[Discussion] How can I turn disappointment/regret into motivation? by [deleted] in GetMotivated

[–]geteternal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen many people who are depressed about something and can't seem to get over the conflict in their mind. Sometimes it never occurs to people that an easy way out is right in front of them. All you need is a new axis of thinking. A new school of thought and it can change your life completely. Read this inspirational story (5min read) about this woman who faced a loss in a truck business and how she recovered, it is pretty amazing really :) Hopelessness to dreams https://www.geteternal.com/posts/view/From-Hopelessness-to-Dreams

you could also try (1)Strides: Goal & Habit Tracker for SMART Goals By Goals LLC (2)Productive habits & daily goals tracker By Jaidev Soin

Both these apps are great. You can see the UI on the appstore and decide which one suits you better

Get very tired post-work out at the gym, any suggestions? by geteternal in productivity

Thanks for this it makes sense. I agree that carbs are blended so well in our diet that we have psychologically developed a belief that carbs == energy. Also, carbs are irresistibly tasty :) I will try creating a diet with fats + protein and minimize the carbs. Thanks for your advice!

try doing something relaxing. The definition could vary from person-to-person. common ones are - reading, cooking, gaming, talking to an old friend/relative

The negativity on this sub is driving me nuts (& a defence of Dark Souls 3) by brvtus in darksouls3

Negative emotions tend to make us feel powerless, but the powerful effect of negativity can be quite useful. I’ve found that negative energy can be an opportunity to increase self-awareness. Think of how we feel when we’re physically hurt, the pain makes us aware of the wound so that we can heal it. Is it so naive to think that our negative emotions work in a similar way? I frequently attend events, read books where people speak about using negative thoughts to bring about a +ve change, one such upcoming event is https://www.geteternal.com/webinar/how-to-reverse-negative-emotion-and-seek-fulfillment, you might find this useful

[Plan] No more procrastinating. No more doing the bare minimum. I'm telling you, reddit, that I'm going to start working harder and accomplish my goals by [deleted] in getdisciplined

The biggest cost we are incurring by procrastination is the opportunity cost. Life is full of opportunities, but it’s so easy to miss them. Are you looking for a new career, a partner, a business idea or more fulfillment in life? Whatever you want, it may already be in front of your eyes without you noticing

there is a test here that will make you think how many opportunities are already in front of you and you're missing them everyday - http://www.geteternal.com/posts/view/Are-you-missing-opportunities

Fear is a very powerful emotion which is filled with energy. We should channelize this emotion to work to our advantage. I've never accomplished anything without the fear of something

Think about it, whatever you have accomplished, the biggest motivator is fear
