10 healthy habits to improve your life.


As we already know, life is so amazing, it is filled with both the wonderful times and "not so" wonderful times ....and honestly those good and bad times are really what makes life so amazing.

As an amazing, beautiful, and scary life is there is only one thing that is certain "Life is too short" and we definitely need to enjoy every moment of it. Well, I am saying this because most of us don't really know how to enjoy life. Most times we tend to focus only on the bad part and forget the incredible part. "And honestly, it's not healthy". We also regularly develop some certain attitude that forms our habit.

Aristotle said "we are what we repeatedly do. Excellence then is not an act but a habit.

Habits are so powerful, and we definitely need to be very careful because habits can rule our life. so it is very important we develop healthy habits from time to time.

What are the healthy habits?
Healthy habits are any behavior that benefits your physical, mental, and emotional health. And guys in order to truly enjoy the life you need to develop healthy habits but it's not going to be easy it requires a lot of sacrifices but it is definitely possible "not easy but possible" to change to more healthy habits and enjoy your life. 

Here are important habits that will change your life.

Eat healthily.
If you are really serious about having a healthy lifestyle then you'll have to focus on your eating habits. Eating healthy is not about staying unrealistically thin or depriving yourself of food you love it's about feeling great, improving your health, and boosting your mood.
Have in mind that eating healthy doesn't need to be complicated, you just have to:
*focus on avoiding processed and packaged food. 
*eat more of your own cooked meals. 
*switch to more healthy alternative (like fried chicken to grilled chicken)
*add more fruits and vegetables to your diet. 

Exercise and meditate.
Exercising and meditating daily really helps to strengthen your body and enhance your mental health. I know most of the time we always say " I don't have the time" I completely understand but just 10 minutes of exercising and meditating a day can really do a lot of difference in your life.
If you really want to create that perfect version of yourself and improve your health then make this habit a daily ritual.
Meditating helps to keep your mind clear and calm. So anytime you find it difficult to have a peaceful moment just breathe and calm your thoughts.

Drink water regularly.
Drinking water regularly is very important because it helps to improve your skin appearances and enhance your digestive health. 6 to 8 cups of water a day can do the trick. There are also apps you can use to track your water intake if it's difficult for you to adapt to this habit.

Sleep.
Sleep is so essential to your health and well being. It has a huge effect on how you feel mentally and physically. People that find it difficult to sleep always end up being irritated, sluggish, and are at the risk of developing diseases. So if you are finding it difficult to have a night rest, the following habits will help.
*reduced day time naps.
*exercise daily.
*use meditation techniques.
*eat healthily.

Accept your weakness.
Most people sometimes focus on their weaknesses, they worry about it and work so hard to change it but little do they know that all those weakness are actually their strength. Weaknesses are qualities that make everyone unique. You'll have to make a habit to embrace your weakness and always love yourself. Accepting your weakness is very healthy and helps to build one's confidence.

Invest in yourself.
Yes,  taking care of yourself physically, mentally, and maintain a work-life balance is very essential. So instead of trying to be like someone or a celebrity you saw on social media you can invest in yourself. You can invest in yourself by developing or teaching yourself new skills. Sometimes it can require a significant investment of both time and money to do. 

Form an amazing relationship.
It is very healthy to have a good, strong, and beautiful relationship with someone because it's impossible to survive this life alone. But you need to be careful of the people you allow in your life because they can affect your personality. So it is important you make friends with people who love, support you, and lead you out of damaging situations.

Have a positive mindset.
Positive thinkers are healthier and less stressed than negative thinkers. Even if having a positive mindset does not come naturally to you, there are a lot of benefits that will sway you to develop these healthy habits, like
*it will increase your confidence and self-esteem 
*it will improve your wellness and immunity.
*it will relief you from stress  
*you will be able to make more friends.

Read.
Reading is a very important habit we all need to adapt to.  I am not talking about your daily reading habits around twitter and Facebook but reading an actual book. Making a hobby out of this habit has many benefits. Like:
*it improves focus and concentration 
*it improves mental stimulation 
*it gives more knowledge 
*it increases vocabulary expansion 
*it improves your memory 
*it gives strong analytical thinking skills.

Make self care a priority.
Making self-care a priority is a very healthy way to enjoy your life. Yes, you might think it's a selfish way to live but it's not true because giving yourself a self-care is an amazing way to feel relaxed, vibrant, radiant, and to be the better version of yourself.

I know it's not going to be easy but if you want a healthy lifestyle, you will have to make this habit a daily ritual and believe in yourself.

Have you ever gone through series of difficult and frustrating situations in life and you just wish you could just turn back time to give your younger self a piece of advice that will prevent the whole thing from ever happening? Well, that thought has crossed my mind. What will you really do if you can travel back in time? Maybe you would give your younger self some few tips on how to make money, dress properly, or even attract the opposite sex.

I got myself involved in a lot of things I would have never thought of.  Nonetheless, I have summed up what I have learned some of these lessons helped in deve...

You guys might thinking having a true friend is kind of hard to find and even more harder to keep, you would have to invest time and effort in doing that but believe me once you find that special friend you get to discover some cool benefits in have a BFF, like  When you are feeling lonely and depressed they always know how to make you feel better.
