No way, because a success diary can be a powerful tool. Although there is a wide range of prejudices surrounding the diary today, reality speaks a different language: It has long been known that icons such as Albert Einstein and Charles Darwin as well as successful entrepreneurs such as Richard Branson were big fans of diary writing.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-1a5e6108-7fff-9056-4f15-bdd7be7206f3"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The reason? Very simple: Our everyday life is becoming increasingly fast-moving and there is often a lack of the right place and the right time to reflect on what has happened and to observe one's own development in different areas of life.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Above all, smaller successes and milestones that we achieve in everyday life often disappear from our memory after a few days without being documented.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It is precisely these small achievements, which can be booked almost unnoticed every day, that are important building blocks on the way to our goals.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">After all, we achieve big projects by consistently winning the smaller battles in everyday life.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A so-called success diary offers the ideal opportunity to record exactly these events.

For this very reason, there are numerous variants of the diary today that go far beyond the well-known classic - the notebook with the blank pages.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">There are now meditation diaries, sports diaries, pain diaries, dream diaries, in short: diaries about everything that we want to document and observe over a longer period of time.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">success diary is also characterized above all by the content</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> that we record in it, because: As the name suggests, the success diary is about big and small achievements, positive experiences, moments of happiness, and pleasant experiences in everyday life.

They also want to communicate with each other. There are also mice, a keyboard, a desk lamp, or game consoles. Today we will show you 12 cable management tips so that your desk does not mutate into a cable repository.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-59b2150b-7fff-8e5e-d0c2-f6596d1d2884"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Tangled cables hinder us.</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Not only that tangled or hanging cables are a constant tripping hazard. They are also constantly in the way. With every movement, a cable is caught and pulls some device with it. In the worst case, the expensive monitor crashes onto the floor. Or the cable is pulled and the connection tears off. Then you can stop working or gambling and think about how best to get it repaired.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The work is also hampered by the fact that thousands of small things disappear in the cable clutter. While looking for the USB stick that just fell down, we find all sorts of things, but unfortunately, the tiny stick remains as if swallowed up by the earth. When rummaging, we move the cables so roughly that, see above, something falls off the desk with a crash.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Cable clutter costs.</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It costs nerves anyway, but hard cash is also lost. Not only that devices and connections are constantly broken when the cable is involuntarily pulled again. The cables themselves also break sooner if they are not properly laid and are constantly in motion. This then takes time to find the error. The troubleshooting could not only have been avoided but is also so time-consuming due to the poor cable management that you are wondering at the latest at this point why you didn't take care of it sooner.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition, due to the poor cleaning options, it is not necessarily particularly pleasant to check the tangled cables for errors.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">That's why cable management is important</span><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/NaWdMcd3OKIdmDmD9WrsJVu5wSUJw9uq-64yukX_cz2sYudulDcpQhBs8GCx-p-ZttOEDI7aJ2KYkqNYey2ZkVP8vPFIE4_FyZA7Ln9QkHRu3_kvPeKsnOI-t69Aa2M2MKLx7iRM" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Do you want to work and play or deal with troubleshooting and repairs?

Planning and anticipating cable management</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Even if every desk is structured differently and you don't yet know which devices will be added in the future, you should give some thought to the future.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Even if you only start with a laptop and a mouse, you can already think about where there might be space for additional devices and how the cables can be routed most effectively.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Typical additional devices that almost everyone sooner or later acquires are, for example, an extra-large monitor and a keyboard. Both are inexpensive to purchase and therefore popular as supplements. They make many activities easier. The place of the two devices is more or less predetermined by their function.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">But a printer or an external hard drive is also necessary if required. The printer in particular is usually so large that there are usually not many options for choosing a location.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you take this into account during your planning, you will hardly have to put any effort into laying the cables later.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">2. Use technical tools to bundle cables</span><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/xUYg6rLIjcEaU62thlkMhH_aP0mSaYxADqVxgUGGZUjhLGuqvloMtvAosiHqDwaodY9S123-g3j5vtDEuUyVeTqesiY6T-jS6CJdsQDxdS6L3oIkbl_QKWcmDsGDqhCzB4AhWuxS" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The simplest and cheapest tool is a </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">resealable cable tie</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. This is simply a small plastic strap with Velcro. This allows multiple cables to be easily bundled and also easily removed again.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Extra tip: A cable can be detached very easily with two cable ties in a row. First, remove from the first cable tie, then close again. Then loosen it from the second cable tie and also close it again. This will prevent you from falling out and having to rearrange all the cables.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Cable ties are not only good for bundling individual cables. You can also use it to fix the bundle to your desk yourself.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Cable hoses are also available as an alternative to cable ties. They work similarly but have a wider band. Thus, the cables are well packed over a longer length. Another advantage is that they are well-protected.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Try to use European products whenever possible. They only cost a few cents more, but they last longer and most importantly, they smell less like cheap plastic. The smell of chemicals in the workplace does not necessarily promote concentration.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">3. Use technical aids to bridge long distances</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Now and then longer distances have to be covered. Loose cables lying around harbor the corresponding dangers. Bundling the various cables in a few places is often not enough. A better solution is needed. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In this case, cable ducts</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> have proven their worth.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">These cable tunnels are made of plastic, aluminum, or stainless steel. Inexpensive plastic ducts are sufficient for simple applications. They can often even be laid without drilling and can be easily attached with double-sided adhesive tape.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you want it to be more stable, then grab metal, which you can then lay securely with dowels and screws.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If the canal has running paths, make sure it is flat enough that no one will trip.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">4. Use fewer cables</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You can now connect the mouse and keyboard via Bluetooth. The printer is controlled via WLAN and the Internet router no longer requires a cable that runs through the entire apartment.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you have long distances to the bridge, you can use the repeater. However, it halves your WLAN rate. If the wireless WLAN is not enough or if you do not want it to be halved, you can use so-called Powerline adapters. The Internet is fed directly from the router into the socket via cable and can be tapped at any other socket using an adapter. Then the cable only has to bridge a small remaining distance.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This saves you from having to lay cables through the whole apartment.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">5.

Some have extra openings where the cables can then disappear cleanly. If not, you can consider drilling your own hole. But you have to decide that individually.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">There are attachments for cable bushings on the market that have another advantage for your cable management in addition to a better look. You can hide a not so perfectly drilled hole quite well. These attachments are also available with recessed, retractable sockets or USB ports.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">8. Use technical aids such as magnetic holders</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The principle is simple. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A magnetic clip</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> that attaches to the cable is designed to stick to a magnet attached to the desk.

Use technical aids such as cable trays</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A cable tray hangs under the desk and catches the cables that are routed from above, down from the desk. This means that the cables do not hang down and are bundled and routed over a certain distance. This makes vacuuming under the desk easier. In addition, the cables do not get in the way, are practically invisible and individual multiple sockets also catch them effortlessly.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">These are sometimes included on more expensive desks.

This means that all kinds of auxiliary constructions can also be attached to cable management without having to drill holes straight away. The double-sided tape can also be removed again. in contrast to the drilled hole.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">11. Use as long cables as possible</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Especially with height-adjustable desks, the cables should be long enough so that the movement of the desk does not become a test of strength between the electric motor and the cable connection. One end of the wire harness should be firmly fixed. The other must be able to move with the desk. This requires length and guidance.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">But longer cables are also generally an advantage. The variability and design options of good cable laying are inevitably greater with longer cables.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">12. Check from time to time whether everything is still properly laid</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">More and more will be added over time. Devices disappear, new ones are purchased. Clean cable routing is not always taken into account when installing them.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So take some time every now and then to reroute all the cables. Continuous improvement is easier and faster than having to tackle the issue after a long time or in an emergency. You always want to play and work without interruption.</span></p></span></span></description><link>https://www.guestpostmag.com/2022/02/12-cable-management-tips-for-your-desk.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Abdul Basit)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjlz2WX5AxzEHLe0HrrqJTZqZzRZXN0zOqnggUs25cX2LtE4D05bgHW7wmD8pV_w7soCDQAAaMONbwGeLOyLzSsVAOFku7MMelT6bkIOPmFCEkU6g5BMW-JpB7A1F-EMhcBL1VZcWs5emBEI_-oqZ_5JiMKG8pvSRgjUXhnt1lEUdsu53Oe15gaZfr6Rg=s72-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total><georss:featurename>United States</georss:featurename><georss:point>37.09024 -95.712891</georss:point><georss:box>8.780006163821156 -130.869141 65.400473836178847 -60.556641</georss:box></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285023311125807176.post-7028648423785820810</guid><pubDate>Sun, 10 Sep 2023 16:22:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2023-09-10T09:22:58.835-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">ARTICLES</category><title>Watch Together: How To Watch Vdeos on Facebook Messenger Together With Your Friends</title><description><p><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjbIKIQagpRlvoITPNQm6KRq8d8MxDCrRI_6RQee17mxEePA7aHLFhp7hW-MLrNswlXq5m0I0DgL0XQbAA5bkZt-gqNgfEwYy-A16TCLBLBToVI_quh9ZiyGXc_hVWcAXKXCeUO7Qg7hNZb34YwDPoIBPIgLcHTEFfc6Azf64KDZV-i7YzhvTzQpP2Mgg=s16000" /><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">The current situation demands a lot from people. The current pandemic has forced many people to stay at home to protect themselves and others. But the desire for social interaction is a basic human need and so alternatives are in demand at this special time. The additional function Watch Together was recently implemented in the Messenger of the social network Facebook and should enable people to organize a kind of digital movie night.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-2745fbc7-7fff-e3d2-e82b-28d43af3893a"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It is said that up to 150 million video calls are made and 200 million video clips are sent daily via Facebook Messenger.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So if you take a closer look at these numbers, then the Watch Together feature seems to be the perfect solution for the current situation.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What exactly Watch Together is, how it works and how you can best use the function is explained in the following article.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What is Watch Together exactly?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Not only because of the current pandemic but video conferencing has also become an essential part of our lives. This not only affects the world of work but also your private life.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Because meeting several people is currently difficult. Instead, many people communicate via video portals such as Zoom or Skype in order to maintain contact.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Facebook developers have now come up with a great function here, which was also implemented in Facebook Messenger: the so-called Watch Together or on other platforms also called Watch Party.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Roughly speaking, Watch Together is a kind of digital movie night. If you opened a video group chats in Facebook Messenger, you can enable the feature.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The desired video clip is then played, which all group participants can follow and see each other at the same time.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This way you can interact with the participants of the chat and you can exchange information about what is happening in the video.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The perfect solution for creative people</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One group of people in particular benefits from this function. For example, musicians can present their latest pieces of music via Messenger and thus receive live reactions to them.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A normal video call via Messenger allows up to eight people to play a video or piece of music at the same time.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If a larger group of people is planned, the so-called messenger room is a suitable alternative. This even offers space for up to 50 people, who can all see the respective video at the same time.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Watch Together function is therefore perfect for celebrating the premiere of a new music video or something similar virtually, or for playing it to your loyal fans and observing the first reaction directly.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">But this function is not only associated with great added value for musicians. For example, joint workouts can also be carried out via the messenger rooms.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This is particularly interesting for fitness trainers, as they are very limited in the current situation. Working out together with several people is easily possible via Messenger – even from home.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Extremely popular with young people</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Watch Together feature has been extremely popular with younger participants since the beginning of the pandemic. Streaming services such as Hulu, Netflix, and Disney + implemented this function in early 2020 and it was very popular.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The advantages compared to Facebook Messenger are clear. The streaming providers have a much larger selection of series and films here.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition, the function can also be used on the television, while the Messenger function can only be used on the smartphone.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, this does not detract from the growing obesity of Messenger. The only observation here is that the target group tends to be limited to younger people.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This fact results from the fact that most younger people do not have their own laptop or computer and consume the short clips on Facebook on their smartphone anyway.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Accordingly, significantly more younger people use the Watch Together function of the messenger.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">How does Watch Together work on Messenger?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">First, you have to download the latest version of the messenger or update it.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Since the Watch Together feature has only recently become available, this is necessary. You then open a normal video call with your friends.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you need more than the eight people allowed for your video call, you can open a messenger room.

