Great self-help advice from Kim Giles, life coach
- Surround yourself with happy
people. Stay away from complainers.
- Start a gratitude journal and
write in it daily.
- Break out of your rut. Take
risks, change habits and start doing new and interesting things.
- Do something nice for yourself
every week.
- Set some goals.
- Keep commitments you make to
yourself so you can accomplish your goals.
- Learn something new every week.
- Plan something fun to look
forward to.
- Choose to trust your value
isn’t on the line. You are perfectly who you are meant to be at this point
in your journey. You are good enough right now.
- Choose to trust that your life
is just a classroom and every experience a lesson.
- Don’t stress about things that
are out of your control.
- Set realistic expectations
about other people’s behavior. Recognize that all bad behavior is a
request for love.
- Increase your ability to
respond to your life. Read self-help books, take classes and learn better
ways to handle problems. Work on your relationship skills.
- Take some pressure off
yourself. You don’t have to do everything perfectly.
- Quit comparing yourself to
other people.
- Speak your truth. Stop holding
things in that build resentment.
- Say no and protect yourself
from guilt trip obligations. If you can’t do it with a smile, don’t do it.
- Choose to be more loving to
others.
- Listen more and talk less.
- Find ways to show your spouse
you unconditionally love him. When you choose to be more loving, it increases
feelings of self-worth because you like who you are.
When you take back
your power, choose happiness and create good self- worth, your relationship
with your spouse will improve. This happens because when you love who you are,
other people tend to love you more, too.
