People tend to change who they are so they can love themselves. Well..I don't like what I am either. I know you're supposed to. Like everyone says. But I badly want to change me. Everything I said I'll do becomes a lie. I get lazy and don't do it. So I don't change. And I badly want to. Can you help me change who I am. I need some help...again. Help me keep a promise. Please?

It is only you who can only change, we can only share some opinion but it's up to you how will you treat it. I don't know what particular area you want to change, but altering one's personality is a total mess, it is very hard to alter your self because sometimes you will be the one to contradict yourself. If you want to change some bad behavior, try to possess self-control and remind yourself that such unreasonable behavior won't help you either. It is always based on your well how can you change your not-so-nice attitude. Every time you sensed that you are getting overboard with your boundary then go back to what you are aiming-that is, really change-then take a deep breath and revitalized your behavior to be more acceptable to other people.

I can totally relate to where you are coming from. There are times during pretty much each day that I have similar thought on a number of those things that I would like to change about myself as well. The truth is, the more we think about it the closer we get to thinking no more and actually acting on it. Eventually we get so fed up with just thinking and pondering, as that which we want to change continues to remain that we just act. I think that the time between thinking and acting is good for us in that it gives us time to plan. Too much time given to thinking can be a major deterrent so best to keep that in mind. Some of the most successful people in the world do not spend a lot of time thinking before they act. If there is something that you want to change about yourself, you will if you want it bad enough. For those things that all of us don't act on and think about I believe are simply pipe dreams, something to pass time, daydreaming about. Pondering the idea doesn't hurt but if it something you genuinely want to do for yourself, then just do it. Know and remember that life is short. We can not bring back the hours, the minutes of yesterday. Do not put it off for the next day but start today. Take one day at a time. If we slip and fall, just get back up again. Take small steps. Take the plan of your thoughts and break them up into small goals. Always be thinking ahead by at least a day. Read positive or motivational affirmations. They can be very inspirational. I do not look at myself and see things that I would like to change so to be able to love myself. I already do love myself and is why I am inclined to ponder the changes in my grasp. I am my own best friend. If you want to bad enough you eventually will. maybe just stop thinking about it and move onto a planning stage and when you are ready, you will act. The best time of day for me to think about things I would like to change is in the evening, when it is quiet and I am winding down. The best time for me to start the planning process is first thing in the morning as I am still in bed waking up and during my first coffee of the day. Find the times that these thoughts come to you, where you so badly want to change you. Then pick a time that you feel most comfortable to start making the plans of action. Once the plans are made, recite them and look forward to acting on them. When the time is right you will. Stay strong and do it for you. You will be glad you did and begin to feel much better about yourself. Only you can keep a promise, be it made to yourself or to another. Be true to yourself and as good as your word. Others can support you and try to encourage you but all in all it is you that has to do what it takes to make the changes that you desire. You can do it!
