Motivation

What is the term “Motivation”?

Motivation is an action that motivates a person toward an outcome. Motivation consists of self-actualization, job satisfaction, career growth and personal development. People who desire to make a successful career out of it, are motivated towards making their careers more than just money making it one of the best jobs in this world. But, if we talk about other people, they become very negative towards it. They start blaming others for not doing well, and this is wrong. Many people get stuck in such negativity and never strive to achieve such dreams. One has to overcome all the negativity of society and make it strong enough with a self-motivated career and other things in life. By overcoming all the negativities and working hard towards your dream you will definitely achieve peace of mind and also get yourself fulfilled.

Motivation is important as you can’t learn and accomplish life goals if you are not motivated. In order to be successful, we must be able to focus on them. If we are not motivated then we won’t achieve them. There is no achievement without a drive. And, if you don’t feel motivated, you will get trapped. Do you know why? Because nobody wants to do anything in life unless there is someone pushing them, motivating them to do it. Nobody feels safe except you! So, no need to worry. Everything can only go wrong when you haven’t got the proper motivation. As you can see that by feeling motivated there is nothing like you can fail without mistakes and also mistakes happen only when
you don’t have motivation.

What are motivational factors?


1. Job Satisfaction

Everyone feels satisfied when he/she gets a chance to do their job and the job does well. Let’s look into one example where I am at my new job after completing three years in the same company. I got the opportunity to play rugby. When I went back to my university, I was totally obsessed with getting a degree, so that’s why I started playing rugby. I got so much respect from my employer for playing the game perfectly and also because of the way my co-workers supported me and believed in me.

2. Self-Discovery

People who find themselves unable to meet their desired goals easily drop their goals and take up different activities and start looking for fulfilment instead of achieving them. It is highly recommended that we seek our independence first. We should start by trying something new once a day.

Take time to decide it whether is leisure or business. The thing is if you don’t want to change, then, we all end up not wanting to do something else. As long as you want to work, as long as you are not working on some goal or another, you should not stop thinking about achieving your goals. Always remember, that motivation doesn’t mean having fun. Never think about fulfilling your desires if you don’t want to.

3. Family Planning

All women want a family but, most of them end up having abortions.
The problem is that we never realize when all these problems start coming up due to not knowing what we really want. I want to give an example of my case. After being married for seven years, my wife asked me to move to Australia, Australia. She wanted us to live together. She didn’t want more children for herself. I said yes to her request but we had to sell all our properties and also leave behind our house to start with, so that’s why she was not happy and told me that things can get worse from here. After leaving home for two weeks, she took my daughter away. Without informing me. I called her and asked if we can get her back but to no avail. I tried everything, and nothing could help me. Suddenly, my wife came back and took my child with her and brought me back for eight months. We did not even plan to bring an extra child back for such a short period.

4. Work Experience

For many people, the key factor for success is the experience and skills we got from work. Most of the companies we are associated with giving training so that we can stay updated and also acquire new skills. Some firms may not pay any incentives but give pieces of training to everyone who will help us in our professional careers. Even though some of us might have little knowledge about the field, we don’t want to let go of it just to earn money. Therefore, I would suggest you join companies and invest in learning about their business or profession. From there you can get the work experience you need for success.

All businesses are offering training and job experience and it is time now to learn and grow yourself. A lot of people learn without experience while others stay at institutions for their whole lives. Don’t go thinking that every firm will offer you a perfect job experience. Just be prepared, because experience isn’t a requirement. If you feel lucky enough to have an experienced job then start earning your living by working. There is still ample room for improvement as you should always try to acquire more experiences from companies and try something new after every job you get.

5. Personal Growth

Personal growth means learning more, understanding less and growing faster. Those who try to grow faster end up not growing. If one grows faster than normal then he/she cannot manage stress. Our physical health is a reflection of our health mentally. Do we want to lose our health and then start suffering physically? That is not natural at all. It is high time we learn how to balance mental and physical health. Life lessons are the greatest teachers. Make sure you learn from the experience of those who were struggling a lot. For those who struggle a lot, it might be better not to lose hope and
continue learning and improving yourself. Only when we change our attitude and approach will we succeed. This is true even when we are not experiencing the necessary level of success. Failure to learn from experience is a failure; because learning happens when you take a step back and observe that there is no failure but only success when one learns from experience. Learning, for us, is a process of moving forward and seeing what works. To move forward, we have to grow while remaining stable. That’s the reason why many of us become complacent and lose touch with our goals.

