This is going to be a long one so grab a snack and get comfortable.
There's a science behind all habits but for this post we'll just focus on the over all picture of healthy mindset habits.
Habits run deeper than your daily day by day activities. Where do you think these come from? They come from the repeated decisions you make and eventually fall into what becomes, your habits.
Now how do we achieve these "healthy mindset habits"? There's definitely a way and I'm going to tell you. I consider these your highest performing habits. These are habits that are going to affect you in the long run, for your future. So these aren't going to be daily habits but they absolutely can be! It just begins with you. You have to start making these changes within yourself in order to see a real outcome surface to start affecting your daily living. You have to basically rewire your brain and retrain its way of thinking. We were taught to live one way, in our comfort zone. In order to achieve the impossible, we have to do the impossible. Easier said than done right? This starts with the habits we continue to use in our comfort zone. We have to leave these habits there and start the rewiring of our brain. Getting to the point of higher performance requires leaving your comfort zone and feeling uncomfortable.
"Why would I want to feel uncomfortable?"
In order to achieve something you've never achieved, you have to do something you've never done. Now I'm going to share with you how to get here!
1. Stick to your deadlines.
No matter the cost. Make it your priority to get it done and on the time you need to have it done. Don't talk yourself around it, talk yourself right into it.
2. Set Massive Goals
Set the goals you thought were impossible. The ones that seem too far fetched for your reach. These are the goals you need to be emphasizing to achieve. Start by making a list so you can create the foundations you need for each one. You got this girl, we're in this together.
3. Pick and Choose What Affects You
This is always easier said than done because you don't really realize your true power until you control how something affects you. And I don't mean just blocking someone. What I mean is if and when you ask yourself, "Is this really worth my valuable energy?" If the first answer that comes to mind is no, then drop it like it's hot. Energy is real, it's all around us. It radiates and vibrates constantly no matter where we are. Remember that next you want to say something to someone who does not agree with you.
4. If It's Not Benefitting You in Anyway, It's Hurting You
How would you say this is a habit? This particular action requires you to physically make changes. The famous one of this is our health. The benefits of maintaining a healthy lifestyle always out weight that one time we want to shove a whole pint of Ben and Jerry's down our throats. (Let me clarify I am a firm believer in balance so this action is not a bad thing to do. Live your best life sister) What we put into our bodies and how we maintain them is so important. Please do your research and get the help to feel your greatest again. It is so worth it.
5. Keep A Consistent Journal
The benefits of keeping a journal are amazing. It's your personal thought process and written how you want it and when you want to. You can write about anything and everything and I'm a firm believer only the best of the best keep a journal.
6. Learn When To Say No And Mean It
Learning how to say no is probably going to be the ultimate high performing habit. It's literally going to be the door that is responsible for how your life is going to go on what you allow to come in from here on out. You are in full control at this point. Now, ask yourself, "Is this worth it?" "How will this affect me in the future?" If it's similar to a no answer.. DITCH IT IMMEDIATELY.
I'm hoping my "wooh-wooh" talk on higher performing habits makes sense to some of you because I, myself, am constantly reading and searching more into it because I KNOW there's so much more that goes into the topic.
Start to make the change today. Love yourself, love the life you're ready to create, and love the person you are becoming.
