Doing, actions and behaviour

Doing: engaging in an activity.
Action: doing something to achieve an aim.
Behaviour: the way in which we act or conduct ourselves, especially towards others; the way in which we behave in response to a particular situation or stimulus.

Doing, actions and behaviour are actively entwined with our thoughts, thinking and mental state as well as our emotions, feelings and mood. In turn, these can affect our motivation and energy levels.

Motivation: to have a reason, need or purpose to do something; to be driven to start or complete something.
Energy levels: the will and energy to do things can fluctuate at different times. This can sometimes be a result of diet or different times of the calendar, or it could be due to the delicate balance of our emotional, psychological and active systems.

Is it worth exploring your own notions of doing – along with not doing – and then applying them to your own life, your own set of circumstances?
