I just got back from the wonderful weekend by the seaside and brought some thoughts back that I’ve wanted to share.

As far as I can remember myself, I was always about self-improvement. To me, if I find an interest in something, I instantly become a Google guru and start digging out every little thing about the topic that I want to know.

Therefore, it is hard for me to understand how others lack that need to grow, to get to know themselves…

Self-improvement is crucial in my life and I wouldn’t be where I am today if it wasn’t for the constant search I take myself through.

The best thing about self-improvement is that it actually leads us to get to know ourselves. By discovering what we like, what interests us, we can discover our inner needs and therefore aim to become the best version we could ever be.

I don’t want to say that we are not ‘good enough’ by default. We all are perfect, we just don’t know it yet.

In my own case, I’ve always had an interest in technology, trying new things and connecting with people. However, without trying to get a bit deeper into these topics, I had no chance of starting an actually profitable online business that combines all of these things.

I’ve started small.

I’ve followed a bunch of online creators that still inspire me to this day. I’ve studied social media like crazy. I took online courses. I wasn’t afraid to connect. I read books. Listened to podcasts. Meditated and even participated in the few runs.

I went all in and it’s paying off already.

Not gonna lie, it can be a  bit overwhelming, but it can also be the best thing you’ll ever discover and here is why:

• Getting out of your comfort zone and getting to know your deepest wishes and secrets can open so many new opportunities for you. You’ll be surprised and grateful at the same time.
• Getting to know yourself gives you better self-esteem. Knowing those answers to all of those whys is empowering.
• You’ll be able to recognize your feelings better no matter how positive or negative they are. This gives you control.
• Your present will become exciting. By discovering who you are at this very moment and feeling proud for the things you do daily can make you appreciate the current moments more.
• It will improve the relationships with others. It’s a well know fact: you can’t love someone if you can’t love yourself.

These are just to mention a few, but boy those are crucial!

My self-improvement story isn’t getting any closer to an end tho. Not at all. I believe we should aim to grow & improve in time. However, I’m here to say loud and proud- I’m happy to take part in this wonderful journey!