Why Motivation Matters

Motivated individuals enjoy all types of success whether in career management, business or other fields of life. Success is the measure of someone’s ability to create meaning in his/her life. While pursuing a worthy goal in life, we must always stand out from the crowd. With motivation, we can develop ourselves beyond our limitations. Motivated beings can achieve great achievements which bring glory and fame. Motivated individuals become successful by taking chances and breaking all the barriers in life. These individuals make sacrifices and put themselves at risk in pursuit of greatness for love and happiness. Here are some ways that motivation helps a person achieve success in life.

1) Improve Your Health

If there is a lot of stress in your lifestyle, it makes it easy to get ill and may be an excuse for lack of success and prosperity. However, motivated individuals will not let us down anymore without making efforts to improve our health and overcome all these troubles.

2) Develop New Skills

If you are not getting results then maybe you need to start developing. Start practising new skills if possible. Learn something new. Acquire the required expertise and learn new skills. Practice and practice more and more until you get the results the demand. Also, try to use technology to boost up, because, we are becoming intelligent, smart and creative. Use social media platforms that enable us to share with other people. Know that it is the greatest tool anyone can use to influence others. Also, try finding good coaches to guide us through difficult times.

3) Achieve Career Goals

It often happens that when someone wants to become a successful businessman and wants to follow his passion, he/she runs away from him/herself and fails to achieve his objectives. This is completely understandable but, it doesn’t solve the problem at all in reality. Instead of running away, the motivational method is to start building and building on him/herself. It is quite common that ambitious people to avoid all work and start looking for other distractions. But, with the courage and commitment of motivated individuals, they start focusing on themselves. Then, things turn out beautifully.

4) Avoid Negative Friendships

I think it is rather important when we start feeling that we lose those friends whom we thought had always been supportive and also our loved ones are betraying us in this situation. That is why, sometimes, you need to set boundaries. Find a friendship group of similar friends that value each other but do not compromise on our principles. When we try to surround ourselves with our friend groups such as sports teams, schools, volunteers, etc., it becomes tough on the relationship. It leads to disappointment. Remember, friendship is best when our values are aligned. Thus, it becomes crucial that we make plans and prepare for a break-up as soon as possible.

5) Be Positive Every Day

Every person is very unique and thus we have to adopt a positive mindset in order to achieve success. Not all people think that you have to be positive all the time when you are going through difficult situations. But, as the saying goes, positivity wins the race. So, we should always be grateful that we get good positivity in our life and always remind ourselves to take care of our own positivity.

How to spread goodness into our world?

How to spread goodness into our world?

https://www.mentalhealthbrains.com/2022/01/how-to-spread-goodness-into-our-world.html

How to spread goodness into our world?

