How can I become a better person?

I am quite sure you all also think the same, as I do. I always wanted to improve myself. I always wanted to be a bit better person than what I am today.

We all do think about few things which can make us a better person, but do we know a few of them?

Well, if you ask me I can say that we all know about all those things which can make us a better person, but in fact despite knowing them we somehow ignore them implementing in our daily life.

Is not it the reality?

Don’t we ignore someone who met with an accident, while we were traveling to our office?

Why don’t we feel anything bad after seeing infants along with beggars on the street?

Why do we ignore the person who had a pickpocket and we ignored them in a rush to meet someone near and dear?

Don’t you think we can have so many examples which actually tell that we human beings are becoming more and more insensitive now?

Is it a good sign for humanity?

Obviously no.

We strongly need to become a good and better person. I do support the opinion in which someone says that our life is ours, why will we think about others in this busy life?

Doesn’t it sound as a Selfish Approach?

Yes, it does sounds as a selfish approach. We need to change this approach.

 10 Things which can make you a Better Person!

Precisely you might say that these are entirely my personal opinion, but still you can count on these 10 things which can make you a better person:

 Stay Away from Negative People

As I usually say this, but it is a fact that for being a better person or enhance ourselves as a better person, we need to maintain a safe distance from negative people.

This point is so important in my opinion that I already have written two blogs on this, you can check my recent blog on how to deal with negative people. This blog also has the link of the old blog post of mine on the same topic. I also have emphasized the importance of positive approach in our life (like in this blog post: how to improve your inner strength) in many blog posts of mine, and I do believe that you cannot have positive thoughts if you are being surrounded by negative people only.

If you are in a relationship or searching for it, then also you need to be cautious enough that you should not select a negative person as your future spouse. It will become the toughest decision of your life.

So those were some points for those who have a few negative friends and people surrounding, but what would be the case for those who themselves are having the negative thinking?

Those who are having negative thinking can also become positive in nature with the help of following things:

 Motivation

Always try to motivate yourself to become positive in nature. Try to ignore all those things which can bring this negative tendency in yours.

 Meditation

Try to meditate so that you can concentrate well and increase the positive energy hidden inside you. Meditation such as Yoga is really good for all these.

 Have Positive Friends

I always have focused on having friends with positive nature in our life. They are the one who will definitely help you to become positive in your own life.

But there is a hidden point in this.

As I already mentioned that stay away from negative people in your life, so those who have this positive attitude will obviously not make you friend as you are a negative thinking. So, here comes the role of motivation and meditation which can help you to become a bit positive, so that those positive friends will accept you in their life and then will further motivate you to become positive.

See negative thinking is something which can come into anyone’s mind. It is not possible that a guy who has all the positive attitude and positive thinking will never thought in negative manner. They will also look negative sometimes.

It all depends on conditions.

So let’s forget about all those things and move ahead.

 Reading

Try to read as much as possible. Try to read motivational stories, self improvement stuffs, etc. it will definitely help you to become positive in life.

 Be Kind & Respect Others

Coming back to our original discussion of things which can make you a better person, always try to be kind to anyone and respect others. After all we all are human beings, so there is no point in thinking yourself superior to anyone else.

Just because of the color or race don’t show disrespect to anyone.

Be kind to others and start respecting others. This way if you are into a relationship, your better half will also start respecting you.

 Encourage Others

No matter what, but always tries to encourage others. Those who are good in nature will always encourage others to become a good human being.

 Accept People in their Own Way

Don’t try to change anyone. Accept people in their own way only. After all why will someone change themselves for you?

Obviously no one will change themselves for you; rather it is you who can change yourself only. So try to accept people with all their virtue and faults.

 Forgive People

Generate this tendency of forgiving others for whatever they did. Obviously I am not saying to forgive someone who wants to kill you; obviously no one will try to do so.

There is no point in thinking about taking revenge from someone for some work which they knowingly or unknowingly did. Let’s forgive them and see how much happiness it will bring in your life.

 Do Help Others & Be Loyal

Undoubtedly helping others is one of the finest virtues of a good person, and if you really want to improve yourself as a human being, then you should always be ready to help others. Not only this much is enough, you also need to be loyal in all the aspects of your life.

Being said to be loyal I am not indicating only to be loyal with your spouse, but you should with anyone in your life. Don’t ever do wrong promises to anyone.

 Stay in Touch

In this busy world it is really hard to stay in touch with people who really matters to you. But frankly, it is the time when staying in touch with near and dear one is quite easy. You can use FB, Twitter, What’s App, etc. to stay in touch.

But my point was to stay in touch in a real way with people who really matters a lot to you.

You will be surprised to hear this, but I do suggest some people who discuss about their friends, to make a list of people who matters a lot to them. I always do guide them to stay in touch with those people, as those were someone who always wanted to make you happy. Unfortunately I don’t ever be listed in any of the lists which I prepare for them 😉

So the idea is that if you really want to feel good, you should also need to identify friends, relatives, etc. who really matters a lot in your life and then try to stay in real touch with them, not to contact them through virtual world.

 Keep Promises & Accept Truths

As I said above that never ever make false promises to anyone, so this point is the outcome of the same. Try to keep all the promises which you made and you also have the ability to accept truths in your life.

 Give Gifts

I hope you won’t take it as if I am telling you to bribe others.

Giving gifts to your near and dear ones, no matter how costly it is or how big it is, is an art to win hearts. Don’t think about purchasing a costly gift, but you can see the smile on the face of your near and dear one with a rose as well.

 Listen More

Now this is the last but not the least thing which can make you a better person. Try not to speak all the time, but also try to listen what others want to say you.

Accept your own drawbacks, if someone is pointing you.

I guess those were the 10 things which can make you a better person. We all do want to conquer the heart of our near and dear one, and I suppose those were the ten things which can always make you better in the eyes of them.

I suppose you might also have some more ways or things to do so. Why not please do share the same with us so that we all can be able to know them as well. Please don’t hesitate in sharing your opinion about this blog post, or whatever new things which you think suitable for this, in the form of comments.
