Become a self-starter

Psychology Today posted a motivating article called “You 2.0″ that gives tips about how to radically improve your life. The following quote from Psychology Today summarizes the article nicely:

You may feel bound to your timid demeanor, your stifling job, or your rancorous relationship, but there is one realm over which you unquestionably have control: your own head. Herein, five principles of change to turn you into a self-starter.

The article is well worth the read, but if you don’t have time to go through the entire article the main points are listed below.

• Overcome your fear of failure
• Embrace risk and novelty
• Create a new internal vision
• Expect (and enjoy) discomfort

The main points may seem lofty, but the article does a nice job of simplifying them in and making them really hit home.