There you will first be offered some suggestions for videos that you can watch together with your conference.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The videos are sorted into categories from which you can then select the appropriate video. In addition, self-uploaded videos and clips that you have already viewed are also displayed.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Watch Together gives every user the same access rights.

Normally those who suffer from migraine put aside all daily activities to lie in bed with the lights off and preferably without noise.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-7df8f412-7fff-8166-3a02-f2397347e7d1"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.9575; margin-bottom: 11pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sometimes the pain intensifies for hours and the only thing that could relieve it, according to science, would be to take some painkiller to feel better. However, taking medicine frequently can harm or create other health problems. Fortunately, there are very effective natural home remedies to combat migraines.</span></p><h2 style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.9575; margin-bottom: 11pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: large;">1.

If you prefer, buy a whole piece to chew the root, you can even prepare a tea of ginger, honey, and a few drops of lemon. Take it as many times as you want and you will notice that your discomfort will decrease significantly.</span></p><h2 style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.9575; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 11pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 11pt; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: large;">2.

These help supply enough oxygen to the brain, fighting migraine. Just add one of the sachets of any of these tea flavors to boiling water and drink throughout the day.</span></p><h2 style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.9575; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 11pt; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: large;">3.

All you have to do is lie on your bed and place an ice bag or towel over your head for a few minutes until the pain subsides. This will help improve blood flow and you will feel relief.</span></p><h2 style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.9575; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 11pt; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: large;">4.

According to a clinical </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">study</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> conducted by the Mashhad University School of Medicine in Iran, the smell of the essences has analgesic effects, helping to reduce headaches.</span></p><h2 style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.9575; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 11pt; text-align: left;"><span style="background-color: transparent; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-size: large;">5.

In a glass of water, mix half a teaspoon of salt and the juice of half a lemon, and drink it twice a day.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.9575; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 11pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What you should know</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.9575; margin-bottom: 11pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">American Academy of Ophthalmology </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 12pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">confirms that migraine is caused by serotonin (a chemical used by brain cells), which causes blood vessels to be affected, reducing the supply of oxygen to the brain. So these home remedies will be effective, since they all help reduce inflammation, favoring circulation throughout the body. Do not hesitate and see for yourself!</span></p></span></span></description><link>https://www.guestpostmag.com/2022/01/tips-to-relieve-migraine-without-taking.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Abdul Basit)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEheRTjunNZqVF-uqzORAeqYzAfmKGSguRUrSAqdK2sGneE1xCzweCSmG1MSnyt83xUlzZfW9WVibcGtBkClqR1DRZ1Qsk1AmfganQlR8nYLPZ4hZj34EqxNgBex0KGLXNLYtoCBqwKpud_w7vklTLFv0YiDBTjHhVPNouMajhd0UXxREmASCAM78EEbFg=s72-w640-h304-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total><georss:featurename>United States</georss:featurename><georss:point>37.09024 -95.712891</georss:point><georss:box>8.780006163821156 -130.869141 65.400473836178847 -60.556641</georss:box></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285023311125807176.post-9040902450692604211</guid><pubDate>Sun, 10 Sep 2023 16:18:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2023-09-10T09:18:30.594-07:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">GAMING</category><title>The Best Time-Consuming Games For Quarantine</title><description><p><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEik4U9IeCvpoXEIi3jhMKocK5Dwq3xL1Pf4tjovunMvS53A-uoVIXcrdmNcnqmH7rgq9-1qFHDREo-Uj1b1Lh-EAkNze80MN0aycL9BVmFpO3G9SpFRPk0k7DAL0JXBhv5jp6dTmcnkBsvT8k_Q28wKsANr33LtIdhUMUqDPCuuZ69Lz8lICV3eFDlBUw=s16000" /><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">School is canceled and all office workers are stuck in the home office. All the newly gained time needs to be put to good use. Sure, the real work and homework have to be done. You can always save yourself some time somewhere.

At least at the neural level. However, it is influenced by the way we perceive or focus. For example, most training beginners who train in the gym hardly notice the corresponding target muscles that should be controlled at the moment. They are already so busy performing the exercise that they hardly build muscle.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A research group from the University of South Carolina Upstate has taken on this problem to improve the lack of muscle-mind connection in strength training beginners. For this purpose, the lat pulldown was used. After the first set, subjects' perceptions were changed to ignore the biceps and focus more on the target latissimus dorsi muscles. In fact, increased muscle activity of 20 percent was measured in the area of the target muscles.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In order to address the target muscle as well as possible, a strong electrical impulse must emanate from the brain. This activates the motor nerve cells and finally the target muscles. The more intensively the target musculature is controlled both mentally and muscularly, the more likely muscle growth will occur.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Scientists at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio have confirmed that there is an effective muscle-mind connection (MMC) without actually doing strength training. One study used targeted mental training to stimulate muscle growth in the arms. The subjects exercised exclusively mentally for 14 days without lifting any weight. The mere idea of the study participants that the biceps are maximally contracted during the mental exercises achieved a muscle growth of 13.5 percent.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.6682926829268292; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What effects can you expect?</span><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/lrAaS7lfv_sv5E0yp9Y131ShPr72r43OidJmPEOuAefz87nCu7Dp3XnxxusViqAbOnZITtVxa0p3oohi-BqXrgA6R3GAisuMivDOjicJTn-o8opITdEzGBApmFtWWLFp2mOPtlOu" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The previous explanations have made it clear that beginners and athletes who are stuck in stagnation can (again) achieve success in strength training with the MMC. It is virtually the basic requirement for effective and efficient muscle growth.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, the disadvantages of not having an MMC are not insignificant. The investment in time, effort, and money only pay off to a limited extent. Inadequate training results over the long term can ultimately lead to the termination of training.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You should therefore start practicing the MMC as early as possible. It leads to more motivation, fun, and joy during training. This makes it easier to experience a flow and you feel physically and mentally balanced.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It should be noted that the MMC has proven particularly effective in strength training. With explosive workouts, which are often offered in the course framework, the focus should be on the execution of the movement, since the MMC is less effective here.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.6682926829268292; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">How can I effectively build a muscle-mind connection?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You should perform each exercise in a targeted, slow and controlled manner. Muscle sensation of the target muscle should be present at all times. If you are unsure, try increasing the tension in the target muscles with your eyes closed. The rule of thumb is: the higher the tension in the target muscle, the better it responds to an exercise.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A reduced warm-up set can also lead to an improvement in the muscle-mind connection. To do this, you choose a lightweight and specifically train the connection between your head and muscles by concentrating on the muscle feeling. If you do a real training set now, the MMC will adjust more easily. Incidentally, isolation exercises are also excellent "muscle mind catchers" because the target muscle can be addressed more easily.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you still have enough physical capacity, it is also advisable to temporarily interrupt or vary an exercise. If you are doing 10 leg press repetitions, you can, for example, slow down the last 3 repetitions or hold the muscle tension for a moment at the end of a contraction (e.g. at the end of the extension movement in the leg press).</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A real insider tip is the posing. Experienced bodybuilders and strength athletes speak of an optimized muscle-mind connection when e.g. B. the target muscles are specifically tensed in front of a mirror and held for a few seconds. For example, professional athletes who want to go on stage have certain mandatory poses that they need to practice. They are defined by the German Bodybuilding and Fitness Association, among others.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.6682926829268292; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What are the benefits of the muscle-mind connection?</span><img alt="Muscle Mind Connection" height="416" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/mKk6ABU1iMWFpFmG1RXp3GscWDKLSO_R6WY6PbWhPerV_JpV81BJ8wgqc82vJKq0PBlVP_iTAAvR6S5y6aCIL2j9yq1CINiUICHI55NM_DndUrZous_Rco8uY624s8pOppdb0Mdi" style="font-size: 27.3333px; margin-left: 0px; margin-top: 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;" width="624" /></h2></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><ul style="margin-bottom: 0; margin-top: 0; padding-inline-start: 48px;"><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 23pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 11pt; padding: 6pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Muscle coordination:</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Insufficient coordination of the muscles means that only 20-25% of the muscles' potential strength can be used.

In order for the muscle-mind connection to develop evenly, you should train both "the weak side" and with free weights such as dumbbells and barbells. In addition, you should use the less used half of your body more in everyday life.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 23pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 6pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Hyper irradiation effect:</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> The more muscles involved in a movement, the more power you can develop.

Only the forearm muscles should be tense. Now take a little break and repeat the exercise with one crucial difference: Your posture should be upright and stable. Now tense as many muscles as possible that you can only tense (“whole-body tension”). Tighten your legs, back, shoulders, upper arms, etc. very tightly, and then direct the entire body tension through your forearms into your hands and grab it now.</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-style: italic; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The increased power that you developed and felt is described as the hyper irradiation effect. The individual muscle forces of the other muscles have been transferred to the forearm muscles. If the muscle-mind connection is particularly well developed, this is reflected in extraordinary hyper irradiation. This will increase your muscular and physical stability and reduce the overall susceptibility to injury.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 23pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 6pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Fun, motivation, and passion:</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> “If I go, I go.

As a senior manager or CEO of a company, you are responsible for many people and at least one brand name.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Managers must be extremely disciplined, always keep an overview, have absolute leadership skills and constantly keep up with the times and innovations.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Of course, CEOs and managers are not lone wolves. You have a team of top professionals and experts around you who you have to rely on at all times. Many managing directors and managers earn very well, but also work an above-average amount of time.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">2.

As a doctor, you will have little chance of great success just because of the money. Even the course, which often involves working on corpses, is not for the faint-hearted. Everyday work in clinics and as an intern can be nerve-wracking and mean several round-the-clock shifts.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">3.

However, studying law is no guarantee for a great career. You have to be better than the average of other lawyers and always stay on the ball to get top salaries. As a lawyer, you and you must specialize in one or a few areas of law that are personal to you.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Being a lawyer means constant training. Legal situations and laws are constantly changing. But even if you're not that career-obsessed and are looking for a solid job, you've come to the right place. However, the condition is that you can present yourself well, communicate excellently and have a sense of justice and cultivated discussion.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You do not necessarily have to set up as a self-employed lawyer after completing your law degree. Many large corporations employ their own legal advisors in the field of commercial law, who also earn top salaries of around 75,000 dollars per year.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You can also achieve top earnings in the civil service: the highest-ranking public prosecutors receive a salary of around 100,000 dollars per year and have a bombproof job.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the other hand, you would be solid and secure as a notary. They also always have work and work closely with government regulations (seal contracts, handle real estate sales, etc.).</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">4.

In sales management or sales management in large commercial or trading companies, in insurance companies, or in the IT industry, you can earn top incomes of between 90,000$ and 100,000$.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You need a degree in economics, top grades, a sense of a career, and the top. Then, of course, you must have an excellent knack for selling and placing goods and brand names. You also need skills in personnel management and absolute team spirit.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">5.

