12 Steps to Building theIdeal Lifestyle

1. Define the ideallifestyle

For astart, ask yourself those two questions: “What do I want my life to belike?” and “Who do I want to be in it?”. Answer them in the best and mosthonest way possible, because this will be your definition of what you want inlife and who you want to become, and will eventually become your reality aftersome time.

Animportant thing you don’t want to miss is accepting the idea that you need tobecome someone else in order to live another kind of lifestyle. Many peoplething what could they improve in the outer world and tend to forget that manyinner changes will happen too that are often more crucial. So be aware of thatand embrace the qualities you need to build to become that person.

2. Eliminate theunnecessary

Withoutdoing this, you can’t go any further. Because there are many things in yourlife right now that are preventing you from moving on. They may be people,thoughts, events, habits and so on. What you need to do is to eliminate thembecause they don’t have a place in your ideal lifestyle.

I don’twant to repeat myself (I’ve already written about it in a previous post), sohere are the things that hold you back.

3. Find what worksbest for you

Nowthat you have eliminated the unnecessary, you can make another step in yourpersonal development. And this is the time to try and fail as much as possible.What I mean is, you need to find what works best for you. And the best way isto try as many different things as you can and preferably fail many times.Because there is no better teacher than experience and once you fail atsomething, you will know whether or not it’s for you and if it’s worth workingon it.

Experimentwith everything.You will eventually find our which is the best sport for you,the foods that give you energy and boost your metabolism, the best time duringthe day for personal projects or working, the habits you need to establish, howyou want to look, talk and behave and so on. You may decide that waking up at 5a.m. is just not your things and although it’s connected with productivity andmost successful people do it, you’re just more productive around lunch, or inthe evening. So listen to your instincts in this case and do what’s best foryou.

Testdifferent sleep pattes, working hours, behavior, motivation strategies and soon. Find your thing and stick to it.

4. Build a fewkeystone habits

Akeystone habit is a habit that provokes a chain of other activities that aregood for you.

Gettingup early for me is connected to a moing ritual with a healthy breakfast, aquick workout and a positive start of the day. This usually includes readingaffirmations out loud and writing something. Going to the gym every day helpsme stay on track. It’s followed by alteating hot and cold showers and stayingmotivated for the rest of the day. The earlier you build such habits, thebetter. Once you make them stick], everything else will improve too. So work onthem now and concentrate on other things later.

Hereare the best habits you can start implementing now:

• working out;

• meditating;

• eating healthy;

• getting up early;

• planning your day from the night before;

Theyare proven to work wonders and it’s very important to stick to them no matterwhat. Just make them lifelong habits and do the certain thing even if you’re ona vacation, even after you’ve had a bad day, even when everything seemspointless.

5. Find you passion

Thiscan happen by listening to your inner voice, focusing on the things you enjoydoing, and trying new things.

Thepoint is to not only find it, but also embrace it, get better in this thingsand make it an essential part of your daily life.

Thatwill brings you such happiness, contentedness and purpose that you’ll neverdoubt it’s your thing.

6. Make it your job

Herethings get a little harder as you’ll need to work on your passion as you’veprobably never worked before in your life. But the difference this time is thatyou’ll be doing something you love, so you can’t really call it working.

If youwant to become a writer, write every single day, whenever you can. Try toimprove your writing at the same time and find ways to promote your work.

If youare a gym freak, master your performance in the gym. Shape your body. Leaeverything in this niche and get a certificate. Become a personal trainer andhelp others achieve the body you want. This way you’ll communicate only withpeople willing to improve themselves and will spend most of your days in thegym. Maybe open one of your own one day.

I gave twototally random examples because I wanted to show you how absolutely everythingin this world can be mastered and tued into something prosperous. Once youfind what your passion is, work hard on it, dedicate time, energy and effort,believe in it every single day, you’ll manage to make it your job.

Andthis will be a dream job. One that perfectly suits an ideal lifestyle.

7. Decide what timeyou want to spend working

Arrangethings in such a way that you’ll be able to work every second week, a few hourseach day, or 4 days in a week. It could be anything.

Butthis, of course, will be after you’ve worked hard enough and long enough (ayear or so) and have tued what you love into a business.

8. Travel often

Travelingis one of the best things you can do in life. It’s important to make itsomething you’ll do at least once or twice a year. Preferably every 2-3 months.Most people usually travel to get out of reality and forget about theirproblems. But you’ve build such a lifestyle that has a great reality and youdon’t want escape from it. Traveling is just because you don’t want to getstuck, to miss out on the beautiful things the world has to offer. You willrefind yourself too while doing it, lea a lot about other cultures and seethe beauty of life.

Thisway your life will never be sedentary and you’ll never get bored.

9. Have hobbies

Findout other things you enjoy doing and dedicate time to them every now and then.

10. Be always on thego

Nevermiss an opportunity to lea something new. No matter who you are now and whatyour income is, you always have what to lea.

Don’tneglect your spiritual and mental world. Meditate, read good books and findinspiration.

11. Always be openfor new things

Try todo something new and something you fear a few times a month.

It maybe approaching strangers, bungee jumping, public speaking, dancing, visitingnew countries, trying new sports, etc.

Each ofthem will be an amazing experience and will make your life even more exciting.

12. Give and begrateful

Givingis the best investment and can make you way more contented than buying newstuff. So be able to give as much as you can, be it advice, help,encouragement, money, stuff you don’t use and need. Volunteeror give for charity. Also never forget to be grateful. Each step of thisjouey should go along with appreciation. Everything you have, even when it’snot more, is amazing and a big reason to feel deeply grateful. Express thatfeeling everyday towards the things, people, events and stuff in your life.

Yousee, building the ideal lifestyle may take some time, but it’s not impossible.Actually anyone can have it. They just need a buing desire to achieve allthat, willingness to sacrifice, patience and a strong belief.

Eventually,they’ll understand it’s all worth it. And enjoying the jouey is one of thethings that make the ideal lifestyle such a sweet experience.
