How to increase the standard of your Life

“Fact: - If standard of living is your number one objective, quality of life almost never improves. But if the quality of life is your number one objective, the standard of living invariably improves.” — Zig Ziglar(American author & Motivational Speaker)

In this whole world of chaos, by running after money, achieving high standards in the job, living the luxury life around high tech gadgets, we often forget to increase the standard of our life.

To increase the standard of our life, we need to do very small things in our day to day life, there is nothing we need to exaggerate about it to others or on social media, and ultimately it will be beneficial to you and people around you.

“Satisfying yourself peacefully is the best way to inner happiness”

We can categorize our standard of living in terms of habits:-
• • Happiness habits
• • Health Habits
• • Vitality Habits
• • Income Habits
• • Leisure Habits

I If you can’t force yourself to smile, put a pencil in your mouth and the natural curve of your mouth will help you to engage a smile. Try this for 15 to 20 minutes per day. You’ll be surprised to see, even if you feel depressed, this will brightens your mood.

2.Daily gratitude:
The health benefits of expressing gratitude are many, and some might surprise you, Spend 15 to 30 minutes every single day listing off what you have to be grateful for.

2. Save 20% of your income:
People often think that right now is too early to start saving or investing. Wrong! It is never too early to save a portion of your income, no matter how low or high your income is! At least 20% of your income should be saved, in order to build up your funds for investment opportunities.

Budgeting is the foundation of all your financial planning and success.

“Clean house, clean mind.” Spend a few minutes of your leisure time organizing your surroundings. Take 5 minutes to clean up your desk, bed, or simply to throw things away. You’ll be surprised at how much your quality of life will increase when you get organized.

2. Socialize & Network:
Boost the quality of your life by socializing and networking. It’s been said that 80% of rich people spend 5 hours or more networking, whereas the poor spend 16% of their time doing so. But, networking doesn’t have to be justified solely for business. Take an interest in other peoples’ lives (not personal life) and you’ll be surprised just how much it will come back to you.

3. Do one thing you are afraid of:
Do one thing that you’re afraid of every single day. Take your leisure time for developing this habit. What are you afraid to do? Why are you afraid to do it?
