1. Stay all
around fit. When searching for
your ideal lifestyle, you need to be fit inside and out. You need to have physical strength to
keep up with the demands of life.
You need to be internally fit to reduce your chances of sickness and
disease. You need to be
spiritually fit to stay centered and focused on the present moment. You need to be mentally fit to engineer
your life the way you want to live.
You need to be emotionally fit to communicate well and handle the stress
of day-to-day living. You need to
fuel your body nutrient dense foods (most of the time) to maintain a high
performing physical self. By
combining all of these components, you will improve your productivity, gain
laser focus on your ambitions, develop discipline and tenacity and ultimately
create a clear vision of your ideal lifestyle. Once you recognize this vision, these above components will
energize you to attack life everyday.
2. Learn how
to build supportive habits.
Ultimately, your habits dictate the life you want to live or the life
you wish not to live. Everything
we do in life is habit. Brush your
teeth. Drink the coffee. Eat breakfast. Smoke the cigarette. Drive to work on the same roads. Drink alcohol after work. Whatever it is, it’s your habits that
manufacture your lifestyle. For
example, if you want to get in great shape, you need healthy and supportive
habits. Start small and make
drinking water a habit. Once that
becomes automatic, then add in 2 more servings of vegetables. Once automatic, then add more
protein. The snowball effect will ensue. Keep going through this process of
small habit change and do this for months, even years. Your lifestyle will eventually evolve. Studies suggest that it takes at least
66 days to form new habits in your life.
Be patient, be consistent, and stay on course. If you slip up, stay optimistic and move on to the next
day. In the end, stay accountable
and build habits that will set you up to live your ideal lifestyle.
3. Be
optimistic. I am a firm believe
that positivity sets you up to live your ideal life. I am not sure if there is research on this subject, but I
can bet that your odds increase of you achieving your goals and ambitions when
you live a positive life. Optimistic
people flock to optimistic people.
And when you are constantly surrounding yourself with positive,
motivating and inspiring people, you will tremendously raise your chances of
living a great life.
4. It’s all
about personal growth. This is the
foundation. Personal growth is
your total self. When you are
relentlessly working on improving who you are as a person, you are bound to
live the life of your dreams. This
is not a cookie cutter and fallacy approach. You are tenacious and proactive. You are driven and hustle everyday. You know that ACTION is required. You understand that it’s a long-term
philosophy. You are life long
committed. Read the good books, go
to the workshops, enhance your communication, listen well, take notes, take
time for stillness, and most importantly, be audacious! Audacity is needed when you are going
for your ideal life. It will get
hard and you will be scared but stay brave and fearless because if you keep
going, your ideal life is bound to happen.
