Most of us make new year's resolutions with the hope of success, happiness and the fulfillment of goals for the new year. However, we also know that making good things happen depends on our outlook, determination, vision for the future and how we use those factors to our advantage. Here are a few tips to help you achieve the kind of self-improvement that can make this year the year you finally take that big leap forward.
Personal Growth & Self-Improvement: Give Your Life a Boost This Year
Focus On The Positive

Own What You Do

Let Go Of What You Can't ControlIt’s easy to believe that if we complain enough about things that don’t go our way, things will somehow change. When you get angry about missing a tennis game because it rained or you get frustrated because you got caught in traffic on the way to work, it can dominate your thinking. Complain though you might, these are things you can’t control, and getting worked up only makes you feel worse. When things don’t go well, make a point of counting to 10 or laughing it off and turning your attention toward something positive.

Make It About Relationships, Not AssetsFew things are more rewarding than spending time with the people you love. Make a point of spending more time with family and friends and a little less time at the gym or office. Building those relationships will give you a strong emotional support group and benefit you more than the accumulation of material things or always focusing solely on yourself.

This year, focus on building relationships and making self-improvements that can help you achieve your dreams. Look into something you’ve always wanted to accomplish, whether it’s starting a new business, hobby or even getting a degree and moving into a new field. Personal growth and self-improvement are often about taking a chance and making a change.
