HOW TO REINVENT YOURSELF AND BECOME A NEW PERSON


You have come to the part of learning how to reinvent yourself. Here are the steps and tips you need to keep in mind.

Be aware of where you are now

This is the point of self-assessment and becoming self-aware of who you are right now. In order to make a plan, you have to know what you are planning for and what your goals are in your self-reinvention. You can answer some questions to help you assess your situation.

  • How is your physical health?
  • How is your mental well-being?
  • How is your career?
  • How is your financial stability?

Example: 
I am not in the best shape.
I always have negative thoughts and low self-esteem.
I have a great, well-paying job that I love.
I am learning and becoming more financially independent.

Create a list of traits you want to acquire


Now that you know where you are currently, think about the type of person you want to be. 

  • What are the personality traits and qualities of this person? 
  • How does this person live?
  • How does this person present themself in public?
  • What makes this person the better version of you?

Example:
I want to be feminine, fit, confident, and well-spoken. I want to embody beauty, inside and outside of me and in my surroundings.

List 2-5 habits/activities you need to do to achieve each trait

This may be the tricky part because this is where the action plan comes to fruition. If you have identified the traits that you want to embody, do some research and find out what people who possess these traits and qualities do and how they live. 

Take some inspiration from them and choose activities you can easily start to do in your own life. Do not go wild and start a 4:00 AM morning routine cold turkey, give yourself time to get used to these new activities in your life.

Example: To become...
  • Feminine: go dancing, journal, do your makeup
  • Fit/healthy: eat a healthier diet, take daily walks
  • Confident: do mirrorwork, improve or pick a new style and positive self-talk
  • Well-spoken: read books, take classes or online courses to become a better speaker

Plan how and when you incorporate those habits in your life

Create routines that you can easily and consistently follow to incorporate into your life. Set time in your schedule to do the activities that you have chosen. This is the positive habit creation part of your self-reinvention.

Example:
  • Feminine: 
    • Dancing classes on Thursday night
    • Journal every morning/night
    • Do makeup daily
  • Fit/healthy
    • Make healthy food choices daily
    • Take daily 30-minute walks in the morning
  • Confident
    • Do mirrorwork each morning to start your day
    • Improve or pick a new style
    • Positive self-talk for 10 minutes a day and whenever you catch your negative thoughts creeping in
  • Well-spoken
    • Read 2 chapters in the afternoon
    • Take classes or online courses on the weekend

Set realistic goals

Reinventing yourself overnight is not the goal here. Reinventing yourself will take time and patience. Set goals that are timely and reasonable.

Create a Vision Board


Make your own vision board to visualize your goals and dreams. This journey of reinventing yourself is intentional and as you set your intentions, you must visualize and realize them in your life. Remember that your thoughts have the power to create action and as you take action, this becomes the result.


Be patient and consistent with the plan

Don't expect to be a new changed person in the blink of an eye. To reinvent yourself and become a new person with powerful habits, you need to stay consistent with your plan. Be patient and do your best.

Document and journal your experience with your reinvention

Think of it like a little science experiment and you need to know what works and what doesn't. Write down how you feel or react to doing certain tasks, what you could do differently to improve and what difficulties you are experiencing and overcoming.

FINAL THOUGHTS

When you decide that you want to reinvent yourself and become a new person, always embrace the mindset that change is good. Change inspires the growth mindset that we all need. We may not realize it but as we live our daily lives, we are on this constant journey of self-reinvention. 

With the habits and traits you gain through your self-reinvention, you learn and realize more about yourself and the world you live in. Keep learning and growing as a person and be the best version of yourself. Believe in yourself.
