The Common Denominator of Burnout

Facebooktwitterredditpinterestlinkedinmail

Your load was apparently greater than your capacity. Have you burned out, do you no longer have any fut, or can you barely concentrate? Do you have a noise in your head or the feeling that your head consists of cotton wool? Do you cry, are you frustrated? You bet you’re burned out.

In ninety percent of the cases, burnout is followed by a non-real fear. It happens to entrepreneurs and managers who often set high standards and find it difficult to accept that they cannot do something.

As a woman, do you have a dual function such as work and family and are you also an informal caregiver? Then you are soon in the danger zone. You get disappointed in yourself, which in turn leads to stress, fatigue, fear of failure, all kinds of other complaints and finally to exhaustion.

Hard to comprehend 

If you are burned out mentally, then your mind can hardly contain burnout. It is going to lead a life of its own and you become increasingly stressed.

“Flip a button”

Not only you, but everyone who is burned out, has the feeling that somewhere ‘a knob must be turned’. If this does not happen quickly, your complaints will get worse! Compare it with a broken leg.

Broken leg

You break it in one go and it is also set in one go. Only then will your healing begin. If you continue to walk with it without having to let your leg get stuck, then it will crochet together.

Put first

It is the same with burnout. First ‘set’ by ‘turning the right buttons’ and then the healing starts. It took you a while to become burned out, but the first symptoms suddenly appeared and got worse.

Unknowingly know

You unknowingly know that you have the ability to change negative or positive in one go. Hence the feeling of that button.

The best approach

A correct approach does not therefore have to take long. Positive change is faster than you think. Unfortunately it does not happen automatically. The condition is that you are motivated and willing to fully commit yourself.

Five blessings from a BURNOUT

Facebooktwitterredditpinterestlinkedinmail

Burnout seems to turn your life upside down in one go. But it is the other way around. Burn-out means that you have finally landed with both feet on the ground … It is not a curse, but a blessing. No blockage, but an opportunity.

Burnout is not a disease or weakness, but a sign of powerful self-healing capacity.

HERE THE FIVE BLESSINGS:

Blessing 1: Burn-out extends your life
Burn-out is a reminder that you have an expiration date. Anyone who is exposed to enormous stress every day will get a stomach ulcer, heart attack, or cancer … And in the end you will die from long-term stress, directly or indirectly, simply. A burnout prevents it from happening. You simply can no longer continue as before. You can therefore greatly thank your body. It does not let you down, but prevents you prematurely dying. Burn-out is a brilliant example of self-healing capacity.

Blessing 2: Burnout brings passion 
Various studies indicate that people on their deathbed mainly regret what they have not done. Of always postponing it. As if life is endless. A burnout tells you that NOW is the perfect time to not postpone anything for you. Take care of yourself. Live with attention. Follow your heart, passion and dreams. Spend more time with the people you love. Because not a single day returns. And, as the Little Orchestra once sang: started long ago …

Blessing 3: Burnout erases your old hard drive
If you get burned out, it is as if your internal hard drive has been erased. You become an empty head. Focusing on something is impossible. Even something as simple as making coffee can suddenly be a huge task. It seems like you’ve lost your mind. Don’t make the mistake of looking for it. After all, you cannot solve a problem with thought patterns that are the cause of it. Life only becomes truly worthwhile if you take this opportunity to change your mindset and thereby your actions.

Blessing 4: Burnout gives wings
Burnout is often mistakenly seen as a sign of weakness. While life is challenging you at that moment to experience your own strength. It is a transformation. You are no longer happy with the life you led. It is a too tight jacket that tears because you have grown too large. Like a cocoon bursts when a caterpillar turns into a butterfly. And this person can fly into her freedom. Burnout is
your moment to spread your wings. It is not an end, but a fresh start. A chance to finally choose what you are meant for.

Blessing 5: Burn-out makes you better at work
Burn-out makes you a better and extremely reliable employee, colleague or manager. Because it learns to focus on what’s good for you. And from there you can also be better for others. You make better choices, discover where your strengths lie and what your limits are. In addition, from now on you will signal it when others enter the burn-out danger zone. And with that know-how, you can greatly help your colleagues and employer.

Entrepreneurs Growth is not that Difficult:

Facebooktwitterredditpinterestlinkedinmail 
 
1. Set goals
2. Achieving goals

Still, many entrepreneurs are going wrong there.

1. No / vague goals
2. Work harder and harder as a strategy to achieve the goals.

Can you NOW list your 3 most important business growth goals for Q4 2019?

Most people can't name anything.
And the people who say something do not set goals, but hope:

More sales
Better customer retention
Larger margins
That kind of goals is like a darts game where the assignment is:

"Throw some arrows in the board."

