Changing your life is all about filling in your mind and your life with positive people and those which can have a better influence on you. 

I have only recently started listening to podcasts and feel everyone must listen to good podcasts because it is so easy, you can listen to them on your walk, while travelling, while exercising, while cooking or any time to work on yourself.

To completely change your life and focus on yourself, you need to at least remove yourself from all social media channels for at least three months. When I decided to change my life, I deactivated Facebook and also stopped using Whatsapp for more than a year and it was in that year that my life began to move in a positive direction. 

It is honestly so much better to focus on yourself when you are free from the constant scrolling and mindless watching. Start being mindful of how you talk to yourself. What you speak to yourself is a powerful energy which passes onto you. Be aware of how you are talking to yourself because you are listening. 

Make sure you are saying all positive things and don’t belittle yourself by calling yourself lazy, unworthy of love, careless or any such things as you become what you say to yourself. So make sure you only say good things to yourself. 

Books have been my greatest source of inspiration for change. People ask me after waking up so early, I won’t be able to do all the things I wish to do. If you want to change your life you have to set goals and setting weekly goals is a good starting point of yourself. 

In conclusion of change yourself completely most of us don’t realise how unkind we are to ourselves, we are often so hard on ourselves and our self talk language with ourselves. 

Studies of this topic explain how to change your life. Nature heals and uplifts us. It gives us positive energy and fuels our creative side. Spending more time in nature actually shifts and transforms our life by being more mindful of our life.
