5 Ways To Supercharge Your Life

Well, I know y'all are saying "It's been a minute since kammy has updated her blog" and I agree with you 100%, but I was in my writer's hole just figuring out life and constantly finding ideas to keep making amazing blog posts. Trust me, it's not an easy task but it's something that I truly love doing. Anyhow, I wanted to make a list of ways to supercharge your life. Maybe there's someone out there like me and you feel like your life is very boring and repetitive. Well, I'm here to give you just a few suggestions on how you can amp up the fun and excitement in your life. Let's begin...

1. Travel, travel, travel. Traveling is a great way to escape from the boring routines of life. I find it exciting when I even go to new cities in my state. One of the things I've been wanting to do in my life is visit every city in CT. There's a lot of towns and places that I've never heard of and wouldn't have if I didn't research it. Traveling improves your health. From cutting down on stress, to lowering your chances of developing a heart disease, the health benefits of traveling are huge. Traveling also disconnects you from your daily lives. there's an endless amount of things that we have to deal with and think about on a daily basis, but isn't it great when we're able to just put all of it to rest just for a little while? It's good for our mental health to be able to not think about school, jobs, achievements, etc... and have time just for ourselves to relax and explore the world. Sometimes it's best to take a step back, take a deep breath and take that Tower Bridge selfie!  Traveling can allow so many great experiences for your life and add great enjoyment that you may never get a chance to have if you allowed work and school to always get in your way.

2. Invest More Time in Your Hobbies. I'm sure there's a majority of people who have some type of hobby. According to the dictionary, hobbies is a regular activity done for enjoyment typically during one's leisure time. Maybe a lot of us don't have time to really enjoy hobbies, but let me tell you, finding the time for them at some point in your life is worth it. I am one of those people who have neglected my hobbies for awhile and have become drained because my time and energy has mostly been spent on work and career related things and how to stay on top. Those things are very important in life and something we should all think about, but it can make us overwhelmed if we put too much thought into it. For a lack of a better word, if we worry about our future then that's when it becomes overwhelming. So, hobbies are both enjoyable and, depending on the type of hobby you have, can expand your creativity. Reading is one of my hobbies and it helps expand my vocabulary, listening to music strengthens learning and memory. Taking time for our hobbies can be very beneficial to us in many ways.

3. Spend Time with Friends/ Meet People. I often stress the importance of having a social life is. I feel like if your social life is in a good place it can help numerous things like: Reduces risk of many significant health problems, depression, high blood pressure, and an unhealthy body mass index. Studies have shown that people with richer social lives are likely to live longer. Friendships can also boost your happiness and reduce your stress. You all know how much better your life is when you're doing it with others. Of course, problems will still arise but isn't it more comforting when you can count on someone to listen to you and understand you. For those who were like the teenager me (with no social life), I want you to try your very best to make connections. You may not hit it off with someone right off the bait and sometimes you will, but believe in yourself and let others see that you believe in yourself. Don't let them see you view yourself negatively on the first few meetings. However, when a relationship gets stronger you can express to them some of your struggles and such, but remember, your friends aren't a tissue box haha. I've learned not to always just talk about my problems to my friends but tell them my ideas and funny stories. You'd be surprised at some of the places you can meet new people. Places like the library, stores, various events. You can also meet new people by getting involved in something like I did! Find somewhere you can start volunteering, find a social group you can be apart of where they share the same interests as you like video game groups, bookclubs, knitting circles and things like that. Today is your day and I dare you to take up your social life a notch. You'll be glad you did.

4. Do Something You've Never Done Before. Yes, it's scary for most of us but sometimes very rewarding at the same time. And no,I don't mean to ridiculous things like climb the effel tower, but do things that are within reason. Try a new sport or instrument. If you suck at it, who cares you know that it was just for a fun life experience. But sometimes you gotta stretch yourself a little bit in order to discover what you're really capable of doing. By doing something that you've never done it can help overcome fear, gives you a chance to get to know yourself better and stimulates creativity! So go on, try something today, tomorrow or whenever. You can do it!

5. Go to a Concert or Some Type of Fun Event. Me and my sister have gone to concert every year for about 13 years now. It has become an annual thing for us. Why? Because it's something we can look forward to and act a little crazy sometimes haha. But it's great to have that type of thing in your life that you can look forward to. It can be a concert, or sporting event or going to the museum. Each of us have our own  definitions of fun and different ways we like to have fun. But the important part is that, we give ourselves the reward of doing whatever it is to have fun. To jump up and down and scream. Doing fun things can boost our energy and improve our connection with others because, when we're doing something fun we most likely don't do it alone, do we? And if you do, heck it's your life. Have fun with your life!


Well, that concludes my list. Let me know your thoughts on this blog post in the comments below. Let know if you'd consider doing some of these things to help better your life (or supercharge as I like to say). If introverted me is willing to do some of these things, I know that you can do it too. Enjoy your week, month, year, however long it may be that you guys hear from me again. Hopefully it'll be soon and I'll find ways to keep my creative juices flowing.



Keep being great,

Kammy❤👋😊
