Get Paid For Walking with Step Bet Step Bet is the sister to Diet Bet. With Step Bet you put in some money, and it reads the data from your fitness Tracker (Fitbit, Garmin, Apple Watch)\xa0and assigns you a goal. You have active days (a smaller goal) and a stretch goal. For me, my goals are\xa0 9922 steps for active days and 12, 222 for a stretch days. (Your goals will be different based on your previous days). In a week you have four active days, and two stretch days and one off day. Do that for six weeks and you get a portion of the pot. My current pot has 600 people with a pot of 24,000. If 75% of people fail that means 18,000 will be divided between 150 people with a net of $120 (minus a cut for step bet). If money motivates you this scenario would bring a 300% return on investment (as I put in $40).\xa0 \xa0The key (for me) is getting up a litter earlier, and at night getting my steps in before doing any other activities (or by watching TV while on a treadmill). The real challenge here is the six weeks of consistency.\xa0 Its available on iOs and Andorid (see www.stepbet.com ) \xa0 Understanding Affirmations I was reading the book Burn the Fat Feed the Muscle\xa0and it had one of the best descriptions of why and how they work. In the book Tony states: All day long you carry on a mental conversation with yourself. Psychologists estimate that we think up to 60,000 thoughts a day and that 98 percent of these thoughts are the same ones we had yesterday\u2014most of\xa0them negative. In a year, that\u2019s almost 22 million thoughts! The basis for positive thinking and philosophies such as the law of attraction is that the subconscious is amenable to suggestion. People who say that positive thoughts and affirmations don\u2019t work aren\u2019t using them effectively or consistently, or they\u2019re wishing for the positive while thinking about the negative. This is me. I would try them for\xa0maybe three days. Mixed messages If a captain gives an order such as \u201cGo east,\u201d then keeps changing his mind\u2014\u201cNo, go west\xa0\u2026\xa0no, go north\u201d\u2014the ship would never get anywhere! This is also why most people get nowhere with their fitness, weight loss, or muscle-building endeavors. Ironically, the very statement \u201cPositive thinking doesn\u2019t work\u201d is a negative suggestion guaranteeing that it won\u2019t work! Again, this is 100% me. The conscious mind is a lot like the captain on the bridge of a ship. The captain sends a command to the engine room. The subconscious mind is like the people down in the engine room. No matter what orders come down from the bridge (conscious mind), the crew obeys, even if the orders are stupid ones that crash the ship into a rocky shore. The reason this happens is that the crew (the subconscious) can\u2019t see where the ship is going; they are simply following orders. Like the ship\u2019s crew, your subconscious mind carries out every command it accepts from your conscious mind. Its sole purpose is to obey your orders, even if you give ones like \u201cI\u2019ll always be fat.\u201d Frequent repetition of thoughts (mental orders) is one certain way to penetrate the\xa0subconscious mind. By constantly repeating negative commands such as \u201cI can\u2019t lose weight,\u201d your subconscious will see to it that you never lose weight because that\u2019s its job: to follow your every command literally and without question. If you program your mind with negative suggestions often enough, it will lead you right into cheating on your diet, skipping workouts, or some other form of self-sabotage. Without a target, your\xa0subconscious simply steers you toward your dominant thoughts. The subconscious mind is always at work 24 hours a day, whether you direct it consciously or not.\xa0 Because of how your subconscious operates, it\u2019s crucial to focus on what you want to achieve, not on what you want to avoid. He mentions in the book that much like weight lifting you need to give affirmations 25-30 days to sink in.\xa0 I've never been able to completely buy into Affirmations.\xa0To \u201caffirm\u201d something, by dictionary definition, means that you are declaring it to be true.\xa0When you say an affirmation over and over again, a couple of things happen. Your sub-conscience gets busy noticing ways to help you achieve your goals.\xa0\xa0 Because your brain is constantly looking for clues to filter your environment and guide your actions, it will pick up on any available influence. This could mean all the subconscious fears and doubts you haven\u2019t dealt with or even messages in your environment. The reason you need to repeat them is To run efficiently, your brain strengthens its connections every time you think, feel and do. This helps you perform tasks with less energy and more focus. Think about driving a car or riding a bike. It can be awkward at first when you're learning, but after you figure it out, it comes naturally. The Tension of Repeating a "Lie" May Be the Key One article stated, "If you feel uncomfortable about lying to yourself, you\u2019ll want to fix it. You\u2019ll either change the affirmation to make it comfortable, or you\u2019ll change your lifestyle and habits to make the affirmation true.The latter action is the response that will completely transform your life for the better!" While another article suggested adding reality to your affirmations such as: I am frustrated by my eating habits, but I am learning to treat myself with the respect I deserve. I am learning to do better.\xa0 I am sad about the fact that I\u2019m still single, but I am learning how to relate with men in a more open, brave, and vulnerable way. I am learning to do better. I am scared about handling this big, new project, but I am learning to have confidence in my ability to achieve my goals. I am learning to do better. These statements aren\u2019t \u201cempty self-praise\u201d or temporary \u201cmood-boosters.\u201d They\u2019re honest, self-respecting assessments about where we\u2019re at, what we\u2019re learning, and what we\u2019re capable of becoming. They are affirmations of\xa0truth\u2014and the\xa0truth\xa0will set you free. One Article on Psychology Today in 2017 stated, "the process of self-affirmation changes the way we think about our tasks or\xa0goals, so that we think about our tasks in more abstract/value-related ways, as opposed to concrete, lower-level actions." How Do You Write an Affirmation? One study found that if you have really low self-esteem, doing positive self-esteem can actually BOOST your negative self-esteem as you argue with yourself. FULL ARTICLE\xa0 Some people suggest a more honest affirmation. ThinkUp Affirmation App I found this app ThinkUp: Positive Affirmations & Motivation Daily - Precise Wellness LLC that is super helpful, easy to navigate and guides you through creating your own affirmations. You record them in your own voice, and then pick the background music, and more. You can test it for free, and then either rent the app for $3/month or buy a lifetime license for $24. I've used other affirmation apps, and this one is the easiest to use, and just seems more thought out and professional. You have access to affirmations from experts (for those who don't want to make up their own), and I just liked using the app. I can see me using this on a daily basis.
