How To Find Motivation

I hate to exercise. I really do. I feel good afterward, and I’m definitely getting in better shape because of it, but I hate it. It’s a real challenge for me. Anyway what do my exercise habits have to do with finding motivation? Hang on for a few moments and it will all make sense. It may even be enlightening.

My latest physical check-up highlighted a few health challenges and lots of room for improvement. I’m planning an active holiday and the check-up showed that I would not be capable of enjoying the holiday and taking part in the activities unless there were some big changes in my health. That was a strong motivation to get back in shape, right? Sure it is, but that didn’t make it easy.

I’d get on the treadmill bound and determined to walk for 30 minutes, and I’d find myself getting bored out of my mind and irritated with the soreness in my muscles 15 minutes into it. Half the time I would just give up, and the other half was so aggravating that I vowed never to do it again. Of course, my motivation was strong, and so I’d try again the next day.

Taking Action Conquers Fear

Most of your obstacles would melt away if,
instead of cowering before them
or procrastinating about dealing with them,

Nothing in life is to be feared.
It is only to be understood.

When you dare to face the things that scare you,
you open the door to freedom and success.

Life with a grain of salt

Not permitting things get to you and taking life with a grain of salt is the answer to living a happy stress free life; it’s when we don’t recognize how much stress we are building up because of holding things back, worrying about many little things and harboring grudges that many problems come about in life. When we allow these things to build up we get the sudden and urgent sense of being overwhelmed but often there are many different techniques that we can use to slow down, relax and take life that little bit easier when our feelings threaten to overwhelm us. If we don’t learn to take things with a grain of salt and not worry about each and every little thing and stress becomes habitual then it can have a severe effect on your health and wellbeing.

“Burnout” is the condition or term that is commonly used and you can suffer burnout through problems caused by work, your lifestyle or individual personality characteristics.

Is there a Law on Human Attraction ?

“Opposites attract” is a law of attraction, at least where electromagnetism is concerned. So what about people are there laws about attraction between two people?

Is attraction simply a matter of chemistry?

Perhaps. According to scientists, the attraction between animals of the opposite sex is all about chemicals called pheromones. The effect of pheromones in behavior of insects is the most studied to date. It has been observed, at least in some experiments, that pheromones are responsible for communication among same species and colony of ants. The horrible odor released by skunks to ward off enemies is said to be a kind of pheromone. Some species of apes rub pheromone-containing urine on the feet of potential mates to attract them. Some scientists believe that animals (usually the females) such as insects and mammals send out these chemical signals to tell the male of their species that their genes are different from theirs. This gene diversity is important in producing offspring with better chances of survival. The perfume industry has capitalized on pheromones as a means to increase one’s sexual attractiveness to the opposite sex. Animals such as the whale and the musk deer were hunted down for these chemicals.
