Introduction
It was very wise of you to think about what action is and why do you think? To do this, try now to remember a person whom you respect very much and you will quickly understand that he received such a high rating among you precisely because of his activities.
Mozart is known not because of what non-standard thoughts were in his head, and Mendeleev is not known for how strong he could say. Nobody cares what we think or what words we say, in the end we are all judged by the case. Hardly a famous pianist or an eminent scientist understood the meaning of the word "laziness", in which case why are some people lazy and others not?
What is action
Before we talk about how to start acting effectively, let's understand why we elevate people so much based on their deeds, and what exactly is action?
A way to be in harmony
Promotional video:
Man was born to act, create and change the world. For this, we are endowed with energy and consciousness, so that we can invest this energy as it seems right to us.
Take any of the most indestructible objects, let it be a rock. To begin with, the rock arose due to the movement of plates, due to the same forces, it moves up or down all the time. And the rock also moves because the Earth moves and rotates. No matter how strong the stone may seem to us, the atoms of which it consists are constantly moving inside it. Nature never asks the question “What is action?”, It acts continuously.
It is impossible to imagine life without movement, because we are doing something all the time. You can try doing absolutely nothing for several days and you will start to feel that life is passing by you. Action is a way to move with the world and find harmony in this process.
Energy implementation
Energy is the main resource of a person, but it was given to us so that we ourselves could give it away, this concept is described in detail by the law of equilibrium of the Universe.
You may have enough energy to build a house, but until you have built it, your energy does not matter. So what is action? First of all, it is a tool for realizing energy within us.
School
Pay attention to your skills, how did you develop the ability to write, read, walk or ride a bicycle? It's all about practice-based learning. It is impossible to get on a bike for the first time and go about your business exactly. First you need to understand how it all works: how not to fall off the bike, how to turn and overcome obstacles.
The subtleties of cycling cannot be learned in the mind, they are comprehended in practice. A school through which we can empower ourselves is what action is. We already know that the world is constantly improving, and our actions allow us to keep up with it.
Receiving the information
Surely there are “like” and “dislike” categories in your life that we all rely on all the time. But how did we decide that we, for example, do not like to offend people? We can be told as much as we like that offending people is not good, but until we ourselves take an action in this direction and evaluate our feelings, we will not receive truly reliable information.
What is action? is a process that allows us to collect most of the most essential data about ourselves and the world around us.
Synthesis of results
Take a look around: absolutely everything that we can see (including ourselves) was once created through actions, without them it is impossible to get any result.
If we want to make money, then we go to work and take actions in the direction of this. If we need to make repairs, then we act in the direction of repairs. This is the only way it happens.
The ability to understand who you are
Okay, but why do we even need to receive any information or achieve specific results by our actions, why is all this? Here a person pursues one ultimate goal - to understand what I am.
We always want to show our best features, qualities and abilities in life. When we succeed, we have the opportunity to contemplate, for example, a house built by our own hands, and form a concrete conclusion about ourselves: “Wow, did I do that ?! Very much! - this is the knowledge to which we all try to come, but it is possible to get it only in action.
Why people are lazy
Laziness is a lack of desire to do something. Forewarned is forearmed, so let's figure out why a person is lazy.
Any action follows thought. Therefore, thoughts materialize: a new house on the planet appeared only because once someone in his mind considered it very important and significant to give people shelter, thereby synthesizing in himself the desire to build this house.
Thinking gives rise to all our actions, respectively, if we are lazy and do not act, then something is wrong with our thinking.
A lot of unnecessary
We have taken away our ability to think effectively. Our thinking is constantly busy with everyday problems, watching TV, unnecessary worries, endless conversations about anything, and the Internet in a person's life is a separate story altogether.
There are too many distracting things on the planet, too many unnecessary things, because of which there is no room in my head for ideas on the topic “What is really important to me, what I would like to go to, and how what I am doing now will help should I go there?"
It's funny, but our mind is too busy right now to think about the main thing. Trying to act with such a mess in your head is like getting into a broken rusty Lada and hoping to fly to the moon.
No results
If there are no results from our activities, then the balance is upset: efforts were given away, but nothing came back in response. Lack of results always hits us hard. But there can be no question of results as long as a chaotic circulation of thoughts is observed in a person's head, which he does not control in any way.
There are no results because we don't think about goals. And if we do not think about them, then ideas will not appear in our head how to reach these goals. Based on disordered thoughts, we will act randomly.
Fear of action
When you act, but do not get the result, and your world does not change dramatically, then you immediately rush to conclude that you are not capable of anything and that there is simply no point in your actions. After such conclusions, you no longer dare to make significant body movements, because why again and again receive unpleasant information about yourself and waste energy in vain ?! This is why a person is lazy.
This is how we cultivate a fear of action that successfully fetters us and harmoniously complements the clutter in our heads.
Irresponsibility
Based on fear and confusion in the mind, we cultivate irresponsibility, expressed by a wasteful attitude towards ourselves and our efforts. At best, we simply dissipate energy, acting nowhere, at worst, we are lazy and try to save this energy to the maximum.
Irresponsibility gives the illusion of freedom, allowing us to be lazy and calmly suffer even the most ridiculous bullshit, but at the same time it creates a world in which we will never achieve anything. Is it worth it?
Dislike for action
The desire to act lies in the love of what you are doing. Is it possible, acting chaotically and irresponsibly, to love what you do? Let's not deceive ourselves: it is unrealistic to fall in love with actions if they do not bring us anything, and the very thought of them evokes fear, longing and anxiety.
It's time to think how many of our actions are those that we love with all our hearts? The inability to love what you do and do what you love and gives rise to our laziness.
Primitive motives
Ultimately, it all comes down to the meaning of our actions, which we do not work on due to the disorder of thinking.
The more primitive the meaning of an action, the less satisfaction there will be from its implementation. Therefore, a person is lazy, and why should he act if he is not simply grasped by the meaning of the drawn activity?
For example, going to work for money is a very simple motive, and a person quickly grows out of it. Then he tries to find something more in his work - a special meaning that would justify the daily waste of energy. And if he does not find such a meaning, then one day the thought appears in his head: “I don’t want to work anymore”. End of the story.
Whatever activity our character chooses, if he does not know how to give it meaning, then he will not be able to love it and will not show the best in himself thanks to her - this is how fateful the motive is.
Summary
To summarize, what is action? Action is the only way known to mankind to unlock your potential, achieve any goals and be happy. There is a deep meaning hidden in movement, which we tried to reveal for you from all possible sides, so that the need for constant action in life becomes even more obvious.
Any accomplishments are always born in the mind, but our modern mind is a tool that more often generates laziness than desire. To change this, you will have to seriously work on thinking: unload your head from unnecessary ideas, far-fetched problems, constant worries and finally think about what is important to you, what you are interested in, where you find the strongest meaning. Thinking must be an ally of a person in every action and this should always be remembered.
This is where the production about actions and laziness ends, the curtain slowly drops, thanks for your attention, our theater is waiting for you again!
