When you're in a situation where you've tried your best to do everything you can but still get messed up, then maybe it's time to "hit the reset button". To re-establish your life you need to let go of past actions and rationalize things. At the same time experience new things.

Steps

Part 1 of 4: Forget the Past

1. 

   Understand your current position. Reconsider life issues such as relationships, work, finances, and health. If those problems are not working the way you want it to be then it's time to admit. Resetting your life isn't easy, but start by accepting where you are.
   • You only find a solution once you realize the problem.
   • Ignore the value judgments during this stage. The most important thing is to see it clearly, not to blame yourself or anyone else.

2. 

   
   
   Let the past sleep. Whether you recall your bitter experiences or "good days" in the past, life goes on. Continuing to immerse yourself in the past will prevent you from re-establishing your own life.
   • Letting go of past pain requires you to make a decision. You cannot let go of the past without making a clear statement.
   • Beautiful memories also make you feel "stuck" when life is not as smooth as expected.

3. 

   
   
   Releasing anything that is not fun. Look at your life and consider each of them one at a time. You can write it down if you want. Does this make you happy? If the answer is no then you should forget about it.
   • The matter, the situation, and the person that once brought joy might not be like that anymore.
   • If you do not use something, discard it. Don't wear any clothes, household items, books that can't be read, give them. Cleaning your home will help your mind and body feel lighter.
   • If something needs fixing, take the time to do it. If not, give it.
   • Forget about thoughts and feelings that exhaust you and overwhelm you. As you notice these thoughts and feelings begin to form, remind yourself that this is just your own way of thinking. Focus your attention on something more beneficial.

4. 

   
   
   Decide to break the habit. If you're trying to break a habit that isn't in your life, the reset is the perfect time to do it. Start by recognizing unhealthy habits, when you first formed them and how you want to change them. For example, if you want to stop biting your nails, start tracking how many times you bit your nails and how you behaved in the act. Think about how you felt when biting your nails and consider a more positive alternative.
   • Find alternative habits. In the case of nail biting, you can choose an alternative to chewing sugar-free gum or eating celery, carrots.
   • Find a support person. Ask a friend or family member to help you change your habits. Is there a local community that can assist you? Working together can help you feel more responsible and motivated to change your habits.
   • If you can imagine yourself changing your habits successfully, then surely you will. Visualizing your new life is an important step in resetting your life.
   • Don't give up because you can't do it. Habit is not easy to erase. Keep in mind that every day is a new beginning to correct mistakes. Be patient.

5. 

   Bear in mind that it's not always bad to end. Reset life is an opportunity to clear up your "mess". Time is gold and silver. To get things done you sometimes have to let go of many things.
   • If you feel happier and more satisfied with your life, you will live more fully with the people and situations you keep with you.
   • Continue with this process without fear or judgment. This is not a question of good or bad.

Part 2 of 4: Learn to Live with Reality

1. 

   Reconsider your core values. Core values ​​are the beliefs and persuasion that guide our thoughts and actions in life. People usually have 5-7 core values. These values ​​change very slowly but are not unchanging. If you re-establish your life, now is the time to re-examine your core values.
   • To determine what your core values ​​are, think about the time when you spent the most time in your life. Think about the value that represents reality, choose the one that motivates you the most.
   • Consider what that value means to you, in all aspects of your life. Is that the core value or not? If yes, write it down.
   • Repeat this process until you have identified at least 5 core values.
   • Moving forward, every time you make a decision, review your list of core values. Are these decisions consistent with our core values? True and strong life is consistent with our core values.

2. 

   Forgive yourself and others. Holding on to resentment towards yourself or others will only drain your energy. To reset your life is about forgetting the hatred. Becoming a victim of the actions of others in the past means that you put your happiness in the hands of others, either accidentally or intentionally.
   • You can share your frustration with others. Sometimes outsiders can give you a fresh look.
   • Feeling guilty about past mistakes is a heavy feeling. Everyone regrets whether more or less. Try to learn from your mistakes and pay attention to what you learn about yourself in the process. Every mistake in the past is an opportunity to learn new things about yourself.
   • Forgiveness is a sign of strength, not weakness. Refusing to forgive someone else's past actions does not make you stronger. Instead, it interferes with your ability to move on.

3. 

   More jokes. Playboys often live without fear in the present and think creatively about the future. When we grow up we often forget to play. Research shows that less playfulness leads to rigid perception - the last thing you need when you want to reset your life. Regular play will help your imagination fly away and find effective solutions
   • There are many ways to play around. Blowing bubbles, playing cards, taking an art class or development class are ways for everyone to entertain. Find an activity that is interesting and relevant to you.
   • Invite friends and family to join you. Playing with loved ones will help you stick to the game and it will gradually become your daily activity.

4. 

   Face your fear. Do things outside of your comfort zone to help you gain confidence. The hormone epinephrine contributes to creation. Because fear prevents you from changing your life, you remain stuck in your old behavior.
   • Break a big challenge into small steps. For example, if you're afraid of diving, start with a local swimming or fitness class. If you are afraid of going out alone, start with a bar or take away.
   • Consider why you are so scared. When was the first time you felt fear? How does it happen? Knowing more about yourself and your fears is an important part of rebuilding your life.

5. 

   Learn how to replace unhealthy behaviors. Most of us are aware of our own unhealthy behaviors such as smoking, drinking alcohol, eating too much or not exercising regularly. The way to solve this problem is to have a positive behavior change instead of feeling guilt, fear or regret.
   • Setting specific, manageable goals helps us to make them more productive. For example, instead of feeling guilty for not exercising regularly, walk 20 minutes 4 days a week.
   • It is important to plan how to achieve your goals. Simply wanting to quit is less effective than planning a quit plan. Seek help from a health professional or a friend.
   • Invite others to join the plan to make you more accountable for your actions. More participants are also happier and you won't feel bored.

   Turn negative into positive. If you come across negative thoughts about people, places or something, turn the situation upside down. You cannot change your first thought, but you can learn to change your second thought.This is followed by a positive outlook on the person, place, or thing.
   • For example, if you are going to visit your mother-in-law, instead of thinking she is bad at cooking, keep in mind that you can spend time playing in her lovely garden.
   • If you find yourself in a bad situation, try to find the positives in it. Remember that each situation has a value and experience to learn from.

Part 4 of 4: Preparing for Success

1. 

   Limit your goals. If you accomplish too many different goals, it will be difficult to succeed. Instead, prioritize goals that help you lead a healthier lifestyle.
   • Start by replacing behaviors that have a negative impact on your life. For example, if your drinking habits are affecting your relationships, family, and work, you should change it before addressing other issues like less exercise.
   • Talk to your healthcare professional before making a big change in your daily routine. They can offer suggestions, help and advice.
   • Reward yourself for changes. For example, if you are quitting smoking, take the money used to buy medicine to buy a new shirt, go out or have dinner with friends.
