Movement is life , and life is a path, and on the way it is necessary to take a break. There is such a thing - life audit. This is a way to take everything out of life, carefully sort out and return only what is needed. And then the most interesting thing will begin - replenishment of stocks of happiness. After all, a place has already been made available for him. Audit is useful when everything seems to be there, but something is missing.

How we respond to others tells more about ourselves. Especially if we judge people in absentia. Condemnation of others makes your face angry and poisons your life , even if you feel better against someone else's background. Try to abstract yourself from other people's failures or mistakes, even if they persistently ask for your opinion. See how much good energy will remain in your soul.

Do not try to immediately endow your new self with ideal features. Just try to fantasize like little kids. Imagine your improved self in 5 years and invite to a tea party. Sit down together at the table, see how you look, what you drink, what you eat, how you talk. Do you like this person? What can you start doing right now? What should you give up? Turn this process into a fun game. Gradually, you will begin to behave like him.

A little story for the mood : once a young artist came to Picasso. He wanted to become the same famous and asked the Master what to do. It was ready to give up all the joys of life in order to become just as successful. To which Picasso replied: “Love caviar and champagne. Only then will you know what it is worth creating for. "

Learning to listen to the thoughts of others will help you find weaknesses that are worth working on. You should not always follow in the footsteps of others - you need to appreciate the hint from the outside. Standing firmly on your own, but being receptive to ideas from the outside is a smart life strategy.

Change is progress's best friend. The fear of plunging into something new, on the contrary, closes the individual. A creative nature can change appearance, occupation, sign up for interesting courses, etc.

We have one set of looks that shouldn't be changed. There are so many examples in the world when people who are deficient in development do not pay attention to ridicule from the outside and succeed in a specific matter. You can only feel free if you come to terms with yourself in the present.

Imitation of idols in the style of behavior, dress, attempts to please for their career advancement - all this completely kills independence. This skill is necessary to create your own "author" set of characteristics. Hiding the present under an artificial mask, we forget about what we really want. You need to follow trends wisely.

It is possible to be, and not to seem, when you do not go to the goal for "show" and respect in front of someone. Everyone lives for themselves and creates the future based on their own principles. You can make concessions, compromise, if you want to support a person in healthy competition, and not blind struggle.

How to be yourself if you are constantly afraid to make any unnecessary movement? To stop living in a museum, where there is a fragile vase at every step, it is worth learning lightness. Blaming yourself with thoughts of failure is worth a short time, and then thinking about how you can prevent this in the future. You should allow yourself a slight oversight, but take full responsibility .

It is difficult to understand what you really want without certainty. Finding your own guidelines for meeting basic needs is a surefire way to explore your potential . Any activity must be carried out consciously for an important purpose. What we want badly stimulates the inner energy to find the path of life.

Knowledge broadens the benchmarks for new opportunities. It is important for a person to periodically ask himself: “What can I do? How far can I go? What do I need for a specific result? " Understanding your abilities means using valuable resources to acquire new skills. The meaning of life can be hidden in something unknown.

How can you achieve anything at all without testing? It's hard to start a long journey without motivation , so you need to listen to your inner voice. There will always be options for improving your own result. This is the same learning, only in the form of experiments.

The life path is long, it is important to be free on it, and not constrained by the opinion of parents, friends, colleagues. Generally accepted norms should only superficially educate a person, but otherwise he should be guided by his own model of behavior. Rights are written not only in the Constitution, but also in the freedom of self-realization . No one has the right to restrict the type of activity if it does not oppose common sense and the law.
