But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful.
“The public is more familiar with bad design than good design. It is, in effect, conditioned to prefer bad design, because that is what it lives with. The new becomes threatening, the old reassuring.”
— Zac Nielson
Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain of itself, because it is pain, but because occasionally circumstances occur in which toil and pain can procure him some great pleasure. To take a trivial example, which of us ever undertakes laborious physical exercise, except to obtain some advantage from it?
But who has any right to find fault with a man who chooses to enjoy a pleasure that has no annoying consequences, or one who avoids a pain that produces no resultant pleasure? On the other hand, we denounce with righteous indignation and dislike men who are so beguiled and demoralized by the charms of pleasure of the moment, so blinded by desire, that they cannot foresee the pain and trouble that are bound to ensue; and equal blame belongs to those who fail in their duty through weakness of will, which is the same as saying through shrinking from toil and pain.

Thanks for the suggestions shared in your blog. Something also important I would like to mention is that losing weight is not exactly about going on a celebrity diet and trying to shed as much weight as you’re able in a couple of weeks. The most effective way to lose weight is by getting it bit by bit and following some basic ideas which can help you to make the most from your attempt to shed weight. You may learn and already be following some tips, however reinforcing expertise never affects.
very nice submit, i certainly love this web site, carry on it

I believe that avoiding highly processed foods could be the first step for you to lose weight. They may taste very good, but refined foods contain very little vitamins and minerals, making you take more simply to have enough vigor to get over the day. When you are constantly eating these foods, transferring to cereals and other complex carbohydrates will aid you to have more energy while feeding on less. Thanks alot : ) for your blog post.
I just added this blog to my rss reader, excellent stuff. Cannot get enough!
