Your Golden Compass To Success In Life

The latest hot topic that I have been discussing or touching on when meet up with friends is either Self Improvement or What Do You Want in life.

To me, they are kind of inter-related to each other.

Life is prone to have challenges, issues, problems, obstacles, etc ahead of us. However, it shouldn't bother or even hinder us from becoming what we want to be or ought to be.

That's where self improvement play a role. We must keep improving and growing ourselves bigger than our problems. Then, the so-called problem will be too small to be a real problem to us. That's how we should manage our life and achieve what we want.

To help some of my friends to explore further, I have posted some of the relevant articles on self improvement and what do you really want in life in this blog lately.

At the same time, I recommend one of the latest cutting edge tool by SkyQuestCom for friends who are keen to improve and catch up with what they have been left lagging behind.

Some of the friends are open to the ideas and start learning. Some of them are still lost...

To help my lost friends, I am sharing another 8 questions you can ask yourself and as a guide to self improvement.

Hope this is helpful to you, my friends...

1. What do you really want?
The question of the ages. The No.1 reason why people don't get what they want is because they do not know what they want.

So many things you want to do with your life and so little time to even go about during the day. Find something that you are good at can help realize that small step towards further improvement.

2. Do you need a change?
There's always the easy way and the right way when it comes to decision making. We can be comfortable with what we are doing by taking the easy way out. However, is that the right way or the way that will lead us to what we want?

If not, we might need a change to be back on the right track.

How to change? What are the tool and ways available to help to change?

Personally, I attend self improvement seminars and courses on annual basis. This is one of the fastest way to help gather the latest information and technology for self improvement purpose.

3. What's the bright side of all this changes?
With so much that is happening around us esp for those who are running on the rat race and stuck at the 9 to 5 job. There seem to be no room for even considering that light at the end of the tunnel.

We can still see it as something positive without undergoing so much scrutiny. If it's a train at the end of the tunnel, take it for a ride and see what makes the world go round!

Never try, never know...

4. Have you done enough for yourself?
Have you? or is there something more you want to do? Discontentment in every aspect can be dangerous in large doses, but in small amounts you'll be able to see and do stuff you could never imagine that you could be doing.

5. Are you happy at where you are today?
It's an unfair question, so let it be an answer!

You love being a good and loving mom or dad to your kids, then take it up a notch! Your kids will love you forever.

The same goes with your everyday life! You have to love yourselves in order to be loved and happy.

6. How much could you have?
I suppose in this case there is no such things on having things too much or too little, but it's more on how badly you really need it.

I'd like to have lots of money, no denying that, but the question is that how much are we willing to work for it?

7. What motivates you?
What motivates you? It's an answer you have to find out for yourself.

There are so many things that can make everyone happy, but to choose one of the many may be the hardest part. It's unlike the case where you can't have some of your favorite food in a buffet and forget about it.

To find what motivates us, we just need to try and test it piece by piece, day by day...

8. What Really Makes You Tick?
So? What really makes you tick?

It can be anything that we always want to be. However, to achieve something that seem much difficult and bigger than us might resulting us giving up before we even start the journey.

Hence, we need to keep learning and growin ourselves to be bigger than our challenges. Then, whatever that we want to attain will appeared to be something much achieveable before we given up.

Last but not least, always remember that self improvement is not just about the physical or philosophical change that we have to undergo but it's something that we really want...

By improving and growing ourselves day by day, the big challenge will appear relatively smaller and everything will be possible at the end of the tunnel.
