How to start small to improve yourself

How to start small to improve yourself


Choose One Area

There are many areas in our life we want to improve. You can improve all areas of your life(relationships, health, skills, passion, profession), but please don't try to improve and fix them all at once. Start with one particular area of your life that is really very important to you at your current life situation. If you are confused where to start, your health area is the first one you must start with. Now, when you know what life area of yours, you need to work on. Start by the smallest thing you can improve in that area. In our case health; you must start with choosing healthy eating habits. I know when it comes to healthy food most of the people have this idea that they have to compromise eating tasteless food over a tasty choice. You can find thousands of healthy and tasty recipes and you can create of your own too. With changed eating habits you can go for some home workout apps that are best to start working out. You can find some people with there healthy and tasty recipes here .

How Much Time To Give In Daily

In order to get results consistency is the most important thing you need. To be consistent you should choose tasks and actions you can take daily for coming 6 months. Here is a list of time frame you should give to a particular area of your life daily in-order to improve.

  • Reading:
    • 10 minutes.
  • Exercise:
    • 20 minutes.
  • Shopping for your healthy food recipes:
    • 30 minutes.
  • Learning a skill:
    • 20-25 minutes.
  • Meditation:
    • 2-5 minutes.
  • Talking to positive people:
    • 6-8 minutes
  • Thinking before taking action:
    • 0.0000 minutes.
  • Doing your hobby/passion:
    • 45-60 minutes.
  • Internet Surfing:
    • 15 minutes.

Get The Specialised Knowledge

Specialised knowledge(term is from a book known as "Think And Grow Rich" ) is the specific information/knowledge you need to put things in action to get your desired result. You can google and know almost about each and everything, but you don't need to know everything to get things started. Hunger for more knowledge before starting things out is a trap many people fall and never ever start things or improvement or a certain action they could have taken and achieved what results they wanted in there relationship, passion, or a personal/professional project they think they will start when they have collected every piece of the pie. One of my teacher used to say "Don't look what you don't know to solve a problem, Look what you have and already know to solve that problem".

Know Your Reason Within

You can be consistent in your effort when you know, why are you starting things out in the first place and how important it is for you to give in daily efforts. Your reason for this change is really very very important. Most of the time people who get great results are those who had a reason or had no choice only to improve. As human beings we are lazy and on the 3rd day you really need a reason why should you do things and continue to give in daily efforts . When you know your why(reason) for starting things out. Make a plan how you gonna achieve what you want.

The Hidden Cost of Leaving Home for the City

People moved from villages and small towns to big cities. They left communities where everyone literally knew everyone. They went from laughing every day over simple things and feeling genuinely happy to chasing bigger goals and celebrating success mostly by showing it off while working harder than ever. Today millions live in large cities yet rarely know their neighbors. This pattern appears across India and in many other countries as well. People arrived from different places seeking money, career growth, recognition, power, or love. Along the way many lost the connections they once had. This is especially true for those who still have parents in their hometown, childhood friends, and places filled with early memories of innocence and belonging. What City Life Offers and What It Quietly Takes Away City life offers comfort, convenience, and opportunity. Yet something essential still feels missing. The quiet peace a true home should provide and the basic sense of safety often remain...

Reimagining the world without capitalism

The Central Pillar The central pillar of the world would be nature, peace and balance. The world will work towards one goal: living in alliance with nature. Government Structure The government structure will change. It will be a decentralised committee of people who are educated and have a track record of no criminal history. Decisions will be made close to the land and the people, not by distant profit-driven institutions. Land and Food Forests Whatever land is empty and where trees or plants can grow, we will plant saplings. The humans who live nearby will take care of those plants every day. These plantings will grow into mixed food forests that give food, shade, medicine and healthy soil, drawing from traditional multi-layer gardens and the wisdom of older civilisations that lived within the limits of the land. Water Systems All the water filters installed in people’s homes will be used less and less because they waste so much water. One big or major water filter will be inst...

Not AI. Not Nukes. A Different Kind of Superpower.

Year 1945. Hiroshima. Nagasaki. 200,000 people lost their lives due to a man made power. That was the price we paid to see what these weapons could do, and the enormous annihilation it could bring to humanity. What if I tell you there is something far far more dangerous than nukes and AI? And it's humans ability to coordinate in masses, believe in the same mission. Germany, 1933. Hitler started giving speeches against Jewish people and followed by massive concentration camps with 6 million people. Living on bread crumbs and watery soup, suffering day and night. What does it tell us? That the most catastrophic force in history isn't a bomb or an algorithm. It's a story. A shared belief. A crowd that moves as one. And what learning we can follow in today's world to be ambitious and just stay where we are, not trying to build a utopia by massacring people. But finding ways to turn the flow of the paths that takes us from worst to current world situations. And t...

