Comment on How do you work hard at something? Please help? by Richard

If you have never had to try hard for anything, then this is a fortunate event for you. Life is full of things that are difficult and take a lot of trying. Sometimes you will not get what you want but you will gain from it in other ways. You do need to get used to trying and this has shown you that. Always do your best. If you do that, you will never have to regret because nobody can ever do more.

Comment on How can I change old habits about losing weight? by contactds1

Hello DDub,

First off, realize that I’m not a physician so the information is a personal opinion.

You will need to get to the root cause of your self-confidence issues, perhaps seeking therapy.

Why do you want to lose weight?
Mine was for health reasons, tumors/cysts. Doctors wanted to cut on me (surgery) and I did not want to go that route.
So, getting back to you..why do you want to lose the weight?
I’m sure you know what it will take to lose the weight, eating right, portion control, exercise.
But unless you get to the root cause, find the motivation, I’m wasting my and your time.

I could tell you that if you don’t lose the weight, that there is a chance you will be plagued with health problems, particularly as you get older, but I’m sure you already know that.
Image yourself at your ideal weight, find someone that has a similar body structure as you do but at the weight and physique that you want to be.
Ask yourself is it worth it to change your life to look that him?
I understand that being in college that the average student does tend to gain weight, I start my Fall Term in a few weeks, so I know.
But as a student you also know what it takes for you to get good grades, pass that exam.
Hitting the books, or what the Brits call mug (studying hard) and saying no to the partying.
The same with losing weight. Saying no to foods that got you were you are now, letting go of your current lifestyle for a new you.
Gosh, I meant to keep this brief (smile).
Realize DDub that you’re worth what it takes to reinvent yourself or to be reborn to the new you.
Take it slow and steady, Eliminate the junk food by changing one bad food for a good one.
Self-determination and self-love..you are worth it.
You have age and time on your side, do it.

A few ideas that most don’t realize in addition to the regular weight loss stuff.
Digestive enzymes, helps digest cooked foods and thereby increasing your metabolism.
Don’t know if you want to go this far but proper food combining will also help lose the weight
The processed foods, sugar, junk foods are pretty much made for you to gain weight, again a personal opinion.
So you’re gonna have to go clean; fresh fruits, vegetables, clean water.
Sorry, this was so long
Wish you the best DDub

I know of a book that can help almost any problem. I've been reading it, and I'm not quite finished, but it's been great helping me realize how to do anything. It's called The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. If you want to see more about it just go to youtube, type in the secret 1st 20 mins and see what it's all about. Hope everything will work out for you.

You don’t have to know what you want to do for the rest of your life – you can just try getting a new job since the business didn’t work out, while simultaneously exploring different options for what you might actually like to do in the long run. I’ve often fallen into inertia when I wasn’t working – I found that having a job and a schedule helped me to accomplish more of the things I really wanted to do in my spare time, so just getting a job for now might help. It also might help to think about things that you want and would be working towards – if you’re living with your parents, for example, you could think about how awesome it would be to have your own place and work towards saving your money to get an apartment.

Go out for a run. Not a long one the first day, just a short one. The next day, do the same thing, go out for a run. But make this second day's run about 10% longer than the one before. Third day, same thing. After 3 or 4 runs rake a rest day. The next day go out longer then ever. Then repeat for 6 months. Still have a problem with self motivation? Sorry, I guess I can't help afterall.

well if i was u i would think of the stuff that i want and the stuff i dont have to try and motivate myself to work for it. and if there is nothing u want and nothing u need then just think 'this will payoff in the long run' and after you work for what ever u want u will feel good.

encourage them, never scold them for doing negative studying. but always appreciate positive work.

u know that if u dont use something, it will vanish. its the survival law of the fittest. darwin. So appreciate good stuff, so that it stays. neglect small faults so that they never stay on mind of kids so as to repeat them.

I think a parent showing genuine interest in their child’s education really helps. If the parent doesn’t care, why should the child? My dad would read a story to me every night when I was younger and I really think that helped me to become a better reader and become interested and excited about reading. When I did homework he would always help out if I asked him to and when I was done he would check it over and try to help me out on questions I had gotten wrong. My parents would also reward us for good grades or improving our grades. That was our allowance. When your child gets older, middle school and high school, then you can start asking them what they want to do in the future, what their goals are. For right now though, just show an interest and that should be enough. Best of luck
