How to be a better version of ourselves?

Image
                 Don’t be surprised by the title if you’re thinking I’m trying to change you into someone else. Being a better version of oneself doesn’t mean trying to look like others, but instead bringing the better part within us.        Therefore, it’s crucial to decide what the good and bad is within us. I   bet this is the hardest choice people have when they decide how their behaviour should be. You may be wondering how people can be mistaken when they differentiate b/n well and bad. In fact many people do. They know what’s good and bad but still choose the bad choice. This leaves us with the question “why?” All this time we have excluded external distractions. Despite the low attention we give to the term, it may be our key problem and if we understand it well, it might lead us to find the solution.       When I mention external distraction in this article, I ...

3 simple ways to a start frugal lifestyle

        “Why are you so cheap?” This is the type of remark, many people who are careful with their money have to get used to. Most people tend to see the frugal lifestyle as stingy. There is a big difference between being frugal and being stingy. Frugality revolves around the idea where it requires one to use all resources to the last drop before purchasing. This turns to stinginess when a person starts to cut down the basic necessities for the sake of saving money.         Frugal people themselves aren’t all the same. Some are ok with a very tight budget for the necessities while others aren’t that serious and are only careful of extravagant purchases which might bring debt that is too big.         If you want to be frugal, it’s your choice on setting the level your goals on saving since it depends on your financial situation you are in & what you believe is best...

It seems to rule everyone. When it appears, we all start cramming to make ourselves well informed. You might be wondering, what it is that makes us panic to the excess? Well I’ll say it is the fearing of missing out. Why do we fear on missing out? It might be responded differently but I’d argue that one core unites all responses. Let’s see it down from an individual perspective. [I’m me. I know I’ve only this life to live and I’ve to make the most of it. I’ve weaknesses but I hope my strengths will overcome them. I don’t like it when I miss out on something important. It feels I’ve been cheated by fate and I’m the unluckiest person. When I grab on something most people don’t get, I feel proud and important but sadly it won’t last.]         I do believe we all feel this way one way or another. From my experience, it’s important to utilize the opportunities we can get, but this raises the question “what things should we spend our time with?” ...

                In my other articles, I have said that to start something is half the battle. Today I’m going to talk about the other half. What is to come after we start our journey? How do we keep up the pace we started with?         One thing you will have to be ready all the time when you are about to start something is Frustration. What is frustration, and how does it impede our path? Frustration is a feeling that wants to bring us to our knees, to stop whatever we’ve started. It’s completely OK to be frustrated from time to time. We usually become frustrated when we’re not living up to our expectation or when our goals seem unreachable. I’ve some methods to counter with this problem which I do hope will help you out work hard against the odds. 1.    Be prepared for the worst            Many people believe that we have to prepare to embr...
