How to find inspiration and motivation to create posts on Steemit?

in #steemit7 years ago

What if i told you that you can create your own motivation and inspiration to be creative and do what ever you want? Yes iv said it, you don't need to search for situations or subjects or people to find inspiration or motivation. Without asking anyone for help, support, guiding or some kind of guru or teacher. No my fellow Steemians YOU can do this all by yourself.

You can use the information from this post to boost your creativity for Steemit post, or you can use it in your daily life and create a reality what you have wanted. And the truth is, the information is not something new. No my friends, it's the logic around our education system in a nutshell. They used that knowledge to create a education system what we have on this moment.

So im talking about, they created a system to activate the reward system in our brains, with the purpose of that children can reward themselves, with the purpose that they get the energy to grow further. And if that path is pointed to some kind multinational corporations position, then that means our education system is not creating humans, but more or less that they create workers.

This means, if you never get the information about what i explain in this post, from a third party source, then that means nobody will explain it to you, and then it can even work against you. Just think about these following questions.

If you never heard about the systems in your brains, do you think you can master those systems?

I don't think so, because if you never heard of them then it might be difficult to detect them. Because the reactions or actions of those systems, could be seen as one of your own habits. Like what many people said, im just like that... that is me... that's how i am.......

The truth is, most of our actions are habits what we created from earlier actions from the past, that don't say anything about what we really are, it only say something about our state of mind on that situation. Because a habit is nothing more or less that a behavior what you have learned, and those behaviors can be unlearned. There for people can't really say there habits is part of the essence of who they are, because the behavior is only temporally in that person until his experience will change. The point of life is be aware of what we are and then use our skills for our benefit.

Unfortunately the truth is other way around, people are using skills, information or power for their own benefit, and keep others ignorant and rather abuse people, then to bring them to the same level. This is the ice cold truth about our society and yes this might not sound positive, but im not gonna lie to you. And from my point of view it's all about ignorance and knowledge, ignorance leads to destruction and knowledge can the show the road to a better future. If you ask me, then our education system should have a proper education about how we can use the systems in our brains. But no they did something else.....

So instead of explaining us about everything, did they created a system what would activate our internal reward system.

That is the reason children on schools must go every week to the gym, because the reaction of physical movement will release dopamine! And what is Dopamine? Dopamine is a an organic chemical what will give you the feeling of joy as a reward. This means, nobody gives you a reward then yourself, the reward what others give to you is a illusion, it's not real. The only thing what is real, is your reaction on a reward. And that reaction depends on the value you gave on a reward.

For example the value of a phone and a car can be completely different for you, this means when someone gives you a car then your reaction would be different from when someone gives you a phone. That is because generally a car has more value than a phone, but the truth is, the real value is created in our own mind. This means the car could have value for someone peoples, but that depends on the person and situation. Like someone who loves going in nature, might not see a value in a car, and see more value in a phone. That means the reward feeling depends on the person and not on the reward.

Their for i said, the outside reward is a illusion, even if you can feel it or see it or touch it. And the truth reward is the value what you gave to a outside reward. This means you can give anything a value what can create the feeling of a huge reward. It's like eating a cracker when your hungry, suddenly that cracker taste like the best cracker ever, but it's not, that is just a reaction of the value you gave to that cracker. This can be with everything, you can give anything a high or low value, and enjoy the best feelings of regular everyday situations, objects or food. Every apple can be the greatest ever, or just another apple.

Another subject what our education system do is giving us test. They first give it a value, by saying it's important for your end points, or it's important for the next task or its important for your education. By saying all these things to us or the children, are they giving us information to give the test some value. What that value is, depends on the person who listen to it.

Children from broken homes, or live in poverty might see another value in those test, because the value of having a better youth or circumstances could create more value for that. And children who have a good youth and surroundings, might see those test as very important and work harder to pass it. And yes of course there also children who came from poverty who see more value in those test then any other person, because those test could escape them from their situation. So one way or another, the value of a test on school depends on the person, but the main goal of those test are for everyone the same. And the one who make it goes further and the one who's not, fall out of line and might end up on a lower career position in the society. So in some way a test could show the knowledge of a kid, but it don't explain why a kid got that knowledge, and instead of supporting those kids who fail, are they punished in our society for mistakes they never made. And the mistakes are, creating one type of education for children who come from different types of background or surroundings, while nobody is the same!

Ok in a nutshell, the reward system will by activated by those test, and who ever pass them can go further, and with the new amount of dopamine he will do even greater things in the future, or he will be more creative in his lie. But the opposite of all this is, when the goal is not reach then the chemical reaction in the brain will be the opposite of a reward, it will make a kid depressive and negative and he will lose inspiration and creativity, what he needs to move on in his life. And the only thing what a student can do is try again until he succeeds, while the problem of his failure might not have to do with his smartness, and is more influenced by other factors in his life, and the education system fails big time with those children. That is the problem with using the reward system in our education without explaining how everything works together.

The last thing what our education wants us to do is, making sure children eat fresh fruit or vegetables as lunch. And some schools share the fruit and on other schools are the parents responsible for their own children lunch. But the main purpose for fruit is to generate Dopamine, that will be released after eating curtained food. But you know what it is with fruit, it's not cheap and that's a problem for poor parents.

And in some way it's kind of stupid that fruit is expensive, because its coming from nature itself. It should be like the rain, falling down from the sky and there is more than enough for everyone to share. But because it's expensive could it be difficult for some parents in poverty to give their kids fruits, this leads to many children don't get the fruits what they need, and their for don't get the amount of dopamine what is needed to be creative in life. Not that it might be a problem, but the lack of could make a difference. And if you ask me then government could something about it, by giving parents free fruit or children free fruit on schools.