If you make it to IT management, you'll get 88,500 dollars a year, as an SAP consultant you'll get an average of 65,000 dollars and as a talented backend developer, it's almost 69,000 dollars.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; font-weight: 700; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">6.

As a captain, you already earn around 110,000 dollars per year. As an old hand in the job or with a top airline from the Emirates, you can "fly-in" for annual salaries of up to 250,000 dollars.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In the aviation industry, not only do the pilots receive exquisite salaries: even aircraft mechanics or air traffic controllers earn an average annual income of around 77,800 dollars. The work is varied, interesting, technically demanding, and offers more than enough jobs worldwide.

One way to attend to it is to focus on the precise moment you are living, and anchor yourself to it.

Neither a great look nor a loud voice hides industry-specific deficits. So it's learning, learn, learn. Does the motto also apply in your company: Don't complain, is enough praise? Then make sure that your achievements are noticed!

They show that you feel connected to the company and think along with it. However, you should not apply these too confidently, but make sure that you do not get the reputation of a know-it-all.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Make yourself indispensable by specializing and taking on tasks that few can do.

Of course, the clothing must match the job and, above all, the company’s dress code. Nevertheless, you can combine </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">shirts in different ways, for example, impress with great cuts or noble fabrics.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Accessories that do not stand in the way of occupational safety are permitted. You probably know that when you talk to friends about a party and can't remember the guests, features such as stylish glasses, the diamond on the tooth, or particularly elegant shoes then serve as a personal description.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It is of course important that you are not allowed to bend. You have to look authentic and feel comfortable in your clothes, hairstyle, and accessories. Otherwise, it will affect your self-confidence and instead of being the guy with the cool glasses, you'll quickly be the guy who's always tugging at your tie.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">There are actually </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">image consultants</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> who will also go shopping with you and advise you. They are often more honest than the sellers. But your whole appearance also determines what colleagues and superiors think of you.

But it's not like that everywhere. So don't be afraid to get active yourself. Ask for talks, ask for interim references! At the latest when asking about interim references, supervisors will scrutinize you more carefully, because they usually associate this with a desire for change and thoughts of emigration. If the company wants to keep you, you will certainly be offered interviews and maybe even a higher salary.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">By the way, regular interim references also tell you whether your position has changed, your achievements are still appreciated, or whether you have made careless mistakes. Routine leads to negligence, that's completely normal. And if you don't feel appreciated for your work, a certain amount of frustration can also cause commitment to wane.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Not only feedback from the superior is important, but also from the closest colleagues. Not everyone has the ability to take criticism and very few can take it as well as hand it out. Dissociate yourself from those who whisper behind other people's backs and engage in conversations to find out what's bugging co-workers or what changes they would like to see made.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">know your goal</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Of course, standing out at all costs is not the solution either. You need to know your goal in order to know what steps will bring you closer to it. If you lack the knowledge for a better-paying job, do further training. If you are aiming to move up into management, find out about the courses for advanced training. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Many training measures can also be funded by the state</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> independently of the company. But there is nothing wrong with asking the boss whether he is applying for funding for a qualification.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Try to find out what the boss values and shines in those areas. If the supervisor likes order, but your desk is chaotic, he will also notice it, but negatively. So try to be extra tidy, extra punctual, etc.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What companies always appreciate is working on a good image to the outside world. If you have families with children in your area, try to get your company to host an open house, showcase the company, or sponsor a local club. This gives you good press, promotes your image, and guarantees you attention, not just from your manager.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Share yourself and share with others</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Job is job and schnapps is schnapps, they say. That's how it should be. Nevertheless, one or the other detail from the private sphere can also be exchanged between colleagues and superiors. Unusual hobbies are remembered, but also unusual burdens such as social honorary posts, caring for grandmother, or sporting achievements attract attention, which can then be transferred to the job.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In general, communication is an important topic in every job. With good rhetoric, you can highlight your achievements without overshadowing others. Try to connect the members of the team by specifically asking and motivating reticent colleagues. Supervisors also notice something like this positively and they recognize the basis for personnel responsibility and employee management.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Practice positive communication and consciously choose positive words. People prefer to be around positive people than negative ones.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-family: &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Conclusion: Standing out on the job must be closely linked to professional competence, otherwise all actions will backfire. This is why further training is an important point in professional life. But you can also move into the focus of decision-makers and boost your career with image, personality, and commitment. If you exaggerate, you will be perceived as a self-promoter, basking in your success. So your motto should be: Less is more.</span></p></span></description><link>https://www.guestpostmag.com/2022/02/this-is-how-you-draw-attention-to.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Abdul Basit)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhiRsnZvIsibtKDtnwnj1ELJpX3D9wMOjApSvl4s-IfacO1bh4waw670TzCzvq8x5bpBG1RI1lkszaFrTGE-yb1J1Fk5qMX2KQ1N3giKoUkMH3z9UVGVsmCaemGPjtbmIi1YHdylwdqlvvBJa_UMGmZEEN0s7_1GcWVmWQMJK1Y-paJwA-Ad5Mr94XqDw=s72-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285023311125807176.post-7809545968970637733</guid><pubDate>Thu, 17 Feb 2022 14:27:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2022-02-17T06:43:04.016-08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">BUSINESS</category><title>How People Pay Today - Digital Payment Providers on The Rise</title><description><p><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiKmZpFpRvCgRpAr8ASCSZHIPcVWfPISb0MFhmCN5rWY21R0WBGaJOedb8HFbTjB_s4cDsrifz4L15K3mHCn8QKJeJz7Y8uNGNd1a_OMEGnpsDVKDHcF5pISb67gGicctJKdnrLWvEa6JrSYcGHSRe1gi1h8syv8HO8GN67oWULe9bBiXB7XsjF9tZJbw=s16000" /><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Digital payment providers are on the rise. While in other European countries paying at the push of a button instead of with the ball in hand has been the norm for some time, it took a little longer in Germany before many people dared to make digital payments. However, people in this country are now increasingly paying digitally via the Internet. Not without reason. After all, the digital payment of bills, products, memberships, etc. offers a number of advantages.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-2a42056c-7fff-aa15-b3e8-422cf68a8857"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Amounts are transferred in real-time, annoying cash and small change do not have to be lugged around and the customer has his expenses clearly arranged at a glance. In short, digital payment providers are growing for a reason. This will remain the case in the years to come. The market is currently exploding in this regard. But which digital payment providers are there and what do you have to consider if you want to use them?</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The world of payment providers – a brief overview</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition to the pioneer among digital payment providers, namely PayPal, there are many other providers that are integrated as a payment method in online shops on the Internet, among other things.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">On the one hand, there are providers such as Trustly, Klarna, or Paysafecard, while on the other hand there are still classic options for paying on the Internet - such as payment via instant transfer, credit card, or direct debit.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition, new providers from large Internet giants, such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Amazon, are increasingly coming into focus.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">1.

Other Payment Providers</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As PayPal became more and more successful, competitors in the market also ventured further and further. This includes, for example, Klarna, Trustly, or Paysafecard. Why are the alternatives interesting? Providers often have their own strengths and weaknesses. In addition, today there are no </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">online casinos, for example, where you can pay with PayPal</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. The payment service provider has discontinued support. However, this does not apply to all alternatives.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The three mentioned competitors of PayPal have their peculiarities.</span></p><ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-inline-start: 48px;"><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 23pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 11pt; padding: 6pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Trust:</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> The digital payment provider Trustly works in a similar way to Sofortüberweisung. Ultimately, your own bank account is linked to the payment provider Trustly in order to be able to carry out transfers quickly and securely. Finally, Trustly takes care of the transfer in real-time in order to be able to process the payment process as quickly as possible.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 23pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 6pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">&nbsp;</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Paysafecard:</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> The great advantage of Paysafecard lies in a special feature that distinguishes this payment provider </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">from others</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. Paysafecard can be seen as a prepaid payment card. This means that no account or credit card information has to be passed on to the company. The Paysafecard only has to be loaded online with an amount of your choice. As a result, you can pay anywhere where Paysafecard is accepted. The advantage in terms of security: the seller does not receive any relevant data about the buyer.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 23pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 6pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">&nbsp;</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Klarna:</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Klarna is not only a digital payment provider but also a bank. Klarna works with a number of large companies, which means that users of this service can pay for their goods almost anywhere. The advantage: Because Klarna is also a bank, buyers of goods can, for example, also pay online in installments.</span></p></li></ul><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 20pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">3. Apple Pay and Google Pay – the new generation</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The traditional digital payment providers are now joined by large companies that have discovered this branch of the economy for themselves. Apple, Google, and Amazon are now active with their own digital payment methods. Here is an overview:</span></p><ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-inline-start: 48px;"><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 23pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 11pt; padding: 6pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Google Pay:</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Google Pay is already available in Germany. Ultimately, the provider works similarly to PayPal. However, the difference lies in the fact that it is necessary to use a credit card that comes from a bank that Google Pay works with.</span></p></li><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 23pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 6pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">&nbsp;</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Apple Pay:</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Apple Pay only works on iPhones or the </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Apple Watch</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. This makes the payment service only attractive for users of these products. With Apple Pay, too, the payment service must be linked to a credit card from a bank that cooperates with Apple itself.</span></p></li></ul><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Ultimately, the following applies to both Apple Pay and Google Play: both ensure that quick and uncomplicated payments are now also possible with smartphones. But there are also differences. Of course, these relate primarily to the possible applications, but </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">also affect other areas</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">.</span></p><ul style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-top: 0px; padding-inline-start: 48px;"><li aria-level="1" dir="ltr" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; list-style-type: disc; margin-left: 23pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre;"><p dir="ltr" role="presentation" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 11pt; padding: 6pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Amazon Pay:</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> Works similarly to the two payment services mentioned above, but is limited online to products that can be purchased from Amazon.

Although the chances are not too high, a big coup is still possible. There are numerous examples of people making millions from gambling. Online casinos in particular allow maximum winnings thanks to slots with a progressive jackpot. For a good start, the casinos offer attractive bonuses such as a </span></span></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Book of Dead free credit</span><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">.

