• 1. Have a good lifestyle!
• First things first. Having a good lifestyle is
  the first step towards bringing out the best
  version of yourself into the light. A good
  lifestyle is one that is filled with activities,
  which leaves you feeling happy, fulfilled and
  healthy. Lifestyle is the way in which one
  approaches their day to day living. It should
  begin with a healthy morning routine the way
  you start your mornings truly sets the tone for
  your entire day.
• Design a morning routine that makes you want to
  spring up from your bed and kick-start your day.
  Stay away from your computer screens and
  smartphone screens for at least 30 to 40 minutes
  after waking up. Your emails can wait. All those
  Instagram DMs and post engagements? Yes, they can
  wait too. Studies have revealed that looking at
  screens first thing in the morning and loading
  your head with all the unnecessary information
  spoils the morning glory and thus deteriorates
  the overall quality of your day.

• Embrace a simpler way of living and youll live
  way more fulfilled and happier. Eat right, live
  right. Eating fresh fruits and vegetables in the
  morning too is a great way of jumpstarting your
  day. Try to stay away from the oily and deep
  fried diet, and embrace greener and minimalistic
  way of living.
• 2. Take care of your mental health
• So much is being talked about mental health and
  yet, it is unfortunate that most people still
  dont realize the impact of ones mental health
  on their life. Mental health is a tricky subject
  that unfortunately were not taught about in
  schools or colleges. It is something well have
  to learn on our own through our experiences in
  the school of life.
• Prioritize your mental health. Stop being okay
  with not being okay. Stop ambushing your
  feelings. If youre having a tiff with a dear one
  and are trying to hide away all your feelings,
  locking it in a place you never plan to unlock
  you are doing so much harm to your mental
  well-being. Express how you feel. Bottled up
  feelings can only do more harm. Take the help of
  professionals if youre having trouble expressing
  how you feel.

• Be honest and true to yourself and to those
  around you. Therefore take care of your mental
  health, as its vital to be your best self.
• 3. Move on from everything and everyone who is
  holding you back from attaining the best version
  of yourself!
• The world is filled with all kinds of people and
  although we cannot choose who comes into our
  lives, we can always choose who stays in it. If
  you are surrounded by people who do not motivate,
  inspire and excite you then change your company.,
  If you are around people who are condescending
  and dampen your spirits, you need to move on from
  them.
• Life is short and you shouldnt be wasted in
  entertaining relationships and people that do not
  nurture you. Healthy people and healthy
  relationships should leave you feeling energized
  with positive. They should make you feel loved
  and accepted. Remove the people who bring your
  energies down from your life and dont let anyone
  come in your way.

• 4. Develop Emotional Sensitivity
• Humans are governed by our emotions largely,
  regardless of how logical we are. Managing
  emotions in the right way are essential in
  determining the quality of life and in bringing
  the best version of yourself. Develop emotional
  sensitivity towards yourself, and towards your
  family, society and all living being. Treat
  everyone with respect, dont let your words or
  actions hurt anyone intentionally or
  unintentionally just like love begets love, its
  also true that it hurts to hurt. When you hurt
  someone it is reciprocated to you too. Be
  emotionally warm and empathetic towards others
  and their feelings. You dont have to always
  agree but listen out, its an art. Keep your mind
  and judgments open to discussion. Learn to agree
  to disagree. In the process, you will feel
  lighter too.
• Similarly, be sensitive to yourself. Be mindful
  of your emotions and observe closely how these
  emotions are influencing your life. Make the
  necessary changes in your lifestyle and social
  circle and choose only what is best for you!
  Thats what is going to help in carving out the
  best version of yourself.

• 5. Practice Self-love
• This one cannot be stressed enough. In a world
  where were all looking for love, acceptance and
  care, practicing self-love can come a long way!
  Self-love is a process that can leave your soul
  fulfilled and content. Self-love is not a
  destination but a way of life. It cannot be
  attained but practiced. It might take you time
  and conscious efforts to practice self-love, but
  once youve learned how to do it, theres nothing
  like it! You will stop looking for the
  unnecessary validation from people around you,
  you will stop waiting for someone to make you
  feel happy, you will become self-sufficient and
  that will leave you feeling empowered,
  enlightened and happy!
• Self-love doesnt mean despising others. In fact,
  it is the other way around. Self-love is not just
  loving yourself as a whole your body, mind, and
  soul, but also loving others with kindness and
  care. Practicing self-love can take you many
  steps closer to becoming the beautiful and
  blissful best version of yourself!

• 6. Be socially sensitive and responsible
• Being the best version of you should not stop at
  loving yourself and your family and designing a
  great lifestyle. Thats the beginning. The next
  part is to contribute and give it back to
  society. Being socially sensitive and responsible
  will not only help the society at large but it
  will also leave you feeling happy and fulfilled.
  Begin by doing small things in your neighborhood
  or at your workplace.
• Be kind and mindful of your actions. Water those
  dried out plants in the neighborhood. Volunteer
  for that community project your society is taking
  up. Be a part of that marathon happening at your
  workplace and encourage others to be a part of it
  too. Work towards a cause you strongly believe
  in. This gives your life a deeper sense of
  purpose that you may not achieve by simply going
  about your life just the way most other people
  around you are!

• 7. Make peace with your past Bury the past
  glories and part ways with the demons of your
  past!
• Last but not least on the list in order to
  bring the best version of yourself to light, you
  have to let go of your past! If you want your
  best to take over, you have to let the worst part
  ways. We all have things from our past which we
  havent made peace with.
• Moving on from there is one thing. Making peace
  with them is another. Making peace does not mean
  you validate or glorify what happened. It only
  means that you acknowledge that it has happened
  to you in the past, and you want to now move on
  towards another brighter tomorrow without
  carrying the baggage of your past.
• This applies to every aspect of your life from
  your professional life to your relationships,
  with your family, friends, partners exes. Dont
  let the ghosts of your past haunt your present
  and the future.

• Make peace with your past with maturity and move
  on to embrace the best things your life is
  throwing at you.
• Becoming a better person and working towards
  being the best version of yourself might be hard
  at the beginning. But once youve understood what
  you really want from your life and embrace a
  simpler way of living thats healthy for you
  physically, emotionally and spiritually you
  will heal all your past wounds and shine from the
  inside. Being the best version of yourself is
  probably the most purposeful and fulfilling
  journey youll ever make and the one that will
  fill your heart with gratitude and happiness!
