Self Motivation


I have spoken to many who have ideas and goals but lack motivation to execute them. I have found difficulties myself finding motivation into working towards my goal and Ideas. Things that helped me were various that may only be helpful to me. I found changing the the way eat and what I consumed help me greatly. For me food is important and I find myself looking for taste which man in a healthy diet does not prove to be ideal. Food with taste most often leave you coming back for more and for someone like who eat until full, it becomes a problem. When I am surrounded by the foods that lack taste or that I do not like but have no choice of eating, I eat just the amount needed.

Tasteless foods:
tasteless foods are one way to achieve your goals of eating better (as a start). Keep in mind that after you have completed this part, you then have to learn how to eat slow and limiting yourself. Keeping yourself away from temptation only last but for so long.

Exercising:
Exercising is another great way for motivating self. When you exercise, you improve the amount of blood pumped which helps clean your system not to mention have things moving faster. Exercising is also a way of getting away from the couch. But first you must find something you enjoy doing. Doing what others say means nothing unless you enjoy it and unless you try it, you can't know if you enjoy it or not.

No Sugar:
A great amount of our foods are loaded with sugars. If you look at the contents in your foods you will find two things that are very often there; sugar and salt. Limiting the amount of sugars has great health benefits but also, after you start eating better and exercising, you will notice that food containing high sugars makes you want to just relax and often are likely to shorten (sometimes cease your motivations or want to exercise). Food with high sugars, high fats, and lost of preservatives start tasting like they should. because now your body notice that you are trying to take care of it and in doing so, will assist by rejecting things that are not good for it.


Thinking:
Thinking is very helpful in motivating self. Telling yourself your plans is a first step. Motivations start from one wanting it and so if you are thinking about it you are at the starting line. But don't get warmed up, get your body excited and get all the way to the starting line then turning to the couch. Go for it. You came this far. Every step has a wall. A wall is a invisible field that slow you down and gives you the idea that you cannot do it. If you realize this, you will accomplish plenty. Don't let the walls stop you or slow you down. Every time one has pushed themselves pass the wall, things get a whole lot easier.

There are things I think of changing in myself that when the time comes to change, I find myself unable to. Doing things I want regardless of what people may think is something I am unable to achieve. What people may think has such an impact on my behavior and I cannot seem to shake it. I realized that it may have something to do with both of the culture I was raised in. I live in Africa until I was about six. Status is such a important thing there that what people think has a huge impact on your daily life. It seem sort of barbaric to me that what people think may change your daily life, yes we are social people but we individuals too aren't we? Happy individuals make happy societies. I remember one guy whom someone mentioned how he inappropriately looked at a little girl and from then on he was associated as a pervert. No one could say how he looked at the little girl, no one could say anything except that someone saw him doing so. If you ask anyone, I'm sure no one would be able to say whom saw him. People were very judgmental and I did not remember liking it.
I was also raised in Italy before moving here. There what people think important as well. It is serious that you would not know that there were homeless man in most of Italy. Everyone dresses presentably and the way you act and what you do says a lot about you. Generally, Children are the only ones who get away with doing things outside the norms. Of course there are those who care little if any in all geographic areas but not too many places have individuals be more of themselves that be part of society.

I am always thinking about society but I think it's time to think about self a little more

Yourself Future

Make yourself something that you cannot be and break the barrier your hold yourself in. Think past the moment but think for the moment as the moment  you are in should never pass, it should future. There are things we want to do, things that we are passionate about but we are held back by ourselves and blame social norm. Social norm is not to blame for our  failures. We fail when we do not do what we are passionate about and we sit in everyday life thinking dreaming or our we could be part of our passion.

Make yourself the future of yourself. Start to make who you are going to be now so that you are sure you will get there. Take things out of your way; people, things that will not allow you to future yourself. To get anywhere you must being from somewhere. You must start for if you do not, you will find that your future will cease to exist. See your prior future is where you are now, your prior future related to what you have done and things you have not done that place you in the current state; this time.

Make yourself who you do not expect to be. expectations lead to failure. Those who do not expect cannot fail or feel bad about it because it was not expected. Expecting is what makes people fail or unhappy. Things you do not expect make you happy and things that you do expect but do not happen makes one unhappy. What can you learn from that?

Today I found that I must start to make something that will future me
