How to be motivated to work?

First of all you have to set the right goals, because even the best motivation will not work if you do not clearly understand what you want, or set false goals imposed by society. For example, money or status. By listening to yourself, you may suddenly find that you actually want to hitchhike or volunteer in Africa, rather than spin like a squirrel in a wheel to satisfy other people's demands. So, having set the right goal, we have to flesh it out to make it easier to achieve. If you want to be a businessman, then decide on the particular kind of business you would like to start. Determine your activity, target audience, idea, team, slogan, brand colors, etc. Maybe you want to build a house? What should it look like? How many floors, with or without a garage, basement, sauna, how many rooms?

Bad luck in love is not a sentence.

By working on yourself, you can always change any situation for the better. The main thing is to learn to appreciate yourself and not try to change those around you. A woman can be lucky in love if: ▫️ She loves and accepts herself completely, even if something about herself doesn't satisfy her. She doesn't need a relationship to maintain her self-esteem. She is independent and can take care of herself. ▫️ She accepts others as they are without trying to change them. ▫️ She suppresses neither "negative" nor "positive" emotions. ▫️ She constantly works on herself and takes care of the way she looks. ▫️ She has high self-esteem. She enjoys being in the company of men, embracing them for who they are. She does not need to be wanted by anyone to feel that she is a worthy person. ▫️ She allows herself to be open-minded and trusting with certain people. However, she never allows herself to be exploited.

Have you noticed a beautiful woman is a woman who knows her value?

She acknowledges her value and does not put price tags on herself. Not a woman who loses weight for a vacation, goes through random exhausting detox marathons on the Internet, but one that simply looks after herself. Always. ▫️A woman who does not torment herself with jealousy, midnight brainstorming, but simply ends her relationship forever with those who periodically disappear from her life without saying anything. ▫️A woman who always keeps calm because she knows that she is one of a kind. ▫️A woman who is always happy because she knows that she has only one life.

Battling phone addiction

There are, in fact, some quite effective ways to combat this problem. For example: ▫️Do not take your phone with you to the toilet (yes, yes!), instead put a magazine, a reference book or an encyclopedia in your bathroom - something that you can open on any page and read, while learning something interesting. ▫do not touch the phone for an hour after waking up. Instead, drink some water, exercise, tidy up. Your reward will be your phone. ▫️Before heading to bed, apply some thick lotion on your hands and, without any gadgets, acknowledge the passing day in silence. With your iron will, unsubscribe from at least half of the useless public pages, and instead subscribe to actually helpful and informative ones. This will definitely reduce the time you spend checking your newsfeed - guaranteed!

Subtle manipulations — how do THEY do it?

What makes a good manipulator? ▫️The faculty to make themselves agreeable, worm their way into somebody’s confidence, get under the skin. ▫️The manipulator creates an illusion that they are exactly who you need. ▫️They do not offer you anything, they only take. To you it may seem like their “contributions” are very generous and that you will not be able to live without them. Say you have a job but one that does not substitute the absence of love in your life, what will the manipulator do? Of course, create the illusion of love! You have stability, but no freedom? The illusion of freedom, then. You have nothing at all or nearly nothing at all? Do you know the easiest and surest way to manipulate such a person and make him your ardent supporter? Create an ILLUSION of superiority and dominance over others! This strategy has been applied countless of times throughout history in many countries and cultures.

Don't panic, or how to help yourself cope in a crisis situation.

A panic attack is a sudden episode of severe anxiety accompanied by painful feelings. It is not a threat to your life and health right HERE AND NOW, it is just a result of experienced stressful situations and intense anxiety. How can you relieve a panic attack? Take at least eight deep breaths and eight deep exhales. ▫️Shift your attention to what you are wearing and try to determine the kind of material your clothes is made of, feel it. ▫️See where you are sitting or standing. ▫️Determine what is around you. Any concentration on extraneous things can help you come to your senses. ▫️ During a panic attack, try to limit your movements and, if possible, sit down and sort of 'freeze'. ▫️Talk to someone. Talking to someone else will give you a sense of security and distract you from the attack. It is possible to get rid of sudden fear episodes yourself, but if these attacks recur, it would be a good idea to see a specialist.

Keep going

At some point in our lives, we may realize that the best way to take care of ourselves is to change the depth of certain relationships or end them altogether. This can apply to both love and work, friendship or family relationships. It's true, making changes, setting boundaries in a relationship, or ending it will never be something simple. But there comes a time when we realize that these changes are necessary - it won't work the same way anymore.

What is happiness?

