I am an out of work Mortgage Broker. In February of 2008, my business partner and I were forced to close our mortgage office. I have looked for work, but to no avail. My son and I have moved out of our home and now live with relatives. We have lost eveything, but we keep on smiling; knowing that God will never leave us or forsake us and that this, whatever it is, has come o pass and not stay. My son and I are positive that this will be over soon and that it is only making us stronger. Don't get me wrong, this is hard--there have been many nights of tear soaked pillows. Maybe, the hardest thing I've ever endured. I will never stop looking for work. M son is a senior now and, I must say, pretty mature for a 17 year old. I will persevere. I now have a home based business and I'm working to make sure that we succeed!!!
Self motivation and positive attitude are almost intertwined. A positive attitude is a prerequisite to self motivation and therefore it is essential that if one wants to stay motivated at all times one should adopt a positive mental attitude http://www.nativeremedies.com/products/mindsoothe-emotional-wellness-info.html.
However, attaining a positive attitude is not easy. It requires you to be in a state of general happiness, which can be attained only if you are at peace with yourself.
Man has tried to ‘find happiness’ for years. But it is ironical that he searches for this happiness in places far and wide while it can be found only within oneself. The real search for happiness starts by looking ‘inside’ and understanding the real purpose of ones life. It is important to realize the happiness is relative in nature and that while some find it in work, achievement and success, others find it in love, relationships and family ties, affectionate friendships and in faith.
It is also important to understand that is one tries to seek happiness in external material gains or even in external manifestations of love from others, there is only disappointment to be found. The main idea is to accept your strengths, weaknesses, capabilities, situation and life as it is. Complete acceptance of the situation leads to a feeling of contentment and happiness at what you have.
A positive perspective towards all events in life can lead to happiness and emotional wellness http://www.nativeremedies.com/products/mindsoothe-emotional-wellness-info.html. As the saying goes, “I was pining about the fact that I did not have shoes, when I saw a man without feet”.
However, all of the above does not mean that you should lead yourself to total contentment and complacency. It is necessary that you dissociate your happiness from the daily efforts that you need to make to make your life better. By all means, set material objectives for yourself and do everything in your scope to make them possible. But do not allow the success of these efforts to rule your overall attitude and well being.
Over time, you will realize that it is this positive attitude and the ability to motivate yourself under any circumstances that aids you in the process of achieving your goals. Optimism can break the dismal ropes of negativity and rationalism and can help you accomplish tasks that otherwise seem impossible. A positive attitude can help you take failure in your stride.
When you are ‘happy’ and have a positive attitude, you do not need to rely on external motivation to achieve and accomplish goals. On the other hand, in the absence of self motivation, initial spurts in motivation caused by external sources, tend to wear off after the initial euphoria.
A spiritual understanding of life, a positive attitude, proper perspective of the events of life can help you achieve a continuous state of motivation. Such a high level of self motivation can stand the test of mood swings http://www.nativeremedies.com/products/mindsoothe-emotional-wellness-info.html, transient depression or failures. In my case this also helped for recovery!
It is hard to keep a smile on your face when in a financial situation. Maybe try to pick up a bible to try to find your answers . You never know what can happen.
It's hard to keep not only being positive but looking that way. I have a hard time trying to keep a smile on my face and laughter in my voice. Those who know me well, know that it's all fake sometimes. But I hate hearing myself talk about the bad stuff. I know sometimes I feel as if I will explode if I don't. Keeping things to myself is not a good thing sometimes.
But I keep on keeping on. Taking things a day at a time, hoping for that miracle around the corner.
What has made me survive through my times of trouble. Is to think positive and give myself the permission to go forward with life. Changing my mind and making myself to think positive is what has made it easier and clearer and help focus on the task in hands.
We all go through that period of thinking of, why am I here? What happened or why is this happening to me? And then we start going in the direction of, it will never work? Why should I keep trying? No body cares?
But this is not positive thinking. This is a period of finding blame or we get caught in a mental loop of negative, negative, negative. When you are in this space. It takes off like a rocket and the next thing you know. You can’t get out of it. You can’t find a door to walk right out of this thinking. There is ways.
First of all, Stop! It! Stop and tell yourself that you can find away. Quite bringing your mind in this are of negative thinking. Think of solution to your problem. Think of what will it take to find away and when you start thinking this way. Positive thinking will start being born or produced.
