离开电视、电脑还可以做的
5
件事


For many of us, it can be tough to imagine unplugging for a couple of hours:
Technology has become somewhat of a crutch. But, connecting off-screen is
something worth prioritizing every now and again. Check out some things to do
without technology in the slideshow below.
对很多人来说，
与科技暂别几个小时似乎十分煎熬，
毕竟从某种程度上，
它已经成为了我们
的拐杖。< br>但暂时脱离它却是我们现在就该做的首要事情。
看看下面能让你暂别科技的事情吧。

1. Cooking

烹饪

I just got an amazing cookbook and I intend to use it, despite possible paper
cuts and
incessant
page turning. Cooking requires love as well as undivided
attention. Keeping the chicken from burning and the house from going up in
flames will keep you busy enough to turn off the phone. < br>刚买了本超棒的烹饪书，
千万别怕可能会割到手或翻起来麻烦，
是时候派上用场啦。烹饪需
要爱，
和高度的注意力。
要确保厨房甚至屋子不会着火，
我想你应 该完全没有时间再看手机
了吧。

2. Wondering

思考

This one sounds weird because it is. It is completely weird to wonder about
anything with a smartphone. We shouldn’t take for granted that we have access
to more knowledge than in any other time in history. We should give ourselves
time to think about the question before knowing the answer.
这个听起来有点奇怪， 也的确挺怪。
手机在手，你还花时间思考就显得更诡异了。
但我们可
不能想当然的认为 正处于最发达的时代，
拥有获得更多知识的途径。
在知道答案之前，
我们
应该 给自己一点时间去思考问题。

3. Talking

交谈

Kids think less of texting in the middle of a conversation. As we get older we
learn that it’s really rude. Turn your phone off when you’re out to coffee with
friends. Don’t take their time and attention for granted. Otherwise they’ll grow
up without you.
孩子们在谈话时很少会去发短信。
可对 于我们而言似乎很难做到。
和朋友喝咖啡的时候不妨
关上手机吧。别浪费他们的时间和注意力， 否则你就会不知不觉失去这些朋友们。



4. Dating

约会

Terrifying. The other end of an instant message convo is a broad wall from which
to ask someone out on a date. It’s an even bigger wall when you carry on a
relationship online. Save some stories and compliments so that you and your
mate look forward to seeing each other in person.
真恐怖。发短信犹如一面大墙阻碍了你们出来约会。网恋的话，这 种情况会更糟糕。留点小
故事和赞美吧，你们才会希望可以面对面的交谈。

5. Writing

写作

Good handwriting is one of those things like books and records that are fading
from popular culture. But like
vinyl
and a good book cover, handwriting will
always has its charm. Even if it’s bad, there’s something about a handwritten
note that makes you want to frame it.
现代文明下，
写一手 好字也和纸质书籍、
磁带一样逐渐退出我们的生活。
但正如好的唱片和
书籍封面一样，
字迹也有着自己的魅力。
就算字写的不是很好看，
但也总有那么一张手写便
条 会让你不禁想裱起来。




Here are 10 Ways to Make Some Motivation Today:
这里有
10
条让你在今天可以鼓舞自己的方法。

1. Win Early

成功要趁早

The early bird not only gets the worm, but has a spring in its step all day long.
Get something d
one early, and you’ll get things done all day long.

早 起的鸟儿不仅有虫吃，
而且也为这一天开了个好头。
早点动手完成，
那么这一天的事也 就
差不多完成了。

2. Change the Game

改变规则

If you aren’t winning, you may need to change the game. Change the rules,
even break them. Do things differently if you want different results.
如果你无法胜出，那你需要改变下游戏本身。改变规则，
甚至是打破规则。
如果你想要不寻
常的结果，那你就要以不寻常的方式 去做。

3. Celebrate the Small Wins

庆祝小成功

Big wins aren’t going to happen every day. Learn to celebrate the small progress.
It’s these little victories that add up over the long
-term.
大成就不会每天都有，
学会庆祝那些小小的进步。< br>正是这些小成功经年累月才能积累成为大
成就。

4. Believe in Yourself

相信自己

Nothing generates motivation like confidence. Believe in yourself. No one is
going to be your bigger fan than you. You are stronger and better than you think.
Believe it.
没有什么能比自信更能激励自己了。
相信自己！
没 人比你更有资格做自己的铁杆粉丝。
你比
你自己认为的还要强大和杰出！你要相信这一点。
5. Prepare for Your Day

时刻准备

Being “ready” is motivating. When you are prepared for your day, you are
excited to get it going. Take some time to prepare and you’ll be ready to charge
into your day.
时刻准备着就是一种激励 。
当你已经为自己的胜利日做好了准备，
你就会迫不及待开展行动。
花些时间准备准备 ，你成功的一天将指日可待。

6. Do Something You Enjoy

做你喜欢的事

To kick up your motivation, do something you enjoy. Find a task that you enjoy
doing and use that to get you started.
为了鼓舞自己，做些你喜欢的事吧。找一个你喜欢做的任务，从它开始吧。

7. Plan Your Dreams

规划你的梦想

When today has got you down, plan for tomorrow. It’s not about living in a
daydream, but putting steps in place to get you to your dreams.
今天你挫败了，
那么规划好明天。
这不是说活在白日梦里，
而是要有条不紊地计划好步骤让
自己实现梦想。