There are a lot of ways of spreading goodness in the world, but in this post, I will be sharing my way of that for you and by way of spreading goodness on your own. You will learn about different types of kindness like kindness. I will share different aspects of kindness and hopefully, you will love it as much as I did. As we know if our hearts and minds love our dear God, we can always see life through a veil. But if not, we can never live our lives because we have nothing else to live except each other. So how can we spread goodness and get it out everywhere in the world let's start by loving our God first? Now let’s move on; In order to be kind, you must be kinder than yourself. Kindness does not mean ‘being nice’, but we should always love each other and love ourselves unconditionally. If you follow God and don’t have friends, don't even have family members. Then all you should follow God. What does ‘being kind’ mean to me? Being kind means giving your 100% attention and time to anyone without expecting something in return (that's called non-kindness). Love on others while loving on yourself is actually giving yourself grace. That's how important it is to love everyone unconditionally and not only in the name of politeness or being nice to others. We should always give one another forgiveness instead of feeling sorry and forgiving ourselves for whatever we have done in this world. Not feeling sorry or forgetting or anything, just seeing and accepting what we deserve as we forgive others and knowing that someone forgives us makes us strong. It is also when we forgive that we learn that we can then become stronger. To love the whole of a man can also mean learning humility. Humility means taking responsibility and making personal decisions. Humility also means not being afraid to speak up and take bold steps. Take bold steps and let no man try to stop you. Don’t worry he'll know soon enough if we're trying to fight at a problem or we'll be able to make a big change and not let him make it impossible. Even though it's hard sometimes, we can always find a way. Also knowing that others are willing to help us helps us grow bigger. We should love each other in every action we take and never make excuses, let's go to somebody if we are going to do a good deed, and never forget that we are all humans. Never let any person put their ego in front of ours for the sake of hating on them. Do not walk away from the things that matter to us. Love everyone and make it happen. This is really true for human beings, there are many people who are unwilling to do anything because they don't want to lose their place in society. Be kind to everyone around you. Especially if that is a friend for goodness sake. Also, remember we are all very special humans we are always unique and special. And by becoming kind to everybody we can show that we are special also, so everyone will be able to find out. For goodness sake, I am saying do not take anyone’s hand off yours until you know that it’s really not an evil thing to do. Remember when we were children and everyone said no, then we would run away and hide, but now we know that as adults we could run away, hide and flee again. People are still going to leave us for some reason. Let's stay positive all of us will come back someday. If you don't want to be a victim again, be wise and save yourself. Avoid looking to blame us for being victims. Rather you will blame yourself for letting them destroy the Earth. In the words of Jesus, "Love your neighbour as yourself." Don't look to blame us for our problems, don't blame the person who left us, the ones who hurt us. Instead, look for healing from something that caused it. When you are dealing with someone or something does not hate them, but listen and learn, and learn what not to do. Learn why they didn't help and why they didn't help. Learn about forgiveness and learn to be okay with all the mistakes we have made and learn from them. All of us have had issues in our lives, especially during times of hardship. Most of us have our ups and downs but we have grown bigger and we can handle more than we can handle. We are all capable of handling tough
situations because God has given us His power and strength to carry us through those difficult times. But we as humans just can't handle it well. So here's what we can do. We can turn to God and ask him to help us grow stronger. He can help us feel stronger and teach us to be wiser and more powerful than other people.Now the main question is: how can we love God first? Well, we can't. Unless we follow Him and be grateful for everything He has given us, we can never see heaven. We can't see the blessings in the world. So we must find them and love them first. Love doesn't mean pity, it simply means taking care of our fellowmen. Love is not only about feeling; we must love God above all else. Love should be the answer to all our questions and prayers. So let's work on finding love first. Here those who love God will get a certain amount. Anybody that loves God will get eternal love. These people who love God first will only get eternal love and eternity but if those same people are only kind to themselves, they will also receive eternal love, but only as long as you continue to be kind to other people. Those who follow God are those who follow Him first, and they also get everlasting love. They love God as well as His gifts and gifts because they are continually receiving and offering them. We also love God first not only with whom we follow but also as who we should love and do not compare it with. This brings me to the second type of kindness, kindness towards the world. Let's talk about kindness for goodness sake. Some people are kind of cruel, they have been in trouble in their past times and they don't deserve forgiveness. We must also never judge those who do wrong. Don't let God send down his anger upon innocent people. Love each other, never forget about the past, and you never know when those pain and misery days will be. No one deserves forgiveness, but if we as human beings can't make that mistake at least we don't know what we have done wrong. Love others and forgive them. Give out forgiveness to those who hurt us. Make time to go through the pain of the past and learn something from it. Teach us about life and death, and learn to forgive. We are meant to forgive, after all, it's not possible to forgive everyone. Because we were responsible for our sins we should have forgiven everyone else also. Just like Christ, we can forgive one another and as a result of that forgiving make others also forgive us in the future. And forgiveness means we can forgive our brother and sister. So before you make a judgement, always check your heart, as well as your love for your friend. Also when speaking about forgiveness, do not judge others, but always love them. Forgiving is like a gift, but we all know it's real as well (if not) just like a gift. It's something we can never earn. However, forgiveness can be earned and sometimes it makes us really happy. So while talking about forgiveness let's start forgiving each other. Try not to blame anyone, forgive them and move on. Love your enemies one another, forgive them, love thy enemy, forgive them and move on. So by forgiving and moving on from our enemies we can move on to forgive others and be happy. Of course, forgiveness means that our relationship with God should be at peace all the time. If you forgive someone is hard then that person will also have to forgive you for doing the same. If you forgive them they can also forgive you for not forgiving them. By being kind to others, forgiving them and making time to forgive ourselves we can all forgive each other better and get closer together. Another way of forgiveness we can get closer to God is through service. Service can also be a great way to learn forgiveness skills. A simple act of service with gratitude is much easier to practice forgiveness. Serve each other and never put favours and benefits before others. Always give people what they need and never complain about their behaviour. We owe this to our Lord Jesus that gave his life for us, forgiving them for theirs and making it better for them. This is just a shortlist of the goodness that we should seek on our own, but I hope you enjoy reading it to the fullest. Also, check out my book where I shared this goodness with you. Check it out and read it. Thank you so much for reading my story and for liking it. I love hearing your stories too so thank you!

