The 4 life areas you must improve daily are your body, mind, spirit, and relationships. These life areas are living areas, they either grow or die, and they do not stay the same. You must constantly improve them to keep them strong to develop a successful lifestyle.
Body (Physical Health): It takes a lot of physical energy and strength to achieve your goals and dreams and live a successful lifestyle. Make sure you are ready with the physical energy and strength to become successful. For example, unexpected opportunities will manifest that require physical energy and strength. It could be too late if you wait until an opportunity manifest to build your physical energy and strength. When an opportunity manifests, it is time to grab and focus on achieving it, not start building up your physical energy and strength.
One of the main reasons why many people missed opportunities is because they are not ready for the opportunities. For example, some people would not grab onto an opportunity because they feel like they do not have enough energy to become successful. As a result, they often missed many opportunities. However, great opportunities will develop in unexpected ways and times, and it is important for you to be ready for them. Otherwise, opportunities will pass you by and never return. If you tend to miss opportunities, ask yourself, were you ready for those opportunities?
It is the same with overcoming your challenges. You will face unexpected challenges that require physical energy and strength. You want to be ready to overcome those challenges. Otherwise, it will be difficult for you to move forward in life successfully when your challenges are not resolved.
Improving your physical health also increases your longevity. You will have more time to do the things you are passionate about. For example, successful people who are making a positive social impact in the world tend to have a healthy lifestyle because they want to live as long as possible so they can engage with their passion as much as possible.
Ways to improve your physical health (body):
· Eat one more serving of vegetables or fruits daily
· Drink one more cup of water daily
· Increase your exercise by 5-10 minutes daily
· Get 30 more minutes of sleep daily
· Reduce one meal of fast-food weekly or monthly
· Take better care of your hygiene
Mind (Mental Health): It also takes a lot of courage and self-confidence to achieve your goals and dreams, and live your ideal lifestyle. The bigger your goals and dreams the more courage and self-confidence you would need. You also want to be ready with high self-esteem to achieve unexpected opportunities.
On any given day, you could be presented with an unexpected opportunity, and you want to have high self-esteem to believe in yourself that you can become successful. If not, you are unlikely to grab onto the opportunity with low self-esteem. For example, many people also tend to miss many opportunities because they do not believe in themselves. Today in the 21st Century, any goal is achievable. It just depends on your self-esteem level. The higher your self-esteem, the more you will believe in yourself that you can achieve anything. Therefore, high self-esteem allows you not to hesitate to grab on to any opportunities.
Mental health can also help you overcome your challenges successfully. The higher your self-confidence and self-esteem the faster you can overcome your challenges. If not, your challenges will occupy your time and energy, making it difficult for you to stay focused on achieving your goals and dreams. The faster you overcome your challenges, the more time you will have to achieve your goals and dreams.
Ways to improve your mental health (mind):
· Read 3 pages of a new self-esteem book daily
· Attend a positive/support group weekly/monthly
· Watch a new 10–20-minute video on improving your self-confidence
· Reduce your negative news watching
· Attend a new workshop/training/seminar on mental health
· Read and reinforce 3 positive messages before bedtime and or after you wake up
Spirit (Spiritual Health): Improving your spiritual health will help you make better decisions to experience more joy, happiness, purpose, meaning, and fulfillment in life. Spirituality is about understanding more about life and what one needs to do to live a successful lifestyle and experience more positive emotions.
The first step to improving your spiritual health is education, as the knowledge does not automatically come to you. It is important to self-educate yourself more about life because it is rarely taught to you in school or by your parents. It can be difficult for you to know what kinds of decisions you should make that are aligned with joy, happiness, purpose, meaning, and fulfillment when you do not understand them well.
The second step is to apply your knowledge. You must do something daily to nourish your spirit if you want to experience joy, purpose, meaning, and fulfillment throughout your life. For example, if you want to experience those positive emotions today, you must do something today to manifest those emotions. If you want to experience those positive emotions tomorrow, and so forth, you must do something to promote those emotions on those days. To keep those positive emotions alive and strong, you must nourish them daily like you would water the tree daily to keep it strong because they are living things.
Ways to improve your spiritual health (spirit):
· Spend 20-30 minutes daily/weekly to read and learn more about spirituality
· Do one act of kindness around your community daily/weekly
· Forgive one new person
· List down the things you are grateful for
· Spend at least 30-60 minutes with nature on a weekly basis
Relationships: As humans, we are social creatures, which means building successful relationships is important to life success. There are many forms of relationships such as with your family, friends, classmates, co-workers, neighbors, and yourself. Having successful relationships can also improve your physical, mental, and spiritual health. For example, the positive people in your relationships can give you the motivation to improve your body, mind, and spirit.
Having successful relationships can also increase your sense of belonging in the world, which is one aspect of spirituality. Remember that a successful relationship is also a living thing; it either grows or dies and does not stay the same. Therefore, you must nourish your relationships daily. Somedays you can nourish your relationships in small ways, while other days, they could be big nourishments.
Ways to improve your relationships:
· Read a new book on communication and relationship building
· Do something nice for yourself daily/weekly to build a better relationship with yourself
· Have an honest conversation with others to improve your relationship
· Share something new about yourself to others
· Build a new relationship with a new neighbor
· Give a compliment to someone you care about and love
