5個簡單方法 打造好心情

Here are 5 simple ways to increase your peace of mind:

1. Do your most daunting task first thing in the morning

將最艱巨的任務放在早晨。


It's tempting to start your day with easy tasks. Don't. Pushing a daunting task back is like holding a glass of water in an outstretched arm. At first nothing happens, but if you do it for hours or even days, you will soon feel the stress. Do the most annoying task first thing in the morning, and enjoy increased productivity and peace of mind for the rest of the day.

人們總是傾向于用簡單的任務開始一天的工作，別這樣做。將艱巨的任務拖到后面就像你伸開手臂舉著杯子，開始沒什么，但是隨著時間的推移，你會很快感覺到壓力。將最艱巨的任務放在早晨，這樣你就能享受到效率提升及一天中剩下時間的平靜帶來的愜意。


2. Let go of things you don't control

放開你不能控制的事情


Make the most of what you do control, and don't worry about what you don't.

將你能掌控的事情做到最好，但也不用太在意不能左右的事情。


3. Don't worry about what others are thinking

不必擔心別人的想法


不要擔心別怎么看你，可能他們還在擔心別人會怎么看他們呢.



4. List 3 things you love about your situation right now

列出3件你喜愛的事情


Just list 3 simple things about any part of your life that you love. Like “3 simple things I love about the room I'm in right now”, or “3 simple things I love about this week”, or anything else.

列出生活中你喜愛的3件簡單的事情，如：這個屋子我最喜歡的3個地方，或這個星期我最喜歡的3件事，或是其他的什么。

This is a great technique if you're ever bored while stuck in traffic, or waiting in the grocery store checkout lane. You can immediately transform boredom into happiness and peace of mind!

在你堵車或排隊而感到無聊的時候這個技巧就會顯得尤為有用，你能立即把無聊的感覺一掃而光，取而代之的是幸福和平靜。


5. Walk to a window, look outside, and take a single deep breath

走向窗前望向窗外，深呼吸。

Just walk to a window, look outside, and then take a single deep breath, focusing only on that breath and nothing else in the whole world. This technique sounds extremely simple, but you won't believe how much it can instantaneously increase your peace of mind.

走向窗前望向窗外，深呼吸。將注意力集中到這次呼吸上并忘掉其他的一切。這聽起來及其簡單，但是你很難想象這樣做能立即給你帶來平靜的心情。
