Be All You Can Be-10 Questions For Self Improvement

Written by funker on August 31, 2010 – 3:20 pm

Be all you can be, but it’s not always in the Army. I often see myself as somewhat contented with my life the way things are, but of course it’s hard to think of anything else when where are real issues to be discussed.


Still I aspire for something deeper and more meaningful.


So we’re all pelted with problems. Honestly it shouldn’t even bother or even hinder us to becoming all we ought to be. Aspirations as kids should continue to live within us, even though it would be short-lived or as long as we could hold on to the dream. They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks or can they?


1. What do I really want?

The question of the ages. So many things you want to do with your life and so little time to even go about during the day.


Find something that you are good at can help realize that small step towards improvement. Diligence is the key to know that it is worth it.

Your Road To Self Improvement

2.Should I really change?

Today’s generation has taken another level of redefining ’self’, or at least that’s what the kids are saying. Having an army of teenage nieces and nephews has taught me that there are far worse things that they could have had than acne or maybe even promiscuity. So how does that fit into your lifestyle?

The Benefits Of Hypnosis For Self Improvement

Written by funker on August 28, 2010 – 3:21 pm

Hypnosis dates back to over 4000 years ago and the times of Ancient Egypt. The people had places called dream or sleep temples where the sick were healed. Priests would perform chanting which would send the sick people to sleep and whilst in that condition the person would be healed of their ailment. This, of course, was the power of suggestion at work as a healer.


In today’s world, hypnosis is used regularly on many self improvement programs such as weight loss and stopping smoking. It has also been used as a control method for other situations, for example, thumb-sucking and bed-wetting. One of the reasons that hypnotherapy is becoming popular so quickly is that it does not involve drugs and the patients suffer no known serious side effects.


Hypnosis is defined in the dictionary as a changed state of consciousness normally achieved with the help of a hypnotherapist. Someone who is under hypnosis is usually considered to have deep attentiveness, in intense relaxation and has elevated suggestibility. Many believe that hypnosis is also a means of access to introverted memories, numerous personalities, spiritual visions or recollections of long-ago lives.

Self Improvement- Role of Quizzes

Written by funker on August 27, 2010 – 3:20 pm

Self improvement is everyone’s goal. All of us want to know about weaknesses and strengths. The awareness about our personality, character, thinking style, emotional reactions, can help us improve ourselves.
————————————–
Self improvement is everyone’s goal. All of us want to know about weaknesses and strengths. The awareness about our personality, character, thinking style, emotional reactions, can help us improve ourselves. Once we begin converting our weaknesses into strengths, we are better equipped to reach higher goals in life.

The question is – how to find the weaknesses? Many times, we realize our weaknesses ourselves. Sometimes, our friends and
family members tell us about them. In the same way, quizzes about our personality can help us find our strengths and weaknesses.

Science has developed many tests and quizzes to find about personality traits. But none of these tests and quizzes can be precise. Every theory gets demolished after few years and gets replaced by a new theory. So are the quizzes based on any particular system of any help? Questions are the answers. Human mind has developed over the years by asking questions. Was the sun revolving around the earth or the earth was revolving around the sun? Why things fall when dropped? Why does wind blow? Why do we have day and nights? Why do we get angry? Why do we have emotions? There are so many questions that have hammered us over centuries and with questions, the answers have emerged. The answer is found out only if you ask questions. Let us look at this in terms of quizzing.

What Every Self Improvement Junkie Should Know About Emotion

Written by funker on August 26, 2010 – 3:20 pm

Most people are familiar with the phrase “thoughts become things,” and in a manner of speaking that is true. However, the more accurate way to explain that concept would be to say that thoughts become emotions.

Emotions in turn drive the machine of your life that creates the things that you think about. The fact that emotions need to be part of the equation is easily verified by thinking back to any time in your life whenever you thought long and hard about having or doing something, but those thoughts never manifested into whatever it was that you were thinking about. For example:

? Many people think very often about having enough money to enjoy certain material possessions or experiences.

? Almost all people give considerable thought to weight loss, physical fitness, or their overall health.

? The majority of people also spend plenty of time thinking about satisfying romantic or other social relationships.

However, despite the massive amount of thought that is dedicated to some or all of those things, it is often the case that we do not have the level of success in those areas that we desire.

Hypnosis For Self Improvement

Written by funker on August 24, 2010 – 3:20 pm

People usually think of the “cluck like a chicken” stage hypnosis thing when bring up the topic of hypnosis. This is unfortunate because it closes off people’s minds to the real therapeutic uses of hypnosis.

Hypnotherapy can be used in many different ways for “self improvement.” It can be used to change bad habits and to get over fears. What follows are some of the best uses of hypnosis for self improvement.

Quit Smoking. One of the worst habits a person can have is that of smoking cigarettes. It hurts people’s health in the short term (making them much shorter of breath) and also in the long term.) It’s extremely difficult to stop smoking cigarettes because they are highly physically addictive. But hypnotherapy has been proven effective in helping people to quit smoking cigarettes time and time again. I actually know people in my own life who have been able to stop smoking with hypnosis.

Losing Weight. You may be skeptical about this one but hypnosis is actually one of the most effective ways to lose weight. Why? Bad eating habits and bad exercise habits are what really cause someone to get fat. Those habits are very hard to change consciously but through the use of hypnosis they can be changed subconsciously. You (or anyone else with a weight problem) will be able to lose weight if they make the right food choices and exercise choices on a daily basis.

Get Yourself On The Path To Self Improvement

Written by funker on August 21, 2010 – 3:20 pm

I seem to have lost count how many times I’ve read and heard of celebrity marriages failing almost left and right. Not that I care (and personally I don’t) but, it seems strange that we often see movie and TV stars as flawless people, living the fairytale life of riches and glamour. I suppose we all have to stop sticking our heads in the clouds and face reality.


There are many ways to lose your sense of self-esteem despite of how trivial it could get. But whatever happens, we should all try not to lose our own sense of self.


So what does it take to be a cut above the rest? Here are some of the things you can think and improve on that should be enough for a week.


1. Know your purpose

Focus on Your Mental and Emotional Side to Gain Self Improvement

Written by funker on August 20, 2010 – 3:20 pm

Not everyone believes this but the emotional and mental aspects of a person, when combined, leads to better self improvement.

Emotions love to dominate our actions and reactions, even though we do not want it to happen sometimes. The society often see emotions as a sign of weakness, so people are used to putting them aside and focusing on the rational aspects more and more.

No matter how strict and logical you may be, you will always feel. One way or another, someone or something will get through you.

Positive emotions are a lifelong goal for many of us concerned about emotional health and self improvement. What is more important; the amount of money you made during your life or the times you laughed out of sheer joy?

People tend to put their positive emotions behind their negative feelings. This is one of the biggest problems that people come across during their lives.

There is no clear way to ignore a negative experience and try to replace it with a positive one. Life just does not work that way.
