision Board
If you prefer planning and having clear goals, it makes sense to develop a vision board that captures your vision, goals in one place. By reviewing your goals and vision daily, you can remember what you’re working towards and sustain your personal transformation journey.
3. Fix a schedule or have a daily routine
Save yourself some time and energy by planning out your day the night before. Write down to-do lists that are achievable. Follow a daily routine so that you have time for all things important.
4. Centre your mind
Every now and then throughout the day, practice centring exercise to check-in with yourself. Ask what your mindset is like? When you bring awareness to what’s going on in your head, you can come back to the current moment and re-focus.
5. Limit Social Media Time
Set some boundaries around the ways you use social media. This will ensure you are not wasting time and energy on things that don’t matter. Make it a habit to be aware on the quality of content you consume and look at consuming positive content only.