Quite hopeless. And yet that is exactly the way so many entrepreneurs try to grow.

Vague. Without strategy.

The danger: if you throw enough arrows in the direction of the dartboard, an arrow will automatically end up in the bulls eye once in a while.
The entrepreneur happily throws his arms in the air and shouts, "You see, it works!"

In reality this is the formula for success:

1. Set meaningful and challenging goals
2. Develop a system for achieving those goals

If a goal is not useful, stop it immediately in the event of a setback or temptation.
If a goal is not challenging, you only go half way for it.

Furthermore, it is important to realize that you do not have to work twice as hard to double your result.
If you continuously focus only on what matters most, your output will double without increasing your input.

But there is a step missing in this formula.
And without this step you can achieve goal after goal, and eventually die with regret.

The formula for sustainable success:
1. Set meaningful and challenging goals
2. Develop a system for achieving those goals
3. Develop habits so that you enjoy the goals you have achieved (the missing step)

If you don't have them, Learn them, Develop them, Use them, make them your habit.

Hugging more important than imagined

Hugging does a person good and we owe that to the hormone oxytocin. It is not without reason that it is also called the hug hormone. As early as 1906, scientists saw how our brains produce oxytocin through touch and social interaction.

Later more and more were discovered about this. The hormone oxytocin, for example, is important to get an emotional bond with someone and indispensable in giving birth and breastfeeding children. The hormone causes contractions to be induced for childbirth. From birth it contributes to the attachment between mother and child and together with the other hormone prolactin it provides the reflex reflex needed for breastfeeding.

Crucial role

Researchers from the Weizmann Institute of Science discovered that oxytocin is crucial much earlier than during labor. They conclude that the hormone is essential for brain development of an embryo, because it plays a role in the formation of blood vessels in the pituitary gland.

Instinct

Both women and men make oxytocin. The hormone ensures that we reproduce as a species. Because it is a substance that makes us feel good, oxytocin can be seen as a reward for our brain. We are rewarded for being with others. This causes us to be social beings and explains why loneliness makes us sick.

The release of oxytocin is related to a person’s ability to build meaningful relationships. Hugging your child is an ancient, natural instinct that gives both the parent and the child a good feeling. In addition, it forms the basis of our emotional and physical well-being.

These folks are forcing the technology that mankind have devised and changing it into ways which they can market their services and products. It has altered entrepreneurship has been and has made entrepreneurs a perspective that was essential. In reaching the customers of a business enterprise of entrepreneurship today is worked Nearly half is performed via the Internet due to its way. And as a lot more businesses become globalised, the effect of the professionals will likely be felt.

Extent and the range of the way entrepreneurship is completed will continue to evolve and change as the planet continues to evolve and change. But in the long run, there are still issues on how a company, whether marketed digitally or physically, is worked and how it is financed. It has become a recognized field with a large scope of challenges, while there are still many stories and testimonials about entrepreneurship. Some of the successful and effective entrepreneurs are Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg and Michael Gastauer. They have been able to make themselves known globally. The found denominator that disturbs entrepreneurs is currently starting a company whether it is via invention discovering the right chance for a business break or buying a franchise. For it to workout, all these tasks require appropriate preparation and organization in all its facets. Every entrepreneur is also confronted with funding their business venture. Intrapreneurs are faced with financial issues even in principles. So, unless your enterprise stems from your own pocket’s cash funds is a challenge that requires preparing fund proposals or software presented or to be written. There is a good deal of information that are written about these stages in an entrepreneurial venture that sorts itself too bad from good.

Once past these challenges though, an entrepreneur may anticipate a smooth excursion involving gain. In the event has a strategy that is good, everything should proceed with just mistakes on the way towards their goals. The execution stage seems to be the stage where it will make or break a business. Entrepreneurship today dictates that there are hypotheses that part of the matter is that the people creating the thought and implementing them are two distinct breeds. There is a wide array of skills required that nobody person can have the skills to handle of the functions, to be realistic. The actual talent behind a good entrepreneur is to have the ability then locate a work force that can fill in such gaps and to recognize what they do.

A different way to look at this implementation stage would be to look at just how many different skills are being included in operating a company. When operating a company, it entails sales, advertising, advertising, communications, employees, legal requirements and more. A company which doesn’t have a solid technical basis cannot survive long. Suitable ethics in addition to strategies must be followed in order to become successful from the entrepreneurship now.

