维生素b6说明书阅读理解
There’s an energy crisis in America, and it has nothing to do with fossil fuels. Millions of us get up each morning already weary over the day holds. “I just can’t get started.” People say. But it’s not physical energy that most of us lack. Sure, we could all u extra sleep and a better diet. But in truth, people are healthier today than at any time in history. I can almost guarantee that if you long for more energy, the problem is not with your body.
What you’re eking is not physical energy. It’s emotional energy. Yet, sad to say life sometimes ems designed to exhaust our supply. We work too hard. We have family obligations (义务). We encounter (遭遇) emergencies and personal cris. No wonder so many of us suffer from emotional fatigue (疲劳), a kind of utter exhaustion of the spirit.
迎风而立作文And yet we all know people who are filled with joy, despite the unpleasant circumstances of their lives. Even as a child I obrved people who were poor or disabled or ill, but who neve
壮阔的近义词rtheless faced life with optimism and vigor (活力). Consider Laura Hillenbrand, who despite
an extremely weak body wrote the best-ller Seabiscuit. Hillenbrand barely had enough physical energy to drag herlf out of bed to write. But she was fueled by having a story she wanted to share. It was emotional energy that helped her succeed. Unlike physical energy, which is finite (有限的) and diminishes (减少) with age, emotional energy is unlimited and has nothing to do with genes or upbringing. So how do you get it? You can’t simply tell yourlf to be positive. You must take action. Here are six practical strategies that work.
1. Do something new.
Very little that’s new occurs in our lives. The impact of this sameness on our emotional energy is gradual, but huge: It’s like a tire(轮胎) with a slow leak(漏). You don’t notice it at first, but eventually you’ll get a flat. It’s up to you to plug the leak—even though there are always a dozen reasons to stay stuck in your dull routines of life. That’s where Maura,
36, a waitress, found herlf a year ago. Fortunately, Maura had a lifeline—a group of women friends who meet
regularly to discuss their lives. Their lively discussions spurred Maura to make small but nevertheless life altering changes. She joined a gym in the next town. She changed her look with a
short haircut and new black T-shirts. Eventually, Maura gathered the courage to quit her job and start her own business. Here’s a challenge: If it’s something you wouldn’t ordinarily do, do it. Try 学而不思>祝我生日快乐英语
a dish you’ve never eaten. Listen to music you’d ordinarily tune out. You’ll discover the small things add to your emotional energy.
2. Reclaim life’s meaning.
仓库6sSo many of my patients tell me that their lives ud to have meaning, but that somewhere along the line things went stale (厌倦的). The first step in solving this meaning shortage is
to figure out what you really care about, and then do something about it. A ca in point is Ivy, 57, a pioneer in investment banking. “I mistakenly believed that all the money I made would mean something.” she says. “But I feel lost, like a 22-year-old wondering what to do with her life.” Ivy’s solution? She started a program that shows Wall Streeters how to donate time and money to poor children. In the process, Ivy filled her life with meaning.
怪味花生的做法3. Put yourlf in the fun zone.
平淡幸福的唯美句子Most of us grown-ups are riously fun-deprived(缺乏的). High-energy people have the same day-to-day work as the rest of us, but they manage to find something enjoyable in every situation. A real estate broker I know keeps herlf amud on the job by mentally redecorating the hous she shows to clients(客户). “I love imagining what even the most run-down hou could look like with a little tender loving care,” she says. “It’s a challenge—and the least desirable properties are usually the most fun.” We all define fun differently, of cour, but I can guarantee this: If you put just a bit of it into your day, you energy will increa quickly
4. Bid farewell (告别)to guilt and regret.
Everyone’s past is filled with regrets that still cau pain. But from an emotional energy point of view, they are dead weights that keep us from moving forward. While they can’t merely be willed away, I do recommend you remind yourlf that whatever happened in the past, nothing can change that. Holding on to the memory only allows the damage to continue into the prent.
