7. Give and Give More
Giving is a large part of life’s worth. Focusing on giving is the best way to overcome doubts, fears and negativity. This doesn’t need to be money either. It could be something as simple as a kind smile or as profound as listening to someone who is going through a difficult time.
It is important to recognize that giving as a core strategy will help you to continue to grow and make a positive contribution.
8. Clarify Your Identity
It is more important to know who you are, and what you can tolerate in your daily life. This one adult life skill will determine your success, your habits, rituals, and standards. You might have to change some aspects of your personality if you want to improve your life.
If you’re in sales, for example, you should make going the extra step a part who you are. This could include working an extra hour, waking up earlier, visiting the gym more often in a given week, or doing one extra rep.
These small changes have a huge impact on your identity. Repeating these actions consistently will lead to a change in your identity and will make you associate yourself with success. You might even discover that you are drawn to people, content and lifestyles of different types.
Word of Warning
You can achieve all the above life skills as an adult by doing what you promise to do. You must keep your commitments. You will grow in confidence and become more confident.
It’s because I want you to commit today, but it is also important that you mean it. The biggest thing you can ever do is to trust yourself and do what you promise.
A trusting relationship with yourself will help you succeed in life. The more times you are able to be proud of yourself and acknowledge that in yourself, the greater your self-confidence will be and the more impact you can have on others.
It is time to accelerate your life. Start now and iterate as you go.