After a comprehensive analysis, he began to implement his findings at the roulette table in 1984, and with success.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Within the first six weeks, he won the equivalent of around 35,000 euros. But that was just the beginning. Kaisan travels around the world and visits well-known casinos. In Australia, he won almost 250,000 euros in just three days. Only a short time later, in Copenhagen, he achieved his highest daily win to date: 126,000 euros. According to his own statements, he has won more than 4 million euros within five years.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Kaisan is a so-called boiler watcher. After throwing the ball, he is able to determine a sector with 9 numbers in which it will most likely land. This technique resulted in Kaisan being banned from many casinos. With such a win, you can certainly get over it.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Blackjack pro-Ian Speakman</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Who does not know the film </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-style: italic; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Rain Man</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, in which Dustin Hoffman counted the cards at blackjack as an autistic person? British professional gambler Ian Speakman may not be autistic, but he has mastered the art of card counting. This gives him a mathematical advantage over the bank. After the introduction of the first shuffling machines, he analyzed them carefully, which again brought him profits at the blackjack tables. He earned more than a million US dollars a year.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Speakman mainly played in Germany, Austria, and Holland. From 1983 he was denied entry to most casinos in these countries. After several lawsuits, the ban has since been found unlawful.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Dan Bilzerian - The poker pro</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">American Dan Bilzerian is one of the most well-known poker players and social media influencers. The poker pro with Armenian roots has more than 32 million followers on Instagram alone. He got into poker through his brother Adam. However, the beginning was difficult. In the first year, he gambled away his money completely. He then managed to turn $750 into $10,000. According to his own statements, he increased this to $187,000 in Las Vegas.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Bilzerian was particularly successful in 2013 when he reportedly made over $10 million playing poker. These amounts cannot be checked because he mostly plays privately. Dan Bilzerian's notoriety is primarily based on his social media activities. Here he likes to show himself with celebrities, models, and Playmates. His closest friends include Mel Gibson and Steve Aoki.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Sam Farha - passionate poker player</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Ihsan "Sam" Farha was born in Lebanon and discovered his passion for the game at an early age. As a kid, he won $5,000 playing Pac-Man. He moved to the United States in 1970 and graduated from the University of Kansas with a degree in business administration. In 1990 he started playing poker professionally. Just 6 years later he became world champion in Omaha Hold'em at the World Series of Poker. For this, he received prize money of 145,000 US dollars.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Farha made his biggest win to date in 2003. Although he lost in the Main Event heads-up to a previously unknown player, around $1.3 million was a pleasant consolation prize. In the poker scene, Farha is considered an unpredictable and aggressive player. He always succeeds in intimidating his opponents. He has over $3 million in live tournament earnings during his career. One of Farha's trademarks is the cigarette hanging in the corner of his mouth, which he never smokes.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Casino lucky guy Archie Karas</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Greek-born Archie Karas made casino history in the 1990s. With $50 in seed capital, he made his way from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. There he borrowed another $10,000 from an acquaintance. In just three hours he had tripled the amount and was able to repay the loan with interest. Over the next three years, his gambling fortune increased to a whopping $40 million. He mainly made his winnings with poker and craps.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Unfortunately, the story doesn't have a happy ending. In 1995, Karas gambled away all of his winnings. He challenged all of Las Vegas' poker elite to play him heads-up, at a limit often as low as $10,000 to $20,000.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Elmer Sherwin - Winning millions with jackpots</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">WWII veteran Elmer Sherwin won a $4.6 million jackpot in 1989 at the Mirage Casino in Las Vegas. He was playing the Megabucks slot which was being launched at Mirage Casino at the time. Achieving such a profit once in a lifetime is a dream for most. However, Elmer Sherwin managed to do the near-impossible. In 2005 he scooped the Megabucks jackpot again at Cannery Casino &amp; Hotel. His winnings this time: an incredible $21,147,947.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">With that, Shervin has won around $26 million from his visits to Las Vegas. He donated a large portion of his winnings to charity before passing away in March 2007.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Jon Heywood – Millionaire in the online casino</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">26-year-old soldier Jon Heywood from Cheshire, UK, became a multi-millionaire overnight. He had deposited £30 at an online casino and was playing the Microgaming Mega Moolah slot at 25p per spin.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">After about 7 minutes the big win came. With one spin he cleared the amount of 17,879,645.12 euros. This meant a new world record for jackpot winnings in an online casino. The previous high for a Finnish player from 2013 was exceeded by around 18,000 euros.

Worst of all, no one is safe. Actually, you just wanted to have a career and be successful, but everything has its price. But there are ways and means how you can start your career without depression from the job. All you have to do is protect your psyche and possibly make some changes in your life. However, if you are already feeling signs of burnout, we strongly advise you to see a doctor. You should understand the following tips for prevention.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-ec9eb366-7fff-aab1-20b8-1aff0c4d0993"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What actually is burnout?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">First of all, burnout is nothing more than depression caused by exhaustion. The bad thing about this disease is that you don't even notice it at first because it develops slowly. Basically, the hormone metabolism in your brain is disturbed, which throws the stress hormones out of balance.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You are particularly at risk if you are a real workaholic, work in a social profession or in care or you have a stressful private life.

It is therefore important that you observe yourself and your body closely so that you can react quickly enough. If you are </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">already noticing certain signs</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, you should consult a doctor.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So that it doesn't get that far in the first place, you should definitely take precautions. The following tips can help you with this.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Proper handling of stress</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Stress, no matter where it comes from, can be one of the main causes of burnout. Dealing with stress in a healthy way can help you stay relaxed. Try to find inner peace. This works, for example, with mindfulness exercises.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This includes, for example, meditation or yoga. When you practice mindfulness, you go through the day more calmly and are less likely to suffer from stress and disturbing thoughts.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">All in all, a healthy lifestyle with a good diet, regular breaks for you, enough sleep, and sufficient exercise will help you. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You can also use CBD oil</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> to help you rest better and to increase your general well-being.

However, this gives you the balance you need to be productive at work. If you notice that you are working too much, constantly working overtime and your vacation account is also overflowing, then you should give yourself a little more time for your private life.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A healthy work-life balance gives you time to yourself when you are not thinking about work. Of course, this means less stress and peace for you. It's time you can spend with friends, family or as a couple.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you still have too many vacation days left, then drive away and separate yourself from your usual surroundings. This also allows you to distance yourself from stress and disturbing thoughts. In the end</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, your employer will benefit more</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> if your private and professional life is more balanced.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Avoid leisure stress</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Stress at work combined with stress in your free time - can be a dangerous mix. Having too many after-work commitments can only add to the stress and should be avoided at all costs.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Retire from work</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Taking a break from work is also a way to reduce stress. For example, you have the option to work part-time. However, your employer can best help you here in order to discuss all the important details with you.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If none of this is an option for you, </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">changing jobs might</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> help.

This is because today we have to move less than we used to – so we remain in fixed positions longer.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-442ff301-7fff-af71-1d31-6a3cbcb2faac"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This can lead to a curvature of the neck, especially when working or playing games at the desk. During the hype surrounding the Harry Potter novels, this phenomenon was known among students as "Potter Neck" - readers just stared down for so long that their necks stiffened.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you're a serious gambler or spend a lot of time hunched over for other reasons, it's more likely to happen. Constantly looking down at the smartphone can also lead to a "nerd neck". Not only can this neck position appear unattractive; it may even be painful or have other unpleasant consequences. We did some research and put together a few tips on how to deal with a nerd's neck.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When do you have a nerd's neck?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">First, we clarify what this ominous "nerd neck" is supposed to be. The expression is – of course – colloquial and not a medical diagnosis. Therefore, a doctor will use different words. The terms “mobile phone neck” or “head position stretched out” are used synonymously.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Generally, the terms mean a forward-leaning posture of the upper back, neck, and neck. You can imagine that after the spine, the neck and neck bend forward instead of continuing in a straight line. It doesn't even have to be extremely pronounced; since many people work sitting and inclined, very few people have a "perfect" posture.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, sometimes it gets extreme enough to be noticeable or even cause pain. Do you suspect that you have a nerd's neck – then we have a self-diagnosis option for you.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">self-test</span><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/JzozL1Urn4m2CnpIyZojwhlW6oRlSz9sPy5iHb8G2cRZ7wMB-yZ-SsTFsAykLcaKv5GQCY-SwBvdfN7I7wNV18U-V-L_xRy_xoSbNkuev1iBsfCHuV5bp4k_oNRv3WRkNpeTzmV9" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Find a wall and stand up straight against it. The feet should stand directly on the wall and the shoulder blades, in particular, must touch them. If you tense your body now and notice that there is a lot of air between your neck, neck, and back of your head and the wall, you most likely have a nerd's neck. Even if the angle between the wall and the body parts mentioned seems unnatural to you, you could have a problem.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you experience pain and numbness, the solutions below may help; However, we recommend that you consult a specialist.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Get rid of nerd neck - the theory</span><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/kWJlulXoLQjq-SWunq0i4hDinFWz2i638DXrqxC46RxWVoEUYV1M_11Aj-zT_fd5MUxPr_qz2WTYHJGCTfJi-6qFpMyeiUXSGUnhmb9fX-1HchwFm6nVc42YGkqHWcsDdo8xJATE" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you've "diagnosed" yourself with incorrect neck posture, we have good news for you right away.

This can lead to chronic pain if the posture is too unnatural and crooked. Numbness in the upper body is also a possibility in extreme cases, but this occurs less frequently. If you noticed the problem yourself, others have probably noticed it too. And, honestly, a crooked neck is not attractive.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A few exercises are enough to get rid of a nerd's neck. They are not entirely without effort, but unfortunately, medicine rarely tastes good. The more effort you put into it, the more success you should get - if the execution is right.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The exercises are all aimed at strengthening the neck muscles and getting the upper body used to a straighter posture overall. This is, so to speak, the "factory setting" of the human being.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The exercises also help to get the neck used to a straight posture. This means that the straight part of the spine should no longer meet a kinked neck, but continue as straight as possible.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You may have heard of the "cervical spine" - the human spine is S-shaped, but only in certain places. The neck is not one of them.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Get rid of the nerd's neck: 3 simple exercises</span></h2><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 5pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">1. Stretch your neck muscles</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In this exercise, you put yourself in the same position as in the little "self-diagnosis". You stand with your back directly against a stable wall. The shoulder blades should remain leaning. The upper back remains tense.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Then comes the hardest part: you take a pose with your neck, neck, and back of your head that comes close to the goal. The neck is as close as possible to the wall, the neck is stretched.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You adopt this attitude for a certain period of time. The training involves tensing the muscles. You can e.g. B. pull through regularly for 1 minute.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">2. Chin bends</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Chin bends are a real fitness exercise. You perform these on the floor, so an exercise mat or other surface may be useful. Here you can do 3 x 10 repetitions of the exercise.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">After lying down straight, bend your legs slightly (45° between the back of your knees). The back touch the ground as completely as possible, for which it should remain tense. Then you “nod” your head slightly upwards. If you do this exercise, you can imagine that you want to get your nose closer to the ceiling.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">But beware! The neck must not move but must remain still. The nodding movement comes from the neck, which should be straightened and strengthened. This can be difficult at first. Here it is important that you consciously pay attention to the execution and reflect. This is how you effectively reach the right muscles.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">3.

Are you sitting B. with a hunched back at the computer or looking down at your smartphone, you can set a timer. After 60 minutes, you'll be reminded to do some stretching exercises. You can even do it while sitting.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One possibility: You take a stable sitting position, straighten your upper body and stretch your arms upwards. You hold this position for 30 seconds. Then you stretch your back and neck by keeping your upper body straight and stretching your arms backward at a 90° angle. You hold this position for 30 seconds.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Conclusion</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A few regular exercises are enough to improve your neck posture.

