How can I Increase Employee Engagement? (An Executive Coach Shares the 4-Steps)
Cool information thanks for sharing. Find me by searching for Omni Luminous Poetry.
I’m on month 9 🎉
But ngl, i did actually struggle with depression again and find it hard to be motivated when it comes to work. But i still feel better having full clarity on my mind, and my face lost a lot of puffiness in my face
23 days in. Absolutely no discernible difference. A lot of hype videos promise big changes but I’ve yet to see any at all.
I did the keto diet but I was cheating, as I was still drinking alcohol - but drinking things that were still low carb, like sparkling wine. Somehow I still stayed in ketosis most of the time and also ate plenty of green veg/cauliflower/full fat dairy etc and a lot of protein. Anyway, at some point I stopped and gradually slid back into a regular diet. Put all the weight I'd lost back on and an extra half a stone or so!! 😓😓. I liked how I felt on Keto but I feel it's too restrictive for me. Do you think a lower-carb/clean eating diet is still OK? Rather than full on KETO?
Great comment and question. I think diet should fit a persons needs and lifestyle. Some diets become more like a religion which isn’t fun. 😊 I started keto as a response to a sugar addiction (and out of curiosity). Eating clean (ideally organic) is a baseline. After that, using exercise and keeping calories at just under daily usage (and once a week slightly above) is great advice I’ve received from competitive athletes.
@@motivo-academy thank you for getting back to me! 😊
Agree 100%. I've been sober for 13 days. Alcohol crept up to almost daily drinking. At least a bottle of wine most nights. I remember when it was a couple of glasses. The 4-5pm cravings were very strong. Thankfully they reduce after a week and much more now. I don't think I'm quite at the stage of giving up entirely but I'm on the way to doing that and it's a work in progress. This is the fourth time in the last year that I've had some time off drinking- so, it is slowly happening.
Tony Hawk?
I always dream that i just got out of school and I cant find my car in the parking lot and I have to find a way home. I usually end up walking and hitchhiking and meeting other people who try to help me but I never actually make it home. I always get sidetracked by the people i meet. While im interacting with them im always panicking in the back of my mind about the need to get home. Haven’t made it home yet.
The best thing for me was dream less deep sleep 😊
I've noticed that most (if not all) PIP related videos on UA-cam are from the employee's perspective, not the manager's. This is very helpful - thank you.
Last night I had a dream I was driving down an alley, I could tell somewhere close to a beach, when I saw a dog on a leash tied up who looked vicious but the closer I got the dog smiled. I stopped got out and pet him but he stayed still like a stuffed animal, but he was real. I then decided this would be a great place to do some street photography. Walked down the alley got to the corner, where I could see the beach. Down the board walk looked liked town houses. These 2 girls approached me, I started taking their pictures on my basically brand new Sony A7iv camera, when for some reason I put the camera down. When I went to pick it up, it was a totally different camera, which then I started freaking out, "What the heck," Someone stole my camera and replaced with a different camera. When all of a sudden this couple came out of one of the town houses and asked if I needed a place to stay. Next thing I remember all 3 of us are in bed. The same bed. The husband on the far right, me on the far left, wife was in the middle. There was nothing sexual. Woke up in the morning, and there was their son playing with the camera that had been replaced. Then I woke up!! Crazy ha???
What a dream! Also sounds very positive. What were the emotions in your dream? Where do you think you are/were experiencing those emotions in your life? Maybe you started a new job recently?
@@motivo-academy My emotions were amazing till my camera got swiped. I am a UPS driver 20years, for the past 3 years have gotten in to photography. I've always loved photography and videography. I been kicking around the notion of becoming a professional photographer. Maybe the couple was my parents, the little boy was me. I could not pin point where I was..I am also a professional gigging musician singer song writer with a very nice recording studio, but Photography is my new love..For 3 months now I have been on the carnivore diet and I have been dreaming vivid dreams every night.. Crazy...
It certainly sounds as if the dream relates to this decision to move into your exiting new direction as a photographer. There’s tension in the dream between missing the opportunity (the emotion of losing the new Sony camera) and approaching something daunting (the emotion of the scary dog that becomes friendly). Luckily you seem to have supportive people around you (the emotion of your parents and the child). My suggestion is to write down everything you DON’T know about becoming a pro photographer. Then go and find advice and info until you have enough knowledge to make a clear confident decision. Good luck!
@@motivo-academy What??? I feel so overwhelmed right now with emotion Mr Potter from your analysis. Wow!!!! Your advice nailed it.. I had a gentlemen on my route who was building a place to hold wedding receptions, and I told him that I am a videographer and photographer, and he asked me if I had a card. I told him no. I have no experience with the business side yet, and I realized that I lacked the confidence like you mentioned. You have no idea what a positive and up-lifting feeling your words have made feel. I am going to follow your advice, write down every thing I don't know, also have some cards made, and I will keep you posted on my progress. Thank you so much, sincerely Loren Ortiz. P.S. I subscribed to your channel..
@@motivo-academy Just ordered business cards, they will be here in 3 to 6 days, thanks to you, my brother from another mother...
Strange short dream a couple night's ago-- I am the passenger sitting beside my mother who is piloting a small plane. We are flying and I notice the plane's nose start to dive down. I look over and see my mother is either asleep or has had some sort of medical emergency. Her eyes are closed and her head is starting to lean. We are headed straight into the neon marquis of a film theater. Dream ends before we hit the building.
A very powerful dream! Q: What were the emotions in your dream? Where do you think you are/were experiencing those emotions in your life? Maybe the emotion was anxiety and a sense of a situation not being under control?
