You know you are capable of great things. You know that under the right circumstances you could go far.

You believe in yourself and what you can accomplish.

You may have a picture of yourself in your mind’s eye: a vision of making your dreams a reality, of achieving the success you know could be yours.

Now all you need to do is become that version of yourself. You need to become your BEST YOU.

How do you begin transforming into the person you believe you should be?

It’s time to stretch yourself; to grow and allow yourself to develop. Think of this as a journey of self discovery.

Here are five powerful tips…

…to get you on the road to becoming the person you were meant to be.

1. Try new things

You can’t let yourself become complacent. Fear of change is your enemy.

Kick things up a notch by regularly trying something new and unexpected.

Is there something you have always wanted to try, but never made time for? It could be something adventurous, like scuba diving or skydiving.

Or maybe you have always wanted to tap into your artistic side and learn to paint or take a photography class. Whatever it is, it’s important that you make time to explore a new activity, skill or craft.

Surprise yourself by pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone. Doing so will give your ingenuity and innovative side a boost.

Plus, you will have discovered something new about yourself — perhaps a hidden talent or an ability to learn something you didn’t think you were capable of.

2. Pursue your dreams

What is your ultimate dream; the thing you want more than anything? What is your true calling in life?

These are some of the important questions to ask yourself in order to unlock who you are meant to be.

Pursuing your dreams will give you the drive and determination to see your goals through, and will spark your creativity and inspiration. Plus, you will be doing something that makes you happy and holds your interest.

3. Sustain your motivation

We all have days when we wake up just not feeling it. Those days when our brains won’t get going. But despite being low on energy or inspiration, you have to find a way to keep moving forward.

Remember, progress is incremental. You have to find ways to keep that fire in your belly; to keep nurturing that deep desire to achieve.

Write down your goals and post them where you will see them every day, so you are constantly reminded of your purpose.

4. Hone good habits

People are naturally creatures of habit. These can be good habits that we have worked hard to instill, or bad habits that suck away our determination and leave us short of our goals.

Building solid, reliable work habits will keep you taking baby steps in the right direction and sustain you through slow periods.

5. Focus on self-care

If you want to operate at peak performance, you must incorporate self-care into your daily routine.

Are you keeping your body structures strong with proper muscle building and maintaining exercise?

Are you eating nutritious meals and getting plenty of sleep?

It’s going to be hard to feel your best if you are run ragged and are stuffing your belly with junk food.

When we challenge our body physically, it releases the endorphins that build up with stress.

In many ways, your body is like a machine. It needs to be tuned and tended to, or something is going to give. If you don’t care for your body, you will burn out easier. You can also feel overwhelmed with unmanaged stress and get sick easier.

Don’t forget that your mental well-being also needs to be nurtured and this is accomplished with your proper exercise program and helps yea deal to stress before it deals to you!

Its also important to focus on the things you are grateful for. Taking time to replenish your mind and spirit is paramount to sustaining mental health and giving you a sense of well-being.
