Adversity is only temporary With Ravin Papiah
In the midst of challenging times, we often think we’re going through the worst time ever. And when we’re in the middle of adversity, we think it never ends. That’s why we always say things like, “my life is over!”
No, you’re not dramatic. It’s just one of our thinking errors. It’s difficult for us to judge a crisis while we’re in it.
In hindsight, it’s much easier. We can look back and think, “I survived that. I will survive other difficult things in the future.”
But when we face illness, financial problems, or adversity in our relationships, we’re quick to think it’s THE END. And once we get stuck in a negative thinking pattern, we lose motivation.
And what happens when we lose motivation? Right, we give up So how can we get over that? How can we stay motivated during tough times? After going through a lot of adversity (personally and professionally) myself, I’ve learned a few things about staying motivated.
I love what Darius Foroux shares:
1. Do something that makes you feel good
“Does online shopping count?” No, It does not.
You and I both know that buying things gives you temporary pleasure. That’s the last thing you need during adversity.
Because if you seek shallow pleasure, you’ll go 60 miles per hour on the Hedonic Treadmill. Your highs will be still high, but the lows will be devastating.
Instead, seek lasting pleasure. Don’t know what to do? Here are a few things I like: Organize an activity with friends/family that cheer you up (avoid negative people, even if they are your family) Spend a WHOLE day reading a good book Go for a long walk or run (more than 50 minutes) Hit the sauna Go to the pool—swim a bit and relax a bit Write about what you’ve learned Start learning a new skill
We need to boost your dopamine. To do that, we need to reward ourselves (again, don’t buy anything). Do something that makes you enjoy life. That’s my standard. I aim for doing something that makes me say, “Man, I love life.”
I can help you to put your desire to work. IF you are willing to join my coaching, whether group coaching or one on one coaching, please e-mail me at [email protected], or watsapp me on +23052507999
