Why you should invest in yourself
Posted on October 21, 2019 by Cliona Byrne, One of Thousands of Life Coaches on Noomii.
You could be living your ideal life right now if you invested in yourself. Take your time and invest it to create a life that you love.
When was the last time you truly invested in yourself? Maybe when you bought yourself that coffee that saved your life? Em… those doesn’t count.
Most people don’t invest in themselves and then remain shocked at how their lives are not moving forward or why they are stuck in a rut.
Let’s get this clear, investing in yourself is when you spend your time doing something that will improve you as a person. Your parents may have done this for you while you were growing up by paying for your piano classes, teaching you their skills, and maybe even paying for your university fees. They exchanged their time for money so they could invest in you.
Many people can go their entire life without investing in themselves. But you don’t have to be that person. You can invest in you. You can go study, learn a language, learn new skills, travel the world, or get a coach. Getting a coach is the number one way that you can invest in yourself.
People who hire coaches know that they want the best out of their lives and they want it all happen sooner rather than later. People who don’t hire coaches think that they can go it alone, but these people are usually the ones lamenting that they haven’t written a book/started a business/or travelled to Asia by now.
Investing in yourself is putting time into doing things to improve yourself. Time is the only thing that we can’t get more of. So why waste your time on “figuring it out for yourself” when you could jump start your life and invest now?
Coaching will give you:
1. Perspective on your life and goals
2. Save you buckets of time
3. Boost your motivation
4. Hold you accountable
You should invest in yourself because you are worth investing in. You have one life, use it wisely and make the most out of it.
