Health and fitness…

Hello everyone, hope you all had a great weekend. Today I am going to write about health and fitness .

Regardless of what we do in our daily life, a healthy and regular exercise and a physical activity is the path to our health and well-being.

Health can be defined as a state of complete mental, physical and social well-being and Fitness is the ability to meet the demands of the environment.These are the very important aspects for living a healthy and happy lifestyle. These two terms are closely related, it is impossible to achieve one without paying heed to the other.

With the help of proper balanced diet and regular exercise, one can improve his or her health and fitness.

Here are some points to ponder to stay healthy and fit.

1 . Exercise for atleast 30 minutes in a day as it is recommended by experts. If you don’t like yoga or workout then simply you make it enjoyable by dancing, jumping and running with your favorite songs on. Or you can make it interesting by exercising with a group of people ( neighbors, friends or family members)

2 . Don’t forget to meditate for atleast 5 minutes. This will recharge, refresh, relax and calm your mind throughout the day.

3 . Eat a right food. That means you need to have a balanced diet which includes food with vitamins, minerals, proteins , carbs and fats. Avoid oily, greasy ,fried junk foods , as these kinds of foods are only good in taste but not for the health. And always consume food in a proper amount not more or less.

4. Have a healthy mindset because your whole activity and mood depends on your mind. So stay positive and calm.

5. Go for a regular body checkup( dentist etc.)

6. Always address your emotions .You should how you are feeling from inside. If you would not do that it will become reasons for anxiety, stress and depression which can contribute to a majority of health related issues. So try to heal your mind and body from unease emotions by therapies, meditation, or the activity you love to do ( blogging, listening music, dancing etc.) These activities will help you to find solution to the emotional trauma you are suffering from.

7. You should always surround yourself to a positive and good people’s( good people’s are those who don’t bully, try to help others, have a positive attitude, and lacks fakeness) . Avoid and stay away from those people’s who criticize, demotivate, or say negative things about you.

8. Drink more and more water. This will purify and cleanse your body .

9. Never drink and smoke.These things are always bad for our health so avoid .

10. Feel good about yourself, your presence and the way to think. Never self limit yourself.

11. Take a proper sleep for 6-7 hours.

“Exercise not only changes your body, it changes your mind, your attitude and your mood.”

# Stay healthy and Stay fit. 🏃‍♀🏃‍♀

Laughter is the best medicine… 😂😂

Laughter is one of the best feelings in the world that brings so much of cheer and hapiness in life. It really is one of the bestest medicines in the world. Also, whether its a smile or just a slight giggle or chuckle, laughter completely changes the atmosphere and mood of our surroundings. In fact, it makes you feel good and everyone around you will get feel good and positive vibes.

So, Today I am going share some funny jokes and memes . Enjoy and keep on smiling… 🙂😊

Two goldfish in a bowl talking:
Goldfish 1: Do you believe in God?
Goldfish 2: Of course, I do! Who do you think changes the water?

Patient: Doctor, I have a pain in my eye whenever I drink tea.
Doctor: Take the spoon out of the mug before you drink.

A: Hey, man! Please call me a taxi.
B: Yes, sir. You are a taxi.

Self confidence vs Arrogance…

Hi guys. I hope you all are having a productive day.

Today I am going to talk about the two different terms :self confidence and arrogance.

Self-confidence is an attitude about our skills and abilities. It shows that we accept and trust ourself and have a sense of control in our life. We know our strengths and weakness very well, and have a positive view of ourself. We set realistic expectations and aims, communicate assertively, and can handle criticism and trouble calmly. It makes us feel that we are the best version of ourselves and we keep on learning something new without any arrogance behavior. We have the humility to learn.

Whereas

Arrogance is an attitude of superiority expressed in an overbearing ,overconfident manner or in egotistical claims, belief or assumptions. It makes us feel we are the best in the world and no person is important than us. It stops us from learning, thinking that I know it all, I don’t need to understand anything. It is the greatest enemy of self growth. There is no room for improvement.

In these two terms there is a thin line. Self confidence give us a positive thought to be best version of yourself but when a thought changes in our mind that you are best in the world self confidence turns into arrogance. And these arrogance can be disastrous.

So by cultivating the requisite humility to keep our mind and heart open to learning from others we can overcome arrogance. This arrogance behavior can be changed only by openess, be courteous to others, admit your mistakes and be optimistic.

Motivation…

Motivation is derived from the word motive which means desire, needs, wants, goal and motivation is the reason to achieve the goal, willingness, action, and needs.

We can also say motivation is the degree of preparedness , willingness, which energizes the person or an organism to be focused on its motive.

Everyday we need motivation. Without this one cannot perform any action or achieve any goal. Every work require motivation whether we drink water, eat food , read a book or do any kind of stuffs. But these motives are basic like drinking, eating, sleeping and all the daily stuffs , for this we don’t need motivation as our body is working on its own.

But There are some work, or goals, aim, objective,target desires we want to accomplish. They seems difficult to achieve. Sometimes we lose hope, get bored, or irregularities in work or even we give up. So what to do??

First of all these situation only comes when we don’t set a proper goal, or even we have it we don’t get the proper environment.

Motivation only works when our inner voice tells us do.

So to stay focused and motivated here are some tips :

1 . You should know the reason why you want to do that.

2. Take a small step, don’t force yourself as it will only make u feel stressed and repel you from doing it.

3.If you are want to achieve that acquire and investigate about that field appropriately. Have a vision it.

4. Enjoy every moment of your hard work.

5. Approach the task in a new and interesting way.

6.Never self limit yourself.

7.Always make sure that the place you are working should be uncluttered so that your mind will be calm and relaxed. A peaceful and calm place helps you work productively and efficiently.

8. Let the distraction get starve so that you can be focused.

9.You should always keep a deadline for that particular task

10.Dont forget to reward yourself after attaining that task . You can reward yourself by eating your favorite cuisine, or watching your favorite show.

11.Also avoid multitasking as it will only gonna hamper your mind.

12.Do watch some motivational video and songs.
