Feel like doing something different?


Feel like doing something different?

There’s always a good reason for an excursion with your family, friends or classmates. Theme parks, zoos, exhibitions or museums? Or would you rather take a trip to town, or do something more energetic?or, even, doing nothing.....sometimes you have to do something, but you don´t feel like doing it.
If you have to do something you don't feel like doing, what do you do?
Often, people will try to push against the emotional resistance they feel. Other times, they sit back in frustration as they put off a task. This scenario can easily seem like a psychological trap. Fortunately, there is a way to break through.

Instructions about "How to Do Something When You Don't Feel Like Doing It":

1.Think of a task you don't feel like doing. This task will be your focus for the next five steps....Pense em uma tarefa que você não tem vontade de fazer. Esta tarefa será o seu foco para as próximas cinco etapas.

2.Think of always doing this task and get in touch with how you feel about this.


3.Bring all your attention to the feelings arising in your body and observe them. Welcome them as they start to dissolve.


4.Think of never doing this task and get in touch with how you feel about this.


5.Bring all your attention to the feelings arising in your body and observe them. Welcome them as they start to dissolve.


6.When you go back to step 1, you can think of the same task you don't feel like doing or another task you don't want to do. Repeat the steps above until you feel like you are finished. Once you feel like you are done, there's a good chance that you'll be able to do the task you didn't feel like doing.

Como sempre, se for necessário use o recurso "tradutor" acima à direita, mas cuidado com a tradução.

Idiom: Como dizer "estar a fim de fazer [de algo; estar com vontade"


Feel like doing (something)
What does feel like doing (something) mean? O que significa "feel like doing (something)"?
It means to be in the mood to do something, to want to do something - significa estar a fim de fazer algo, estar a fim de algo, ou estar com vontade de algo.
Pois é, como todos as expressões idiomáticas é preciso tomar o cuidado com a tradução literal das palavras, vamos a alguns exemplos:

.I do not feel like doing the dishes now.
Não estou a fim de lavar a louça.
.I feel like going out. Do you feel like seeing a movie?
To a fim de sair. Tá a fim de ver um filme?
. If you are not feeling like going to the movies, we can watch a video instead.
Se você não está a fim de ir ao cinema, podemos assistir um video, ao invés de.

Essa expressão pode ser usada com um substantivo (estar a fim de algo), que fica
ainda mais estranho se traduzir ao pé da letra: "I feel like pizza" ao traduzir literalmente ficaria - Me sinto como uma pizza, mas claro que isto quer dizer "estou a fim de comer pizza", e não que você está se sentindo coberto de queijo.

No mesmo sentido, mas um pouco mais informal e especialmente na linguagem britânica usa-se a expressão "fancy doing(something)" :
. What do you fancy eating tonight? ...I fancy some Japanese food.
. What do you fancy for your lunch?
Esta expressão é também usada com o sentido de "estar a fim de alguém":
. All the guys I fancy don´t fancy me.
