Learn Four Things That Can Make Your Life More Meaningful

When you spend your life by merely to survive, life can start to seem a little empty and pointless to you. 

And this can make you live a boring and uninspiring life. And truth be told,  this is exactly how many of us live our life.

 

We work for eight hours or more a day and then come back home feeling too tired and exhausted to do anything meaningful to change our life for the better by merely sitting down to watch Television, dose off, and waking up the following morning to start all over as we did a day before. WHAT A BORING LIFE TO LIVE!!!.

The same thing repeats itself in your life and the irony part of it all is that you see yourself as living the most enjoyable aspect of life. The most excitement you always look forward to is when will you have a holiday and even once a year is more than enough for you to live a fulfilling life?

Here are four simple changes that can make your life more meaningful. If you really want to live a prosperous life.

Keep On Learning

Constant earning is a great way to give your life more meaning and direction. Ultimately, one of the things that the brain craves most is growth. If it isn’t challenged to learn and grow, then it will shrink and we will become set in our ways. One wise man once said, what you’ll become in the next five years will be determined by the people you mixed up with and the type of book you read. This signifies how important learning is. Take up a book today and learn something new. It will no doubt add more value to your lifestyle. Make it your job to constantly learn new skills and pursuits. That can be related to your career, a hobby, or even a new language!

Improve On Your Relationships

Apart from learning, having a pleasant relationship with your spouse, hubby, friends, co-workers, relatives, and virtually everyone you have one or two things to do together will no doubt add more value and meaning to your life. Relationships are one of the things that we really need to be happy. If you don’t have meaningful relationships, then you’ll have no one to share your experiences, your challenges, your sorrow or happy moments, and your triumphs with.

A truly ‘meaningful’ relationship goes beyond friends of friends that you only ever meet in a group. This is someone that you can have a deep heart-to-heart with and who has a long and storied history with you.

Challenge Yourself To Do New Things

What’s also necessary for life to feel meaningful is a challenge and to some extent, risk.

Have you ever been in a situation that was truly a life and death situation? Or perhaps that put you in a situation where you were close to accomplishing something truly amazing? And you can never forget the moments people are laughing with you as they congratulate you for being a success.

These are the moments when the brain focuses on and engages with the world. These are the moments when we learn and when we realize the worth of what we have. It puts things in perspective and creates stories. Unforgettable stories!!!

Please, Don’t shy away from the things that test your endurance level

 

Travel, Travel, And Travel

Finally, everyone should seek to have some travels in their lives. This doesn’t mean you have to backpack across the desert – but simply being able to experience new sights and new people is important to keep your mind open and your experiences varied. If you don’t have the budget to go away, then come up with an adventure you can enjoy a little closer to your home. Adventure to new places will definitely open your mind and eyes to something you might have thought can never possible to be possible after all.

How Increased Confidence Can Help You Get What You Want

 

Do you know that increased confidence can no doubt give you the utmost opportunity to achieve anything in life? And one important thing to take note of is how to exhibit that confidence when you need it most to achieve your goals in life.

This might sound like the cheesy kind of advice your parents might have given to you and you might even be thinking how possible is it that only confidence can do that much. In this post, I want to let you know it’s really true especially when you truly are yourself and behave confidently.

There are so many ways you can exhibit confidence behavior, such as, if you want to get a date, succeed in your career, want to engage in any business adventure, or need to take any aspect of your life to the next level, then boosting your confidence is one of the best ways to accomplish that.

Here’s the reason why…

What Confidence Really Means

If you have ever met a male or a woman counterpart and he/she just seems to have everything under control, then you might have noticed that they no doubt are usually very confident in what they do. The truth is that the whole reason they appear so successful is that they have taken their confidence level to the extreme. And this will ultimately help them to achieve virtually everything they put their minds to achieving. That’s because confidence sends a powerful signal – it says ‘I consider myself to be a catch and I can do everything’.

Speaking in evolutionary terms, confidence suggests that you are a good potential mate or a superior competitor. Even if you look short, poorly dressed, and unappealing –once you have increased confidence then it will seem as though they are more  knowledgeable than they are and can do everything  you can’t seem to be doing. The assumption is that they must have a reason to be that confident.

And thus we instantly assume that once someone is confident, this person can somehow be our superior: and we must try to be more like them. That’s why we gravitate toward confident people, want to be associated with them or date them and perhaps even want to be liked by them.

To a lot of people having too much confidence is not good as it can lead to unnecessary trouble by calling yourself what you are not or by doing what you are not capable of doing, such people only think that it is just enough to be nice. They assume that by acting nice, they will get people to like them and they can that way overcome their looks, their stature, or their status. And people can like them by being reasonable and cool!

But if you don’t have any self-confidence and you act very nice, then this can actually backfire: it starts to seem as though you want something and that you are being a creep into it.

Conversely, if you act a little less needy, if you can show yourself to be highly capable and impressive, then you can chat with someone in a friendly and open manner. By so doing, then people will be won over by your charm and your appeal. This niceness seems much more genuine because you appear like you don’t need help from everyone.

So guys let me tell you this to your face; stop trying to win the girl by being nice. She will only take you as a member of the pack and not be special. Every woman needs someone to be with them but your demeaning behavior at times may put them off from you. However, when you behave confidently you will be taken seriously and this can help you get what you want without ben let off.

And if you are an employee, stop trying to get the job by being self-deprecating. Try as much as possible to show you are confident in what you have to deliver and know better that the rest

Act like you know your worth and then lay niceness on top of that. That is the winning combination you need to get things done in a way that will favor you!
