Dr’s Answer

Hey Sunny!

Getting better at something—whether it’s a skill, habit, or mindset—is all about consistent improvement and smart practice. Since your question is open-ended, here’s a rounded approach to leveling up in any area of life.

1. Set Clear Goals

What do you want to improve? Be specific.

Example: Instead of “I want to be better at public speaking,” try “I want to confidently present a 5-minute speech without reading from notes.”

2. Learn from the Best

Read books, watch tutorials, or take courses from experts in your field.

Find a mentor or someone who’s already where you want to be.

3. Practice with Purpose

Just doing something over and over isn’t enough—you need deliberate practice (focused improvement with feedback).

Example: If you want to get better at writing, don’t just write a lot—analyze what works, get feedback, and refine your style.

4. Track Your Progress

Keep a journal or log of what you’re working on.
Small wins over time add up!

5. Push Through Challenges

Growth happens outside your comfort zone. If something feels tough, you’re probably learning.
Don’t let mistakes stop you—learn from them.

6. Build Strong Habits

Improvement isn’t about occasional big efforts—it’s about consistent small actions.

For instance: Want to be healthier? Start with 5-minute workouts instead of waiting for motivation to hit.

7. Stay Patient & Keep Going

Progress isn’t always fast, but as long as you don’t quit, you’ll keep getting better.

Whatever you’re working on, you’ve got this! Let me know if you need help breaking down anything else we are here for you mate and I belive in you! Good luck! 😎🤗

Dr recommends the following next steps:

Pick one skill or area to improve.
Set a specific, achievable goal for the next 30 days.
Find resources (books, courses, mentors) to guide you.
Practice daily, even if it’s just for 10-15 minutes.
Reflect on what’s working and what needs adjustment

Hi Sunny -

A simple tip is to always have a hunger to learn new things. Become great at the things you like and are already good at. Then shift your attention to areas of development that you normally run from, this is where your best opportunities are.

Do the things that make you uncomfortable; they may be difficult at first, but with each moment you'll keep getting better. This ensures that you keep adding new skills and not just get good at the skills you're comfortable with.

Also, there are some general personal principles that will ensure success in anything you do.
1. Act with Integrity! Always behave with the highest level of honesty, trust and be straightforward.
2. Be Reliable! Show up and deliver on your promises. Do the things that you say will do.
3. Be Curious! Understand what you do. Don't be afraid to dig in, question things, ask why! Learn every step of the way.
4. Be Adaptive! Things are always changing. Be ready for it, expect it, change is inevitable. Take change as an opportunity for something new.
5. Be Open-minded! Perspective means there are many ways to look at the same thing. Be willing to accept differing opinions, it is not always simple as wrong or right.
6. Network, Network! Build and continue building strong relationships at all levels. Surround yourself with good people, whom you can support in some way and that support you. Have mentors, be a mentee.
7. Create a Self-Brand! Make yourself known for the attributes that you want highlighted, whether your character, your skills or your talents. Spend time identifying what you want to be known for, emulate those things and introduce yourself at every chance with that!

Hope this helps!
