Personal Transformation Mastery

Want to become the best version of you? Or at least to begin taking the necessary steps to start being more productive, more creative, happier and more confident?

There are plenty of ways to do that and some of them involve taking a deep look at yourself and discovering who you really are and what you really want from life.

But while this can work, there are also some much more practical and straightforward strategies you can use to keep growing and improving yourself. In this short report, we’ll be looking at the five things you should do if you want to keep yourself growing and improving. These are concrete steps that anyone can take but which can’t help to improve and develop you over time.

Learn

One of the most important things you can do to keep developing and growing yourself is to learn. That means that you should keep on taking on new challenges, discovering new things and developing new skills and abilities.

Maybe you attend an electronic engineering seminar. Maybe you go to dance classes. Maybe you teach yourself to use a new piece of software to further your career. Or maybe you learn a new language.

Whichever of these options you choose, continuing to learn will help to make your brain more plastic as it produces neurotransmitters associated with the growth and development of neurons and neuronal connections. You’ll produce more brain derived neurotrophic factor, more dopamine, more norepinephrine and more. And as a result, you will find all new topics easier to learn and your brain will be more similar to that of a much younger person’s.

The same is true for the brain as is for the body: you can either grow and improve, or you can atrophy and deteriorate. The body is always changing: it is simply up to you whether it changes for the better or for the worse.

And if nothing else, continually learning new things will give you a broader mind, a wider range of experiences and skills to draw upon and a ton of useful knowledge. And the new ideas and concepts that you can come up with as a result of combining experience from many different fields is almost limitless. This is how you become a ‘polymath’ like Da Vinci, Newton or Elon Musk.

Make time to learn!

Travel

Travelling is incredibly important not only for your happiness and your sense of accomplishment and purpose, but also to make you a more rounded and even a more decent human being.

Did you know that people are rated as more tolerant and understanding if they went to college? This has nothing to do with education or background – it is simply that people who have moved away from home have less narrow views and a better understanding of the wider world.

And this is even truer for those people who travel far and wide and mingle with other cultures and see other places for themselves. This broadens your mind and gives you a ‘bigger picture’ view. It can also help you to put things in perspective a little and to realize that many of your troubles and your concerns are actually somewhat petty in comparison to the hunger and poverty you encounter in other parts of the world.

People who have travelled and had adventures will be naturally more interesting to talk to because they’ll have such a breadth of experiences to share and because they’ll appear more worldly and more knowledgeable. But it’s simply rubbing shoulders with people from different cultures and experiencing unique locales that will truly develop you.

To get a little deeper in our understanding of how travelling can change and improve a person, it pays to consider the philosophies of Georg Hegel. Hegel believed that it was crucial that we challenge our ideas in order to develop them and to gain a more accurate world view. He described this as requiring a specific process. The ‘thesis’ is the original idea that you have. The antithesis is the opposite view. And the synthesis is the resultant idea that takes lessons from both views.

In order for us to be as knowledgeable and as effective as possible, it is crucial that we challenge our existing ideas and develop them by incorporating other ideas.

Refusal to do this otherwise will eventually result in our own demise, as we become more and more attached to defunct and irrelevant concepts.

The Empowered Life

We all want to be the best version of ourselves and we all want to achieve everything we can. And yet many people feel as though they are squandering their full potential and not living their life to the fullest.

The question is how you can go about changing that. How can you unlock your full potential and your success and embrace the best version of yourself?

How can you follow in the footsteps of the world’s most successful people and the most confident, charismatic and happy?

There are plenty of things you need to do if you want to be the best version of yourself and probably far more than we can list here.

Nevertheless, this report is going to share 7 of the most effective timeless principles that you can follow. These are the seven strategies that are promoted time and time again online and that all the most successful people recommend. Some are simple and basic and others are profound and deep. Some will be right for you, others will not.

But if you can adopt at least some of these strategies into your own life then you should find that you become a more empowered and successful individual. Of course if you find this helpful and interesting then you must check out the full ebook: The Empowered Life which contains many more similar tips and advice in a far more in-depth format!

1. Know Your Purpose

The most important principle of all if you want to truly unlock your potential is to know your purpose and to have goals and to focus on growth.
Maslow’s hierarchy of needs tells us that ‘self actualization’ is right at the top of the things humans need to be content. At the bottom are our physiological needs like food, water and shelter. In the middle are things like love and self esteem. But at the top is actualization – the feeling of having purpose, growth and forward momentum.

This is what so many of us lack and it is why so many of us are listless, directionless and depressed.

Your purpose doesn’t have to be related to your career. It doesn’t have to be something that other people will understand or even respect. All it has to be is something that truly drives you and that really matters to you.

When you focus on this, you’ll find that you become much more attractive to others as they see that you are truly passionate and driven – as they see that you are moved and inspired by what you’re saying. You will gesticulate more, be more animated and be more charismatic.

Likewise, when you know your purpose, you will find that you worry less about little petty things that really don’t matter. And decisions will be easier to make because you can ask yourself – ‘does this help [you] move towards your goal?’.

2. Get Sleep Right

Successful people recognize the importance of sleep and the importance of waking up in the right way.

