12 self-improvement articles that will make your day

You may be a student, a professional with a career, or self-employed… Whatever you choose to be in life, your self-improvement is likely to be a top priority for you.  In this blog post, I’ll direct you to some of my other articles that are relevant to personal development. Do sit comfortably, grab some coffee or tea and make the most of your ‘me time’.

As a blogger sharing tips to make your daily life easier, I’ve written self-help tips that I love and practice daily.  I’ll guide you to 12 articles with a variety of hacks for self-improvement.

Set the right goals 

Set goals that are in line with your life purpose.  All your life goals (such as family, wellness, career, personal development and so on) need to be cohesive and support each other for long-term benefits.  If goals from different categories of your life are conflicting, then you’re likely to be demotivated and could stop working on them.

Goal-setting is an important process.  Set SMART goals (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound).  If you prefer another method or framework, then go for it. You also need to review the relevance of your goals from time to time and make any changes accordingly.  One vital aspect is to have an action plan for success. Without action, your objectives are just dreams.

Stay organized 

Having a morning routine is a common habit among successful people.  Any routine is part of the process. Working hard (and smart) while persevering, are some of the other things that you have to do to reach your set goals.  

Have a well-organized to-do and not-to-do list, keep your desk ready for productive work, place stationery where it’s handy, and so on.  The point is that having the right attitude will help you remain focused on important matters.

Productivity hacks

While working smart, learning from your experience is advantageous.  Learn from past mistakes, avoid repeating them in the future, and get better results.  At the same time, learn from the blunders of others, so that you never go through the same things yourself!  Benefit from proven best practices.

Failure can foster growth, enabling you to take calculated risks and improve personally.  Being productive is part of self-management, so take the right daily habits. You always aim at obtaining the best results.   

Choose to be a lover of ongoing learning… it’s fun and produces contentment to know that you always get better than what you were yesterday.  It’s an ongoing process, as what works perfectly today could become obsolete sometime in the future.
