A new year often brings a new way of thinking as people aim to be the best version of themselves.

But with so many aspects of our lives to focus on, it can be confusing to work out which areas to concentrate on first.

Even some of the world's wealthiest and most influential people become muddled when it comes to self-improvement, which is where Michael Serwa comes in.

Polish-born Serwa is one of the top - and highest paid - life coaches in the UK.

His 'no-bullsh*t', unorthodox approach to life coaching earns him as much as £35k a year from some clients.

Here, he shares his top five simple tips for overhauling your life and being your best self.

1. Sense of fulfilment and happiness

Something that has nothing to do with your income level. Life is about more than work, no matter how much success you have. Commit time to doing something you love, for the pure joy of it.

2. Career direction/ job satisfaction

How much do you actually like what you do? You only have one life, don’t waste it for a moment.

Ask yourself some simple questions about your day to day reality, get real about whether you enjoy it or not?

3. Work/life balance

Do you hit a sweet spot between you professional and personal life? You need balance to have a fulfilled life, so plan on how to get out of your work, financial success or business and into everything else life has to offer.

4. Lifestyle changes

Drugs, drinking, smoking - how much is too much and what is their impact on your wellbeing or performance?

Your health can hugely affect your life, from the obvious ways like pain and disease, to your daily physical, mental and emotional functioning. Impact your life fast by analysing which habits hold you back and which could give you more energy to life your best life every day.

5. Self-discipline

Becoming more by doing more in a strategic way based around clearly defined goals.

You don’t want to just achieve, you want to achieve with efficiency, precision and passion - you have a lot to get done! Hire a coach, get real about your goals - professional and personal - and explore how not just to get it done, but get it done efficiently and with the most fun possible.
