'Basic Self Development - Reflection'

"I felt inadequate, not worthy and afraid. Facing the unknown can become overwhelming and uncomfortable. I was not sure if it was even possible. Every day grew taller in things I never did because of fear."

What if I am not good enough? What if this doesn't work? The fact is, how will you know if you never try? Being brave is the first start to my day. When I am feeling demotivated and depressed, my anxiety tends to kick in. I am back to procrastinating and complete unproductiveness. What do I do?

I felt a sense of worthlessness and pity. I had this idea in my mind that I could never amount to anything. Having all these negative thoughts controlled my life and stopped me from living.

Understanding the effects of not living my best life was the only way to change my habits and thoughts. I knew that the only one responsible for my mess was me. I began to design my guide to living a productive and meaningful life.

"Developing myself has been a great challenge. After trying several methods, reading different books and doing a lot of research to find the best way to improve my life. I learnt the only way to develop yourself is to begin the process."

Every day is a new day. Waking up is like having a reset button. A do-over. A chance to do better. Whether I choose to or not, without believing in myself, it can pretty much end up the same.

"Giving up might be the easiest, but breaking free from the stigma in life is all the more worth it."

My basic self-development plan is truly from self-experience. When I find a way that works for me, I feel confident in encouraging others that it is possible. Designing the life you want can be achieved as long as you are willing to accept the challenge.

Sometimes the simple things can make a big difference in your life. Start with being brave and take the step to live your best life.
