NCG, Inc.
We're all about developing good habits now that will help you out later in life whether it is personally or professionally. So, we thought that sharing this article with the people at NCG, Inc. today while we're working on Vision Boards would be a great tool!
1. Innovation & Creativity
Start now to grow your commitment to actively and consciously create your future instead of waiting for good things to happen. Shift your energy into creating a better reality.
2. Constant Improvement
Just as you have to prioritize saving for long-term financial goals, you have to prioritize your personal development and self-improvement if you want to become the kind of person who can face any challenge.
3. Exercise
Whatever your age now, in five years, you'll be five years older. Where do you want to be? Stuck sitting at a desk and lazy? Or, living your life in an active way and exercising regularly so that you have a happy and healthy five years after that!
4. Time Stewardship
What could you accomplish with a gift of 900 hours? Just 30 minutes of wasted time per day and that's what you'll have in 5 years.
5. Journaling
The habit of reflective writing, even a short daily passage, can make you more productive. It helps clear out the cobwebs and gives you a record to look back on.
6. Searching
It's easy to settle for what is in front of you, but the best leaders see opportunities where others see nothing. Begin now to discipline yourself to seek out answers, do research, look out for solutions rather than problems.
7. Meditation
Learn how to slow down your internal pace. It will be a vital skill in a world where things move faster than they do now.
8. Trust
It's one of the most powerful forces you can develop. When you live in trust and trustworthiness, you build the reputation that will serve you well in years to come.
9. Reading
Avid readers have a wealth of knowledge and experiences. Ti's easy to let the reading habit fall off when life gets busy, but you owe it to your future to make the time.
10. Balance
Priorities tend to become even more challenging as you move through life. Work now to build balance among your competing priorities. Learn what balance feels like and appreciate its gifts so you can maintain it into the future.
11. Choice
If you're at a point in life where it's a temptation to switch to autopilot, keep yourself making intentional choices every day based on your life plan and long-term goals. Don't allow your life to become a clumsy series of unplanned events and outcomes.
12. Flexibility
We've heard it a million times: the only constant is change. That means the most important skill is the ability to embrace change and adapt.
13. Learning
Through reading, through paying attention, through a deliberate effort to stay on top of current developments in your field, community, country, and the world, keep yourself learning every day.
14. Inquiry
Pay attention to what's going on around you and if you don't understand something, ask! Always ask!
15. Humility
A sustainable culture, however large or small the scope, requires leaders who are less interested in how important they become and more interested in the difference they can make.
16. Resilience
Learn to finish what you start. Develop the discipline to stick with what you're doing, even when the excitement and novelty have worn off, even when it's no longer fun.
17. Positivity
Invest in the future with a spirit of making every day a great day. Don't give toxic people or negativity the slightest foothold. Commit to staying positive through the good times and bad.
18. Confidence
If you have tendencies toward people-pleasing and a need for approval? STOP. Start to replace those feelings with confidence. Believe in yourself. You're a valuable asset to carry into the future.
19. Gratitude
Wherever you find yourself in five years, you'll be a happier person if you learn to be thankful for whatever you have.
20. Meaning
Be ready to set new standards, higher than the ones we have today. Those, in turn, will produce greater commitment, more momentum, more promise, and a meaningful journey into the next five years!
