If you’re feeling like you’re in a funk and have been for a while, then you might need a dramatic change to happen. Sometimes we find ourselves in a rut, not really moving forward and not really living the lives we want to live. If you feel that you’ve hit that point in your life, then I have three tips for dramatic ways you can improve your life, read on to learn more:
1. Contemplate Religion
Maybe you’re already sure about your religion so it might be good for you to invest more time and energy into your chosen religion. Learn more about it, get involved in your community and see how you can help out and make a real difference. This is a great way to make a dramatic change in your life. If you’re not religious, why not consider learning more about different religions to see whether any of them resonate with you. While you don’t need to be religious, many people take a lot of comfort in religious principles guiding their lives. http://BuddhismNature.com is a great resource if you’re interested in learning more about Buddhism and the main principles.
2. Upgrade Your Home
Whether you’re renting or currently own your home if you’re feeling like you’re in a major funk, why not consider moving? Does your neighbourhood have what you’re looking for, in terms of good schools for children, good gyms and sporting facilities nearby and good parks? Maybe your commute to work each day is long and draining, so logistically it might make more sense to move closer to your workplace so you can spend less time in traffic and more time enjoying your life. No matter your motivations, moving can be a great way to feel extremely refreshed and energized. It’s obviously not a decision you should take lightly, I suggest doing a lot of research to see what’s available within your budget. It can also be overwhelming browsing through real estate advertisements if they’re outside your budget or don’t meet your needs. That’s why I suggest working with an agent because it allows you to only focus on properties that are pre-screened to meet your criteria and budget.

3. Go On a Big Overseas Adventure
I feel very lucky to come from a country where an “overseas experience” (usually referred to as an OE) is expected and often encouraged. This means that a large majority of my friends have also travelled overseas for an extended period of time. There’s nothing quite like getting lost in a new country as a wonderful way to find yourself and to figure out what’s important to you in life. If you’re already established in your career, then it might not be possible to take an extended trip overseas, but even a two-week trip is a wonderful way to refresh and inspire yourself.
