We all know someone who lives a fulfilling life. This is a person who manages to maintain a busy but seemingly balanced life, filled with variety, satisfaction and joy, or, as such a life is also called, a non-stop life.
But what does a “full life” look like around the world? Does it mean different things to different people in different cultures? And most importantly, how can we all get closer to living a fulfilling life?
To find out how to live non-stop, we asked a number of opinion leaders around the world.
"Presence"
“Being in the moment, being awake and alive, and being able to enjoy things now. Don’t worry about the past and don’t put off happiness until the future,” Dr Jus Meyer, a doctor at Fremantle Hospital in Western Australia.
“We need to be introspective to live a meaningful life. The most successful people I know have been deeply aware of their strengths and have taken on tasks, jobs, careers, friendships, partners, experiences, adventures, projects and hobbies of all kinds that play to those strengths." - Dr. Anthony L. Rose psychologist, president and CEO of the Biosynergy Institute in Rancho Palos Verdes, California.
“Non-stop” is non-stop: origin, rules of use:
Non-stop is a fairly common expression that can be heard on the radio, read in announcements of city events, seen on social networks or found in colloquial speech.
Some consider it colloquial and even slang, but philologists assure that it takes its rightful place in the Russian language, although it appeared relatively recently. If you want to know exactly what this word means, and also understand when it is appropriate to use it in speech, our article will be very useful to you.
Origin of the word
Even someone who learned English a long time ago and cannot boast of deep knowledge probably understands that “non-stop” is an expression that came to us precisely from this language. Literally it is translated as “without stopping,” that is, without interruption for any pause. As a rule, it describes some kind of continuous process.
Syntactic and morphological properties
According to modern dictionaries, non-stop is an inanimate masculine noun. It belongs to the second declension. It can be declined according to cases, as provided by the rules of the Russian language. In this case, the first part of “non” remains unchanged, the ending is added to the part “stop”.
Semantics
It is worth remembering that the expression “non-stop” is not always a noun. It can act as an adjective (non-stop) and an adverb (non-stop).
But most often this expression denotes an event of long duration, during which there are no pauses or stops.
Examples of using the expression
The easiest way to understand what non-stop is is with an example. Many cinemas broadcast films without pauses. As a rule, the event is scheduled for a less popular time. For example, a non-stop session can be overnight. Several films are broadcast one after another. The viewer can save on the ticket. The entire session will cost less than several tickets for the same films. During a non-stop session, it is permissible to come and leave at any convenient time.
Radio broadcasting can occur continuously. A great example is broadcasting music from a festival that lasts several days in a row.
The word is often used for naming or advertising campaigns. It is perfect for the name of a 24-hour laboratory, diagnostic center, legal or psychological support consultation center, carrier company, delivery service, as well as many other organizations that are ready to provide services at any time convenient for the client.
"Thank you"
“Gratitude for even the smallest things in our lives can have a huge impact. Taking just five minutes a day to list the things you are grateful for can completely change your outlook on life,” Elizabeth Mack, a practicing psychotherapist in Los Angeles.
“Gratitude is a quality that is found only in those who are happy. Gratitude helps us realize what we have so that happiness does not seem alien,” - Asta Ahluwalia, counseling psychologist, New Delhi.
“People who live fulfilling lives don't pretend there's nothing bad or undesirable about them, they just learn from those situations. Because they are willing to learn from life's experiences, they may be more grateful for the lessons learned." - Leo Willcox, Sydney-based stress consultant.
Physical health is also an integral part of a fulfilling life. Experts say this is important in itself, but also as a basis for a person's mental and spiritual life.
Smart nonstop MTS: tariff description
You should carefully study the MTS “Smart Non Stop” tariff; the description will help with this. What conditions are currently offered:
- You can use the program for 350 rubles per month.
- 10 GB of internet is provided for daytime use.
- Unlimited at night.
- You can call MTS numbers in your home region without restrictions.
- 300 minutes are provided to other networks.
- An additional 300 messages are issued.
The conditions are not bad. For 350 rubles, the subscriber receives a large traffic package, unlimited night time, and minutes for calls within the home region. If you study offers from other operators, the cost will be approximately similar.
If you have friends and relatives with MTS, you can communicate without restrictions.
It is possible to make many calls, there is complete unlimited coverage within the operator’s home network.
The disadvantage is the SMS package. Most clients hardly use messages, or rarely use them. Due to the development of instant messengers, they are not in great demand, and the operator is trying to sell the service and earn additional profit.
Overall, Smart nonstop is a good and balanced tariff. But traffic must be spent evenly. Save your package so you don't have to pay for additional options to extend your speed.
Holistic Wellbeing
“Maintaining well-being means paying balanced attention to three areas: mind, body and spirit,” Elizabeth Mack, Los Angeles.
“To live a fulfilling life, you need to take care of your mind, body and soul. I think the secret is to balance this tripod with exercises that will help you develop the discipline to achieve your life goals. Meditation or any other relaxing activity will help you focus and take care of your body with healthy food,” Claudia Fujii, life coach and founder of Mayu Coaching, Sao Paulo.
“Get enough sleep, breathe, take breaks, exercise and watch your diet. Exercise releases endorphins, which trigger positive emotions in the body,” Dr. Nupur Kohli, a physician at the Academic Medical Center in Amsterdam.
Generosity
“Give everything to those in need until you are empty, and then you will have room for satisfaction so that you can give again and again and again. After all, a fulfilled person is one who has synergistically created well-being in his life and in the lives of everyone he has touched,” Dr. Anthony L. Rose, Biosynergy Institute.
“Come on, come on, give what you can. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing others smile because of your efforts.” - Dr. K. J. Chowdhury, MD, Senior Consultant, Pain Management, Indraprastha Apollo Hospital, New Delhi.
Current situation
How to switch to a non-stop tariff on MTS now? It has been officially closed since March 27, 2018. What does this mean for subscribers?
- Customers will not be able to enroll in the plan.
- You can't switch to it.
- Subscribers who managed to join the program can continue to use it.
- The possibility of adjusting the conditions in the future cannot be ruled out.
- After a few years, the company may completely close the program and transfer the remaining subscribers to another tariff.
Don't look for ways to switch to a closed plan, they don't exist. When looking for a solution, you may encounter scammers. The result is a loss of money and time, deception.
There is no hope that the proposal will be revived. The company constantly creates programs and updates the line. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a different solution.
Positivity
“Positivity is a thought. And this thought must be constant. A simple “thank you”, “excuse me”, smiling at a stranger, helping people we know (or don’t know) is what contributes to everyday happiness.” - Asta Ahluwalia, Consulting Psychologist, New Delhi.
“Self-criticism and negative thinking are the enemies of happiness and self-fulfillment. Our thoughts are the food with which we feed our mind. When we can motivate ourselves with self-compassion, we are truly on the path to health and well-being." - Elizabeth Mack from Los Angeles.
“Start your own journey today. Stop and think about your lifestyle. Try to immerse yourself. What are your values? What is important to you in your personal and professional life? What inspires and motivates you: is your life or will your life lead you? It’s a matter of choice,” Claudia Fujii, life coach and founder of Mayu Coaching, Sao Paulo.
