Motivation and Psychology

🌾 It's All Food 🍏 A teacher of the highest level didn't disdain the work of a farmer. He wrote many wise books and teachings. Once a man, having read all this and imagining himself a seeker of the Path, came to him to talk about lofty matters. "I've read all your books, teacher," said the visitor, "I agree with some and disagree with others. In some of them, I again agree with some parts and don't understand others. Some books I like more, others less. How can this be explained?" The wise farmer led his guest to a large livestock yard, where there were many different animals and feed for them. There he said: "I am a peasant, a producer of food. Do you see those apples and carrots? Some like one, others like another. Do you see the cabbage and pumpkin? Some like one, others like another. Do you see these animals? Some people prefer some for riding, others for breeding, and still others for consumption. Someone loves chickens, someone - goats. The concepts of 'like' or 'dislike' cannot be a common denominator. It's all food." 🌾 #Psychology @Motivation

💰 The Indian in the Bank 💰 An old Indian walked into the bank and asked for a loan of $500. The bank employee began processing the paperwork. "What are you going to do with this money?" he asked the Indian. "I will go to the city to sell the jewelry I made." "What do you have for collateral?" "I don't know what 'collateral' is," the Indian said. "Well, collateral is something of value that can cover the cost of the loan. Do you have a car?" "Yes - a 1949 pickup truck." "No, that won't do," the bank employee said. "Maybe you have livestock?" "Yes, I have a horse." "How old is it?" "I don't know, she has no teeth left to determine." Eventually, the Indian was granted the loan and given $500. 💼 A few weeks later, the Indian returned to the bank, pulled out a stack of money. He counted out what was owed to the bank and hid the rest. "What are you going to do with the rest of the money?" the same employee asked. "I'll put it in my wigwam," the Indian replied. "You can make a deposit in our bank." "I don't know what a 'deposit' is," the Indian replied. "Well, you give your money to the bank, the bank takes care of it, and when you need the money, you can take it." The old Indian thought for a moment and asked: "Does the bank have anything to give me as collateral?"💰 #Psychology @Motivation

WHEN LIFE GETS HARD #Motivation @Motivation

🌟 How to Stop Being Unhappy 🌟 The first step towards enjoying life is to stop poisoning it for yourself. 🌈 A happy life is a building with three dimensions: material, interpersonal, and emotional. In other words, to be a happy person, you need to achieve your goals while maintaining a good reputation and relationships with people, without sacrificing your inner harmony. 🏡 Decide that things are going well for you 🌻 It's not that simple. As the famous French philosopher Alain wrote: "One must want to be happy and make efforts towards it. Standing as an impartial observer with the doors wide open, waiting for happiness to enter, will only invite sadness." It's always easier to succumb to unhappiness—it requires less psychological energy. To prolong well-being, on the other hand, takes effort. Generally, people differ in how capable they are of feeling happy, but some factors are common to all humanity: it seems that evolution favors the development of negative emotions, as they increase the chances of survival of the species. 🧬 Don’t allow yourself to be sad for too long 🚫 Since negative emotions only occur occasionally, are short-lived, and do not disrupt our daily life too much, one might expect them to pass on their own. However, flirting with misery, as was customary among the Romantics of the 19th century, is unsafe, and today psychology is beginning to better understand this risk. 💔 Savor moments of happiness 😊 The best (and most enjoyable) weapon against unhappiness is to derive as much pleasure as possible from the happy moments that fate gives us. A superb vaccine against feeling miserable is to enjoy happiness, striving to make this feeling stronger, more powerful, and vivid. 🎉 #Psychology @Motivation

🍨 The Boy and the Waitress 🍨 👦 A ten-year-old boy walked into a café and sat at a table. A waitress approached him. 💬 "How much is the chocolate ice cream with nuts?" the boy asked. 💁‍♀️ "Fifty cents," the woman replied. 👦 The boy reached into his pocket and counted his coins. 💬 "How much is the plain ice cream, without anything?" the child asked. 👥 Some customers waited at their tables, the waitress started showing signs of annoyance. 💁‍♀️ "Twenty-five cents," she curtly replied. 👦 The boy counted his coins again. 💬 "I'll have the plain ice cream," he decided. The waitress brought the ice cream, dropped the bill on the table, and walked away. The boy finished his ice cream, paid the bill at the counter, and left. When the waitress returned to clear the table, she felt a lump in her throat - she saw neatly stacked coins next to the empty bowl, twenty-five cents. Her tip. 👀 Never judge a person until you see their actions. #Psychology @Motivation