Unfortunately, the notorious housing shortage is still extremely acute in many student cities. A place in a dormitory can therefore serve as a good alternative to your own apartment without completely using up your own budget. We'll tell you which tips you absolutely need to know before you move in, so that life in the student residence can really get going.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-95bb8d18-7fff-5a1d-d57d-49ba1a83acd0"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">How do you get one of the coveted spots?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The early bird catches the worm or a place in the dorm. So don't take too long to search. Because even the largest halls of residence only have limited places. The sooner you have secured your place, the sooner you can look forward to life in the student residence without any worries. After all, having to look for a place just before you start your studies means sheer stress. Nevertheless, you should not rush to sign a rental agreement, but rather check the different halls of residence carefully. Because these differ in their location, equipment, costs, etc., in some cases significantly.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Living in a dorm: You need this</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You are moving from your usual environment into a new apartment. Of course, you can get nervous and worry whether you have thought of everything. But the one thing you absolutely MUST NOT forget is earplugs and bedclothes. Because if you've had a good night's sleep, you can deal with every other problem. With your earplugs on, you can sleep like a baby no matter how noisy the housewarming party next door is. If you want to do something for your reputation, it is best to take 2 packs of earplugs with you. After all, you can give this pack away to fellow students who have been suffering for a long time. Believe us, they will be forever grateful to you and will certainly return the favor with at least one thank you a beer.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition to these essential items for survival, you also need the following things: Posters, curtains, or photos of your loved ones make even the dullest room in the dorm pretty.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A drinking water soda maker saves you the hassle of lugging around bottles and your own kettle provides you with tea and, if all else fails, with instant soup. Even your own coffee machine can be worth its weight in gold if you have the caffeine boost right at your desk during stressful learning phases. This way you avoid chatting up a roommate on the way to the kitchen.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Also, if possible, bring a comfortable desk chair, as you'll likely be spending more time studying than you'd like. Therefore, make sure you have a good posture and thus prevent back pain. A desk is also an absolute must if it is not already included in the furniture in the room.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition, a bedspread and a few small pillows are worthwhile, transforming your bed into a comfortable sofa for you and your guests during the day. You should also bring your own kitchen utensils and store them in your room. Although there is the basic equipment in most dormitories, this often leaves a lot to be desired in terms of cleanliness. With your own plates and a pot etc., you are on the safe side.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Don't be alone in the hustle and bustle</span><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/wn34ZkQSfEYbdF48ikbJSCtfPq_3zRg4P09vMg10H04ZISMzknv-BEeNkVwpzwdOQqF36as2v7Vk160dbh4tHfS6Flym2S9xUzrWjE8Q6mSRpKZ7WzejwxkUJsvHeyaAwoX9GyXH" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You're probably already feeling a little jittery and wondering the best way to connect and make new friends. After all, you quickly feel alone and lost in a student residence, especially at the beginning, also or precisely because it is teeming with people of the same age. So don't let yourself get lonely right at the beginning and introduce yourself to your new neighbors and roommates. If you're a little nervous, that's no problem at all, after all, that's what all newbies do. A good way to break the initial ice cream is to buy out a case of beer or home-baked muffins. So you automatically get into conversation with your new roommates.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"><b>Create a cleaning plan</b></span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As soon as you arrive at your new home, you quickly realize that you are now responsible for many things that have taken care of themselves at home. In order to fairly distribute activities such as cleaning, cooking, etc. between all roommates, it is advisable to draw up a cleaning plan. It is best to ask directly in the first few days whether a corresponding plan already exists. If not, you should create it together. This way you avoid turning your apartment into a chaotic battlefield.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, don't raise your expectations too much when it comes to cleanliness. After all, very few halls of residence are characterized by their incomparable cleanliness. Therefore, be lenient, even if your roommates have not shown the highest motivation when cleaning. After all, starting a fight over every little thing isn't worth it. However, you shouldn't put up with everything and approach roommates who are too sloppy to clean. Don't criticize the person themselves and don't get bogged down in clumsy accusations. It is best to speak to the person concerned in a particularly friendly manner. For example, you could also have a beer together in the kitchen during the conversation. That takes the edge off the situation.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Everyday life begins</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In a student residence, you have to get used to a completely new routine in your everyday life. For example, if you used to be able to leave the house in just a few minutes after getting up, you may have to change your mind now. Because now it can well be that your roommates occupy the bathroom in the morning and you have to wait. Therefore, plan enough time in the mornings, especially in the first two weeks of the semester. You should definitely not be late for the first lectures. Finally, all organizational questions are clarified at the beginning. Don't miss this. Therefore, be particularly disciplined at the beginning of the semester. After all, you can still do enough morning strolls in the following weeks.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Set Limits</span><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/13vEeBEjIPw_dDEdTKXwB4av63EWDljzAEPBw41BJL5D_nyQ796QZrbWAYBiqvvYZb_FY3KhGgNyNU00LRA1RXgGLecSJYmTq4DGMEipFnblLlzKdg9As_ImEldkAaSwHdg0ZzBi" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In a dormitory, you can actually find a party with nice people at any time of the day or night. Take advantage of this offer and enjoy your life in the student residence to the fullest. But always be aware that you are a full-time student and therefore the parties must not get out of hand or affect your performance in your studies. So set yourself limits and sometimes skip a party. After all, every student needs a break from time to time. Under no circumstances should you be afraid of being considered a bore if you skip a party. After all, no one can always be on the move and even the biggest party fans will sooner or later treat themselves to a break.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 23pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Give your flatmates freedom</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you get along particularly well with your roommates, you might want to spend every free minute with them. You might even get a little jealous if they have a lot of other friends. It's best to shake off those thoughts quickly. After all, you already live together. You can't spend every minute together there. You also benefit if your roommates know a lot of people and ideally bring them to a nice dorm party at your house.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A point that actually goes without saying: Don't prevent your roommates from making their own decisions and standing on their own two feet. After all, you're not their parents. So it's none of your business if your roommate's party too much and neglect their studies or go on dates halfway through college. Don't snoop on other people's privacy, because you don't want your behavior to be commented on all the time either. Also, don't spread tales about who has and hasn't stayed with your roommates.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We hope that our tips will give you a good start to your new life in the student residence. Even though there is a lot to think about and many difficulties when living together in a dorm, the best thing to do is to look forward to one of the most formative and hopefully happiest times of your life.</span></p></span></span></description><link>https://www.guestpostmag.com/2022/02/living-in-dorm-best-tips-and-tricks.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Abdul Basit)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjR6DahXl1ivwbmrvn0KgYONgrhabMGFfsJ66iuW1xiodVKbAA5Jncy8enKYsCpYyONvZZcAlEzR-mHBHKIjB9_D5NnZhVDqcnzG0p3z2l2w8Ie5iIF0jVx8s6b_YvQgEAQuxQNS0ABtFJrtsKWalv1c2m295mizhzvKu0GX1tLa_FxVTbXlGW2LYHGxQ=s72-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285023311125807176.post-9192343154249118654</guid><pubDate>Wed, 16 Feb 2022 13:58:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2022-02-17T06:02:47.358-08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">LIFESTYLE</category><title>Gardening - Not Just A Woman's Job!</title><description><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgd4-z1jzn-Yg0JoCKnrd-vDXxh2pgUNMSAG1BINU44WD72r4iu82lE75Uv-SalHC1Z1j4BQHONxw6g_phwRSxyrF4ha9tLi7blCW4G53EF8l35-TFNzP1dOoTbROt2SZAFTk3dQk3xsABW3pGaw2ZQkVWD1T7dmhzQn05cpIOHpNWmGKwVLu60H4YmXw=s16000" /><span face="Helvetica Neue, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">At some point, when the time in "Hotel Mama", </span></span></span><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">in the student residence</span>,<span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> etc. is a thing of the past, many men long for their own home with a garden. Because as exciting as city life can be, it's also stressful. Many young people are therefore increasingly drawn to the countryside and hobbies related to nature are suddenly in vogue... hiking or mountain biking, for example. But DIY and gardening are also enjoying increasing popularity again. We will therefore tell you why a garden is not just for women and what options are open to you.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-f3f54fdd-7fff-b058-6c78-f007ab440782" style="font-family: helvetica;"><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">"Do-It-Yourself" is the motto</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Even if it may have gained momentum due to the lockdowns of the past few months, "do-it-yourself" in all its variations were already in vogue before that. The development was therefore only fueled and persists. “Do-It-Yourself”, or DIY for short, is the motto of many people in a wide variety of situations these days. For example, they tailor their own clothes, build their own furniture, repair broken items themselves or grow their own vegetables.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Saving money is mostly </span><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">just a positive side effect</span><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. The main motivation for such hobbies, on the other hand, is the opportunity to live out your own creativity, to make individual things, and to work with your hands like our grandfathers once did. A perfect counterbalance to the office job, which offers incredible satisfaction. Many people can also optimally relax with DIY projects and thus switch off from the stressful (working) everyday life. And with men, of course, there is also the aspect that DIY with tools and heavy machinery is perceived as masculine. A lot of women find that very attractive.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Gardening is back in fashion</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you've got a taste for it and are thinking about what you could do yourself in everyday life, you probably don't think of gardening directly. But you should, because it combines all the advantages of DIY hobbies mentioned with valuable time in the fresh air and in nature. At this point, the circle closes because, as already mentioned, more and more young people are consciously looking for closeness to nature. After all, it offers peace, relaxation, and a certain freedom that many people miss in their everyday lives.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It </span><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">has even been scientifically proven</span><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> how beneficial being in nature is for the body and soul. The dream of having your own garden is by no means just one of the women, but more and more men are becoming enthusiastic about this idea. Because at second glance, the garden offers numerous design options, so that everyone can find a DIY hobby to suit their own taste - maybe even a shared hobby with their partner or the whole family.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Ideas for DIY projects in your own garden</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In the garden, there are typical activities such as planting flowers, herbs or vegetables. Likewise, some tasks such as lawn mowing or hedge trimming have to be done. But not everyone finds it fun, after all, the creative aspect that is at the forefront of DIY projects is often missing. In addition to classic gardening, you can therefore tackle other projects that offer you more design freedom or in which you can do manual work. In this way, classic gardening can be perfectly combined with the current DIY trend and you will certainly find a project that suits your own taste. For example, how about…?</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">1.

Here the family sits together at dinner. Here you will find shade when it gets too hot. You can also relax in a deck chair. You can build such a terrace yourself as you wish, for example out of wood, tiles or paving stones. You can also install a canopy to protect the patio from inclement weather or </span><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">excessive sunlight</span><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. For example, you can attach a glass roof with an under-glass awning as comfortable sun protection at the touch of a button or build a small conservatory directly. There are no limits to your creativity.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">2.

Unthinkable for many men, which is why they grill at the first opportunity in spring. A grill station should therefore not be missing in the home garden. It doesn't always have to be the classic grill that disappears back into the garage after use. Instead, you can build a stone grill or design a permanently installed grill station according to your own taste. Add a cozy seating area and you can invite friends or family over for a barbecue as you wish – regardless of the weather thanks to the covered terrace.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">3.

