How can I become the best version of myself?
Sometimes you are depressed or stressed out because of work and you say things which make you feel regret immediately. Maybe just because you’re getting pressure from your higher authorities regarding your work or your colleagues keep you at arm’s length. These are a few signs that you may lack in presenting yourself best at work and this problem may be costing you, promotion and opportunities for collaboration.
I have been sitting right there with you, however, as George Eliot is believed to have said, “It is never too late to be who you might have been.” Here are a few tips which help you in becoming the best version of yourself.
1. Visualize your ultimate life.
I am inviting you to do what best you can do. Close your eyes and allow your mind to think peacefully. Listen to your inner voice what you want to do in life? Where you want to go? What is your purpose? What you are doing now? Whatever you are doing presently is the same in your imagination. Write your imagination or your ultimate life in the ink. Own your dream no matter what it takes. Follow your dream world, do things with passion and fire in your eyes. Put your best in everything without caring about it’s after effects.
2. Choose your company wisely
It’s up to you whom you choose to be around and whose opinion and advice you pay attention to. Are you enjoying surrounding yourself in office gossip or the most pessimistic elements of the workplace?
Think about your ideal life’s place. Is this the same place which you imagined in your dream world? Those are the people with whom you want to cultivate your relationship now.
3. Develop your skills deliberately
Visualize what you will be doing professionally as your best self. Are you staying in the same industry currently? Will you be on some different career path? What skills do you want to achieve? How would it feel to do the work which you love? In your ideal life, you will be doing the work which gives you satisfaction and fulfil
that burning desire inside of you.
Write down your ideal passion and identify the skill development you will need for achieving your ideal life.
4. Stay motivated
Determine why you will absolutely enjoy being your best version. Identify your inspirations, strengths to achieve your goal. This helps you in getting closer to your dream world. Write down your strengths, weaknesses, and things which you need to work on. Stay focused and dedicated to your goal. This helps you in becoming the best version of yourself.
5. Start from the beginning
You don’t just happen to be the best version of yourself in one shot. It takes lots of effort, devotion, passions, constant hard work. You can’t become what you want to be without crossing hurdles which came across in your way whenever you try to move ahead from your current position. You have to walk miles to reach your dream.
