If you want to feel good, real good, here’s what
you should do.
1. Walk Tall. The most significant effort you can
make to boost your morale is to let the world see a new, confident You. And the
first step towards that is to walk talk and confident, strutting through life
as if you know exactly where you’re
headed.
2. Empower Yourself. There is no greater feeling
of power than that which is endowed by knowledge. Identify the areas you would
like to empower yourself and take a go at it. Is it Art? History? Politics?
Economics? Science? Technology? What stops you from picking up books, surfing
the Internet or even just asking questions?
3. Energize Yourself. When you breathe in,
imagine you are breathing in all the goodness of the world, allowing your
system to be nourished and refreshed by it. Having thus cleansed your system,
when you breathe out, your emotional toxins are dispelled. Enjoy the new sense
of power you feel!
Breathe in and say, “I’m powerful,” breathe out
and say, “I’m beautiful.” Repeat this a number of times and you will feel a new
rush of blood through your body.
4. Feel Good About Yourself. Learn to love
yourself and the life you lead. Yes, it could be better and you can make it so.
But if you don’t like how things are going, that is no reason to waste what you
already have in hand in the hope of what you can make of it. Remember, a bird
in hand is worth two in the bush! There will always be those extra kilos to
shed, those qualities you wish your partner had, that car you wish to buy, or
the house you wish to own
5. Get Fit. Being fit and healthy is the greatest
energy and confidence booster you can give yourself. Instead of blaming
yourself for not eating right and for binging on the wrong things, cultivate
some positive addictions. Try going for a daily dose of exercise: be it a walk,
a workout at the gym or just floor exercises at home.
6. Eat Judiciously. Rather than feeling dejected
at the weight you keep putting on because of a junk food eating habit, develop
the habit of eating healthy foods to keep yourself fit and slim. It is said
that you can actually eat to remain slim by eating right. Experts opine that
the process of chewing and digesting foods such as celery, mushrooms, broccoli
and tomatoes, when not fried, actually makes you expend more calories than you
take by eating them.
7. Remain Calm. This is indeed a rare quality and
if you were to successfully cultivate it more than half of your life’s worries
would be over. Stress and tension are the cause of more diseases than we know
of. Fatigue and irritability are also caused by stress.
