Be Extraordinary: 8 Steps To Living The Life You’ve Always Wanted
Are you bored with your daily routine? Tired of doing the same things, day in and day out?
Are you unhappy with how life is treating for you? And wish that everything could be different?
If your answer is yes, then you have a bad case of
being ordinary.
There is nothing wrong with you, and you’re definitely not the only person who feels this way about themselves.
In fact, most people live exactly this kind of life… but that’s
because they choose to be ordinary.
So why be ordinary when you can be extraordinary, right?
If you want more excitement, more variety, more happiness and more things to happen for you, then just follow this 8-step guide on how to add that “extra” to your ordinary life.
8 Step To Living The Life You’ve Always Wanted
Step 1: Dream big.
Everything starts with a dream. And when you dream, always dream big. Make it so big it scares you. But more than that, believe that you can do it. Own it and tell yourself you deserve it.
When people discourage and tell you that your dream is ridiculously impossible to achieve, remember that fifty years ago, everyone thought it’s ridiculously impossible for man to go to the moon.
Step 2: Set the wheels in motion.
They say the best way to make your dreams come true is to wake up. This simply means you have to stop wishing and start acting.
Learn the essential tools, practice and hone your craft. Stop procrastinating, don’t waste your time with the unnecessary. Remember that the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
Step 3: Keep moving forward.
In pursuing a dream, there is always a point when everything will seem hopeless; a time when you start to question and doubt yourself. “
This is not going to happen. I can’t do it,” you might say.
This is the time when most people quit, and go back to their ordinary lives. For you, it’s simply a time to rest.
Stop and look back at how far away you’ve already gone, don’t you want to see what lies ahead for you next? Yes, you do, that’s why you’ll keep on moving forward.
Step 4: Stretch your limits.
The only way to grow is to push yourself beyond your known limits. Train and practice. Face your fears. Break your own records.
Allow yourself to be uncomfortable, don’t be afraid of it. Because every time you do, you are changing your world, you are leaving ordinary, and becoming extraordinary.
Step 5: Make the sacrifice.
We all make sacrifices to get the things we want. You may not always notice it, but it’s how the universe keeps balance. When you begin to understand this law, letting go of things that tether you to an ordinary life becomes easier.
This sacrifice could be your time, your
money, your present comfort levels or current material possessions… sometimes, it could even be your relationships. Be willing to pay the prize, because it’s always worth it in the end.
Step 6: Seize opportunities.
Open your eyes to the new world you’re creating and see that it is a world abundant of opportunities. You’ve come a long way, and you’re prepared now, more than ever, to make your dreams a reality.
When you let go of the old and ordinary you, then you’re slowly becoming the new and extraordinary version of yourself. You’ve learned to say “NO” in the previous step, now it’s time to say “YES” to the life you deserve.
Step 7: Build relationships.
The happiest and most successful people on Earth are those who are always surrounded by those who love and support them. End your destructive relationships and build authentic ones that reward you with positivity.
But more than this, be an extraordinary influence to others and help them to be the success that you are becoming. Share your blessings and you’ll see that life will give you more.
Step 8: Be extraordinary.
How do you transform your ordinary life to an extraordinary adventure that everyone would want to live? By living true to your passion and pursuing dreams that ordinary people don’t even dare to dream.
Realize that being extraordinary simply means logging in the extra hours to make it happen. Being extraordinary doesn’t happen overnight, and it’s not an easy ride to take. But it is the only way to live the life you’ve wanted, the life you deserve.
Remember that an extraordinary life is a result of inspiration, determination, focus, patience, sacrifice, optimism, passion and a conscious decision to be more than ordinary.
