How do you improve self motivation?

Here are some ways to motivate yourself to do things:

  • Give yourself a little reward. Make up something small -- like for every X minutes you do something you don't like, you'll do something else you do like for X minutes; or every time you do one chore, you get a star or X points, and when you have a total of Y points or stars, you can buy something you want, or go out and do something special.
  • Set a time limit. Do whatever it is for 15-20 minutes, then take a rest break. If you're trying to motivate yourself to do chores or work that is always piling up, like housework or laundry, tell yourself you're just going to do 15-20 minutes. Often, just getting started is enough that you'll end up finishing the chore -- getting started is the tough part.
  • Schedule it. Pretend the chore is a job -- put down a time to do the work every day, write it on your calendar, and pretend you're going to work! This way, you're more likely to take it seriously.
  • Praise yourself. Motivation is a problem for everybody. Whenever you get something finished -- or even if you just get started on it! -- pat yourself on the back and step back to look at what you've done. It feels good to see how far you've come, or how much of the job you've done. Don't think "Look how far I still have to go" -- think "Wow, I've already finished that much!"

What are japan's strengths and weaknesses?

Not sure if this can answer much, but I'm doing a project on Japan for American Studies, and I found out about its constitution from around the 1940's or something. Japan, due to i think it's 9th article can't seek out war as it states that a country doesn't just have the right to do so. Only under its International Peace-Keeping Law can it become involved in most anything of that nature. This could be seen as a hinderance I suppose. XD sorry that this is such a rushed paragraph, but i suddenly came across this, and am in a hurry.

What were three weaknesses of the Articles of Confederation?

Weakness of Articles of Confederation
Drafted during the years 1776 and 1777, while the colonists were still fighting for independence, the Articles of Confederation created a weak national government with most of the governmental powers retained by the states. The Articles provided no separation of branches. There was no president or any other independent executive, nor was there a federal judicial branch. Congress, the legislature, was the only branch of government. Members elected to congress did not vote as individuals, but as states. While congress did have some powers, it could not enforce its laws on the states or the people. States were permitted to coin their own money. There was no regulation of commerce between the states and states could even enter into treaties with foreign nations and declare war, "with the consent of Congress." Congress could not tax the states or the people, it could only request funds to run the government.

Assuming the referee is willing and able to discuss you, here are some questions your prospective employer might ask:

In what capacity were you employed? (This is also to check the validity of your resume/CV, and also to see how well the previous experience matches with the duties of the job for which you are applying.) 3. What was her/his relationship (that is, the referee) with you at the organization? (This is yet another "truth" check, and also to determine the value of the information given by the referee.) 4. Does the referee consider you to be: * Co-operative * Loyal * Trustworthy * Assertive and outgoing * A good team player * Taking initiative * Hard-working 5. What special skills does the referee think you possess? 6. How would the referee characterize your abilities in: * Management * Supervision * Leadership 7. What is the referee's overall assessment of your job performance? 8. What are your 'character strengths'? 9. More important, what are your weaknesses that the referee thinks should be discussed and that the referee needs to work on for further improvement? 10. Overall, would the referee's organization employ you again (or work with you again) if the referee's organization has a suitable vacancy or opportunity to contract with you? Questions might also be asked about the referee her- or himself, such as:

  1. Confirming the referee's position with her or his organization;
  2. Confirming the referee's contact information.

Can an employer ask if you smoke?

MAJOR CORRECTIONIt is illegal to ask if a person drinks or smokes in an interview.

Health and Physical Abilities

Your employees' health and abilities may be essential to getting the job done, but it's important to avoid assumptions and discrimination. Stick to these questions in order to avoid embarrassment and legal troubles.

  1. What you can't ask: Do you smoke or drink?

AnswerYes. Many employers consider it a liability since employees who smoke are often out on a smoke break and often have health related problems that cause an increase to health insurance. (Incorrect, Asking if someone smokes is 1000% illegal) As a SmokerPerhaps the health related problems stem from being forced to go outside in the snow for a smoke break. I've taken one week of sick leave in the past five years and that was for a hernia operation. None of your rights were broken.