Happiness is the feeling of absolute mental freedom, defined as the feeling of unlimited possibilities. In this state, a person receives an excessive amount of energy, they are simply overflowing with it and because of this they have only kind and pure feelings. The world around us is perceived as a comfortable and safe place, any feelings of threat or danger are gone, you are sending out warm and friendly feelings towards them. This is how a person in love feels, for example, they know that they are also loved, so love and joy overwhelm them.

Emotional leash

Everyone has the right to experience all kinds of emotions and feelings. It would be more correct to say MUST experience. It is considered that there are no "bad" or "good" feelings and emotions. But there is one hitch: extremes. When one's emotions or feelings are TOO strong. When a person becomes fixated, clings to something or someone, she or he becomes actually enslaved, dependent on these extremes and thus people towards whom she feels that. So a phrase like that takes place, "I can't live without him or her," without a child, parents, or anyone else. Slavery is a loss of self. The stronger our leash, the farther away from us people, loved ones above all. How to do deal with it? Respect our own and someone else's freedom. Respect other people's personal boundaries and don't raise your own expectations.

Fear and panic - the vortex principle

Once you get into it, your whole life is sucked into it. Into the vortex goes health, relationships with loved ones, career, self-control, and other things. The common desire to control and analyze everything plays a cruel joke with us in this case. Such a person always watches the news on topics that make her or him nervous. She or he doesn't recognize his or her unconscious mind aimed to be uptight over and over again, to feel pain and horror. This person flips through scary pictures and videos and communicates with everyone on the same topic. His world, according to the vortex principle, narrows down to one specific topic. In order to get out of the vortex, it is necessary to have an enormous reserve of personal energy. To resist with all one's might. The suffering person must have the firm intention to get out of this vortex. The nature of drug/alcohol addiction as well as the addiction of adoring crowds, in fact, is very similar. But it is possible to cope with if you are ready for this challenge.

AI has been taught to predict a person's chance of surviving cancer.

Canadian agency BC Cancer, led by Dr. John Nunez, said it had trained a neural network based on 47,625 cases. And now she, reading the doctor's notes, very accurately predicts the outcome of treatment, advises life hacks from other doctors and helps a lot in the process of therapy.

The first ever planetary asteroid defense test has been successfully completed.

NASA has calculated and rechecked all results from the DART probe's impact with the asteroid Dimorphos last September. The orbit of the celestial body changed by 33 minutes - this is quite enough to move such an asteroid away from the Earth if something happens.

Scientists have learned how to print biomaterials directly inside the human body.

Researchers from Australia have presented a prototype device for 3D printing of living cells directly inside the body. A miniature robot can create biomaterial without major surgery. The new 3D bioprinter allows biomaterials to be directly delivered to target tissues or organs using a minimally invasive approach. This system enables accurate 3D reconstruction of injuries within the body.

Sleep mask improves memory and attention.

A recent study found that wearing a sleep mask can improve cognitive performance the next day. Participants in the experiment demonstrated higher levels of episodic memory and attentiveness. The cycle of sleep and wakefulness is regulated by the change in illumination day and night. Therefore, any light sources such as the sun, street lights and gadget screens can affect the quality of relaxation.

Bioengineers have created extra fingers for healthy people.

Scientists are actively working on the creation of robotic body parts. They can be used for human empowerment, such as performing surgeries or preparing Sunday dinner. The experiment showed that out of 600 people, 98% learned to use the robotic finger within the first minute, meaning they could already move objects as instructed.

Seabirds have a new disease.

Seabirds have developed a new disease in which the digestive tract becomes inflamed due to the constant ingestion of plastic. The disease was called plasticosis. It can make birds more vulnerable to infections and parasites, as well as losing the ability to digest food.

OPPO showed their counterpart AirTag without a battery, which does not need charging.

Zero-Power Tag uses radio signals from cell towers, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth as power sources. Outwardly, it looks like a card, but in the future they promise to make a version in the format of an adhesive sticker. Gadgets that do not need to be charged - the future in which you want to live.

IKEA buffets are experimenting with insect menus.

The goal is to get people to think about how much meat they are consuming and encourage them to consider alternative sources of protein. New mealworm meatballs developed by the IKEA Food Lab. They came up with not only meatballs with worms. Also bug burgers, soilless salad, "green" ice cream and a vegan hot dog. These are all experimental dishes and will not be available in all IKEA stores. But this is a possible future for our nutrition, as the insect world is more environmentally friendly than farmed animals. Sooner or later the world will come to this. It remains to be hoped that it will be edible to taste.