Be honest: Many fathers don't just do this for the sake of their children, but also find fun playing and romping around in their own garden again...</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">4th bar</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you often invite friends over to your house, a bar for your garden might be a great idea. On the one hand, it looks cool, especially with the right lighting, and on the other hand, it ensures unforgettable evenings with beer, cocktails, etc. It is the focal point for every garden party and at the same time, you can prove your skills behind the bar.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">5. Garden path</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If, on the other hand, you want a classic project, you can devote yourself to the garden path. After all, every garden is optically enhanced if a small path leads through it, for example from the terrace to the garden house. Here, too, you can work according to your own taste, for example with wood or cobblestones. And here, as with the bar, the right lighting should not be missing. Then the garden path becomes a real eye-catcher at night.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span face="&quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif" style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As you can see, having your own garden offers you numerous opportunities for DIY projects that are not only fun but also ensure relaxation and improve the quality of living in your own home. So if you thought until now that gardening was only for women, we have now convinced you otherwise!</span></p></span></description><link>https://www.guestpostmag.com/2022/02/gardening-not-just-womans-job.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Abdul Basit)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgd4-z1jzn-Yg0JoCKnrd-vDXxh2pgUNMSAG1BINU44WD72r4iu82lE75Uv-SalHC1Z1j4BQHONxw6g_phwRSxyrF4ha9tLi7blCW4G53EF8l35-TFNzP1dOoTbROt2SZAFTk3dQk3xsABW3pGaw2ZQkVWD1T7dmhzQn05cpIOHpNWmGKwVLu60H4YmXw=s72-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285023311125807176.post-5499775491421646683</guid><pubDate>Tue, 15 Feb 2022 13:02:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2022-02-17T05:05:29.463-08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">LIFESTYLE</category><title>Training With A Weight Vest: How To Intensify Your Workout</title><description><p><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjiTN2QptqaTymwpHrzAfOtJq26qipLFbwmaMDxr4b-bv2wgOKe_1jtC__2r5livFT28OTD7r47qpVqRidm2sb2HwWSFEbvAQXjUjdRVPjR0CtT_dfrmAhAJQtCHMIb5Hvgsx1lYbKjmQv09XEhbR7toWqc8EGwVoiuI8hQ_pbXwCpx8CGaRLy4TiF_Mw=s16000" /><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">A weight vest is a versatile training device with different uses. Whether for faster muscle building, targeted fat burning, or improved coordination - training with a weight vest makes it possible to improve your form in different ways. We will show you exactly what you can use a weight vest for, what advantages it offers you, and what you should look out for when buying such a training device.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-b2b4ea67-7fff-d365-13c9-8ca2580e50db"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What is a weight vest?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This is a durable vest with several small pockets that can be filled with weights. These weights, in turn, can be metal blocks or small sandbags. The benefit of such a vest is that it increases body weight. During training, this supports fat loss, muscle building and increases endurance and stamina. You can wear a weight vest for both strength and endurance training. This inevitably causes you to burn more calories as your body is put under more strain. The vest pushes your body down. Every movement of yours then requires a greater effort.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What are the advantages of a weight vest?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Not only professional athletes train with weight vests, but also normal fitness enthusiasts. The reason for this is that you can wear it for any kind of physical activity and the vest also has different positive effects on the body. On the one hand, it can be used particularly flexibly. Whether it's intensive strength training in the gym, jogging in the open air, or leisurely shopping - a weighted vest can put more strain on the body at any time and this means you can achieve e.g. B. higher calorie consumption or faster muscle growth.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The vest is also particularly easy to wear and therefore very comfortable. Unlike additional weights on the legs or arms, the weight of the vest is also shifted to the entire upper body and is no longer noticeable after a short time. Another advantage is that these vests are suitable for practically everyone. Neither gender and weight nor training experience plays a role.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">For which exercises is training with a weight vest suitable?</span><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/Cc-p_cCl6JC1f0DHjNhwcoJSuviERwaGSRmpnuLfBhwgrKR2NYjsPB7rSf7IiLiKlyB8te-3rQHNcbTo3-qPookOFK7rUjmrHY0hFTTYbGUr3Zb7XZsILtOHtY6TyzPV_YdzIq_G" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In principle, any type of exercise can be performed with such a vest. The only important thing is to make sure that it fits perfectly and is comfortable so that it doesn't bother you during training. However, forms of movement in which you lift and push your own body weight away, such as pull-ups, push-ups, squats, or sit-ups, are best. You can also find special training vests for jogging on the market. These have a special design to give you even more freedom of movement. So if a vest isn't comfortable enough for certain exercises, it can often mean that you don't have the right model.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Buying a weight vest: what should I look out for?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">There is a wide range of different weight vests on the market. It will therefore not be difficult to find the right model for you and your needs. In the following, we will explain to you which criteria you should pay attention to when making your selection.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Weight</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The weight plays the biggest role in such a vest. It is important that you make a realistic assessment of this. Many probably consider themselves a little fatter than they really are. However, if you end up choosing a vest with weights that are too heavy, you could injure yourself in the worst case. When buying a weight vest, you should first ask yourself what your goal is and whether you want to build muscle, lose weight or improve your condition.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">For example, if you go jogging, you need a different weight than someone who is purposefully building muscle. The reason for this is that running, even without weights, puts a lot of strain on the joints, ligaments, and tendons. If the vest weighs five kilos, it can feel like 10 kilos when jogging.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When buying, you also have the choice between models with permanently integrated weights and variable models where you can also adjust and change the weights. No matter what you need this piece of equipment for, you should start slowly with the weights and work your way up.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Materials &amp; Processing</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Furthermore, the material and quality or the processing of the vest are decisive. You can find weighted vests made from nylon, polyester, neoprene, and foam. Which material you choose depends on your needs. Note that you may sweat profusely while exercising. Therefore, the material should not only be able to absorb moisture, but also be breathable at the same time so as not to give off additional heat. For this reason, it should also be possible to clean it in the machine.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As far as the workmanship is concerned, you should make sure that the vest has been sewn neatly so that it can withstand heavy loads without any problems. In addition, the shoulder area must have reinforcement. Tests show that the pressure on the vest is greatest there.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">wearing comfort</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Furthermore, the vest should also be comfortable to wear. When making your selection, pay particular attention to the design. The vest should not be too tight or cut into the shoulders. However, not only the size of the vest depends on this, but above all the quality. You should therefore rather invest in a higher quality model. Such vests also have a high degree of accuracy.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In this context, it would be important, for example, that the model has adjustable buckles and straps. In this way, you have the opportunity to adjust the vest specifically to your body so that it fits snugly and comfortably. This is especially important for fast body movements such as jogging.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Price-performance ratio</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Finally, of course, what the training device costs you is also decisive. You can find weight vests for around €50 but also for over €200. Very expensive models do not always have to be better, they often cost more just because of the brand name. At the same time, you should not fixate on the price and choose the cheapest model. This is then probably not well processed and not comfortable to wear.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It is therefore important to find a good relationship between price and performance. What helps is to read the customer opinions about the products on the Internet. Otherwise, you can also look at other products from different manufacturers. If you have overall quality products on the market, your weight vest will probably also convince of this point.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Can weight vests be worn in the water?</span><img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/TIfLbuPLObDi8odIAe3uFNeIXwbwhwkMNNG5pOOznEmuzOh0EjExNZjXnGSlzSkA_0XMsT2UeEPACFJ7PxSh2iIym-zLMpoigJcgH_EAsIg6K1MeU-l_yy9gcbgyJuO2OScNJ-GB" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yes, it is quite possible to wear such a vest while swimming. It is of course important that the respective model is also suitable for wearing in the water. These vests are usually made of neoprene. This material only absorbs water to a limited extent, so that the vest hardly gains any weight. In addition, such vests should only be worn in the swimming pool or swimming pool and should never be worn in the sea.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What should be considered when training with a weight vest?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Many believe that they can simply put on such a vest and start training. Before doing so, however, it is important that you first adjust them precisely to your body. There are usually straps and buckles especially for this, which you can adjust in size. It is important that the vest is snug and does not slip, especially during intense movements. The vest should ideally act like extra body weight.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition, it is important that you, even as a pro, start with light weights at the beginning. Even 2 kg is often noticeable. Gradually you can then load the vest with more or heavier weights. However, you should not overdo it so as not to hurt yourself. Even if such training vests are suitable for jogging, it is advisable to get used to the weight and run for a few meters with the vest at first. Then you can slowly start jogging.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What alternatives are there to training with a weight vest?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You don't necessarily need a weight vest if you want to intensify your training. Of course, such a training device has many advantages, but there are also alternatives. For example, you could fill a backpack with different things, such as water bottles or books, and carry it during your workout. Note, of course, that this does not wrap around the whole body like the vest. You should therefore not put too much strain on it, but with a maximum of 5 to 10 kg.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Then you still have the option of carrying weights for your arms and legs. These are often worn during endurance training. But also make sure not to overdo it and to choose models with low weights at the beginning. For this reason, it is advisable to always use a model where you can flexibly remove and add weights.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Training with a weight vest: our conclusion</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">While training with a weighted vest used to be ridiculed and even classified as dangerous by many, the potential of these products has now been recognized. Since they are versatile for different training sessions, they are the ideal supplement for different goals, whether muscle building, weight loss, or increasing endurance. Due to the variety of different models and the flexibility in terms of weights, weight vests are suitable for almost everyone, regardless of how fit you are.</span></p></span></span></description><link>https://www.guestpostmag.com/2022/02/training-with-weight-vest-how-to.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Abdul Basit)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjiTN2QptqaTymwpHrzAfOtJq26qipLFbwmaMDxr4b-bv2wgOKe_1jtC__2r5livFT28OTD7r47qpVqRidm2sb2HwWSFEbvAQXjUjdRVPjR0CtT_dfrmAhAJQtCHMIb5Hvgsx1lYbKjmQv09XEhbR7toWqc8EGwVoiuI8hQ_pbXwCpx8CGaRLy4TiF_Mw=s72-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285023311125807176.post-1750430736537016990</guid><pubDate>Tue, 15 Feb 2022 12:59:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2022-02-17T05:01:47.702-08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">LIFESTYLE</category><title>Find Some Peace And Quiet: Balance To The Active Everyday Life</title><description><p><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjStsIk7cpOiLrDC_XynWj6HAzxIIDeMGRnGejKY5QAvh0dgpZ6n7qKjvWr7b94Ye-ezhmjdGLeyIHhsDQyH5blZ0OzI7QD67258Wlu7tJQAwJpm0smvtTgaU6WOSqCBuJNmCJormzcS8cMA7vLrnJWmipecljCLdBT6ysnnrEA1GuKj4ebtQJyXV3-JA=s16000" /><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you lead an active life, have a stressful job, and are constantly on the move, you should at least get some rest and relaxation in the evenings. There is positive stress, but too much hectic is unhealthy in the long run.

Some prefer to be alone and indulge in their thoughts or hobbies, while others meet up with friends for dinner or exercise. It doesn't matter what kind of distraction you tend to have, just something you enjoy.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What to avoid</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Avoid resorting to alcohol, cigarettes, or drugs for any type of relaxation. They are not really balanced and put additional strain on the body.

You can also sit comfortably on the couch to watch TV or play games. This works great alone, but of course also with friends.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Maybe you're a book lover and can finally finish a book or listen to an audiobook while crafting something, assembling an intricate 3D puzzle that you want to hang up later? You can also do this while just lying in the sun and getting an attractive tan in the garden. If you're the outdoor type, do you also like creative gardening like trimming hedges or building a garden shed or even a pond?</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A healthy diet is also important, by the way – it can also be fun to cook your favorite meal in peace and quiet while listening to completely stress-free music – and later to enjoy a film on Netflix while eating. Alternatively, you can of course also have a delicious veggie dish delivered.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What you can do with your friends</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">By the way, you can also switch off perfectly if you maintain social contacts and make regular appointments with friends or at least talk to them on the phone. That takes your mind off things.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The better option is of course a personal meeting where you can invite your guests to your place or you can go to your favorite restaurant together. When you talk you can exchange ideas perfectly and you are torn out of your daily merry-go-round of thoughts.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Alone or with friends: sport and exercise are the perfect balance</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Balancing everyday life doesn't mean that you shouldn't do anything at all, although a weekend in bed (alone or as a couple) can also be a good approach. Doctors also recommend sports activities where you can work out. Exercise keeps you fit and healthy and is </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">equally important in your free time and at work</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Stress, mental stress, or cardiovascular diseases due to a lack of exercise are increasingly leading to downtime. Therefore, your well-being is of course also important to the employer. Many give their employees the opportunity to do company sports or offer health activities directly in the company, where you can, for example, play football against your colleagues or go bowling with them.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Relaxation also means health</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You shouldn't underestimate the fact that constant tension and rushing from one appointment to another will raise your blood pressure and lead to cardiovascular disease.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, too much stress also means irritability or insomnia.