If you can’t find away yourself, seek help. Talk to someone, read a book, search on the Internet, re-read your solution, write it down. By doing this exercise your positive thinking will start building and your mind will find that positive spot that it needs.
Take one problem at a time. Negative things come when people become over whelmed with problems. By taking a bite at a time or one problem at a time. The positive thinking will come into your mind, slowly but surely.
Don’t be afraid of moving forward. One of the biggest reasons why negative thoughts come in your mind is because we keep being afraid of what will happen, instead of what should happen. This is not they way of going forward.
Now, take a deep breath and you will survive. Things will change. You will start thinking positively but it’s all up to you.
One point I do want to bring up. All of your negative thinking, where has it gotten you? Why are you still in the same spot as you were 1 month ago or 5 months ago or 1 year?
Now, when you were thinking positively, did you see your life move forward?
Which one is better for you? Negative thinking? Or Positive thinking?
What a year. This has been the most stressful year ever. My mother has gone mad, literally. I had to have her legally comitted to a mental hospital. Not a great place but with me about to have a baby and with 2 other kids, I didn't have a choice. I am in my ninth month of pregnancy. We were surprised earlier this year to find out we are pregnant. We weren't having anymore kids but I guess another one was in the cards for us. The economy isn't helping us and our mortgage has just gone up about $300 a month. I haven't been able to work because of the pregnany and my mom, so we are behind to put it lightly. The pregnancy is not covered by our self pay insurance. I am grateful to have insurance but because of our deductible, we don't go when we should. Today I went to the Dr. for by bi-weekly non-stress test. It is to check the heart rate of the baby. My OB-GYN had open heart surgery on Monday. I still haven't paid the hospital bill. My blood pressure is up, so I had to get blood work, which I didn't pay for either. It makes me dizzy. I tried to tell the new doctor that my pressure was probably due to stress but he wants to make sure I am not heading toward toxemia. I finally ate my pride and asked my step-MIL to borrow the money for the hospital. She said I would have to ask my FIL. He is sort of mean and I don't want him to make me cry, so I just couldn't bring myself to do it. I was already emotional from having to ask for the money in the first place. He will most likely say no, anyway. My dad could help me but he won't. It drives me nuts because I never ask him for anything. He acts like I was this terrible child and I wasn't. I was so good. I really wanted him to be proud and I really tried not to embarrass him. He was embarrassed of me anyway. I have always been just a little overweight (10 - 20 pounds) and it drives him nuts. He makes up stories to tell people about how bad we were as kids. Now that I am pregnant and big, he is humiliated. What really suck is, so am I. He acts like he has always had to bail us out. It's not true. I paid for college myself. I have always worked and worked hard. I never asked for anything. Right now, he is on a hunting trip in N. Dakota. I hope he bags a big one. If I wasn't pregnant, I would get a job in a second and work doubles until we were out of this mess. I have been so stressed out and it is showing with my kids. I need to pull out of this but it seems like we have been just scraping along for so long now. I feel like I am ready to give up. Of course, I can't. I have great kids and one coming. I am so lucky, my husband loves me and works so hard, but I feel so helpless right now.
If someone is willing to lend me some cash, please respond. I can pay you back when we sell some property we have. We just reduced the price dramatically so maybe it will happen soon.
I didn't want to bring this baby into the world while I am so stressed out. I hate it for my other kids. I know it doesn't help them to see me like this. I hate being like this. I have always been very positive but this year has been a test.
Hello,to anyone out there who cares.It's been over a month since I discovered this organization ,and decided to make a page of my own.I havent gotten any responses yet.I totally understand that there are a lot of people out to scam and to get over on someone with a good heart.But I'm not one of those people.I really and truely do need some help.I have a seven year old son and a baby due September third.I have no money and I need a place to live by the time my baby is born.I have ZERO help from the fathers of my children in anyway shape or form.Everyday I find myself miserable, depressed,crying and not knowing what in the world I'm going to do.I'm not just looking for a hand out,because I also give when I can,whatever I can ,even though I'm in a bad position.I'm a very smart person with many talents and dreams of what I want to do in life ,despite my circumstances.I just fell upon hard times,and put myself and my child around the wrong type of people,because of loneliness.I just need a boost to get me on my feet(get things that my baby needs,move into a decent apartment,and other necessities for my children and I).If someone could PLEASE help me,I am really in a bad position and don't know what to do. Thanks,God bless
