A few interesting articles on motivation, awe and wonder, and meaning

As I like to do on a semi-regular basis, today’s another day in which I’m happy to be sharing a few interesting articles on topics related, in some way or other, to happiness and psychological wellbeing.

So, when you have a few minutes to read and learn, check out …

  • this great article from Big Think about how to use behavioural psychology to motivate yourself even when you’re feeling unmotivated … HERE
  • and another one, loosely related to motivation, is from Upworthy and focuses on how NOT to take things too personallyHERE

  • on a slightly different topic, but one that would, no doubt, be motivating in a different way, Positive News helps us find 5 ways to find more awe and wonderHEREĀ 
  • and finally, you can learn how to practice “positive optimism”. Sound interesting? Well, here’s how … HERE

As always, I hope you find even just one of these articles interesting and useful. Keep well and keep smiling … Dr Tim
