How to Get Pregnant

2009-06-04T09:49:00.002+07:00

It is a widespread belief that the best way to get pregnant is to simply make love every day. This sounds logical but really it isn't the best option at all because the potency of the sperm is greatly decreased by frequent ejaculation.

The actual time for becoming pregnant may be as small as 12 hours as the ovum will dry and becoming useless a few short hours after leaving the fallopian tube.

Sperm can survive up to 4 days inside the body of a woman so the ideal scenario for becoming pregnant is to have fresh sperm inside the woman's body just before the time of ovulation. This way sperm can be present right at the opening to the fallopian tubes ready to fertilize the ovum as soon as it emerges.

3 Ways to Discipline Our Self for Success

2008-07-21T18:16:00.001+07:00

No objection: self discipline is vital in reaching our success. But most of us bear in our mind this vision of discipline: sacrifice, strain and difficulty.

It has to be so hard? Below are three less discomfort ways to discipline for success:

1. Changing our mind toward discipline. Our common reaction is that discipline consists of unpleasant activities, so we tend to put those activities aside until we feel pleasant to deal with them.
Instead, try to focus on the sense of accomplishment we gain when we finished the task. Affirming our self how great we'll feel when we conquer the challenge. So pump our self and done it all ASAP.

2. Take gradual steps. It's useless to force our self tackling huge list tasks immediately. Rather, try to get first thing first, start from the fairly easy to accomplish. Make sure we done that task in fairly period, than add another task, increased in size or frequency. Doing more each time we keep increasing our task. Eventually we'll find our self doing the things we have to do.

3. Get committed. Every mission start in our heart, so in the beginning of the day take a solemn vow that we will do what it takes to accomplish our mission. Commit our soul and body to the success of the mission. As we walk the day recommit as often as it needed. The real force is in our heart.

Success Through Self-Images

2008-07-17T01:07:00.002+07:00

What are the images we hold of our self? Are those mental pictures about our self reflecting what we really want for our life? It is very important for us to take notice of our self-images because they can support or weaken our efforts to success.

If we feel pride and confidence of our self-images it’s mean we have a positive self-images. Then we have to continue to nurture those images. But if we feel that a change is needed to align with a better self-images that we desire, then an immediate way to begin is to figure out what change is needed and make a commitment to take action on it. Remaining on our present state is not an option.

While we take action day by day to make the change, we refine our visualization of our self-images as detail as possible.

If we persist in this change, we will notice there is a shift in how we mentally picturing our self. As we develop more positive self-images, our self confidence will increase. Better self-images will produce better enthusiasm and create more momentum to achieve success in our life.

Making Self Motivation Work

2008-07-12T03:52:00.001+07:00

Do you really want to make self motivation work for you? Below are some fail-safe techniques.

a) State goals.
First of all, we must state our goals with deadlines. If we can’t state our own goals, the chance is we don’t know where we’re heading for. It is hard to develop a strong desire of achievement if we don’t really sure what to achieve. Experts have always mentioned it: know what you want and want it stoutly, if you want to achieve it.

b) Think positively.
It is vital to think positively and act positively about our personality. Put it this way: we can’t get positive outcome if we think negatively. Optimism is exceptionally important to achieve success in life. It increases our likelihood of achieving success to a vast extent.

c) Make plan.
Steve Chandler, a motivational speaker, once stated: “Successfully planned work will definitely motivate you to do more and more until you become unstoppable.” An action plan in itself contained immense source of motivation. It will also save us a lot of time and energy in moving towards our goals. Actually, nothing will work well for us without a plan.

d) Face problems.
It is likely to face obstacles in life. However, this should not become a reason to quit or to give up. We should see the diamond in problems. Every threat has something good in it to teach us. Running away from them is no solution, even make them worst.

e) Create energy.
Self-motivation consumes a lot of energy. Try to exercise and sleep well to create new and fresh energy and to stimulate desire. If we don’t have the passion to carry out a job, we will fall short in the start.

h) Small step.
If we have planned a huge target for our self, then we need to review our perception. It is not because the target isn’t possible to achieve. It is about making it a bit reasonable. The key is to break that giant target in to several small goals and try to achieve them one by one. Work towards the target gradually and voila: we are there.

Focus On Positive Thoughts

2008-05-23T17:58:00.001+07:00

Focus on positive thoughts means that we focus on something we prefer to happen or to have. We often hear something like this: “We must focus on positive thoughts, not on negative thoughts”. Everyone should agree about that. Why?

First, because positive thoughts make us feel better than negative thoughts. Second, because positive thoughts will attract another positive thoughts and negative thoughts will bring another negative thoughts. The accumulation of positive thoughts will increase our self potential while accumulated negative thoughts just overwhelming us.

But it is not that easy to always focus on positive thoughts.

Sometimes we find ourselves in unfortunate circumstances that it is hard for us to focusing our mind on positive thoughts. Our loves one just leaves us, our shelter just tear down, or our mind just occupied by some little worries that always bothering. Under these circumstances, expecting someone to feel happy and look sparkling is too much.

That is true, but focus on positive thoughts does not mean that we always feel joy and happiness. That is also true there are some thoughts that can make us happier than the others. Thinking about someone that is around us right now can make us happier than thinking about someone who just leaves us. Thinking about opportunities in our new neighborhood can make us happier than thinking about our ruined house.

The key is to take our focus away from a negative subject and start focus on something more positive. Maybe we can not 100% happy, but 60% happy is much better than 40% happy, isn’t it?

Mind Power

2008-05-14T07:53:00.000+07:00

What will happen if we focussing our mind consistently on what we want? The tendency is we will get it.

Those images will be taken by our subconcious mind, then it start figuring out how to get them. Over time, if we persistence focussing our mind on one thing, we will find that we obtaining the thing we have been imaging, step by step.

Wrong Focus Wrong Images

2008-04-26T12:44:00.000+07:00

Use your mind power to focus on what you want and avoid focussing on what you don't want. Why?

Because your subconscious mind doesn't understand the word "not", so If you focus on "not being A", it will going to form images of "being A". Your subconscious mind will take those images of A and gets you what you've shown it -- A.

So if you want to be B and don't want to be A, don't focus on "not being A", rather focus on "being B". Unless, you will get what you don't want!
