You have studied what does you happy?
An expert psychologist in the subject formulated me recently the following question:
The last time that were motivated, what was what motivated you?
What did the minutes, hours, anterior days to feel you motivated?
“If you do not remember it now, it treats to agree you the next time that are motivated”, added to continuation the quoted psychologist.
If no it occurs you at all that it motivate you, it thinks in what you desmotiva and the look for his antithesis will be able to help you to find, definitively, what if it motivates you.
Smile is well, but look for the cause, and deepen in her, of what does you happy is a lot of better, so that, doing more than the “things“THAT have discovered that they like you do, exit you a lot of more smiles.
- The prestigious psychologist Martin Seligman differentiates among the pleasant life, the flow, and the life with sense that contributes something, “to something main that you“.
The pleasure gives it to you an ice cream, or a shower of hot water: you enjoy it while you live it.
You go in in flow when you do some activity that likes you that it does that it stop your clock: you do not note the step of the time. You do not note a special pleasure, your brain “does not register” an enjoy special, simply concentrates totally in what you do
The life with sense produces when you develop an activity that contributes something to something main that you. For example it can see in the case of the doctor that cures, or the scientific researcher that is researching some vaccine, or in the worker of a NGO engaged with a noble cause. All they are conscious of the very that are doing to the society by the work that exert.
Logically spend this type of life is what helps you more to motivate you, and to be able to maintain this motivation
- Viktor Frankl explains that it survived to a field of concentration because had a motive to live. The bad is that a lot of people raises of the bed without knowing the why. (Apart from for having to pay bills logically).
(Somebody said that the two more important days of our life are the day that are born and the day that discover the why did it)
