Forget “New Year, New Me”: Here’s How You Can Actually Work On Self-Improvement In A Sustainable Way

Primarily, you may opt to seek out therapy this year to work on unpacking your trauma and further understanding yourself and your personal situation. Or, if you would like to reflect in a solo setting, you can start by journaling– asking yourself powerful questions and surprising yourself with the answers.

For instance, how do you want to be remembered by your community? What would you tell your younger self if you had the chance? How do you want to help loved ones?

Finally, you can simply lean on others in your circle to learn more about yourself. We are always our own worst critics. So, seeking feedback from those who know you best can help you really understand what needs work. Maybe you are self-deprecating, or perhaps you don’t take enough time to slow down and relax.

Whatever your improvement areas may be, being intentional and taking the time to have these conversations will help you realize them.

Then, the most important step for all of these self-improvement options is to take them slowly. Just like babies, we adults also have to crawl before we can run toward “total zen and self-awareness.” So, give yourself grace, appreciate the incremental efforts you are making, and simply scroll past those “new year, new me” posts on social media. We all know that they are bullsh*t anyway.
