Our focus: family, money or work?

Harmony comes depending on the circumstances and needs.

Our focus: family, money or work?
Pinterest

Each of us has a center which moves us to a greater extent. We can not fully understand, but this facility affects us and our development.

1. The center - a favorite person / family

As often happens, love - the whole world for us. And it's wonderful, because union makes us stronger and more confident. Relationship to charge, to inspire, but there is a downside ...

This is a strong emotional dependence on children or partners will. We become overly sensitive to the moods and feelings, to the behavior of their spouses, to the way they treat us, or to any external changes that could affect our relationship - to the birth of another child, to the relations with the relatives on both sides to financial difficulties, social success, and so on. For example, a quarrel with her beloved - messed up a relationship with a colleague or were unproductive all day at work.

2. The center - work.

Develop their business or improve their skills - useful. However, people concentrate on the job, to stick to the detriment of health and family, to associate himself primarily with his work: "I - a doctor," "I - writer", "I - a businessman." Their perception of themselves and a sense of self-worth associated with work - they are vulnerable, wisdom and power appear only in a limited sphere, making them ineffective in other areas of life.

3. The center - money

People concentrated on money, often neglected family and other important things, believing that everyone understands the priority of economic demands. To work for a comfortable future, their dreams and goals, a good environment for children - it is right. But it is not necessary to chase the money as the most important source of life - otherwise you and your consciousness is doomed. You will become fixated screw, which is always likely to be small. You will become those who will lose the true values.

4. The center - friends / enemies

When all your communication and activity swirling among friends - is, of course, interesting and fun. Surely, you are the soul of the company and you have a proven, reliable people. Or maybe your environment unhealthy. In any case, you become too dependent on the opinion of the majority, you are prone to herd instinct and do not develop other areas of life. And if you're fixated on enemies and retribution - burns you time and energy in vain, build your same misfortune.

5. The center - Fun

This center is inherent in young people. The man focused on a constant pleasure, does not know the work and work on yourself. He is not familiar with the responsibility and is always looking for a way to satisfy their needs. A man in such a state practically falls into narcissism and everything in life begins to perceive the light of pleasures that he can get right here and now.

6. The center - the man himself

In the center, narrowed to the "I", there is little room for internal security, internal orientation and wisdom. This center absorbs but does not give. There is stagnation. On the other hand, if a person is committed to self-development, in order then to more efficiently serve others, be more productive and make a meaningful contribution, it creates the basis for an extraordinary development.

Overall, most human center is a combination of several different centers. Most people's lives are influenced by many factors. Harmony comes when, depending on the circumstances and needs, which includes a specific center, is not contrary to the values and improving the standard of living...

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
