How to build your inner strength

People are generally aware of the importance of self-improvement. However most of the time they emphasize external factors such as physical fitness or learning new skills. But external factors alone cannot lead you to the place you want to go. The key to gain external success is inner strength. The strong inner core can get you through bad times in your life. Here some tips and tricks that will help you to improve your inner strength.

Always prioritise yourself

You should always put yourself first. Keep your well being first before anything else, this will help you find a life flow that will be easy to maintain and control. Inner strength comes from you and you need to handle the tools and equipment of your life whenever life throws challenges in your way. Spend time with yourself so that you can build and procure these tools and equipment which will direct the path of your life. Try to be more egocentric as this will help you to achieve your goals and give positive results. From this Eleanor Roosevelt quote, you gain strength “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.”

Train yourself emotionally, mentally and physically 

Always remember that your body is much stronger than what you think. It can give you whatever you need and whenever you need the only requirement is the correct mindset. A right mindset can be considered as the right nutrients without which your body cannot perform well. A positive mindset will help to build your inner strength and you will be able to fight all the challenges of life.

Do not let your fears impact your decision

Do not say no to opportunities because you fear that you will not be able to do it. It is important to analyse the pros and cons before making any decision but it is equally important to be self-aware. Understand the difference between identifying risks and being fearful. In case it is only fear that is stopping you from your next challenge, opportunity or adventure then you are defeating yourself. Fear is your worst enemy that will derail your personal development and growth.

Declutter the mind

Even if you take out time to meditate for 10 minutes daily that will detox all the mental junk that reduces your energy. Meditation allows you to focus and give more clarity. People who meditate have mental clarity hence their minds work faster making them more decisive. Therefore, no matter how hectic your schedule is, always take out time to declutter your mind.

 Practice self-control and calm

Aggression can eat the creativity and strength of a person and replace it with close mindedness and hostility. Panic also reduces the inner strength by preoccupying your mind. Allow them to be replaced by controlled perseverance and calmness that will help you in achieving whatever you want.

Allow you to be your best friend 

You should not mind spending time with yourself. Whenever alone assume that you are spending time with your best friend. Absorb the joy in noticing little things around you. Your Time spent alone will be like mental nourishment and it will give you the strength to achieve all your goals and targets. 

Do what scares you!

This simply means that you can take up immense challenges that will increase your inner strength and confidence. Life is nothing but a struggle between what you assume that you can do and what you cannot do. You can only gain inner strength if you do the things that you thought you will not be able to do. Move out of your comfort zone, accept your challenge and strive for better results. This will make you stronger and will be an exhilarating exercise for you.

The decision, commitment and action

Increasing the inner strength relies on how efficiently you use your energy. Indecision reduces the energy and promotes failure to learn, act and thereby be decisive. It is also important to stay committed to the decision you make and take necessary action to achieve your goal.

Inconsistency is a part of life, it always throws tough challenges at your face but you should learn to overcome them all by realising your inner strength.
