Bringing Up Positive Habits for a Fulfilling and Succesful Life

-

Positive habits lead to a positive mindset. Inculcating positive habits in our day-to-day activities can enhance our well-being and happiness and make us more productive. The question is how do we start? Here are some small steps to take on the journey of building positive habits.

Choose habits that you enjoy

Start with something that you like doing, this makes the habit more enjoyable rather than a task that you need to do. Let’s say you want to start exercising, then going to the gym maybe a good option, but if you don’t like it, then there is no use in training in the gym. Instead, if you like a sport, like tennis, you should do that. It is exercise and, at the same time, more fun!

Start Small

Set small goals for yourself, If you want to wake up early in the morning, you may not be able to wake up at 5:30 am every day from the beginning, start slowly by waking up an hour early, let your body get used to it, and then better your routine. The key to building your positive habits is starting small, little steps, keeping manageable goals, and always improving upon yourself.

Consistency is Key

When you are trying to bring up new habits, more than working on perfecting them, it’s important to stay consistent with them. Maybe you are planning on studying for 1 hour every day, but for some reason, you could not do that one day. It doesn’t mean you failed. Yes, keeping consistent and continuing the habit is necessary, but embracing setbacks is just as important.

Reward yourself

Go for a a fun activity, a favorite dish, or a fancy chocolate when you achieve small milestones. Doing so will keep you engaged, motivated, and consistent in the habits you inculcate.

Building good habits is essential for a successful life. But you must remember that beginning small, being consistent, and enjoying these habits is crucial. Start today, start small and discover how good habits can bring you great joy and success in life.

My Experience Studying in Scotland and India

The Astounding Eye Opener "Having grown up in India and experienced the rigors of our education system, my visit to Scotland was nothing short of an eye-opener. The stark difference between how children are taught in the two countries made me reflect deeply on the essence of learning itself. One particular experience from my time in Scotland stands out vividly in my memory. During a history lesson, the teacher asked us to write a poem inspired by the events we were studying. My brain, wired by years of Indian schooling, immediately started organizing facts and details into my poem. I crammed dates, names, and key moments, thinking that was the way to excel. But when we shared our work with the class, I was stunned! My Scottish classmates, even those who admitted they weren’t great at academics, had created these beautiful, deeply emotional poems. They wrote about the suffering of the people, the human stories behind the facts, and the lessons we could learn from history. Their cre...

  The key lies in discerning between good habits, which nurture growth, and bad habits, which hinder progress. Good habits empower us to grasp knowledge effectively, while bad habits, like cramming or neglecting self-care, erode our potential. Training the mind is essential—just as a gardener nurtures a sapling, we must nurture our mental and physical discipline daily. Habits are not mere routines; they form the foundation for lifelong learning, health, and success. Shamita Jagarlamudi Fill a cup, pour an Ocean! Habits mold and shape who we are and lead the path to who we want to be. And science has recently discovered that we can shape and mold our habits too. Let’s talk about education, where consistency often bridges the gap between effort and achievement. There, habit-building is nothing short of a transformative experience. Like boond boond se sagar banta hai , each small action, even seemingly insignificant, fills a magnificent ocean. This poetic journey of daily effort displ...

Mastering the Hustle Hacksaw

Cutting through challenges and barriers with hard work and determination is the essence of what drives us to achieve our goals. Imagine an intimidating task ahead—initially, it feels overwhelming, and you may find yourself completely clueless. This is where many give up, overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of the work ahead of us. How is what is not present, not yet, and just an illusion is deceiving us into being overwhelmed? Success lies in refusing to back out and focusing on climbing the first step. This process can be likened to the concept of activation energy in chemistry. To initiate a reaction, a certain energy threshold must be crossed. Similarly, in life, in the things we do, the initial effort requires some energy, a push, and persistence. But once you push past this threshold, progress becomes easier, and soon you enjoy a joyride. The first step may be the hardest, but it is also the most crucial. Believing in yourself, committing to the task, and completing your work selfl...