8. Do Something Physical

做些运动

If you want to pump up your motivation, then hit the gym. Or simply do
something physical. Go for a jog or walk. Get your body moving, and it will stay
that way. Exercise is a great
motivator
.
如果你想给自己 一些动力，
那么去健身房吧。
或只是做些简单运动也可以，
比如慢跑或是散
步 。让身体动一动，那身体就会保持这种状态。锻炼是一种很好的鼓舞方式。

9. Take Care of Loose Ends

好好收尾

Sometimes you are unmotivated because you are carrying around a mental load
of undone tasks. Take care of the ones that are weighing on your brain so that
you can move forward in your day.
有时候你毫无动力，
因为你正承受着来自没有完成的工作的精神压力。
处理那些增加大脑负荷的事情，这样你才能前进。

10. Connect With Someone Positive

10.
与积极的人交往

Positive attitudes are contagious. Connect with other positive people. Multiple
positive attitudes lead to
exponential
motivation as a group.
积极的态度是会传染的。和积极的人相处，积极的态度会让整个群体的动力指数迅速增长。

You don’t have to mope through your day. When life doesn’t provide inspiration,
create your own. Just a little action can inspire you to big things. So, make your
own motivation today. 你不必一整天忧心忡忡的。
当生活不给我们任何鼓励，
那我们就自己创造。
只一点 小小的行
动就能激励你着手大事。因此，今天给自己一些动力吧。



















how you can add a significant amount of depth, and thus
strength, to your relationships and make your social life a
whole lot more meaningful.



1. Meet More People

多认识人

This is an apparent
paradox
, but the quality of the people you meet has
considerably to do with the quantity of people you meet.
显然这有点自相矛盾，但人际
“
质量
”
确实跟 交往
“
数量
”
有很大关系。

If you don’t know a lot of people and you barely meet one or two new people
every season of the year, considering the variety of individuals out there, you
won’t meet very often people who are a good match with you in terms of
personality, interests and values.
如果你交游寥寥，
一年四季只结交一两个人，
想想你还有那么多各种各样不曾结识的人，
那
你确实很难认识跟自己脾气、爱好、观念 相投的人了。

And since this natural match plays a huge part in building strong relationships,
you’ll just as seldom have the opportunity to develop strong relationships.

而性格相投对牢固的人际关 系又是如此关键，所以那样你更难有机会建立良好的人际关系
了。

Conversely, if you go out a lot, you meet a lot of new people and you constantly
expand your social circle, you’re much more likely to meet people you match up
well with, and these people have a tremendous potential to become good
friends, reliable partners, etc.
相反，
如果 你经常出去结识各种各样的人，
社交圈就会不断扩大，
你会喜欢跟脾气相投的人
打成一 片，而这些人极有可能成为你的好朋友、好基友等等。

This is why it’s important to meet more people.

所以多结交朋友很重要。

2. Talk about the Things That Matter To You

讲讲自己在乎的事情

A relationship becomes the strongest when two people discover they believe in
the same things and have similar interests. It’s these commonalities regarding
values and interests that create the strongest emotional connection.
当两个人发现彼此的信仰和兴趣 都很相像时，
俩人的关系必然会加深。
确实，
价值观和兴趣
爱好都能搭建起牢 固的情感纽带。

I’ve noticed that many people ke
ep conversations shallow. They talk about
trivial stuff such as the weather, what’s on TV, the lives of various movie stars,
but they rarely talk about what really matters to them in life.
我发现很多人的交谈都比较泛泛。
人们一般只会谈些天气、
电视节目、< br>电影明星八卦等琐碎
话题，很少触及各自生活中他们最在乎的部分。

This
is a mistake from my perspective, because it’s the perfect method for a
relationship to not develop.
我觉得这样大错特错，是扼杀一段人际关系的杀手锏。

Talk about the things that truly matter to you and give others a chance to know
what you care about and what you believe in. If they believe in the same things
and they care about the same things, they’ll eagerly let you know. Thus you’ll
find meaningful common ground and you’ll feel more connected.

应该谈些自己在乎的话题，
让别人知道你关心什么 、
相信什么。
如果碰巧他们相信和在乎的
事情刚好跟你的一样，他们肯定会迫不及待地 跟你分享。这样你便能找到有趣的共同话题，
你们的关系也会更加亲密了。

3. Express Vulnerability

展现脆弱的一面

Many people try to come off as perfect. They don’t talk about their failures, they
hide their shortcomings and they never say anything that could embarrass
them.
许多人总想表现得完美无缺。
他们不 愿谈起失败经历，
对自己的缺点遮遮掩掩，
也从不说些
会使自己尴尬的事情。

This is all just a
facade
though. You may appear perfect to some, but you know
you’re not perfect and they know that too. You’re only human and humans have
flaws.
可 这一切都只是表象而已。或许你在某些人面前表现得很完美，但你很清楚自己并不完美，
何况他们也看得 出来。你是个人，人无完人，都会有缺点。

However, by hiding your flaws, what you do succeed in is appearing cold and
impersonal. You seem like a marble statue rather than a real person. And this
makes it very hard for anyone to connect with you emotionally.
