HOW TO MOTIVATE
YOURSELF: 20 WAYS TO FIND
MOTIVATION
It’s not easy to motivate yourself. If you’re like many people, you know the drill:
• Set the alarm early… then can’t get out of bed.
• Write a to-do list… then get overwhelmed and escape into a Netflix-binge.
• Get excited about goals… then feel guilty for not working on them.

Beyond Time Management: 5 Thinking Secrets to Getting More DoneDan Beverly
The world doesn't need another time management system. It needs a shift in the thinking. 5 thoughts to inspire a different view, reduce the overwhelm, and leave us feeling good, getting things done.
Most of the people nowadays fail to get a job well done in real time or end up with a poor outcome because they just can’t help themselves from procrastinating.
Procrastination is a perfect way for us to get stuck up and yet, many of us keep being totally unaware of this phenomenon controlling and harming our lives. Unknowingly, we always easily create or find persuasive arguments right in our minds to delay the tasks that are at hand.
Nevertheless, you must decidedly avoid it if you want to be productive.
Don’t ever let procrastination take over your whole life. Don’t do it because you can avoid it.
Here are12 effective strategies for you to avoid procrastination and become more productive.
Fitness and health
In the midst of a world that seems to be spiralling into madness, it can seem hard to stay active and healthy. We have become so busy with the day-to-day grind of work, school, social life and all other commitments that we forget just how important our health is to us. It feels so easy and doesn’t require much effort. So what are some tips to keeping fit and motivated? Here are five ideas, from my own experiences.
1. Don’t give up because you’re tired after an hour workout. There is no such thing as too much. I am not going to lie to you when I say sometimes your body can feel extremely sore on the second session but what really counts is thinking about tomorrow and the things at hand. If nothing else, then tomorrow will always be there for me. At least I hope that is. The first couple of minutes are actually quite relaxing; they’re nice to get back into a rhythm. Once the pain wears off you will begin to enjoy some form of movement again. This way you get more done in less time. Even if you think you don’t like your routine, give yourself permission to try different things. What if you want to start boxing? Maybe yoga with Adriana or maybe even just running down the street. When you get tired of doing what works for you, it might be time for you to look at what you may be missing out on while working out. Can you run around the block? No problem! Try swimming laps and taking short runs instead of long runs. Get moving, no matter where you are feeling stuck – in the car, looking at the clock in front of you or maybe, just laying on the couch, watching TV. Just being out there makes your mind feel fresh and invigorated. You’ll find it easier to go out and do something fun and make yourself happy. It has been said that “health is wealth” and sometimes that is true. We get better when we exercise. Workout helps keep our bodies in shape and energised. Not only does the stress drain away, it gives us a sense of accomplishment that we did what we could to accomplish this feat. Sometimes, having something to look forward to makes us more motivated to do whatever is needed to achieve whatever goal we’ve set. Life changes and that means change is necessary. As well as putting your daily goals on hold and giving yourself the chance to relax. Exercise for thirty seconds, then take a deep breath. A good old thirty seconds is all that will matter. Take in one minute worth of sleep and let them carry on until you fall asleep.
2. Never underestimate the power of motivation. You have got to get up every morning and look outwards looking at your surroundings and the people within it. Look across and see where they are going, where they are standing, even if they are only a few feet away from yours. Then return their gaze and see where you may be heading next. Do that for ten minutes (at most) then return to staring at a blank page. Whatever it takes do it. They are right here with you and waiting for you to finish. Whether in your bedroom, on

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Remedy for Procrastination
by Marty Nemko
Everyone knows that ambition is key to success. If you're not naturally driven, acquiring
ambition can feel like an impossibility. While I can't promise I can turn a torpid
procrastinator into a dynamo, I have been able to help my clients see moderate
improvement. And one of the world's top experts on procrastination privately told me,
"Marty, I gotta tell you. After all these years, I've come to believe no one can cure
procrastination."
