What is that one habit that changed your life?

what did you do which changed your personality completely or a lot compared to your past, It could be anything related to your physical looks, mental, personal etc. Feel free to share stories of your friends as well. for me it was gym & meditation. I used to be very skinny and now you won't be able to recognise my past photos.

For years, I was a night owl who struggled with mornings and felt constantly exhausted. On a whim, I decided to try becoming an early riser. The first few weeks were brutal - I felt like a zombie and nearly gave up multiple times. But I stuck with it, gradually adjusting my sleep schedule and creating a morning routine I enjoyed. Six months later, I'm amazed at the difference. It wasn't easy, but the impact on my overall well-being has been profound. What significant lifestyle change have you made that had a profound impact on your well-being? How did you maintain motivation during the transition?

I’ve noticed different people have different ways to approach their financial planning. Hoping to learn from each other and perhaps help others who read as well.

What are the top 3 habits that help you be a better version of yourself?

The obsession I regret the most in my life is the all or nothing behavior. Where, - I'll apply for a job only after knowing everything there is to know for a role. This is why I used to see people with half my knowledge applying and getting jobs and moving ahead in life. I used think it's so unfair that they achieve in all aspects of their life and I in none... - I'll date someone only when I know I am the perfect version that I envision for myself - I'll only take photos when I am in my perfect shape. If I don't have 8 abs, I don't deserve photos! - I'll stop questioning whether I am good enough only when I achieve everything else I am a loser I just was very cruel to myself for my own imperfections! This instilled a fear in me that shattered my spirit, self confidence and self worth. I ended up being afraid to pick anything up. If I couldn't stay course in something and for some reason I wasn't able to do something for a day or 2, my perfectionism mindset said, that's it, I am a failure and I thought, nothing can be done now and gave up This resulted in I procrastinating in things. Why to work hard, I am never gonna make it... I have 100 things to do in life else I am failure but I don't have time to do all that in this lifetime. Perfectionism results in not doing anything! After meeting people, self introspection and podcasts from people, I realised its okay to mess up, its okay to fall down. I should dust myself off and continue! It is so hard now to change yourself after years of disappointment. You need so much positivity and letting go of perfectionism. You need self love and kindness... TLDR - Don't be like an OCD person obsessing over things to go exactly the way they want! Don't reject yourself due to failures/setbacks. Dust yourself off and move ahead! It's okay to be imperfect as long as you promise to be consistent!
