365 Mini Habits for An Incredibly Satisfied Life

I know you are not happy with your life right now. You are looking for a positive change into your day to day habits so that when you look back after a while, you can pat yourself on the back and say: “Well done champ!”

I was expecting you here.

I knew that after seeing the headline, if you decided to click on the article, you are looking for a better change in your life.

“How’s you”?

Whenever someone asks this question we wearing our masquerade tell them we are doing well.

Are we? Hell NO! We all are struggling to be the best.

You might never ever be happy for whole 24 hours of day, let alone whole month, year or so.

And frankly speaking, change is tough. You can’t change your entire persona in one day.

But there are some mini habits which can make you more sorted, organised and less chaotic gradually, bit by bit, slowly.

I am not asking you to inculcate all the 365 mini habits. Just pick any 5 mini habits you like. Remember that a little progress is better than no progress.

This list can also serve as your new year resolution list. So, let’s begin the rundown:

1. Remove clutter — Delete all the unnecessary Emails, donate unused or old clothes. Make your life more organised.
2. Talk less — Don’t talk a lot specially to your enemy. Do not fight too often with one enemy, or you will teach him all your art of war.
3. Drink water — Drink one glass water at the starting of your day. This is the least you can do to hydrate your body after an 8 hour of sleep.
4. Do something for yourself — Manicure, little bit of grooming or even an exfoliating scrub. Do whatever makes you feel better.
5. Help someone — Be it solving a very small problem someone faced or a great favour, helping someone always boost up your mood immediately.
6. Express Gratitude — As you make gratitude a way of life, you will wake each morning so excited to be alive. You will find yourself completely in love with life.
7. Stop Complaining — If you complain about things in your life, you are on the complaining frequency, and you are not in a position to attract what you want.Get yourself on to the appreciation frequency, and the law of attraction can only surround you with people who are in a positive state.
8. Listen one song every day — Music is to soul what food is to body. Music, in itself, is a healing. It’s an explosive expression of humanity. It’s something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we’re from, everyone loves music.
9. Always carry a pen with you, especially while traveling. You know offline is the only available option sometime.
10. Don’t be more serious about someone’s business than they are.
11. Pay attention to the smell of your home when you come back from a trip - that’s what it smells like to guests all the time, you just get used to it.
12. Respect boundaries- When a friend is upset, ask him one simple question before saying anything else: “Do you want to talk about it or do you want to distract from it?”
13. Keep your resume updated — Keep a separate master resume with all previous work experience When sending out a resume for a application. Duplicate the file and remove anything that may be irrelevant to the position.You never know when the past experience might become relevant again and you don’t want to forget about it.
14. Accept your growth — Just because you did something wrong in past, doesn’t mean you can’t advocate against it now. It doesn’t make you a hypocrite. You grew. Don’t let people use your past to invalidate your current mindset. Growth is a concept. Embrace it.
15. People seek happiness by forgetting themselve, whether by watching a movie, by being in the arms of the person they love, or by drinking alcohol. But, it is just a temporary escape from your real life. The real and permanent happiness lies within our heart.
