Let Joy be the Motivation 2

“… for fear rarely succeeds as the catalyst for change. If fear were an effective strategy for change, millions of people would have given up smoking already… Medical studies have shown that patients with serious heart disease rarely make lifestyle changes out of fear of death but will readily embrace radical lifestyle changes when these changes demonstrate a greater enjoyment and pleasure in life. Clearly, a far greater motivator than fear is joy…”
我引述以上文字是因為有感新聞報導傾向負面,生物絕種、山火、水災、等等都叫人絕望。而絕望不能帶來正面的改變。如果末日將到,with certainty,誰不會盡情放縱呢?反正明天可能不會醒來。所以,嘗試發掘、欣賞世上美好的事情吧!

Let joy be our motivation.