Blood Pressure

Blood Pressure

https://www.mentalhealthbrains.com/2022/01/blood-pressure.html

Blood Pressure

A drop in blood pressure can be a sign that you might have an elevated cholesterol level, heart disease, diabetes, or high blood sugar levels. Low blood pressure means that your blood pressure was lower than normal. If this happens regularly you should check with a doctor if there’s anything new and/or concerning.

How much does my blood pressure usually go up?

Your blood pressure is actually a type of fluid that gets pumped out from the walls of your veins in the arm that has a heart muscle in it. It also goes down through sweat, urine and menstrual cycles. The higher the blood pressure is, the stronger your blood keeps pumping faster to pump blood to all parts of your body. When your blood keeps pumping faster than normal, your heart muscle isn’t able to push enough blood into the walls of blood vessels (blood vessels). This is why blood pressure is often listed as being the number one risk factor, alongside high blood sugars.

What does a normal blood pressure range feel like?

The average number you get when someone takes their morning pills can tell how much your blood pressure normally ranges. It’s normal to get your blood pressure at a peak and then go down quickly after that. At times in our lives, we need to stay on high blood pressure medication longer to keep pumping enough blood out of our system to the rest of the body. You may need to take blood pressure medication for life if it’s becoming too dangerous to not do so.

What causes my blood pressure to be higher than it usually is?

A lot of unhealthy lifestyle choices, such as smoking, drinking excessive alcohol and stress, are factors that raise blood pressure. Other factors that contribute to increased blood pressure include certain medications. For example, using aspirin for arthritis or having multiple types of medication.

Here’s an overview of other blood pressure-related factors

Constipation or diarrhoea

Constipation happens when food moves around too fast and digestive juices pass from the stomach to the small intestine and are absorbed into body tissues. Excessive use of caffeine for athletes

Caffeine, which helps your muscles burn more fats efficiently, increases the amount of fat in your body. Coffee causes your brain cells to make more energy to release hormones in your bloodstream. Drinking caffeine could lead to a condition called Caffeine poisoning

Cancer of the pancreas

Diagnosis of pancreatic cancer is difficult because it usually occurs in the lining of the pancreas and doesn’t directly affect the organs in the body. Pancreatic cancer usually affects the pancreas and not the entire stomach. Cancer risk increased by about 35% among white males, compared with 23% for Hispanic and 20% for black males. In addition, African American males were diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at twice the rate of Caucasian males.

Stress

Stress is another factor that can increase blood pressure. Regular exercise helps prevent stress for people, but smoking makes it harder for the body to produce it. Smoking causes blood vessels (blood vessels) to constrict. As blood pressure increases the extra stress hormone cortisol from the adrenal cortex rushes up the blood vessels and pushes more blood out through them, causing higher blood pressure. Alcohol consumption can cause headaches, nausea and vomiting.


How do I know when I should start taking blood pressure medicine?

People who meet certain criteria can start taking blood pressure medications. These include blood pressure being a major risk factor that is high if your risk is 50 or higher. Also, if your blood pressure is 200 or higher. People who have already had a serious event involving excessive blood pressure need to begin taking blood pressure medicines before they experience more severe blood pressure symptoms.

Your doctor will tell you what the best way to start taking blood pressure medications is. He or she will recommend whether you should stop taking blood pressure medication for a while or continue it until you develop a better understanding. People who are starting to experience some side effects while taking blood pressure medication need to consult their doctor to understand when to stop taking blood pressure medication.
