(Why Singlehood is Not a Disease) By Celes on Feb 13, 2009 | ShareThis Email This Post “To say ‘I love you’ one must know first how to say the ‘I’.”- Ayn Rand (in The Fountainhead)“You do not need to be loved, not at the cost of yourself. The single relationship that is truly central and crucial in a life is the relationship to the self.” – Jo Courdert Love. Soulmate. The One. There are several topics in life which attract a lot of desperation.
I know it because I’m single, and I have a lot of single friends. Singlehood = Incomplete? Somehow, the mainstream society seems to be hovering at the belief that we are only complete when we have found our life partner – our soulmate. Personally as a girl, I’m a true blue romantic at heart. But the society seems to have portrayed singlehood as some sort of a disease, rather than a perfectly fine state in itself. Desperation and Singlehood This leads to anxiety and desperation surrounding the topic, which leads to many pulling their hairs out trying to find ‘the one’.
Half vs. 1. 2. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. Maslow wanted to understand what motivates people. He believed that individuals possess a set of motivation systems unrelated to rewards or unconscious desires. Maslow (1943) stated that people are motivated to achieve certain needs. When one need is fulfilled a person seeks to fullfil the next one, and so on.
The earliest and most widespread version of Maslow's (1943, 1954) hierarchy of needs includes five motivational needs, often depicted as hierarchical levels within a pyramid. This five stage model can be divided into basic (or deficiency) needs (e.g. physiological, safety, love, and esteem) and growth needs (self-actualization). The deficiency, or basic needs are said to motivate people when they are unmet. One must satisfy lower level basic needs before progressing on to meet higher level growth needs. Every person is capable and has the desire to move up the hierarchy toward a level of self-actualization. The original hierarchy of needs five-stage model includes: 1. 1. 1. 2. 3. 4. The Talk. School is beginning. Many of you have written to ask me what our family “Back to School” traditions are. If I haven’t responded, it’s because I stared at those questions and thought: CRAP.
I’m supposed to have Back to School traditions??? If any, I suppose our traditions are getting crazy excited (Craig and I, not the kids), cursing through Target on the hunt for specific brands of scissors, and MAKING LUNCHES again. Why is making lunches SO hard? Also, this: The Talk. Please don’t forget to have The Talk. One way is to copy and paste this letter, change Chase to your kid’s name, and read it together. Love You So. Carry On, Warriors. Love, G originally published on august 28, 2011 Dear Chase, Hey, baby. Tomorrow is a big day. Chase – When I was in third grade, there was a little boy in my class named Adam. Adam looked a little different and he wore funny clothes and sometimes he even smelled a little bit. And I never talked to Adam, not once. I still think about Adam every day. Love, Mama. Habits: How They Form And How To Break Them. Routines are made up of a three-part "habit loop": a cue, a behavior and a reward.
Understanding and interrupting that loop is key to breaking a habit, says journalist Charles Duhigg. iStockphoto.com hide caption itoggle caption iStockphoto.com Think about something it took you a really long time to learn, like how to parallel park. Parallel parking, gambling, exercising, brushing your teeth and every other habit-forming activity all follow the same behavioral and neurological patterns, says New York Times business writer Charles Duhigg. How Habits Form It turns out that every habit starts with a psychological pattern called a "habit loop," which is a three-part process. "Then there's the routine, which is the behavior itself," Duhigg tells Fresh Air's Terry Gross.
The third step, he says, is the reward: something that your brain likes that helps it remember the "habit loop" in the future. "In fact, the brain starts working less and less," says Duhigg.
