Find a hobby that makes being alone feel lovely and empowering and like something to look forward to.
Find a style that works for you and build a wardrobe around it. Try to add to it a little each month.

Identify your fears and instead of letting them dictate your every move, find and talk to people who have overcome them.
If you’re employed in any capacity, open a savings account.
Keep a couple of house plants that aren’t cacti.
Keep a list of books you want to read and work your way through it.
Kiss someone you think is out of your league
Learn a new language
Learn a new skill, like a foreign language, an instrument, or even something like dealing cards.

Learn to cook
Learn to cook at least three or four of your favourite meals really well.

Learn to say no.
Leave the country under the premise of “finding yourself.” This will be unsuccessful. Places do not change people. Instead, do a lot of solo drinking, read a lot of books, have sex in dirty hostels, and come home when you start to miss it.

Quit that job that’s making you miserable, end the relationship that makes you act like a lunatic, lose the friend whose sole purpose in life is making you feel like you’re perpetually on the verge of vomiting. You’re young, you’re resilient, there are other jobs and relationships and friends if you’re patient and open.
