9 little tricks to be a better person every day
Want to upgrade to You 2.0?
That makes the two of us. No, scratch that. That makes ALL of us.
Whether we admit it or not, we’re all working on becoming the best versions of ourselves.
But let me ask you, how do you define a better you? Is it having a healthier body? Is it advancing in your career? Is it having more meaningful relationships? Or is it perhaps a larger net worth?
Only you can answer that question. Better is subjective, so what I’m improving now may be totally different from yours, and the same goes for the rest of the world.
But then again, there’s a common denominator: Succeeding in becoming a better person requires tiny daily changes. I can give you 101 ways to be a better person, but I’ll narrow it down to 9 actionable steps we all can do every day.
Check out these 9 little tricks to be a better person every day:
1. Reboot.

So let’s apply that to our everyday lives:
When we start our day with a reboot, we wipe out all the excess negative energy stored from the previous day. Rebooting as we wake up allows us to delete yesterday’s mistakes or setbacks that prevented us from achieving our better selves.
When we reboot, we start our day with a clean slate. A fresh start that boosts our motivation to work towards achieving our goals. A new beginning that will open our eyes to new opportunities we might have missed.
2. Practice mirror work.
What is mirror work?
It is an affirmation and reflection method popularised by Louise Hay, founder of the self-improvement empire, Hay House.
It’s done by facing the mirror and talking to your reflection like your own cheerleader. This technique is rooted in the idea that repeating positive affirmations boosts self-confidence and strengthens your trust in yourself and life. Read More…
