self growth starts with self confidence

Lets start discussing it one by one and see how it will help a person not only combat a situation but allow him to approach it with growth mindset

Self talk

self talk is self time

I have read somewhere

you are what you think of yourself.

It’s something really true because thoughts become actions, action transforms into habits and habits finally make your life, so be careful in everything you think about. Self talk is also know as self love it’s the time where you yourself evaluate all those areas where you are good or bad at, you ponder over mistakes you committed, smile on your achievements and lament on your regrets. In short it is a mirror that tells you what going on in your conscious and subconscious mind that help you to have a trait called self image.

2. Get out of your comfort zone

think outside the comfort zone

From childhood to adult we all have been in our comfort zone because our parents use to pamper us this much that it feels like this is what we are supposed to live with. It is defined as the surroundings where there is nothing challenging for us or we are going with the flow. But wait if there is nothing to challenge you or make that spike of adrenaline how you are going to grow?

To answer this HOW its necessary to think out of the box letting comfort zone take care of itself and venturing for some thrillers to make life a bit exciting.

magic outside it

Create new habits

new habits new you

I have once read

Habits can make you or they can break you.

Yeh its true! What are habits they are the traits we follow on daily basis from hours to years they enable us to either be the one we desire to be or opposite of it. Successful people have one thing in common they have developed extra ordinary habits. What I meant by this? Let me explain we want to be proactive but we don’t want to wake up at 4:30 am to take charge of our life. We want to be healthy but we can’t give up on our favourite MAC DONALDS happy meal or cheese hamburger thrice a week. Getting tasks done or to achieve goals require healthy habits to develop because slackers never succeed.

Ask people for help

seek help to change your lens

Reaching out to others for help is often considered bad but this is one of the great traits of successful leaders. Its means if you got stuck somewhere you can approach others and let them know what it is. It will help you exchange your spectacle with them, allowing you to preview or review the situation from their perspective and coming to the loop hole you were unable to identify. Its necessary to have some people at hand to whom you can reach out when ever needed so that without getting situation worse or waiting for right time you can create your own solution with a single calling for help.

Fake it till you make it

fake it to make it

It’s a trait which trainer and coach inculcate into the mind of people to let them feel the energy connected with the person they want to be even if they are not. It’s an important trait to consider when it comes to growth and development. What they asked to do is feel or act the way they want to be or the person whom they admire the most until or unless they have developed that trait in actual and it became the part of their life or routine.
