-Take full responsibility for your actions, you have the power to change the things that you don´t like in your life

-Instead of complaining about something, ask yourself how you can improve it. Not happy with your weight? Start walking half an hour a day or exercising and eating healthier. No time to follow your dreams? Get up an hour earlier and do a morning ritual. 

-What are the great things you have achieved so far in your life? Did you finish high school, college? What challenges did you overcome? What setbacks did you bounce back from? What successes have you achieved? Look back and celebrate them

-Self belief can be learned. Do your affirmations. 

-Make a list of what bothers you the most about others and reflect on it a bit. What does it say about you?

-When you work on something, and suddenly you start doubting or feel your energy decreasing. When you are stuck, bored or tired of the task at hand, that´s when your inner critic begins speaking to you. Listen, but don´t take it seriously. Respond the negative self-talk with “so what?” “who cares?” “big deal” “you bore me” “just go away and let me do my work”. 

-The following questions can help you get to know yourself better. Answer them honestly: 

• what fuels you in life?
• what do you desire?
• are you working on making your greatest wishes a reality?
• what do you really, really like doing?
• what do you not like doing?
• do you do things in your life that you don´t like? why?
• what are your strengths and how can they help you overcome difficulties?
• what are your weaknesses?

-Learn to manage your emotions which means perceive, use, understand, and manage them. It´s done as follows:

• perceive and express emotions and permit yourself to feel them
• facilitation of feelings. Ask yourself how you can feel a different emotion

• emotional adjustment. You know why the emotion was felt

-You are enough

-Instead of beating yourself up, do the following things:

• accept yourself as you are
• forgive yourself and love yourself
• take excellent care of yourself

-Keep the conversation with yourself positive such as “I want to achieve success”, “I want to be slim”, “god, I am good”, because your subconscious doesn´t understand the little word NO

-Use positive affirmations or subliminal messages and follow up with behavior, for example, smiling in front of a mirror for 30 seconds everyday, or behaving like a person with a healthy self-perception

-The next time when you feel tempted to agree with somebody just to please them, don´t do it. Nothing good comes from being dishonest with yourself and betraying your values and ideas

-Work on your self-esteem and learn that the only approval you need is your own approval. The only person to compare to is the person you were yesterday and always keep striving for improvement

Surround yourself with awards you won, with photos of your loved ones and photos of places you love. Listen to your favorite music as often as you can, and watch motivational videos that inspire you.

-Create your own luck

• lucky people create, notice and act upon the chance opportunities in their life. They build strong networks and have a relaxed attitude towards life, while being open to new experiences
• lucky people make successful decisions by using their intuition and gut feelings. They listen to their intuition and take steps to boost it
• their expectations about the future help them fulfill their dreams and ambitions. They expect their good luck to continue and attempt to achieve their goals even if their chances of success seem slim. They persevere in the face of failure and expect their interactions with other to be lucky and successful
• lucky people are able to transform their bad luck into good fortune always by seeing the positive side of their bad luck. They are convinced that any ill-fortune in their life will, in the long run, work out for the best.

The more vivid your visualization is, the better the impact it will have
