— Debbie Ford

Things You Need To Do to Create The Best Year Of Your Life
Physical distress, mental stress and deteriorating relationships have taken over and affected the lives of many of us in recent times. Step into 2024 with this checklist of things to make your life better to stay content and happy throughout the year while being consistent with your life goals making it the best year of your life.
Mental Tips
1. Avoid repeating mistakes of the past. Instead, try new ways to solve your persisting problems.
2. Follow a positive mindset. The quality of your life is heavily determined by the quality of your thoughts.
3. Keep your promises; avoid guilt. Do your best to keep the promises you make to others and to yourself.
4. Be mindful. Strive to be present in every activity and conversation you are part of. Don't just be there, try being fully engaged at the moment right now.
5. Take consistent steps to improve yourself no matter how big or small it is. Remember small daily improvements are the key to astounding long-term results to make a new life.
6. Fill your mind with good and meaningful information. Continue to learn as much as you can by reading articles, watching videos, and listening to podcasts.
7. Always remember knowledge is crucially important, but knowledge alone will not get results. Actions do. Take purposeful actions.
8. Be inspired. Listen to music, browse artistic works, and watch documentaries or films that are coherent with your vision for the year.
9. Change is constant and instead of fearing it, embrace it. Fears unfaced become your limits. There is power in showing up for yourself.
10. Set empowering goals for yourself that align with your passions and values, both personally and professionally. Break these goals into actionable steps, creating a roadmap for continuous progress.
11. When you embrace mistakes and use them as teaching moments, you transform that mistakes into an opportunity to grow and become a better person.
Physical Tips
12. Wake up naturally to begin your day in a positive mood. Practise a routine of sleeping on time and waking up at the same hour every day.
13. Detox. It is a good idea to start the year with a clean slate by detoxing. Cut back on unhealthy food and lifestyle choices. Amend your diet to speed up the detox process.
14. Declutter your life digitally. The online world and social media create a lot of distractions around you. Learn here some exceptional tips to unplug from technology without a complete digital detox
15. Exercise daily. It could be dancing, swimming, Yoga, rope skipping, or going for a run. Make sure you’re doing at least 20 to 30 minutes of significant physical activities.
16. Practice meditation. Practising meditation for about 15 to 20 minutes every day helps in reducing anxiety which is the need of the hour in this highly competitive era.
17. Go outside and spend as much time as possible with nature. If you spend most of your time indoors, commit to spending more time outside this year.
18. Get on top of your finances. Optimise the ways you spend your money. Also, seek smart ways to invest wisely.
19. Spend money on experiences. You could go on vacation or take friends out for a treat. Spending money in such ways yields a remarkable feeling of satisfaction.
20. For health goals, start with a few small lifestyle changes instead of applying severe changes at once and incrementally move your way towards your goal.
21. Believe in yourself and accept no excuses for quitting at least one bad habit during the year. Stop thinking of all the reasons you can’t do it and start doing it to make a new life.
Tips for Social Life and Relationships
22. Don’t take care of everyone so seriously that you end up overlooking yourself. Prioritise yourself and perform an act of self-care every single day along with other things to make your life better.
23. Start to show maximum love and care to your family. Spend as much quality time with them as you can.
24. Smile at strangers. In a time when technology is making us forget how to act human and relationships are diminishing, become the politest person you know.
