The brain forces us to pursue fresh impressions, but positive emotions can also be obtained from what we already possess.
Why do we always want new things
People need to constantly get something new. This is well known to marketers. Limited clothing collections and improved gadget models may not be so different from previous ones. But they, you understand, are new.
The roots of such love for the unknown are in our brains. Any novelty provokes the release of dopamine - a neurotransmitter, which is an important part of the reward system.
However, everything becomes boring over time. We take over the thing, get used to the new status or situation. Their subjective value decreases, and a need arises for new experiences.
How to love all you have again?
Focus on small things
Choose the most important things for you, temporarily removing all unnecessary. It’s easier to figure out if you really need it or not. Maybe online music subscriptions aren’t so necessary? This is an occasion to get vinyl records from a shelf or to listen thoughtfully to music stored on a computer.
Improvise traveling
You may have noticed that during traveling is much easier to handle things. After all, you take only what you really need and like, and pick up clothes so that all items are combined with each other. Why not use the same method all the time?
Imagine that you came to your city on a business trip, and for some time use only things from the “suitcase”. A more global method is to pack all things as if you are moving, and unpack them as needed. In both cases, what you will use as a result will be the most necessary.
Tell stories
For objects that are truly dear to us, and for activities that cause persistent positive emotions, usually there are some events or values. Let's say this scarf was presented to you by a loved one, and one cup makes you feel homely, so you like to drink tea from it. When this narrative is erased and loses its significance, emotional attachment weakens. Things become just pieces of material, and your favorite activities seem meaningless.
To prevent this from happening, periodically tell yourself and others about the meanings that stand behind things and practices. This can be done in conversation with friends, in photo captions, or just in your head.
Stop comparing yourself to others
This will help to separate personal needs from external ones. The actions of others are not a reason to do the same. Surrounding are captured by the same dopamine traps. Even if someone post some wonderful photos on social networks, you cannot know if they are experiencing real happiness. You can answer in such questions only for yourself.
However, capturing your house, things and daily activities, and then uploading it to the Web is a great way to collect compliments and thereby increase the value of what you love. Although, of course, the most useful thing in this practice is to look at your life from a new perspective and understand that you, in general, have a good time.
Conclusion
Completely abandoning everything new is not the best way, because it stops development. To avoid stagnation, from time to time, something needs to be changed. However, the obsessive pursuit of new positive experiences reduces their severity.
Donald Trump horrified the Americans again! How he relaxed on a sad day for the United States
Donald Trump once again provoked the indignation of the American public opinion - even on the day when the officials from Washington announced a devastating balance of the coronavirus epidemic, the president of the United States preferred to play golf!
Trump has chosen to relax on Memorial Day, a day to pay tribute to the American military who gave their lives for their country.
But instead of a visit to the Pentagon or Arlington Cemetery where many war heroes are buried, Trump went to his golf club, which he had not visited for more than two months.
And at the White House, the death toll from coronavirus was close to 100,000, a figure that puts the United States at the top of both casualties and infections, over 1.6 million people.
Asked about the fact that instead of mourning he plays golf, President Trump said he hopes to resume golf tournaments as soon as possible.
"We want life back to normal as soon as possible. I can't wait to see golfers again and enjoy the same experience as mine," Trump said.
The coronavirus pandemic is creating big troubles for people. Work and studies from home are the new conditions for everyone all across the globe. To prevent the virus from spreading at the workplace, schools and universities, more and more companies are turning to remote work as a necessary step to continue realizing their agenda. This unpredicted new reality is for an unknown time limits, but it made the bosses meet their employees online.
One of the leaders decisions, is to encourage people to work from home during quarantine. Working from home for someone is paradise, but for others can be horrible. Families with children found here a big problem, no video conference without them. There are also some people who have problems with modern technology, so they transform themselves in a potato, using some filters and are unable to figure out how to turn the filter off.
The global work-from-home movement intended to maintain efficiency during the COVID-19 pandemic, so people can maintain economic stability in their family budget. The closure of schools and transition to “distance learning” for children, created the condition of studying at home, so students now are the one who also have daily online conferences.
For many persons, setting up a home office is a full creation, while in self-isolation people get creative. Some parents share their desk space with kids or are having furry little friends participate in conference calls. No matter in which situation you are, you have to work or study at home. Online conferences are the best option, while learning and working process is maintained.
Protecting ourselves is important during this progressive pandemic. DIY masks are different and improvised from different stuff, people are ingenious and this is the result. Everyone strive to spread good mood and positive emotions. Here is where people decided to “create” something new and funny.
Handmade masks, need to be tested, so to understand if it works. Some masks are made just for fun, without any protection, but others can be even better than the one we are used to wear. Specialist are afraid of the plastic bags, which brings the risk of suffocation.
Remember that masks are not assuring you health, and definitely protecting you from the virus. The best way to stay healthy and really safe, is at home. Please stay at home, keep the social-distancing and avoid contact with strangers and not only. The virus is constantly spreading and affecting different regions and countries, that’s why you don’t have to be 100% sure in your mask defence.
This compilation can be the funniest you have seen for today, or maybe a fashionable trend. Kitchen sponges, diving masks and other stuff is the new trend on internet. It is boring to look the same with others, so let’s see how people decided to make their masks.