Ok ok ok enough talk about reward system and education system or what ever, we are here on Steemit and what was my point with this post? Well the same system what was used in our education system, could also be used here on Steemit or anywhere else, you just need to know how you could do it. And that's what i will explain now.

It works like this, the chemical Dopamine will make you smarter, sharper, more creative, secure or like a winner. Did you ever see people who are successful and how they behave? They look like a human energy ball right? Well that's because of the dopamine, and some people just know how to use it. But the truth is, it's no rocket science and everyone can use it, it's like someone tries to learn you about something what every human body can do, and there for it's not just for him or her, it's for everyone.

Everyone can be a winner or a loser, it completely depends on your state of mind. Because even if you lose a game or a test, then you also win the knowledge of the mistakes you make. Everything can be a win win situation, that depends on how you look the reality.

So the point is to be aware of the systems in your brains and use them for your own benefit. And it start by understanding that the reward system in your brain is activated on the moment you create a goal. That goal can be, walk to the bus, finish school, eat your lunch or anything really. And if you are not aware of this system, then you can start giving some rewards a different value.

A walk to the bus could be a regular thing, unless you never walked before, then the walk to the bus is like walking on the moon.

So you need to be aware of that you can make short goals about regular moves or actions you make and reward yourself from it. And the amount of dopamine you get rewarded with, completely depends on the value you give for those actions. This can give your life a complete other meaning, because now you can enjoy from every small thing and reward yourself from it, to make yourself feel better or more creative because of the dopamine.

This means you can use this for short goals and daily actions, but you can also make big goals and work in the same way. Like i want that Steemit must be a succes, because i believe in this concept and im confident that it will work in the future. And that success completely depends on the members who participate on Steemit, and im one of them. There for its important for me to understand that the success i make on Steemit, will participate on the general of Steemit. So my main goal is to make sure i can make that success, and that is possible by creative quality creative content.

And the best way is to focus myself to get as much dopamine as possible, by being aware of everything what i do. Here are two short actions what you can do to create dopamine fast in situations.

Think about every move you want to make, and create a goal for it.
Tell yourself to breath deep in for 5 times.

Next what you can do is, tell yourself that you want to make a post! Then tell yourself that you want some inspiration for a post on Steemit. And then stop thinking about it and do something to calm your mind down. That could be gaming, or take a shower, or take a walk outside for minimal 30 minutes. Il The point is that you should have a good time, a good laugh or meditate, and il guaranteed you that you will get a thought to create a post about what ever.

This might sound weird, but a idea or a thought can only come in a calm and joyful mind, just look at children. They have nothing to worried about, but they can think of all kind of things what you had never ever thought of.

And the last subject what is good to create creativity, inspiration and motivation is by having sex. Yes iv said it. Sex will release dopamine and is the perfect way to calm your mind down. And i know this might not be "handy" for singles, but im sure they can be "handy" with other things!

So what im trying to say is our mind is a beautiful machine, and if you find out how it works, then you can use it for your own benefit and enjoy maximum in life. This means you can create any goals, and give the reward a value what you think it's deserve and enjoy from every aspect in life. With that you can give a cracker the value of steak, or give a car the value of a Ferrari, because everything is in your mind.

It's like a circle, you create a goal! You get rewarded! And then you will create another goal and get rewarded again and so on and on and on. Just keep this in mind, nobody can really rewards you, only you can do that. Not even here on Steemit, because if you only value big rewards, then small rewards have no value at all, while both are "rewards". So it might be best not to look at the money rewards, and look more to the votes, and see the votes as a reward. On that way you will never lose here on Steemit! Because you always can reward yourself!

I hope it was not really chaotic, because i know from myself that i sometimes come over like this.

Happy start of the month, thanks for that excellent and wonderful publication, every day I learn a little more about people like you, successes, I vote for you and I follow you

Thank you, it's always great to see when others see "value"in my post!!
Thanks for the comment!!

That's actually a really interesting topic and I do agree with you that you can essentially 'hack' the reward center of your brain to help you achieve whatever you want.

If you set these small goals throughout the day, you'll get a release of dopamine every time you achieve one of your goals. Good post!

im glad you liked it!
And try it out!!
Thanks for the comment!

you always find the right words to motivate others!

@sinzerr! woah! That was a pretty long article! and your examples of the reward system were actually amazing. I've never thought about something like that!
Anyway, you deserve my vote for the time and effort you had to have put up to produce such an amazing article!
Looking forward to many more of your brainchildren! 🙂

Lol thank you, watch this video if you want to know more about the reward system.

Well! that was an amazing video with a lot of facts!
Thanks for the share 🙂

Your examples were awesome!!!
How did you come up with such wonderful examples?
Just amazing!
And speaking about the length of the article, just how much time did you put up?

Thank you for your comment!
I just asked and it was given from the universe, sound weird but that's how it was and that's how i do it..
I think i was more then 2 hours busy with the article! But i came up with the idea after reading one statement from someone who commented on one of my post. He asked my were i found the motivation from, and i could have answered it in that comment. But then i thought, why not create a post about it and explain to Steemit what i know. That's what i did!

Thanks for sharing this deep post and you nicely explained that, we have to create rewards and we should not wait for the reward, and don't watch for big reward because every reward is reward and here i want to say one thing that today small rewards can reflect as nothing but everything is starts from one so one day collective rewards can shock you. Wishing you an great day and stay blessed. 🙂

Nice said, same to you back my friend!

Thank you. 🙂
