Life Audit: Secret mantra to a happy life




Have you ever felt a need of detoxifying your mind of all the negative thoughts that have been dwelling for quite some time? Or suddenly you realise that you are caught in a rat race of performing better than others that you don’t have time to wait and self-introspect whether you really want such life or not?

The biggest problem with our generation is that we are so much consumed with our routine life that we are never bothered to ask some serious questions from our soul, do you really want that job? Are you satisfied? Is this what you actually wished for?

Instead of having such thoughts in your mind later in life and then repenting, we have a better solution. How about conducting a life audit by evaluating your abilities, defining your goals and creating a road map to satisfaction and contentment.

Here are simple steps that can help you know yourself better and take wise decisions-

Take out time for yourself:

When life gets too hard on you, always maintain a list of secret shifters that can instantly refresh your mood and cheer you up. It may be your favourite song or movie or anything. Take out time for activities you love, free yourself from everything that is pulling you down – peer pressure, family expectations, competition etc.

Redefine your goals:

While conducting a life audit, it is very necessary to assess your needs and aspirations. Spend some time with yourself, talk to people you admire, research more on what delights you and then define your goals. It is not always important that the difficult paths can only make you successful. Proper planning aligned with dedicated efforts can provide better results.

Start with simple changes:

Take small steps at a time. Analyse your daily activities and list down the things that you want to change in your day. It may be your habit of sleeping till late or may be your eating habits. Start with simple exercises that bring you closer to your future goals. Plan your day in a way that does not stress you and provides maximum returns.

Repeat this process once in a while:

Auditing the ledger of life, to know the true status of your happiness, is important every now and then. You have to keep visiting the targets you set for yourself and figure out if they really matter to you anymore or is it the time to move on in life. Never be rigid with your plans, be open to changes, stay hungry, stay foolish.
So guys good luck with your life audit because life is short, enjoy it to the fullest!!!
