TURN YOUR LIFE AROUND IN 2 MONTHS’ TIME.

You can turn your life around in 2 months’ time, not achieve greatness or your wildest dreams but change how you live and if you think that’s too much of a stretch then maybe you’ve found your first reason…

It takes roughly 59-70 days to form a habit which means all you need to do is make sure you start creating the right ones and in two months’ time you can change your life completely. So the question is, what habits should you develop? Here are two slightly unconventional but highly effective ones.

The first one is the habit of wanting to learn more, and not getting confused with the typical school system learning but instead learning more about what you already have an interest in. You can gamify this to help yourself, treat yourself as a character in a video game and how much you know about things is your level. Do you want to walk around for the rest of your life at level 1? Not being able to do certain things or experience certain areas of life because you haven’t gone out of your way to educate yourself?

Instead of ‘having’ to educate yourself treat it as you ‘get’ to educate yourself on what you like, this is a privilege that many others don’t get. If you don’t think you have any interests, analyse what you want your future life to look like and what’s included in it. Do you have lots of money? Multiple properties? Are you an athlete? Whatever it is, start reverse engineering it and figuring out where you can make a start.

The next habit is to try and make every decision that you make benefit you in multiple ways. This is a fantastic habit to develop because it allows you to continue to put in the same amount of effort but double the output that you revive and it’s also extremely time efficient in terms of productivity standards.

An example of this is that if you tend to journal every day, meditate and go on morning walks which can take up hours of your time try to just go on thoughtful morning walks where you can get the same effects of meditating and journaling but in a more efficient manner.

Or if you are a public speaker and you have been invited to an event, how could you maximise the output of that situation whilst putting in the same input (speaking on a stage)? You could either just speak on the stage or you could also get your friend to record you, you can take that recording, post it as a youtube video, clip it up into TikTok videos and also extract quotes from it for Twitter.

This way you have utilised the same input but quadrupled the output.

ACTIONABLE NEXT STEPS:

Take these on board and start implementing them into your own life. Make it part of your daily routine to learn. Block out some time and pick up a book, watch some educational youtube videos and when planning out your day, figure out how you can increase your output whilst still putting in the same input.

TAKEAWAYS:

Develop these two habits to turn your life around:

• The habit to learn more.

• The habit to make every decision benefit you in multiple ways.
