Are you looking to make positive changes in your life to improve your health, emotional well-being, daily habits, productivity, or relationships?
We all have areas where we want to improve and become a better version of ourselves and better cope with life challenges. You are a wonderful work in progress, and we want to help you reach your self-improvement goals. On this page, you’ll find articles on a variety of self-improvement topics with actionable steps and ideas you can use.
The thoughts and beliefs you hold about yourself form your perception of the world and your place in it.
Repetitive negative thoughts cultivate limiting beliefs and prevent you from living your best life.
Luckily, the opposite is also true.
You have the power to create whatever reality you desire.
If you’re dissatisfied or want something different or better for yourself and your life, know that you absolutely can achieve it–as long as you believe in it.
Does a negative body image dominate your thoughts?
Is your self-esteem suffering as a result?
Having a negative body image makes you vulnerable to mood disorders and eating disorders.
Disliking your body could even make relationships more difficult or motivate you to hurt yourself.
These destructive mental habits plague many people, but you can turn them around with body-positive affirmations.
Repeating supportive statements about your body every day will help you escape the unhappiness of body negativity.
Have you ever made an aggressive to-do list before bed but woke up the next morning feeling completely unmotivated to tackle it?
Or set a lofty goal for yourself only to talk yourself out of taking any concrete steps toward progress?
If so, then you may be a victim of negative self-talk.
What you tell yourself and believe about yourself and your abilities significantly impacts your life and well-being.
Positive affirmations for motivation may be just what you need to help you succeed.
Have you ever had one of those days when it seems like everything is going wrong?
We tend to blame ourselves during these times and find ourselves thinking, “Is something wrong with me?”
The answer is no, and you’re not alone in these feelings.
Everyone experiences self-defeating thoughts on occasion.
While these thoughts tend to feel like a black hole, you can pull yourself out of the darkness and recognize that you are okay just as you are.
Ever gone from zero to furious in a second — just because of something someone else said or did?
Then you probably have a fair idea of what your anger triggers are.
But what about other emotions?
One person who’s normally pretty confident might feel suddenly insecure when triggered by something he hears, sees, or even smells.
Another who’s normally chill even in the most stressful work environment suddenly has a full-on panic attack after getting triggered by something no one else would have suspected.
What’s at work, here? What are emotional triggers, and how do we get them?
And what we can do about them once we learn what they are?
Until you recognize the signs of having trust issues, you can’t take the necessary steps toward healing.
And that’s what you need right now.
Because somewhere along the way, someone broke your trust.
A lover, a friend, a spouse.
And the effects of that betrayal or failure don’t just go away.
Fortunately, the more you know, the sooner you can learn how to fix trust issues and build stronger, more connected romantic relationships.
The short answer is no — not until you resolve or heal the causes of your lack of trust.
However, you may not be in the position to walk away from your relationship.
Or you may not want to, even though it’s painful.
At the root of your trust issues is the belief that you don’t deserve a relationship where you feel loved unconditionally and worth more than your usefulness.
You know the feeling – the one that leaves you weak in the knees when you meet someone new, and sparks fly.
You want to be around each other constantly, and you desperately want to please each other.
The beginning stages of relationships are exciting and consume much of your time and energy.
This is normal to an extent, but what happens when you become overly involved or attached and leave your friends, family, and independence in the dust?
If you’ve broken things off with a narcissist, you probably know what happens when you don’t respond to a narcissist text.
They might even double down on the toxic behavior just to punish you for breaking free.
They’ll use texting (and other means) to either provoke you or draw you back in whenever possible.
So, it pays to know what to look out for and how to respond.
After reading this post, you’ll also know when not to.
