THE BEST VERSION OF YOU👉

Looking at the mirror who do you see? Are you satisfied with the 'you' that you see? If the answer is no, it's never too late to become that you would live to see. First you have yo discover yourself, to know who you are, your weaknesses and your strengths. The following are important steps you can take to become a better you;

SOLITUDE
Take out your time to think of your life. You need to get away from distractions. When all around is quiet, ask yourself some questions like; who am I? What have I achieved so far in life? Where am I heading? What do I do with my time? These questions will definitely help you reflect on your past and present. Solitude will also help you organize your world.

SINCERITY
After asking yourself the above questions, you need to give sincere answers to them.
[William Shakespeare once said; " To thine own self be true"].
The worst form of deceit is self deceit, so you need to tell yourself the truth. He never who never made a mistake never made a discovery. So recognize your mistakes and learn from them, but don't dwell on them. There is nothing you can do now about your past, but there is a great deal you can do about your future. Accept your past and get ready to face the future.

FIND YOUR DREAM

Every man has a dream; you know what you want from life. Although life may not make your dream come on a platter of gold, one has to strive.
[A wise man once said, "There is no dream too big and no dreamer too small"] so dream big or die small. If you want something tomorrow, plan something today. Pessimism would do you no good. Optimistic people do not only grab opportunities that come their way,they create them. Dreamers are optimistic people the always expect something. If you are not a dreamer, you expect nothing and that is what you will get....Nothing.

DISCIPLINE
We all have excuses foe not achieving the things we ought to achieve, so you need to make a conscious effort to put things right. Discipline is doing the right thing whether you feel like it or not. Procrastination is a very dangerous habit as one can miss wonderful opportunities as a result if it. Opportunities follow struggle, effort and hard work. It doesn't come before nothing. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm. So, never leave until tomorrow see what you can do today.

CREATE A LIFE TIMELINE

Write down what you want to achieve within a particular time frame. This will help you manage your time well. At the beginning if a new season,you need to ask yourself "what have I set to achieve this session/period?" How do I go about it?" Make sure you put your thought into writing, this makes it more realistic. Time is the most valuable possession in life. Time spent carelessly is irreplaceable, so make the best out of your time. In writing your timeline, ensure you keep it real and as simple as possible.

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF

To believe in yourself is to have confidence and a solid sense of self worth.
[Muhammad Ali once said; "To be a great champion you must believe you are the best. If you are not, pretend you are"].
Learn to trust your own instincts, judgments and decisions.
[As Malcolm X would say; " A man who doesn't stand for something would fall for anything"].
You need to take responsibility. Don't live a carefree life, believing that things would sort themselves out. Success requires conscious effort from you. It is a function of choice and not chance. You have to be self-reliant and self-determined, not carried along by the waves of fate.

Following the above steps will surely make you a changed person and when you look back at the mirror, you would be impressed at the person you see..
