 Imagine waking up a year from now and realizing that you are living the life you've always dreamed of. Every day is filled with joy and purpose. Does this sound too good to be true? Well, it's not when you take the necessary steps. Firstly, let's acknowledge that change isn't easy, and it certainly doesn't happen overnight, but it is possible, Psych2Goers. Are you ready to start right now? Here are five steps you can take to completely transform your life in 365 days. Reflection. Take a moment to identify what's holding you back and ask yourself, which areas of my life am I unhappy with? Is it your relationship, your job, your health? According to psychology professor Stephen C.A.'s, when you're faced with the difficulty of change your motivation may dwindle and your intentions can be forgotten. So to combat this, write down what you want to change or work on. That way you can always look back when you feel yourself straying and be reminded of what motivated you in the first place. Pause this video and grab a piece of paper or your phone. You can even write it down in the comments if you feel comfortable. Go ahead, we'll wait. Oh good, you're back. Once you have identified the root cause, it's easier to take action. Goal Breakdown. By breaking our ambitions down into smaller, more manageable tasks, you can turn even the most daunting goals into a series of achievable steps. Next to your cause for change, write a goal for each area that you wish to achieve. Make sure these goals are specific, realistic, and something that excites you to take action. This will help you avoid feeling overwhelmed and discouraged. Try to be as detailed as possible. For example, instead of saying I want to go to the gym every day, try saying I want to go to the gym for at least one hour every day and I want to be able to lift, twist, squat, and do other elements of fitness that are necessary for independent living. Alice Boy's PhD former clinical psychologist turned writer says that being detailed in your goals will help set a clear path for you to follow and you'll feel less overwhelmed or fearful. It will also make your goals not seem so difficult to achieve. Remember no goal is too small. You've got this. From tasks to habits. The key to achieving your goals is consistency, turning these tasks into routines. Mel Robbins, a motivational speaker and author says that's what it takes to get you what you want. Not big scary leaps once a year but small, irritating moves every single day. Picture your growth as a garden. Just like a garden requires care and attention to thrive, your personal growth requires the same level of dedication and commitment. When you first start your tasks, it may feel overwhelming and difficult. However, as you consistently intend to your garden, you will begin to develop habits that make the process easier and more natural. You'll learn which plants need more water, which areas of the garden receive more sunlight and how to manage challenges like pests and weeds. You'll start to see the fruits of your labor in the form of blooming flowers and bountiful harvests. When you make these tasks a habit, it becomes easier over time and you can watch as your personal garden flourishes and thrives. Embrace failure. Don't fear failure. Fear being in the exact same place next year as you are today. Mel Robbins. Failure is not the opposite of success. It's a part of the journey towards success. Don't let fear of failure hold you back from pursuing your goals. Instead, use failure as an opportunity to learn, grow, and improve. Growth is not linear and there will be setbacks and challenges along the way. Be kind to yourself through this process of transformation and remember that every step you take towards positive change is progress, no matter how small. Pat yourself on the back. The fact that you're here watching this video and wanting to transform your life is an amazing first step to self-growth. Remember to acknowledge and celebrate your progress along the way.
