Did you ever think that life could be a whole lot better and more rewarding than what you have right now? Do you want to learn more about the techniques on improving one's self? If yes, then read on.
There are basically 7 easy ways to plan for your self improvement. The following steps will help you achieve self improvement, so be sure to implement them.
Tip # 1 Wake up early in the morning
This first self improvement tip might be very simple and quite obvious to you, but you'll be surprised to know that there are only few who actually spend time and effort to apply it.
Waking up early in the morning is not that hard, if you have discipline in yourself. To be able to do that, you should always have an alarm clock beside you.
You must be fully awake and avoid morning sluggishness. For this purpose, you can exercise, do some stretching and have a cold shower after.
And if you feel that you are fully alert, you can go outside your house and have a view on the sunrise.
This easy but immeasurably fulfilling act will boost spirits and assist you to self improvement.
Tip # 2 Eat your Breakfast
This is enormously the most important thing to do after waking up in the morning. To keep with your self improvement plan, you must have the energy to do the entire task.
You can take bread, cereals, oats, milk or fresh fruits.
Eating breakfast is also a better way to lose weight. Studies prove that those who skip their breakfast have a larger chance of consuming more on the next meal. And, gaining weight won't definitely help in self improvement.
Tip # 3 Always wear a smile
In every place you go, you must always smile and have an eye contact on the people you meet. Curving your lips a bit is just simple. It is worth the smile, each person will give back to you.
This will help boost your spirit, especially when you see more people smile at you.
Tip # 4 Do not delay any of your duties and appointments
The greater you put something else off, the more these things pile up. And these will only pressure you.
The best thing to do is to set a schedule of those important things you need to do. This would also save some of your time.
Tip #5 Have a note or to-do- list
Have a summary of the things you need to do. You can do these after you go to bed, to prepare yourself.
A to-do-list should contain those important and urgent things you need to accomplish by the end of the day.
It will also serve as a reminder to those vital things you usually forget.
Tip # 6 Forgive and Forget
This is definitely one of the best things, we as human could ever done.
If you had a fight with your friend or relatives, and you know that you hurt their feelings, make apology.
Saying "I'm sorry" is the hardest thing to do, but it's the best cure for the person you hurt.
You can show your sincerity by talking to that person. You'll feel a lot better when you know that everything is fine now.
This is by far the most important step in self improvement.
Tip # 7 Take the effort to do something good and kind
Even in an ordinary day, you could buy your friends a flower or a card, just to let them know how special they are.
Don't be shy to let your family, friends and relatives know that you value and love them.
Help teach your niece or neighbor how to write or read, and do "grown up" things.
These are the simple yet valuable things you could do to gain self improvement.
Just remember that self improvement can be greatly achieved by following these simple steps. But this doesn't end here. Life is a work in progress. You can always do more and explore more along the way.

Anythign wrong with thi picture?
By: Mik | 01-09-2008
okay, i've been feeling really weird, but i dont think i'm sick. and i've no idea what to do. i have this strange twitching thing where its like uncontrolable twitching only it is really beginning to bug me. it is happening a lot more since my wonderful girlfriend told me out of the blue she is bisexual. i wouldnt call myself homophobic or anyhting but its the last thing i expected and really blew me back. i've been feeling really crappy last few months but its suddenly intensified and i find myself completely unmotivated to do anything. more now than usual. i'm quite amazed that i bought myself to write this letter. i cant think of anything else to say but sometimes, when i am completely alone, not not alone, i infrequently hear someone call out my name really loudly. scares the hell out of me when i'm on my own and i know noones there. it might only happen once a month or so but its been happening for a few months now. i'm done. thanks.
Tibetan Self-Help Refugee Center in Darjeeling
By: Amy | 25-08-2008
We had a very moving visit to the Tibetan Refugee Self Help Centre in January 2008. We were impressed with the effort to provide training, income and care for these fine people - who were most gracious to us. At the time, we ordered a beautiful carpet - for delivery later this year. I've been trying to reach the office to discuss the order and to change the shipping address. Unfortunately, I have not been able to reach anyone by phone. The numbers on the receipt have all been disconnected. Has something happened to the center? I certainly hope not. Does anyone have current contact information? Thank you.

why am i such a loner. is perfring to be alone bad? i love being around people. but im shy so i barely say anything. which is weird because im usually really hyper and goofy. at least with my family. but i care too much about wat people think of me. so i get nervous and have like a social anxiety attack, so i like to be by myself. plus when ever my friends text or call me, i never answer, unless its my boyfreind. im in clubs and stuff but its hard to participate. im used to not getting my voice heard so i jus like to listen to others opinions. ive never really been much of a talker i guess. im not sure what im asking. lol. umm maybe jus some feed back/
