Many of us have probably asked ourselves what it takes to live our lives to the fullest, each and every day. The question of whether it’s possible to change the quality of our lives is indeed in the power of our hands.
What we can control is what we must take into great consideration.
A time for self-awareness and implementation starts today, right now. In this exact moment. To live our best lives is to treat each day with value as every day brings a blessing and an opportunity to fully experience and enjoy our happiness.
- Being present
Being present can be a lot more difficult than it sounds, when most of our lives are spent inside of our heads, curated by our thoughts based on what happens to us and how we approach such occurrences.
One way to stay present throughout the day is by beginning your day in the way that you choose, with a clear mind, a relaxing non-stressful and calming way in which is most comfortable for you.
To begin each day on your own terms, sets the tone for how you will approach the rest of your day. To fully be grateful to enjoy au h moments even when you have to try harder in different situations helps to build an attitude of gratitude.
- Priorities
With an attitude of gratitude in the simple fact of existing, the next step is to write down what you’re grateful for and what truly matters the most to you. This can help us prioritize what we do in a day, who we spend our time with and how we approach each experience.
A written list of what we’re most grateful for can help us to narrow down and determine what we live for. Gratitude brings clarity which leads to the daily motivation we all need to persevere and be a reminder when tough times arise.
On the list of priorities what matters most is making yourself a top priority as taking care of yourself in all aspects is the foundation of maintaining one’s joy.
- Time management
As you build new habits and you make it a second nature to treat yourself with care, living each day to the fullest requires time. The majority of us don’t have the luxury of doing exactly what we want with what time that we do have.
What can benefit us is time management as this habit is one of the keys to being fully present to enjoy each moment of our lives. Your list of priorities will help you to complete at least one important task everyday, and the greatest part of that is that you get to decide what is important to you.
Doing what you can right now is enough. Establishing time management skills tells us what we have to do now to get to where we want to be.
The goal is to be present and to control what we can right now as your worries about the future will decrease. The utmost importance is to build a life around what makes you happy and the greatest factor is that you get to decide.
