Weight Loss: Beginner?s Guide to Weight Loss: Mindset and Philosophy, Diet Plans for Health & Fitness, Weight Loss Motivation, Lose Fat & Destroy Sedentary Lifestyle

Fitness comes before anything. We all want to be fit, whether in terms of our mental health or the appearance that we show to the surroundings that are our physical outcome. A person who is fit is capable of leading a happy life. It plays a crucial role in our lives. Our fit and sound state make us capable of carrying our life’s issues in a sound and steady state. Fitness does not only refer to being physically fit and toned, rather it includes the mental state as well. How does a person react to different stages of life that show up during the course of living, how does he handle the ups and downs of life, how he manages all that goes against the wind and so on. Being fit and healthy would not only involve the flat stomach and toned abs which we all think about but the firm state of our mental and emotional health too. Physical fitness requires a change in life. Cutting those extra carbohydrates because you know they are not good for you, giving up on your habit of unnecessary munching, taking care of the number of calories you consume daily because you realize that the extra junk in the trunk will hamper your health and different organs in the long run; these are all those little steps that we take for our own betterment. In order to carry a sound state of mind a person would be physically active, he should incorporate into activities, he should move around, he should adopt a healthy lifestyle; ultimately all of this is going to lead to a stable state of mind and a better life.

Motivation Ethics

This is a book about a particular moral theory – motivation ethics – and why we should accept it. But it is also a book about moral theorizing, about how we might compare different structures of moral theory.

In principle we might morally evaluate a range of objects: we might, for example, evaluate what people do – is some action right, wrong, permitted, forbidden, a duty or beyond what is required? Or we might evaluate agents: what is it to be morally heroic, or morally depraved, or highly moral? And, we could evaluate institutions: which ones are just, or morally better, or legitimate?

Most theories focus on one (or two) of these and offer arguments against rivals. What this book does is to step back and ask a different question: of the theories that evaluate one object, are they compatible with an acceptable account of the evaluation of the other objects?

So, for instance, if a moral theory tells us which actions are right and wrong, well can it then be compatible with a theory of what it is to be a morally good or bad or heroic or depraved agent (or deny the need for this)? It seems that this would be an easy task, but the book sets out how this is very difficult for some of our most prominent theories, why this is so, and why a theory based on motivations might be the right answer.

Motivation and the Professional African American Woman

Statement of Problem The research addressed the gap in lack of understanding regarding what motivates African American women to become corporate leaders. Catalyst, a nonprofit organization that provides research pertaining to women in corporations, published a 2003 report that suggested African American women are under represented in leadership positions within American corporations. There is a lack of understanding about why some African American women are able to obtain leadership positions and others are not. According to that report, African American women make up 13.4 percent of the United States workforce and 5.1 percent of management, professional, and related occupations. In 2001, African American women held 1.6 percent of corporate officer positions within 429 organizations (Catalyst Report). An assumption is made within motivation theories that motivation is standardized behavior without racial or gender barriers. Initiatives to promote minorities, which include every race and gender, with the exception of the Caucasian male, tend to silence the barriers, trials, and discrimination that affect African American women. Despite the increased number of educated African American women in the workplace, the number of African American women in leadership roles continues to remain between 1 percent and 2 percent. In 2001, (National Center for Education Statistics, 2002) African American women earned 73,204 or 5.9 percent of the total bachelors’ degrees in the United States.