Leisure activities are changing over time: quality time and a good work-life balance are becoming increasingly important in our fast-moving society. In addition, new trends are increasingly leading to a shift in interests. The subject of hobbies is associated with many clichés among men – hobbies such as DIY and cars are often associated with men. However, these have increasingly changed in recent years and new interests have emerged. We present the most popular leisure activities of modern men and show how they prefer to enjoy their quality time.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-f67e87dd-7fff-d50c-a9cf-a4ae7a1b2150"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">1.

The variety of this hobby and the numerous genres are impressive. It doesn't matter whether you play comfortably at home with game consoles such as the Playstation, play with your cell phone on the go or devote yourself to a game on the PC, the possibilities are diverse, as are the types of games. From first-person shooters to jump'n'run games, sports simulations, and strategy games to puzzle games, there's something for every type of gamer and every gaming taste. This variety certainly explains why the hobby is so popular with men.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Since the thrill of gaming is also very popular, online casinos are also a popular trend in the gaming scene and have expanded the target group of players. Anyone who would like to feel an adrenaline rush while playing and win money can find a reputable provider with good bonus offers with the help of an </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">online casino test and can try their luck at poker or blackjack. </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Transparency and security should always be in the foreground here in order to find the right offer for personal requirements.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Incidentally, the change in men's leisure activities mentioned above is already evident in gaming: for a long time, gaming was associated with the cliché of the classic nerd. Neck pain from work or gaming at the desk is therefore still referred to as "nerd's</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> neck</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> ". However, due to the variety of topics and genres, gambling has become an absolutely “socially acceptable” hobby that is not only popular with “nerds”, but with the general public.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">2.

But the cliché is no longer the only one. Men also show a broad interest in other culinary areas. Whether cooking classes, tastings, or other food-related hobbies, culinary delights are in great demand when it comes to leisure activities for men.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When it comes to tastings, steak tastings, for example, but also tastings of various alcoholic beverages such as whiskey, beer or gin are at the top of the list. In barbecue or steak courses, men not only learn how to roast or grill the meat perfectly but also learn some valuable tips about marinating and seasoning. No matter which tasting or course you choose, the focus is on enjoyment, which for most people is an important part of the quality of life.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">3.

The top priority here is football, which is not only played actively by many but also likes to be watched on TV or live with the buddies in the football stadium to root for your favorite team.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In addition, however, other sports that are getting closer to extreme sports are becoming increasingly popular.

In order to pursue one of these extreme hobbies, the circumstances must of course be right and they are not necessarily suitable as an everyday leisure activity. If you have the opportunity to try one of the options, you should definitely seize the moment.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">But not only risky sports are popular with men: </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Yoga and Pilates are also becoming increasingly popular with men</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, i.e. hobbies that focus on exactly the opposite, namely relaxation and rest. Although yoga, incense sticks, and chakras have an unmanly effect on many, yoga in its millennia-old tradition was actually a purely male domain for a very long time. Yoga teacher Markus Daniel explains that a more physical form of yoga that focuses on strengthening is especially beneficial for men. This is the case, for example, with hatha yoga.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">4.

While we can enjoy a lot of luxury in everyday life, it is good for many men to take some distance from it in their free time: They recharge their batteries by becoming one with nature and consciously forego smartphones and comfort. Camping, survival training, and other intensive nature experiences with exciting challenges have therefore developed into a popular leisure activity. Here we learn, for example, how to find our way around in the forest and how to make a fire – without a lighter or matches. Especially for city people, this is an exciting contrast to the hectic everyday life and is therefore very popular.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">5.

Especially with a desk job, it is good for many people to be active in their free time and to create something of their own. The possibilities are very diverse: men can, for example, build their </span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">own treehouse</span><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> for their children, create a pond in the garden or set up a party cellar for relaxed evenings with buddies.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When working with your own hands and concentrating on your own DIY project, you end up with a finished, visible result that you can be happy about or that you can make others happy with. In addition, a creative, manual task also helps to free your mind from everyday stress. So it's no wonder that DIY is still a popular hobby.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">6. Quality time with family and friends</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Maintaining social contacts is one of the most popular leisure activities. This also includes quality time for the family as well as good conversations and nice activities with friends. For example, fathers like to take the time to take their children to the zoo or an amusement park at the weekend or to play catch or hide and seek with their offspring. There are also plenty of opportunities for activities with friends, whether it's a visit to a go-kart track or an evening together in the pub.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, what is ultimately done during quality time with family and friends is irrelevant. Above all, the focus is on spending the limited free time with loved ones and enjoying it to the fullest.</span></p></span></span></description><link>https://www.guestpostmag.com/2022/02/this-is-how-quality-time-works-today.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Abdul Basit)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhrVnjWfFycG1rtWlROlZjYyTmmeUqC1IrSsWmr1LQ40BDxPkw9hdH7DlM-irrVswdChE8L4zjSX644dlwHzfJ7P2Ao2HCppo7S-1qpcKfaqNh42-qqpUS7MRt-PAV54v2HOKzY8AvN36HfV0h0fegjKxm4Fgap2FHql_-WoMGA7qJAhkhgqms4uVjxTg=s72-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285023311125807176.post-1899047732163942998</guid><pubDate>Mon, 14 Feb 2022 12:28:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2022-02-17T04:30:51.252-08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">LIFESTYLE</category><title>How You Can Effectively Increase Your Concentration</title><description><p><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEihWlqlN1gwxz8R-kKGPip2Cwc7XlWMn5FrpQKUZxToxI0uocwaWIqWrNPjSQSbr9u38ASeRkVrg97QOIydGBmJurkzqlXGW3wljnEkCIhicVXopERk00eR9BX9M7OI3il1TpuNmLlN6CJZHR1EOBfLxRPXVKb1A6QQU69TarkFxMFKK61llCbGTP0S3A=s16000" /><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Focus and concentration can be difficult to master. Surely most people want to learn how to improve their focus and increase their concentration. But do they? We live in a noisy world, and constant distractions can make it difficult to focus.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-c159bb8c-7fff-6ac6-6d4c-76b4f47f3a81"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">With this article, we will help you to increase and maintain your concentration. We will explain the basics to sharpen your mind and focus on the essentials. Whether you want to focus on your goals in life or work, here's everything you need to know.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What are concentration and focus?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">First things first: What is concentration? Experts define focus as the act of concentrating interest or activity on one thing. That's a somewhat boring definition, but behind this definition lies an important insight. If you want to focus on one thing, you have to ignore many other things first.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You can put it another way: You can only concentrate if you have said yes to one option and no to all other options. In other words, elimination is a prerequisite for concentration.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Of course, focus doesn't require a permanent no, but it does require a present no. You always have the option to do something else later, but in the present moment, focus requires you to only do one thing. Concentration is the key to productivity because if you say no to every other option, you can finish the one thing that's left-right.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Why can't I concentrate?</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Now to the important question: What can we do to focus on the things that matter and ignore the things that don't?</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Most people have no trouble concentrating. You have trouble making decisions. What this means is that most healthy people have a brain capable of focusing when we're clearing the distractions out of the way. Have you ever had a task that you absolutely had to do? And what happened? You did them because the deadline made the decision for you. You may have procrastinated before, but when things got urgent and you were forced to make a decision, you acted first.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Instead of making the difficult decision to focus on one thing, we often convince ourselves that multitasking is the better solution. However, this is ineffective.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The myth of multitasking</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Technically we are able to do two things at the same time. For example, it is possible to watch TV while cooking dinner or answer an email while on the phone.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">However, it is impossible to concentrate on two tasks at the same time. You either listen to the TV and the overflowing pot of pasta is the background noise, or you attend to the pot of pasta and the TV is the background noise. In every single moment, you focus on one OR the other.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Multitasking forces your brain to switch your attention from one task to another very quickly. It wouldn't be a big deal if the human brain could seamlessly transition from one task to the next, but it can't.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">How to focus and increase your attention span</span><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/QzsvNl8RpEZCNVPKSFO1J1MpMYnkBcIWGScdvclveq78StFVQM4iDvcVTXePJtpJRBm6f9n2KD7MUVpFHnuyQv6ZtWcc5u58p0dXUx_dz-nnJoRWGROvQshIDAiijWBBm3lMy6q7" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Let's talk about overcoming our tendency to multitask and focus on one thing at a time. With so many opportunities open to you, how do you know what to focus on? How do you know where to focus your energy and attention?</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Measure your results</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Concentration often drops because there is a lack of feedback. Your brain has a natural need to know whether or not you are making progress toward your goals. And it's impossible to know that without getting feedback. From a practical point of view, this means that we need to measure our results.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We all have areas of life that we say are important to us but don't measure. That's a shame because measuring keeps focus and concentration. The things we measure are the things we improve. Only through numbers and clear tracking do we have any idea of whether we've gotten better or worse. The tasks you measure are the ones you can focus on better.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Unfortunately, we often avoid measuring because we are afraid of what the numbers tell us about ourselves. The trick is to realize that measuring isn't a judgment of who you are, just feedback on where you stand.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It is best to measure yourself to discover, to find out, to understand. Measure and control to get to know yourself better. Measure to see if you are actually spending time on the things that are important to you. Measuring will help you focus on the important things and ignore the unimportant things.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Focus on the process, not the event</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The second thing you can do to orient yourself for the long term is to focus on the process rather than the event. Too often we see success as an event that can be achieved and completed.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Here are some common examples:</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Many people see health as an event: "If I just lose 5 kilos, then I'll be in shape."</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Many people see entrepreneurship as an event: "If we can get our company to go public, then we have it It's done.”</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Many people see art as an event: “If I can just get my work exhibited in a larger gallery, then I'll have the credibility I need.”</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">These are just a few of the many ways we categorize success as a single event. But when you look at the people who don't lose sight of their goals, you realize it's not the events or the results that set them apart. It's the commitment to the process. Of course, the funny thing is that this focus on the process will allow you to still enjoy the results.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you want to be a great writer, having a bestselling book is wonderful. But the only way to get that result is to fall in love with the writing process.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you want the world to know about your company, going public would be great.

