The Will to Improve

In order to improve you have to first acknowledge that you need to. Don't be afraid to work on your weaknesses with those who have strengths in such areas. You will be surprised when you realize that some of the most successful people are where they are because they turned their weaknesses into strengths. You just have to be wise so that you know the difference between persistence and moving on when it comes to sharpening your skill in a certain area.

Seeking Perfection

When people act weird don't ignore it. People have reasons as to why they act the way they do. It's no use being in denial. At the end of the day, we have to accept the fact that no one including ourselves is perfect and work on improving ourselves and others.

Learning to Chill

Have you ever realized that you were blindly doing something? How did you feel in that moment? You might have told yourself that you could have done better. That is true but it is also true that no matter how much effort you put there is always more that you could be doing....so just chill.

Getting Through the Meat and Bones of Critiques

One of the marks of excellence is using criticism constructively. Looking at things from another's viewpoint is a great way to improve whatever product you have which could be yourself, a business, a project, and the list goes on and on. Sometimes people give their critique in a manner that it is so painful and even insulting sometimes. The best thing you can do is cancel out any profanity they used in getting their points across. Those are bones. Leave the bones alone as they say and take the meat. There is some value if you look hard enough.

Improving Yourself Inspite of Self-Imposed Obstacles

We sometimes block our own success. It is not about him or her or them. It is about me and you. We are sometimes our worst life coaches. Stop allowing yourself to remain in one spot. You know that you got to now get up. There is always something to improve on or even learn to do. Don't get content...Perfect your skills each and everyday. Don't say you got it all. You can learn to be a better:

• Student

• Public speaker

• Driver

• Spouse

• Friend

And the list goes on and on. Expect nothing but the very best from yourself.
