Using The Brain to Improve Your Personal Life

When you use your mind, you set out to gain qualities that point you in the right direction. 

 

Commitments

 

We all have commitments. Commitments are a part of life. When you have commitments, you enter into promises that you'll get something done. Start making commitments to you. I commit to change habits that obstruct me from accomplishing my goals, or bettering my personal life. 

 

Skills

 

Evaluate your skills to see how you are able to use them to better your life. While you're evaluating your skills, search for new skills. Reach deep down, accept the discomforts, fears, or things you don't like, look past them and find new skills. 

 

Priorities

 

Do you have your priorities straight? Do you have all your plans in perspective? Reassess your plans to make certain that you're on the right path to improve your personal life. If you notice areas you can improve, do not be afraid to take action. Taking action is the last steps you'll take in anything you do that helps to improve your life. 

 

Failure

 

How do you view failure? Failure is common and happens to all us every day. Failure helps us to learn how to develop and grow into a better person. If you sit around stressing failure, then you're heading nowhere quick. Failure is a part of life. Learn from your failures, accept your blame and move to make things better for you. 

 

Saying “No”

 

Individuals hear the word no and fear it. No isn't a rejection. When you say no I'm not going to the bar, you're saying I have better things to do than waste my time in a building filled with drunks. Sometimes you have to tell somebody you love no. For example, you may have to tell your better half no when he or she asks you to watch TV when you know you have to hit the books. Do not let your mate hold you back. It's ok to say no. 

 

Rules

 

We all follow rules. Rules are a part of life, which sometimes the rules are hard to digest. You have to learn to open up your passageway and digest them anyway unless you are willing to stand up and protest in a positive way. People complaining about rules they don’t like and not taking action is wasting everyone’s time. You have the power, yet it takes you to use that power. 

 

Trial Rides

 

Life is filled with trail rides. Day-after-day we walk out our door we're on a trial ride. Every day we have good trials and bad trials. How do you handle trials? If you're willing to take risks in life, likely you handle trials well. On the other hand, if you fear changes, then you'll need to find a way to deal with the trials in life. Regrettably, too many individuals deal with these trials by drinking excessively or drugging. Do not be one of these individuals. 

 

You have many options in life. Good options and bad options will come your very daily. Sometimes you'll choose bad options, yet when you make mistakes, do not dwell rather pull up your resources to see how you could have done things different, and do it different the next time.
