Introduction
If you wish to improve your life or business, in other words succeed at what you are doing, then I respectfully suggest that improving yourself can come hand in hand with that success.
So just how do you improve yourself? Ensuring at the same time that success also comes your way?
Do you feel that your self esteem is at a low ebb?
If so here are seven ideas that might just make you feel a lot better about your self.
If we are honest how many times have we heard that a celebrity marriage has failed, far too many to count if we are honest. Why is it that we often see people who are in the headlines as flawless? They are not, they are human beings like we are. We just need to face reality and stop sticking our heads in the clouds.
It is possible to lose your self-esteem in a number of ways, no matter how trivial it gets. We must try not to lose our sense of self-believe, whatever happens.
These seven ideas that you can think on, and also improve on, that you should help become a cut above the rest.
1. What is your purpose?
Are you just ambling along life’s journey with no thought as to the direstion that you are taking? Hoping that fate will give you health wealth and prosperity! Learn to identify just wahat you want out of life, plan for the future, this will enable you to lead a happier life.
This idea may seem to be a bad idea at first, especially if you are a dead end in your life, but there is always something that will enable you to turn things round which will make a big difference to you.
2. What are your values?
What things in your life do you value the most? Take a sheet of paper and write down the five things that you value most. They could include family, freedom, security, money, friends amongst many others. When you set your goals for 2024 check them against your values. If a goal does not align with any of your top five values, it is possible that you may just want either think again or amend it.
The number of your values rather than discourage you, should in fact motivate you to reach goals and dreams that you never thought possible.
3. What are your needs?
Unfulfilled needs can keep you from living your best life. Make sure you’re taking care of yourself and your needs. Do you need to be appreciated, to be correct, to be in charge, to be adored? So many people go through life without achieving their aspirations and a lot of them end up feeling overwhelmed or even down about it. Write down your top four needs and make sure they get met before it’s too late!
4, Know who you are
Be true to yourself and don’t let doubt or lack of motivation stand in your way of becoming the person you want to be. Show your true colors and celebrate the people who have inspired and encouraged you to reach your goals. Don’t let anything hold you back – you have the power to be the best version of yourself.
5, Living from the inside out
Take some time to tap into your inner wisdom. Get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and find a peaceful spot in nature. Take a few deep breaths to clear your head and relax. If you’re having trouble finding a quiet place in your own home, try turning down the lights and playing some calming music. Classical tunes can be especially helpful for calming the mind and aiding in reflection.
6. Respect your strengths
What’s your superpower? Everyone has something special about them that makes them unique. Take some time to think about what sets you apart from the rest. Are you a master of creativity, a whiz with words, or a pro when it comes to problem-solving? Don’t be afraid to show off your skills – it’s a great way to boost your self-esteem and let the world know what you can do.
7. Help others
Living authentically can bring about a sense of interconnectedness. Staying true to yourself, living out your purpose, and using your gifts to make a difference in the world can be incredibly rewarding – even more so if it’s a stranger who appreciates your efforts. There’s nothing quite like the feeling of giving back and being appreciated for it.
Conclusion
Self-improvement is totally worth it. It doesn’t have to be confined to a desk job or the four walls of your bedroom. It’s all about how far we’re willing to go to make ourselves better.
This weeks’ health tips
- Avoid extreme diets. The body needs fats, carbs and protein for optimal health. To short yourself out in any one area can be risky.
- Be aware that your brain needs fats to function. Use good fat low in poly-unsaturates, such as olive oil.
- Wash all fresh produce thoroughly. Be aware that nowadays a quick rinse under the tap may not be enough.

Hello, since I haven’t found the page you have submitted, I decided to scroll across your website and I will comment your page called ” Be a much healthier you”. Yes, it’s true that you must implement proper habits to be healthier. This includes exercise, good nutritional habits, and stress management. For me, I decided to implement them starting yesterday because I needed a huge overhaul of my life. So wish me luck!
Right on! Well said. It all starts within ourselves! Improving yourself can come hand in hand with that success. Being positive is another way to improve yourself. I love what you are saying: Living from inside out, not outside in! So true! Very great article. This will help a lot of people! Thanks for sharing!
I definitely agree that it’s very important for us to be very well aware of who we are as individuals, to understand and value our strengths, and consciously work on our weaknesses.
As an engineering graduate, I know I’m very good at analytical thinking and numerical reasoning, but as a perfectionist, I tend to believe that I may perhaps be a bit lacking in communication.
Therefore, I have been working on improving my communication and conversational skills for a very long time and I’m seeing fruitful results.
Thanks for this great article Stuart.
