Three Steps for Feeling Great Today

Well-being is a foundation that sets you on a path to live a happier, healthier, wealthier life, doing what you love, and feeling peaceful within your everyday responsibilities.  Imagine life without a to-do list that may overwhelm you. Visualize a daily routine that makes you feel good each day. Challenges will come and go. However, the daily rituals you implement will become automatic. Begin your well-being journey today. Below are three steps for you to get started.

Step one:

Begin the process by starting your day out right by stimulating your mind and body. Focus your thoughts on what you do want. Create change by doing something different to achieve the goals you want right now, giving you a sense of strength and motivation for your day.  For example, when you wake up to remember, it’s a new day with different possibilities and opportunities.  What happened yesterday is in the past. Start by thinking about things that you are grateful for. Be mindful not to focus on negative thoughts of frustration or anger, what is not going well, and what you don’t want.  Instead, think positive thoughts that shift you to a better feeling thought. For example, thinking about a friend or loved one who makes you smile, starting a project that excites you, or being in your favorite place where you go on vacation.

Step Two:

Prepare a plan of action. You can spend a few minutes or a few hours. The key is to make it simple and start. You can add or change it in the future. Get in the habit of writing down 3-5 things to accomplish each day that is important to you.  For example, I journal in the morning, do 30 minutes of exercise, post on my Grow Your Wealth and Well-Being Facebook Group, review stock market charts, and work on relationship building on social media. Whatever I don’t complete during that day, I add to the plan the next day until I do the task.

Step Three:

Schedule time each day to do something you love. Write it down. Decide you are going to do at least one item each day towards one of your goals. If you have some extra time and do more, then you will achieve your goal quicker.  Consistency will help you achieve your goals.

The key is to be consistent, disciplined, and take small action steps on your journey, doing what you are passionate about while enjoying your life. Be patient, trusting the result will happen. Avoid telling yourself stories of what you can’t do that could sabotage your success. Change your thoughts to believing you can do it. Train your mind to be positive and take an optimistic outlook as you manage your daily decisions. Focus on getting clear on where you want to go, what goals you want to achieve, and make the daily commitment that will get you there. In time you will accomplish what you never imagined possible.

Begin with creating a few simple daily habits or rituals.  For example, perhaps you decide to write a book, then you need to create time in your day to write. Thinking you need to find 3-4 hours at a time may be overwhelming to you. Instead, choose when you write a minimum of 150 words a day for five days a week. You will be surprised at how much you accomplish when you create the writing habit. In a short time, you will be well on your way to completing the goal you desire. Some days you may feel inspired and write more than 150 words.  You can approach improving your well-being in the same way.  You don’t have to change everything all at once. One change leads to another.

You may be a person who likes to start your day working out early in the morning to jumpstart your day or general health. If you would like to make this happen, schedule a time on your calendar for working out. I worked out in the morning for many years. However, later in my journey, it worked better for me to work out after getting home from work to better manage my stress and shift my thoughts away from the stock market, giving me a sense of inner peace.

What simple habits can you start now to develop new patterns for your well-being success?

Creating discipline will lead you on your journey towards achieving the goals you desire, setting yourself up for success. Get started taking simple action steps one at a time. Explore and experiment until you find what feels good, the right combination for you. Get to a point where your habits become automatic. If I could do this, you can too.

If you are patient, the action steps you take will become more comfortable in time because you will gain confidence as you practice, and you will begin to feel better and stronger.  Once you start to see the change, you will be ready to add a few more.  Your dedication will go a long way when you make changes to impact your life.
