How to get better in 2020

Tell your story. But do it right

A lot depends on how we talk about the events of our life. Personal narratives reflect our perceptions of our own ups and downs and shape attitudes that further influence well-being. Therefore, it is very important to choose the right words when telling your story. Let's figure out together how to do it better.

End procrastination

Think procrastination only affects productivity? But no. It harms all areas of life - and even health. It makes us less likely to learn, earn less, and struggle to cope with stress. Let's figure out together how to get rid of procrastination once and for all.

Ask yourself five important questions

It so happens that you are unhappy with your life, but do not know what to do about it. It turns out that you can understand yourself with just five questions. They will help you analyze what interferes with action, and what, on the contrary, brings joy - and it will become easier for you to overcome fears and move towards your goal.

Use scientific evidence to cheer you up

Do you have a blues and are tired of empty advice like “eat a chocolate bar” or “go shopping”? We have prepared recommendations based on the results of research and the opinions of scientists. For example, you’ll learn that to cheer you up you need to, oddly enough, listen to sad music. And that going to the museum is also a working option.

Listen to the thinkers

Sometimes it is useful not only to act, but also to reflect. We have collected for you ideas and sayings of philosophers, writers and sages that will help you look at the world in a different way and change something in your life.

Give up unnecessary

We write a lot about what skills and qualities you need to develop in order to be successful. But this is not enough: it is still necessary to get rid of some habits and character traits that inhibit us and prevent us from achieving more. Perfectionism and multitasking are best left in the old year. As well as other habits that we have covered in this article.

Keep your goals secret

They say that if you publicly announce your intentions, it will be easier to implement them. If only because it is always a little embarrassing not to fulfill a promise. In fact, this is not entirely true. We will tell you what public declarations can lead to and how to use this tool correctly.

Explore the experiences of successful people

Everyone is, of course, interested to know how the current billionaires made their money. And many of them are generous in sharing their experiences - we've collected tips for you from Bill Gates, Warren Buffet and Amancio Ortega. Perhaps you can learn something useful from their ideas. But remember that you need to listen to successful people with a great deal of skepticism: they were helped not only by hard work and innovation, but also by luck.

Boost your self-esteem

Self-neglect is likely to prevent you from achieving success, building relationships, and living life to the fullest. We share with you effective exercises that will help you overcome fears, get rid of negative thoughts and feel more confident.
