Most people are familiar with the Monday New Life algorithm. When pronouncing these magic words, a person often does not imagine that it is still necessary to brew a magic potion. At the same time, it is important to choose the right ingredients so that there are no accidental unnecessary impurities in the "new life".
Instructions
Step 1
Answer the question what the words "change and become better" mean to you.
1) What traits in yourself do you want to change. Do not forget to justify (for yourself, of course) why. The answer “I don’t know why, I just want to” is accepted if this is your desire. In other words, it should reflect your nature, and not be imposed by a virtual image from advertising.
2) "Become better" - draw your image, or better - describe it. Take a piece of paper and write down in any visual and convenient way for you what features you want to get rid of and how you plan to do it. Then write what traits you want to acquire and your strategic plan to achieve.
Step 2
If your plans for change are global, then keep a notebook for the productivity of the process. Record your ideas and changes in it, adjust plans when the need arises, celebrate your achievements.
Step 3
Be honest with yourself. Your current desire to buy a yacht may disappear after you ride a friend's yacht. Feel free to cross this desire out of your notebook! Otherwise, it will draw away energy that you could spend on performing urgent tasks.
Step 4
Remember to check your notebook from time to time. The human brain tends to forget information. In our age of endless information flow, anything happens. If you don’t have a notebook and the habit of looking into it, you may not remember soon about your desire to change.
Step 5
It's good to change. If your relatives demand this from you, and you do not know what to do, "play" with this situation. Try to change something at your discretion or change something specific that is required of you. Try on new looks. Did you like the result? - Leave it to yourself. Didn't you like it? - Throw it away, it's not yours. This is an interesting experience that does not commit you to anything.
Step 6
Never scold yourself for what is done or not done. Plan to change only when you actually do it, not for the sake of saying it, or being like everyone else. All of the above will spend your (!) Vital energy, which you could spend on things you really need.
Step 7
Praise yourself for what you have accomplished. Thank those around you for their help (it can be people, nature, circumstances).
