Increasing Workplace Productivity through Method Acting

In method acting, which is the truest (or purest so to speak) form of acting used by the greats like Pacino, De Niro and ilk, it’s immensely important to be able to make use of the full gamut of emotions. Of course, in acting, the reason for this is to be able to faithfully reproduce what the character in a Read more [...]

Gameplay of Life
Self Motivation through Action & Reward
In this series we reveal why the laws of gameplay work and how and why you should apply them to real life. In this episode we look at how games motivate and empower you through the Action / Reward mechanic and how you can motivate and empower yourself in real life by applying the action / reward mechanic to your day to day life.
Self Motivation through Action & Reward: Intro
Without doubt, the number one law in all of gaming is to reward gamers for every positive thing they do. Whether it’s rewarding them for a kill with an awesome bloody animation, rewarding them for a counter-hit in a fighting game by taking off a chunk of the opponent’s health and playing an ultra animation (or other animation, whatever game you’re playing) or rewarding them for finding a key by having it open a door to reveal a beautiful new location for them to explore, games reward you for every positive thing you do.

Gameplay of Life: Self Motivation through Action & Reward
Once you truly understand what motivates you at work, you'll be unstoppable. By finding your true motivation for work you'll tap into a channel of energy, passion and determination that will fuel you to the top. But where does the motivation come from?
What Motivates You At Work? -- The Things you love and are passionate about
In order to truly answer the question of what motivates you at work and how we can all find motivation for work, I first need to take a detour. Sorry, but I'm going have to talk about myself for a bit in order to clarify where motivation comes from.
How I learned that the best motivation for work comes from what you know and love
Of late, I’ve had something of a division in my mind. As a self employed writer and actor, I always find myself trying to create work that is simultaneously for a large audience and a small audience. I want to create work which can be read by whoever should pop up on this website from the search engine or from anywhere Read more [...]
It;s said that money is evil and that money is the route of all evil. But is that really true? I used to believe so, but then I had a spark of realisation.
Money is Evil -- Is Money The Route of All Evil?
For the longest time I have had a problem with money. And when I say for the longest time I mean every day of my life until ten seconds ago. You see, I'm writing this after a surge of inspiration (as I write most of my articles on here). Anyway. . . I have always thought that money is evil, and this thought has affected me entire life. I've had trouble asking for money for things, often working for free, making significantly less than I had the potential to, simply because of my obsessive thought that money is evil.
Then, like a flash out of the pan, two seconds ago, I suddenly saw through this obsessive thought and was able to see money in a whole new light.
What I'm about to say, for many, will be the biggest "Well, DUH!" statement ever (probably). For others, Read more [...]
One Simple Tip for Motivation & Productivity
Normally these articles are written in top 10s, figuring that ten tips is about the right amount for a page, but so helpful is this tip that it gets the spotlight all to its lonesome self. The very simple yet very, very effective tip for motivation and productivity is this
Put everything in your head out into the real world.
Any ideas, even seemingly stupid ideas, write them out and put them on the wall.
If you’re trying to work out your finances, write it out and put it on the wall. If you have an image of your work stuck in your head (for instance, this author often sees the image of his book cover sitting pretty at the front of a book store). Print the image out and put it somewhere you’ll see it often.
Literally, everything that occupies your mind, give a real world presence to. The reason is simple yet powerful. When you take what’s currently in your mind and put it out into the real world, via writing, drawing or Read more [...]

This is a really funky upbeat video of an awesome painting of Marvin Gaye created by TKnightArt. There's a few reasons we've included this video in the Personal Development Through Entertainment archive. First off, the painting itself is a brilliant piece of work; the use of colour and light reflecting truthfully the expression of Marvin Gaye in the source image.
Secondly, the video is backed by an awesome track: Marvin Gaye's Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler). You can't go far wrong with such a great song.
Finally, the speed of the video and the the sense of progression it produces is very inspiring of productivity and hard work. Through some miracle, this video actually serves to make the viewer want to work.
All in all a great video and a great painting.