To Embrace the AI Shift, First Shift Your Identity

I've been a software engineer for over 4 years now, and the changes AI has brought in that short time have been nothing short of wild to witness. The way I see it, a software engineer's role is shifting from writing code to reviewing it. And honestly, it feels strange. Like we're not really doing anything anymore. That's because most of us grew up with this labourer mindset: we write code, we're good at it, that's the job. That was the identity. Then tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and others came along and most of us quietly had the same realisation: writing code isn't really something we need to do anymore. It reminded me of past transitions — typewriter operators, stenographers, entire professions that slowly became obsolete not because people failed, but because the tools got better. We went from pen and paper to keyboards and monitors. Now we're going from doing things to commanding AI to do them for us. Then tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and ...

How Your Planning Is Working Against You

Solo Warriors When you work alone on something big, you have no team to hand tasks to. Planning and tracking every detail can become a blocker. If you create a long list of perfect tasks for yourself, you often delay the actual work of doing them. The Change of Flow At the start of a project or habit, you do not know much. You learn most of what you need by beginning. A vague, imperfect plan is better than a detailed and perfectly crafted one. The limited context you have at the beginning will almost certainly change and grow as you move forward. So Why Do I Even Plan? Planning still helps. It breaks a large piece of work into smaller steps. This may sound like it contradicts the earlier point, but it does not. Here, “plan” means gathering just enough information to start. Beginning with a simple plan often teaches you more about the subject than endless planning ever could. Make a plan good enough to get you moving. You do not need every detail written down at the start. Which Pl...

Civic Sense: Moving from Survival to Living

Civic sense refers to the unwritten social ethics, responsibilities, and courteous behaviors that individuals practice in public spaces to ensure a harmonious society. It involves respecting public property, obeying rules (such as traffic laws), maintaining cleanliness, and being considerate of others. Essentially, it is "how you behave when no one is watching." Why do many Indians struggle with this? Environment and Upbringing: It often starts at home. If a child suggests separating dry and wet waste, they might be told it is unnecessary because "it leaves the house anyway." Eventually, that child becomes an ambitious adult chasing a career. They may feel that sorting trash or waiting in line is a low priority compared to "more important" tasks that provide a financial cushion. This creates an individual who is always in a hurry, chasing wealth mindlessly. And It really is the reason money leaves them as soon as they get there hands on it. Deep-Rooted P...

Rise Above Temptations with This

Drink the poison. Human temptations Sex Food Spiritual. Higher Purpose. What temptations humans face From the life I have lived so far, sexual temptation stands as the number one temptation any human experiences. On top of that, dating and the difference in options available to a male or female vary drastically. For people born between 1995 and 2000, the gender ratio is 927 to 933 females per 1,000 males. This happened because past Indian preferences for a male child led to abortions of female fetuses. On top of that, many families in India make an issue even if you simply talk to a girl, even when there is nothing between the two of you. This adds further frustration and turns the whole subject into a taboo. 1. Sexual temptation I would say you will not feel tempted if you have a partner who satisfies you sexually. So get married. Do not mess around hurting other people and yourself. 2. Have more To possess. To buy more. Have more. It could be money, sex, or anything else...

The Freedom of Existing: Simple Life Rules from the Movie Hoppers

The Freedom of Existing: Simple Life Rules from the Movie Hoppers I recently saw this movie called Hoppers , and there’s one character who really touched me: the KING Beaver and his pond rules. They’re simple, but they make living easier for all the other animals in his kingdom which is basically just a pond :). I’m dropping the pond rules below, along with what I understood about my own life and what I think about them. The Pond Rules by King Beaver Rule 1: Don’t Be a Stranger He says you should know everyone here and their names. He introduced literally more than 10-20 animals, and it was hilarious the way he did it, introducing all these creatures to the newbie beaver, who was actually a human in a beaver robot with human consciousness wired into it, kind of like the Avatar movie. When I look at life around me and the people in it, I realize this is something I’ve totally overlooked or ignored. I basically don’t introduce myself or interact much with people. In my head I’m...

Tang Ping: The "Lying Flat" Revolution

Reclaiming the Right to Simply Exist In a world that measures human worth by output, hustle, and endless upward climb, a quiet rebellion is spreading. It does not shout. It does not burn flags. It simply lies down. This is Tang Ping — “lying flat.” What began as a Chinese youth protest against the soul-crushing 996 work culture (9 a.m. to 9 p.m., six days a week) has become something far larger: a global permission slip to stop performing, stop over-consuming, and stop sacrificing mental health on the altar of “success.” This “Pond Philosophy” is not a local sentiment. It is the modern expression of an ancient human instinct: the refusal to be consumed by systems that no longer value our humanity. When young people in China first declared they would work only enough to survive, prioritize rest over promotion, and need fewer things so they could need less money, they were not inventing laziness. They were rediscovering the right to exist. The Origin Story: Not Laziness, But Clarity...