KEGEL EXERCISES FOR BETTER BUSINESS IN THE BEDROOM

Facebooktwitterredditpinterestlinkedinmail

Kegel-exercises have been the recommended way for women to strengthen the pelvic muscles for a number of years. Such exercises are often recommended after birth, and are often the first choice treatment for incontinence – but these exercises seem to have positive effects also iregarding sexuality. It has been found that Kegel-exercises also have an effect on men – especially when it comes to sexual performance and sexual health.

In the late 40’s, Dr. Alfred Kegel described what later became known as Kegel -exercises, as a way to strengthen pelvic floor muscles in women. Today, the method is recognized worldwide as the first choice in terms of stress incontinence and genital prolapse in women. In 1952 Dr.Kegel presented a report where he claimed that the Kegel exercises also increased both the orgasm frequency (how many orgasms) and orgasm’s strength among women who did these exercises.

For men, it has long been claimed that strengthening of pelvic and pelvic floor muscles may be successful in treating premature ejaculation (PE), and Kegel exercises may be useful in this regard. However, exercise of special pelvic floor muscles is also found to have a large positive effect when it comes to erectile dysfunction (ED) and impotence.

The kegel exercises are easy to perform. Find the muscles used to control urine flow or urination – and pinch these together repeatedly.

To find the right muscle and get used to “pinching” or “tightening” them, it’s useful to try to stop urine flow when urinating. One common way to do this is to stop the flow, count to ten, relax and resume water drainage.

This is repeated as often as possible during the water drain. In this way, you get a good «contact” with your muscles and get to know them.

The exercises can be done without urinating at the same time, but urination offers a nice opportunity to check that you are using the correct muscles.

Make between 10-20 such “contractions” or “cuts” three times daily, but as mentioned, this does not need to be associated with urination – just make sure you have found the right muscles and use urination to control the effect and that you are doing it in the right way.

The results of such Kegel-exercises for men can be quite impressive. After three months, erectile function significantly improved among the men who performed the Kegel-exercises. After six months, 40% of the men who performed Kegel-exercises regained normal erectile function, while 35% of men who performed the Kegel-exercises improved their erectile function. For 25 percent of men, Kegel-exercises had no effect – and these seem constitute a group of men with a special etiology (the cause of the disease) regarding ED.

Given how simple and effective these exercises are in relation to this disorder wich often have a major impact on the perceived quality of life and wich may lead to depression. For problems such as incontinence and impotence Kegel-exercises should be the obvious recommendation from a doctor, gynecologist or urologist to men and women suffering from any of these problems. Still, these exercises are so easy to perform on you own – so that many a visit to the doctor can be avoided – a minimal or small dedication can lead to great results.

NINE REASONS TO MOVE FOR A WALK

Facebooktwitterredditpinterestlinkedinmail

Image result for walking people transparent

Did you know that the average person like me and you spends nearly nine hours a day sitting? While scientific research has shown that it is not good for you. For example, it increases the risk of high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease, but also of type 2 diabetes. All the more reason to take the leg wagon more often: 9 reasons to walk more today.

1. Good for muscles and bones

First of all, walking is good for your muscles and bones. It makes them stronger and therefore reduces the chance of developing osteoporosis (bone loss).  
Frequent loading of bones makes them stronger and you even build new bone mass. In addition, it is also good for the cartilage, the elastic tissue between the bones.

2. Good for the heart and blood vessels

Walking for at least thirty minutes every day lowers blood pressure and blood cholesterol. It also improves the condition of the heart and blood vessels. The risk of heart problems already falls by 50 percent if people are active for one hour a week.

3. Good for diabetes

Walking or walking every day gives a lower risk of type 2 diabetes. It not only lowers the risk of developing diabetes. Even if you have diabetes, it is good to walk.

4. Good for the brain

For people who remain physically (and mentally) active throughout their lives, the risk of Alzheimer’s is reduced by 20 to 50 percent. Walking is also healthy for those who already suffer from dementia. Walkers are more cheerful and their memory functions better.

5. Good for the lungs

Those who walk a lot increase the capacity of the lungs to absorb oxygen.

6. Good for depression

Walking works against STRESS and depressive feelings. Anxiety disorders decrease by almost half.

7. Good for the night’s rest

Walking and daylight is good for the biological clock, which makes falling asleep and sleeping better. The quality of your sleep will also improve.

8. Good for being overweight

Running well for an hour (5 kilometers per hour) costs around 240 kilo calories. If you walk for half an hour every day, you can lose a lot of weight: one kilo in two months and six kilos in a year.

9. Good for digestion

Moving and therefore also walking stimulates digestion and prevents clogging of the intestines.

By taking a one-off walk, these health effects do not, of course, occur immediately. You will only notice the benefits if you regularly walk and walk. Start today, because what you immediately notice is the positive effect on your mood! So why not start now after you have read this blog.