Just less than 14 minutes ago, I was putting coconut oil on my legs, and I had a sense of deja vu. About 6 seconds later, I realized that it was a dream that I had a few years ago. Possibly 2-3 years ago. The thing is that I've never been in this room until this past month. I've never sat next to a big a/c unit at the edge of a bed, next to a window...in this extended stay hotel. I had the most eerie feeling..
Memory works in mysterious ways with deja vu. The memory is being formed but the sense is that it is being remembered at the same time. Sometimes it can be a sign of stress so take good care of yourself! 😊
The superego was Freud's idea, not Jung's.
Thanks for the correction! Its great to know people are watching. Misspoke in the moment and should have referred specifically to Jung’s ideas of ego and “the shadow” as well as the earlier Freudian concept of the superego. Broadly speaking in more modern practical coaching and counseling terms we are referring to subconscious emotions. I believe our greatest superpower as humans is our ability to project those emotions on visual mediums (dreams and art) - we just need to learn to read them! 😊
I feel Jung 👶🏻 after watching this video! 😉😂
Pun of the year lmao
Excellent I have subscribed to your channel could do likewise pls
Thank you so much sir Elon musk thank you support towards Tesla company and poudestion Tesla thank you Lord I believe in you Lord for the love of faith
Excellent video
Great tips, thanks 😊
I’m having a serious problem trying to quit. It’s a demon
you don't want to be that old drunk guy, who refuses to shed his skin.
No beer in 30 days ! I don’t want it any more !
One day at a time! Sobriety is possible! We've got this!
Very smart ideas! I love using past tense "I used to drink" I feel that it's a negative thing for AA people to be labeled as "alcoholic"
Thank you! I tried AA and that really bothered me
I like this good intentions
been about 3 weeks, day at a time, xxx
Day 17 and feel great!
Great insights! PS: Anna Sawai is such a wonderful actress!
❗️✌️😎👍❕️
Favorite character is Torunaga. Great character, great leader.
Wow! I learned a lot about Japanese history here. I loved the concept of filtering opportunities through the filter of our True North values.
Sugoi desunè!
I'm a year clean and sober today 🎉😊🎉 I don't miss anything about it and I don't have any cravings whatsoever.. It's been easier than drinking because I don't get any of the negatives that comes with drinking.. alcohol is a gutter drug, the sooner you ditch it the better off you will be. Alcohol is a poison to the body and soul so why take poison?
Massive respect! So happy for you 🎉😊 Bravo!
@@motivo-academy Yeah thanks bro! Hope you're powering along..
Thank you for the tip. I‘m going to try using it. I quit alcohol but can‘t quit smoking yet. Now I use the word ‚yet‘, so in a way, I think I can adapt the idea to work with the ‚tenses‘ idea. Because ‚not yet‘ is a time span which will end at a certain point. Thank you Russell, really good advice. I managed quitting alcohol wirh quit-lit, Holy Whitaker‘s „Quit like a woman“ is a gorgeous book. I wasn‘t a heavy drinker but a ‚regular drinker‘. Almost every night a drink to ‚relax‘, at parties and weekends more. Last autumn I started to get annoyed with this. Sober since 23rd December. Now I‘m very happy to be on the ‚other side‘. Take good care everyone, Best regard from Lilith from Germany
Gave up 2010. Best move I’ve made.
What is your diet? Do you eat grains or beans?
Thanks for your question! I’ve been on the ketogenic diet for 1 year. It’s been fantastic for me and followed logically from quitting alcohol and other addictive sugars. ua-cam.com/video/OeUBWi0mk7k/v-deo.html
Same here!!!
I'm very interested by the genetic test. Does anybody know where it can be done ? Thank you
I used a company called GeneLife but I imagine there are a lot more. There’s options on Amazon too. They send you a kit and you send back a saliva sample. Very easy!
Ive seen the exact same thing. Quit alcohol and caffeine. Sugar cravings became nuts.
Brilliant cheers very much a great listen.
What are the course as you do on Udemy please. I am weak to in to not drinking and the change is so profound uplifting and positive. What is extraordinary is that I am no longer procrastinating. I have spring cleaned my entire cluttered flat. I’ve reorganised my music career, incredibly fast and even done a mail out by hand individually 2/7000 people which is triggered a few grams worth of work. I would never in 1 million years have done this. How I stopped is embarrassing I’m afraid I have a tag Put on by the police because alcohol driven my ex business partner’s relationship into a toxic state and I broke a restraining order by texting them. Perfectly innocent but I’m so glad I did because this tag which will alert the police. If I have any alcohol has absolutely been the best gift I could ever have in my life. Yes it’s a comfortable but embarrassing, but fortunately I don’t have a girlfriend or plan to! I tried Alan Cars I’ve tried every type of thing are you can read books about going to jail for drink-driving, but nothing would stop me having a bottle of wine a day to basically unwind my ADHD. I never got drunk and I hated feeling tipsy and depressed, but it was what I felt. The only thing that gets rid of the morning blues and anxiety. Thanks to drinking. I’ve got nothing done and everything was on hold in my career. I’m not recommending getting a police tag, but that’s really the only way I was able to stop. Black and white. I don’t have any advice for anyone except that it seems the only way to stop if you’ve tried everything is to be Truly shaken by an event triggered by alcohol to get you in trouble. E.g. drink-driving being violent or upsetting your children. These things always happen if you don’t get drink under control. Sorry I’m waffling that’s my ADHD. Good luck to everybody. Thank you for this great video
All,,,well said . Thanks
Been off for 4 months now, I have a total different view on alcohol now.
A few misspelled here I noticed, unless it was a " test". Good presentation. You are calm and concise. Thank you!
Wow. There’s not a lot of (any actually) negative feedback in these or comments in other videos. Must be worth doing… Day 2
2/5/84❤❤
