Daily Self Improvement

It Does Not Have to Be So Hard

I will give you the same advice you have read over and over. The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.

I know this saying seems to be used a lot. But it is true. Making any kind of improvement will take time, sometimes a long time. Losing a lot of weight will take time, months, maybe years. Getting rich will take years, maybe decades. Formal education takes years. Raising your children takes the rest of your life.

But the key to thinking about this is that whatever you focus on, whatever it is that you want, you can get. As long as you keep making continual efforts to do so.

If you are trying to lose weight, it is the daily decisions to eat less and exercise more.

If it to eliminate debt, it is the continual large payments and the avoidance of using debt anymore.

If you are tying to make any improvement at all to your life, you have to make the improvement itself something that you can do on an almost daily basis.

For example, if you have a large stomach and it sags and is hard to manage, in addition to improving your eating habits and weight training, you begin to walk daily. Not just once a week, every day.

Another big tip is to actually suck in your stomach. This is an exercise that really works well as long as you keep doing it every day. I describe it this article - Daily Abominal Exercise This exercise is effective because it is the daily use of it that works.

Any improvement you want to make has to be something you do nearly every day. It is so easy to be lazy and complacent. But then you look up years later and all the things you wanted to do and all the improvements you wanted to make have not happened.

With the daily idea, this will not be you. You will just go ahead and make daily progress on whatever it is that is most important to you.
