Observations&Reflections #6

My aunt never was an active person that's why I was really shocked when I saw yesterday on Facebook that she is doing since a month at least 10 000 steps per day and she is running four times a week. It turned out that in her work is a sports challenge and all workmates are in competition. This change of my aunt - from inactive and a little bit lazy women to a person who likes physical exercise and is full of life - made me think how motivation can influence us and our lives.
I think that everyone should find a way to get motivated. It is a personal issue because everyone has different needs - one leads a healthy lifestyle because he wants to lose weight another wants to win a competition.  It doesn't matter which area of life it concerns, motivation is necessary to succeed in real life - it helps to meet targets, get through rough moments and also change yourself.

    It's good that your aunt decided to change her lifestyle. I also think that staying motivated is a key factor to sucessful life.

    What has struck me is that physical exercise has such an effect on use - it has transformed your aunt into a person 'full of life'. All these endorphines are worth the effort.

Recently I watched a very interesting talk of Graham Hill who introduces himself as a weekday vegetarian which obviously means that he eliminates meat from his diet from Monday to Friday. This is a great way to reduce the percentage of killed animals and decrease the risk of many diseases. He talks about a common stereotype which presumes that you can be either a vegetarian or a meat eater. In fact, you can just reduce eating meat as he does, if you are not ready to go off with it yet. a culprit The police officer caught a culprit red-handed. sustainably This firm promotes a lifestyle without damage to the environment and presents the way how to live sustainably. to lessen Being a vegetarian lessens the risk of getting sick. https://www.ted.com/talks/graham_hill_weekday_vegetarian

Today I watched an incredibly interesting and inspiring talk of Tim Urban, who talks about pushing off every task that needs to be accomplished by some deadline. He introduces two types of the brain depending on a person - procrastinator or non-procrastinator. In a funny way, he shows how easily we try to postpone every job we are supposed to do by doing every other activity instead of this one. Finally, he presents a "Life Calendar" wanting us to think about what we are procrastinating on, especially when everybody has a deadline. To be honest that was probably the best TEDTalk I have ever seen so I encourage you to give up 15 minutes and watch it! It's worth it! To perplex The teacher gave two tricky answers to  perplex  the students. A dread She overcame her  dread of heights and went bungee jumping. To watch over She was calm because she felt like her guardian angel watched over her.  https://www.ted.com/talks/tim_urban_insi...

Today I watched a video which shows what happens in our body when we swallow the gum. As much as food by chewing is breaking into smaller pieces, gum's form is not changing at all. Still, the muscles of our digestive track remove it in a day or two with other food that cannot be fully digested. However, too many gums can cause damage to health. It automatically clogs the intestines triggering stomachache or constipation. intact She had an accident but happily, her spinal cord was intact . fish out She was looking for her diary in her bag and finally  fished out  it. spit Footballers often spit  on the pitch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_1sVri3b2w