Getting enough sleep will ensure that you wake up feeling more recharged and with greater focus, greater concentration and a better mood. It will help you to stave off illness and increase your physical health over time – you’ll even build more muscle and become more athletic (in the short term and the long).

Okay, but how do you go about getting sleep right? What’s the key to better sleep?

The first thing you need to do is to try and go to bed at a more consistent time. This makes a massive difference because it allows the body to get into a rhythm. And you know what? You mustn’t break this routine too much at the weekend.

Another tip is to avoid using your phone just before bed. Try to take half an hour as a break away from screens and technology and your body will be more ‘ready’ for sleep.

If you still struggle then a great little hack is to take a magnesium threonate supplement. This is a natural mineral that encourages sleep, relaxes the muscles and promotes brain plasticity so that you will learn better and your brain will grow new connections.

3. Practice No Fap

This is a controversial thing to include on this list but let’s be honest: if you are going to become the most successful and effective version of you then that does not involve spending hours each week watching seedy videos of women and pleasuring yourself.

Not only is this a huge waste of time, it is also simply addictive and can badly mess up your dopaminergic system. Dopamine is produced during goal oriented behavior and it will reinforce whatever behavior you engage in. Porn creates a huge release of dopamine that can only otherwise be achieved through drug use. As such, it can damage the brain’s ability to stay motivated and focused and leave you with impaired motivation.

But more than anything else, no fap trains you in discipline. If you can break this one extreme habit, then you are demonstrating an ability to do nearly anything. Imagine what other goals you could accomplish. Imagine what else you could achieve! Perhaps it is for these reasons that many people on the No Fap Reddit report that they feel more alive, more energetic and much more driven once they practice no fap – and that they accomplish much more as a result.

Introduction

Procrastination is something that we all deal with at some point or another. We may find that there is some kind of project that we don’t want to deal with or we may just feel we have time to do it later. Of course, things always sneak up on us sooner rather than later, and we scramble around to get it all done. This is a temporary thing for most people, something they do on occasion and it isn’t a habit. On the other hand, procrastinators will often deal with these issues each time that they have something to do.

This guidebook is going to spend some time looking at what a procrastinator is and some of the main signs to look for when it comes to determining if you or someone else is considered a procrastinator. We will discuss some things such as avoiding unpleasant tasks, making excuses or just giving up because we feel we are not up to the challenge. These are all things that will make the procrastinator put off their work, rather than trying to get it done.

When you are interested in finding out what a procrastinator is like and learning about some of the signs that come with procrastination to see if they are ones that you are dealing with, make sure to check out this guidebook to get started!

What is a Procrastinator?

First, we need to take some time to talk about what a procrastinator is. This is basically a person who likes to put things off or who delays doing the work because they feel like they can’t handle it or they just aren’t interested in the work. This can include things like chores, work, and other actions that should be done in a timely manner. If you don’t get to work on cleaning the house because you have to take the kids to soccer practice, that is not procrastination. But if you just sit down and watch television instead of doing the housework, that is procrastination.

All of us have times when we are going to suffer from procrastination in our lives. There are things that we don’t always want to do, and we will put them off as much as possible. But this s usually something that is temporary with most people. But when it comes to being a procrastinator, they are going to push the activity off every time that they are supposed to do something, or at least most of the times.

Often these procrastinators are going to wait until the very last minute to get things done. If they are given a big project, it is pretty common to see them working on that late into the night the day before it is due. These are the people who will go out on the day before Christmas to get all of their shopping done. It seems like no matter what they are doing, they are never able to get it done on time and without rushing at the last minute.

These people often have every excuse in the book to avoid doing some of the work that they should. They may not feel like they should have to get the work done, they may say that it doesn’t interest them, and sometimes they will say that the thrill of waiting until the last minute makes it more exciting for them, so they do better work in the long run. But these are all just excuses that are causing them a lot of harm as they push projects further and further behind each day.

There are several types of procrastinators that you may run across in your life. They are all going to share some common traits, but they can be very different in the manner that they procrastinate and even for the reasons. The three types of procrastinators that you may encounter include:

Arousal type: these are also known as the thrill seeker type. These are the people who are able to get some kind of rush for waiting until the very last minute in order to get their project done. They like how it feels to get the work done at the last minute, and they will never work on projects early.

Avoider type: these are the people who are very concerned about how they are going to be seen by others. They are really afraid to fail. So instead of trying and failing, they feel that it is much better to feel incompetent and lazy. This results in them just deciding to not do the work at all.

Decisional type: this type of person is going to be someone who isn’t able to make decisions on things. They will just keep putting things off because then they don’t have to deal with making some of the decisions in their life. These are also the people who are really relieved when responsibilities of making decisions are taken away from them.

Most of the time, someone who is suffering from procrastination has been dealing with this issue for a long time. But even someone who is a chronic procrastinator is able to make some changes to their behavior, although it is going to take a lot of persistence and dedication. Often the desire to put off things and to procrastinate is not going to go away, but the procrastinator is able to learn to change their habits so that they are able to accomplish all of their tasks on time, rather than waiting until the last minute any longer.