You have to fall in love with building the identity of someone who gets the job done instead of just dreaming about the results you want. It's our natural tendency to focus on outcomes and goals, but focusing on processes produces better results in the long run.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">How to increase your concentration: advanced examples</span><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/XeRhyBp9HXKGyZNvMI88nvh6MeJvhX3890Gg1GCYdeN_eN4L_2b1iIEGyw4R2H_AwzAAF_IJ9tSDY7AFN8dfuXMIJShRzZrv6BSKIMQNGrpR4mhHbSYr6nL2XKFHDoGG5cVs0Ygc" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Even when you've learned to love the process and know how to better focus on your goals, implementing those goals on a daily basis can still be messy. Here are some additional ways you can improve your concentration and focus on what matters most.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Choose an anchor task</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">One of the most important improvements you can make is to give each workday one (and only one) priority. Even if you plan to do other tasks throughout the day, your priority task is the only one that is non-negotiable and absolutely must be done. This task is also called the "anchor task" because it's the pillar that sustains the rest of your day. The good thing about choosing a priority is that it naturally guides your behavior, forcing you to organize your life around that responsibility.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Manage your energy, not your time</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When a task requires your full attention, schedule it for a time of day when you also have the energy to really focus on it. For example, some people find that their creative energy is at its highest in the morning. Then you are often still very fresh. Then you can concentrate best and also make the best strategic decisions for professional or personal matters.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">So what do you do? You plan creative tasks for the morning. You then do all other business tasks in the afternoon. This includes interviews, answering emails, phone calls and Skype chats, data analysis, and calculations. Almost every productivity strategy is obsessed with managing time better, but time is useless if you don't have the energy it takes to get the task you're working on done.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Never check your email before noon</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Concentration is about eliminating distractions. Email can be one of the biggest distractions of all. If you don't check email early in the day, you can spend the morning pursuing your own agenda instead of responding to someone else's agenda. This is a big win because you don't waste mental energy thinking about all the messages in your inbox. It is clear that for many people it is not possible to wait until the afternoon, but we would like to challenge you. Can you wait until 10am? How about 9 a.m.? 8:30 am? The exact time doesn't matter. It's about taking time in the morning to focus on what's most important to you without the rest of the world distract you.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Leave your phone in another room</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Try to ignore your phone for the first few hours of the day. It's much easier to stay focused when you're not distracted by texts, calls, or notifications.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Work in full-screen mode</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Whenever you use an application on your computer, you should ideally use full-screen mode. When you read an article on the web, your browser should then take up the entire screen. The same applies to writing or using programs. It is best to set up your desktop so that the menu bar is automatically hidden. When you work like this, you can't see the time, other application icons, or other on-screen distractions. It's amazing how much this then affects your focus and concentration. When you see an icon on your screen, you'll occasionally be reminded to click on it. However, if you remove the visual cue, the urge to be distracted will go away within minutes.</span></p><h3 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.63636; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 13pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 16.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Remove any tasks that might distract you from your morning focus</span></h3><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Make it a habit to do the most important things first every day. This is particularly valuable because then the urgencies of the day have not yet crept in. You can even go so far as to move your first meal to around 12 p.m. each day. This gives you a little more time in the morning to focus on your work instead of preparing breakfast.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Conclusion</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Regardless of what strategy you choose to employ, remember that once you find the world distracting you again, there is only one thing you need to focus on. You don't even have to be successful in the beginning. You just have to start.</span></p></span></span></description><link>https://www.guestpostmag.com/2022/02/how-you-can-effectively-increase-your.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Abdul Basit)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEihWlqlN1gwxz8R-kKGPip2Cwc7XlWMn5FrpQKUZxToxI0uocwaWIqWrNPjSQSbr9u38ASeRkVrg97QOIydGBmJurkzqlXGW3wljnEkCIhicVXopERk00eR9BX9M7OI3il1TpuNmLlN6CJZHR1EOBfLxRPXVKb1A6QQU69TarkFxMFKK61llCbGTP0S3A=s72-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item><item><guid isPermaLink="false">tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4285023311125807176.post-6328617713663262044</guid><pubDate>Sun, 13 Feb 2022 12:24:00 +0000</pubDate><atom:updated>2022-02-17T04:27:16.088-08:00</atom:updated><category domain="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#">LIFESTYLE</category><title>Learning Discipline: How To Build Self-Discipline</title><description><p><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEisllEZ4kG_1uMIXdWqs6iQy9uhJuxze5VDsHMpnuwadBNQJuN3YwtI-lMsAP4kFYMmXEOQFO3DANBemc4QOCd9DWdVmgxRz_clnoVet2gbP6aoIbwzB7HM2MFGe-2SwEwC07iEGSZ3hVO2EHmGiZoStwE73iH7s-hArPc8WVhIKU93TW8yKTp_ds1DPw=s16000" /><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><span style="font-size: 11.5pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">We, men, know the situation all too well. Man(n) has vowed to improve his self-discipline. After a few weeks, you fall back into old patterns and have failed. It all started so well. Today we're going to show you how to learn the discipline you so desperately want to build.</span></span></p><span id="docs-internal-guid-77433bc5-7fff-54be-82e6-55178395ef61"><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The problem behind self-discipline</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">By now you're already a pro at writing to-do lists and you decorate your established schedules with motley color accents. Stop it! Do yourself a favor and drop these games. Just because you think you can use these methods to increase your discipline doesn't mean you actually do it.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As soon as the first ambitious goal is not achieved, you fall into a spiral of self-doubt. Training is neglected and deadlines are not met. Many say to themselves: “Now I have already left out one point, then it no longer makes sense to tackle the other points. I'll really get going tomorrow!".</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">In most cases, however, this is nothing more than silly gossip. None of these methods have actually proven themselves. You're back where you started. You start planning again. After all, the next time it should work better and the cycle begins again.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Is there a way to make actual changes? Establish habits that are long-term and help you to achieve your goals concretely? We want to help you and give you some concepts and strategies to build up your self-discipline in the long term.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Set yourself a specific goal</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What exactly do you want to achieve? If you want to learn discipline, it's incredibly important to know why you want to go down this path in the first place. There are many areas in which you can improve with increased discipline. But you probably won't be able to reach everyone. You have to decide on specific points.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Try to list your priorities. This gives you an order of preference and you know exactly which goal you want to tackle first. It's always better to write down your priorities in a quiet minute than to scribble down your to-do list every morning. If you know the direction, you can build a strong mantra and keep the right focus.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">do not let yourself get distracted</span><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/BEi3VbGYbXSubBRR6NOauPp_VhtcLy9JCyjPCvmv9pUWEaN_EvJQVQI5VbIYtEOCRpfyTRHJgUuP7D5XaM1ry93tLFq0FwpoiuhyT_GFsZSaFiRSUZiVXNqGULezixjJFqigRFix" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Admittedly, this strategy only superficially solves your problem. Learning discipline requires profound development. However, it can be a useful first aid to get rid of anything that might be preventing you from reaching your goal.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Do you want to quit smoking? Throw away the cigarettes and best of all the lighters. Want to cut out the junk food? Bring it to your colleague, who always has an empty fridge anyway. True to the motto: "Out of sight, out of mind." this strategy will help you achieve your goals.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You're probably wondering if this step is actually necessary. After all, confidence is always good. However, until today you have not managed to muster the necessary discipline to achieve your goal. Therefore, you should not trust yourself in this case.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Constantly work on your discipline</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">After taking a step forward, it can happen that you quickly take two steps back. Learning discipline is like muscle training. In the beginning, the motivation is still extremely high. If you used up your batteries in the first few days, you'll grind to a halt in the days that follow. It is better to go to your goals at a constant speed.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Daily repetition is critical to learning discipline. An activity must become a habit. You should focus on your goal every day. This is the only way to expand your comfort zone in the long term. What is your maximum today is your minimum tomorrow. In this way, you will reach your goal step by step, without the risk of relapsing.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Do not value the opinions of others</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Many plans fail because of their own environment or are not even tackled. If you wait for the approval of others, you are doing yourself a disservice. Building self-discipline means you seek approval and approval within yourself.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Many people worry about what other people might think of them. If you fail, friends and family might say they knew you wouldn't make it from the start. However, you have to take this risk. Once you drop the need for justification, you will be free to work on what is truly important to you.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Go step by step</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If you want to learn discipline, you should divide your goal into small steps. This can help take away the pressure and fear of failure. Once you've taken the first step, chances are you'll take the second and third.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Learning discipline also means learning methods. Tell yourself that you only have to do one small thing to achieve your goal. This technique is very effective because sometimes the initial push is the hardest part. Don't worry if your step seems small to others. The step must be so small that you cannot say no to it.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Your willpower is limited</span><img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/DflYDQ6Q8DXxxVW9Y2fgNpS_BuCeEYZ_blGVX6Ei0q67KIsIXEoFkNohTGymQzLuaBGCb77B5IDaSmKDUWGQPUiE3lHb7YX6cY0UkUVoZ5ksxdrvqKXKgwCa-aqwhx1dImlJFj0y" style="background-color: transparent;" /></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A limitation that is difficult to accept. You have only a limited capacity of willpower. Studies show that willpower diminishes over time. So you shouldn't waste your willpower pointlessly. Despite a high degree of discipline, it can happen that you slump and miss your goals.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The central point is the right timing. Not only important in relation to women, but also in personal development. If you plan to run a lap around the block every day, start preparing your workout clothes first thing in the morning. Otherwise, the temptation to skip the workout and throw yourself on the couch is too great. Especially after a long day at work. It is therefore important to tackle the tasks as early as possible.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Find a mentor</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Whether or not you actually organize a coach depends on who you are and what your goals are. Coaches are experts and can give you honest feedback quickly. You can also learn discipline from people in your everyday life.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Everyone has that one person around them. A person who seems to succeed in everything and no task is too big. In principle, you should try to adapt the habits of such people and, at best, seek their closeness. Motivating people do not only exist in your circle of acquaintances. There are numerous platforms where you can connect with like-minded people, at best to get a tip or two.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Have a plan B just in case</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If it should actually happen that you broke in and your discipline was not sufficient, you should always have a contingency plan ready to cushion your fall. If you want to learn discipline, setbacks are part of it. It's important to avoid a total crash. This can be achieved with suitable strategies.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You need to find out what caused your setback. At these points, make yourself aware again why you originally wanted to learn discipline and what goals you want to achieve with it.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">don't cheat yourself</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">There will probably come a moment when you decide to screw yourself. Cheating on yourself is particularly dangerous because you often don't admit defeat. For example, if you've made a commitment to quit smoking, there will come a point when you'll smoke half a cigarette anyway. It's only a half. Does this self-deception mean that you don't have self-discipline? No. But you should reconsider your current strategy.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Maybe you don't have the energy to do another run late in the evening. Or you're just bored. You could then try to change your running route or find a running partner. It is important that you are honest with yourself. When it comes to personal progress, it's often difficult to be honest with yourself. But that's exactly the chance to make real progress. This really helps you if you want to learn discipline.</span></p><h2 dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 1.66829; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 3pt 0pt 15pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 20.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Don't expect miracles</span></h2><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; padding: 0pt 0pt 20pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">You want to learn discipline and are highly motivated. It's good. But don't expect to be reborn as a new person. It usually takes 21 days to start seeing real results in a habit. The brain needs to transform. To gain masterful self-discipline, you need continuous challenges. Best for a lifetime.</span></p><p dir="ltr" style="background-color: white; line-height: 2.088; margin-bottom: 20pt; margin-top: 0pt;"><span style="background-color: transparent; font-size: 11.5pt; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Even if you only notice minor changes in yourself at first, this can set off a chain reaction over time. You will feel stronger, more confident, and manly. Discipline building is not about discarding your old life. It's all about having the determination to persevere and improve over the long term.</span></p></span></span></description><link>https://www.guestpostmag.com/2022/02/learning-discipline-how-to-build-self.html</link><author>noreply@blogger.com (Abdul Basit)</author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEisllEZ4kG_1uMIXdWqs6iQy9uhJuxze5VDsHMpnuwadBNQJuN3YwtI-lMsAP4kFYMmXEOQFO3DANBemc4QOCd9DWdVmgxRz_clnoVet2gbP6aoIbwzB7HM2MFGe-2SwEwC07iEGSZ3hVO2EHmGiZoStwE73iH7s-hArPc8WVhIKU93TW8yKTp_ds1DPw=s72-c" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></item></channel></rss>
