Tip 79 External Events as Stimulus to Addiction
In this perception of internal cues, some external problem or event occurs and as a result of that event, internal cues appear. We react to the internal cues and take action. For example, in this perception of internal cues, an event such as the following may occur:
Our spouse is late from work: we feel angry: we wait and get angrier: we yell at our spouse as they walk in from work.
It is crucial, if you want to get motivated and achieve success, that you find the purpose in your life. This purpose should be something that gets you excited. It should be something that you care for deeply and it should be something that is related to how you define yourself. In many cases, the purpose at the center of the wheel of life has to do with someones contribution to the world - whether that contribution is through inventions, artistic creations, or help for the less fortunate. The purpose should be a simple statement, not a whole list of goals. It should be something that immediately makes you want to act or start work, not something that has no emotional resonance. |
