Kaizen Secrets: 10 Tiny Improvements You Can Make to Yourself Right Now
We all want to be better. We all want to be the best versions of ourselves. The problem is that getting to this point can be difficult when you have so little time and energy left in a typical day.
Attempting to start a huge new workout regime, or set up a home business will often just be met with resistance, failure, and disappointment. These are huge changes that you hope to enact, and very frequently we don’t have the energy or time to make them happen.
So instead, why not start very small and then let those little changes add up to a better you? Here are ten tiny improvements you can make to yourself right now.
1 Make Your Bed in the Morning
This is a great way to “train” your willpower, not to mention improve the bed you come home to that evening. You’ll even sleep better!
2 Wake Up Ten Minutes Earlier
What could you do with ten more minutes in your day? Just move your clock ten minutes earlier, you’ll hardly notice the difference.
3 Take Omega-3 Fatty Acid
This boosts brain function, energy, immunity, and more. It also helps to fight inflammation, and most of us don’t get enough of it.
4 Sits Outside
For at least five minutes a day. You’ll sleep better, boost vitamin D, get more fresh air, and even improve your temperature regulation and immune system. Try doing something you already do but move it outside – like exercise.
5 Meditate for Five Minutes
Meditation has HUGE and profound benefits. It’s also something that can be hard to stick with. So start with just five minutes a day, that’s actually enough to see improvements in mood, focus, and more.
6 Drink More Water
You’ll look slimmer, look better, and feel more energetic. Most of us are permanently dehydrated.
7 Get New Shoes
Or a watch. Or a suit. In short – make one small change to improve the way you look. You’ll feel better and people will treat you differently.
8 Breath With Your Mouth Closed
If you don’t already, make this a commitment. You’ll find it actually improves your looks, and it helps to better filter and improve the oxygen coming in.
9 Do 20 Press Ups Every Day
This will boost energy levels, tone your abs, increase your pushing strength, and serve as the basis for a larger training program.
10 Floss Your Mouth
A small thing that not only makes your teeth whiter, but has been shown to reduce risk of cancer and more!