So with those disclaimers made, here are the strategies that have most often helped my
clients develop more ambition. Might one or more help you stop procrastinating?
Realize that productivity is key to the life well-led.
Most successful and emotionally content people value productivity over pleasure. Indeed,
they cherish the privilege of being able to be highly productive. Of course, where possible,
they choose work they do well, which makes work more pleasurable. Even so, they don't
expect work to be as fun as recreation, but they feel it's a worthwhile tradeoff. So they work,
not as little as they can get away with, but as much as possible without hurting their health
or quality of work. In turn, whether they're a clerk or CEO, they put their heads on their
pillows each night feeling good about themselves, the role models they are for their families
and friends, and that they're not parasites on the world but substantial contributors to it.
Make it fun.
Yes, some tasks are inevitably not fun -- doing my taxes comes to mind, but most tasks can
be done in a way that's more enjoyable or in a way that's less so. Ongoing, ask yourself,
"What's a fun way to do this?" or "Can I game-ify this?" That technique is particularly
effective with fun-loving procrastinators because it doesn't require them to change their
valuing hedonism.
Be aware of the moment of truth.
There's a moment when you decide, consciously or not, whether to do the task or to escape
it by doing something more fun. Try to make that choice consciously. You'll usually realize
that the short-term benefit of avoidance is much outweighed by the long-term gain of
getting the task done and not suffering the results of procrastinating: the guilt, the shame,
an angry boss, damaged career, or personal life -- or simply the feeling that you could have
done a better job if you had started the task right away rather than waiting until the
adrenalized last-minute.
2. Focus on the next one-second task.
We all can get overwhelmed if we think of all the things on our plate. The key is to focus
on the next one-second task. Don't know what that is? Well, that's your next task. Can't
figure out the baby steps? Ask someone to help you. Some people have trouble motivating
themselves to do even a one-second task. It may help to remember that at least two benefits
derive: It feels good to get it done, and it's a baby step toward your long-term goal. There's
often a third benefit: You learn something, for example, from reading that next sentence or
in trying to prevent or fix a problem.
Accept that it needn't be pleasurable.
Sure, it would be nice if you could make all tasks pleasurable, but you can't. It's worth
reminding yourself that you can survive a measure of unpleasantness. When facing a task,
ask yourself if the unpleasantness is worth it? I'm sure Mother Teresa didn't find it
pleasurable to work amid the sewage stench and biting scorpions of Calcutta's streets but
knew the benefits were worth it. Of course, not everyone can or wants to be Mother Teresa,
but do picture the benefits to you, your boss, your family, and society of your doing some
less-than-fun work. The good news is that usually, the task turns out not to be that
unpleasant. Often, once you start, you'll find it more enjoyable than you thought. And if you
try to make the work as fun as possible and get help when you get stuck, you'll usually end
up reaping far more net pleasure than if you procrastinated.
Address any substance abuse problem.
Nothing kills drive like a drug or alcohol problem. Most abusers are unaware that they
have a problem so if you have even a bit of doubt whether you do, be brave enough to ask
those closest to you. And if you do have a problem, please get help. You'll likely be so glad
you did. For some people, family support is enough. Analytical types often do best with
short-term cognitive therapy while feeling- or spirituality-centered people may be helped
more by a 12-step program.
Get the right work.
If, too often, you find work painful, maybe you need more training or to find different
work -- a job you can do well enough so that the benefits of being highly productive
outweigh the pain. If you think that might help you, you may want to see my 21 top career
picks. Or might looking for another career just be a way to procrastinate addressing your
global lack of drive?
Practice.
You've suffered from lack of drive for a long time, so just reading these strategies won't
change you, let alone enduringly. Print out the strategy(ies) you want to try, tape it to your
computer monitor, read it aloud (with expression) a number of times a day, and then force
yourself to use the strategy, again and again. That's how to maximize your chances of
developing more drive.
