If you don't do some things now, you will never do them in your life

Chapter 12 Take off the watch and turn off the phone (1)
Spend the day quietly You wear a watch every day, always follow the direction of the hour hand, and arrange your own plans.

You are always chasing the clock and wearing yourself out.You follow the time mechanically, hoping to have a watch that will never be wrong, but because of the existence of the watch, you are always on your way, complaining about the flight being late, and the meeting dragging on for an hour...

The quality of time is equal to the quality of life.If you take a day, forget the existence of time, and experience the feeling of not being bound by time every minute and every second.It's also a nice survival experience.

Don't turn on your phone, don't wear a watch.Make you unable to know the time all day.

Not wearing a watch is not to make you forget the time, but to let yourself control the scale of time.

Give yourself a day without "necessities" such as watches and mobile phones, and find a reasonably comfortable place, quiet, and no one will disturb you.

Get up in the morning, do some exercise near you, preferably a run, get some fresh air, smile, and think that a good day is about to begin.

Instead of answering the phone, play your favorite song for yourself.Give yourself a day off, not let yourself do nothing.

It's okay to read a book, or continue to finish your work in front of the computer, or take an occasional nap, and the outside world continues to go on.

Let everything be done at your leisure.On this day, savor carefully; all the pain, let it settle, don't linger.At this moment, coffee and cigarettes are not necessarily needed, just a glass of water.

If you need to surf the Internet, don't read current affairs, politics or celebrity gossip. Today, you don't care about those things, and you can't get involved. You just want to have a good day by yourself.

Focus on any moment of solitude and overcome the anxieties and fears that external information can bring you.

At this moment, you have no time to regret the past, and no time to worry about the future.

At this moment, there will be no heavy pressure and burden on you.

Life will always be disturbed by all kinds of people, day after day, we forget a person's life.

People, from birth to death, are not a matter of one person, so that we always complicate things to the point that we feel very bored.

Adjust yourself well, relaxation does not mean boring yourself, you can sort out your mood silently.

Leave some space and time for yourself, concentrate on your own world as much as possible, and reject the interference of external information.

At this moment, forget all the pain in reality, and quietly endure what you perceive and experience.

Peace of mind will compensate for all the suffering experienced.Let something of peace and tranquility come back inside and recover from the stress of everyday life.

Skip work.

Who doesn't want to enjoy the happiness of "stealing half a day's leisure" in the busy and tossing life.The thrill of skipping work is unparalleled.

Allow yourself to skip a shift.

You don't have to wake up early in the morning to wash up and rush through breakfast.You don't have to be a sardine in the subway on a weekday, or walk on a crowded street early in the morning.

You can go for a walk in the park alone, smell the fragrance of flowers, and listen to the birdsong; you can also go climbing, stand on the heights of the city and look into the distance, or go to the cinema alone to watch a movie that you have wanted to watch for a long time. .

If you are afraid of being caught, stay at home quietly.On this day, you can watch a rented video at your leisure, read a particularly bad novel, cook yourself a big lunch, and catch up with a few friends.If your friend is on the phone and is anxious about work, your mood may be more satisfied because of this comparison.Buy an elegant notebook and write a diary.

When you look at a diary full of emotions again, will you feel a sense of comfort and emotion, there will be many experiences that you will not think of now, when you see some interesting things appear in your diary Would have wondered if all that interesting stuff really happened.Seeing that you once went crazy over a trivial matter, but now thinking about it, it is really worthless!

The human brain does not have much time to record those trivial joys and sorrows, but the diary will not disappear because of the passage of time.

So, in order to let you have enough good memories when you get old, buy a beautiful diary and start writing.

Go to a stationery store, or a small gift shop.Pick a notebook that you like.

From now on, record the stories that make you excited, happy, and sad.

It can be your own, or it can be a story you have heard or seen.In short, those that are closely related to your life should be carefully recorded.

When you have a strong feeling in your heart, or have a meaningful thought, instead of telling others, write it in your journal.When writing, tell yourself that the diary is written for yourself many years later, so be honest and don't embellish.

Small things are worth noting, even if they don't make sense or make you unhappy.Don't check what you've written, and don't think about whether it's well written or not.

You don't have to write every day, you can write when you want to, but there must be continuity. What's the point of writing two articles a year?
Of course, there is no need to regard it as a task. It is not bad to write three or five articles a month, but a little more will be better.

Don't just write it down, think about what these things mean to you along the way.

Although both computers and blogs can do such things, if you write in a diary, the feeling will be different, and it will be safer, because the diary will not crash and encounter hackers.Do regular physical examinations.

Anna is one of the friends I met during the trip. She is a senior executive of a foreign company with excellent work ability, but she seldom pays attention to her health.Last year, she suddenly felt that something was wrong with her, and she always felt uncomfortable everywhere.

So I suggested to her to find a reliable institution and have a medical examination.

She followed my advice and went for a full body physical.

Before entering the medical examination center, she was very nervous, afraid of finding out some unacceptable diseases.

However, when she got the medical report a few days later, she called me very happily and said: "I feel more relaxed and happy than ever, because the medical report shows that I am only a little short-sighted, and everything else is normal."

Knowing that you are a healthy person is a pleasant thing.

The doctor also told her that she was a little overtired and should pay more attention to rest and exercise properly.

So, she started exercising.She started with aerobics at a health club and later learned to swim.Now, her body is getting more and more fit, and her complexion is getting better and better.

In the jargon of psychology: "People who are physically and mentally healthy have internal control and do not rely on external control."

A healthy body will bring a lot of self-confidence, and make oneself get in touch with the outside world more harmoniously, and it also proves that one has the "capital of revolution" to do whatever one wants to do. "

People who are physically and mentally healthy do not blame others or complain about the world, no matter what difficulties they encounter, they are full of self-confidence.

Health can bring you an inner strength and can influence the direction of your life.

Like Anna, you can decide to change some old and ineffective life habits to make yourself better and healthier.This sounds simple and innocent, but think about it, isn't this the truth? !
Here's what you can try: Start contacting a medical exam right now.Find a time to tinker with something old.

Does your kitchen have a light in need of a change?Or have a chair at home that needs to be readjusted?Or an electric fan with a poor wiring.Do you have an overused map that needs to be taped?It's these simple things.

While one has time, do some tinkering work, you will find the joy of tinkering.

It makes sense to make the best use of everything.

Think about everything you've ever used and remember how special, shiny, and flawless it was when you first started using it?After the tempering of time, they lost their luster and integrity at that time, but they spent a period of time with you. A person with a sensitive heart will not throw away his old things at will.Cherish every thing you own, because they are unique and have different meanings to you. Sometimes what people need is not just the object itself, but the story it carries.

You do your best to get it as close to the original as possible with the best parts, glue, wood, etc.

As you do this, reflect on how much joy this object has brought you.

Keep them working and you'll save a ton of money.Organize your photos.

Sometimes I think about it, isn't a person's life just made up of a bunch of photos?
Photos are important because they represent memories.

Photographs are only evidence of a person's life history, but at the same time they are an excellent reminder of lost time.A photo album is the single most desirable and indelible keepsake.

Therefore, old photos should be cherished.In order to make your memories more clear and vivid, please organize your photos, or make an album for them.

Did you take a picture of yourself behind a model paper airplane as a child?Your face comes through a small hole, you look like a pilot?

When you were young, did you put your hands on your hips in high spirits and look into the distance?Or mingle with your friends, laughing all over the place... The way you danced on stage for the first time, the way you ran hard at your first sports meeting, and the joy of going camping with friends for the first time, Because looking at the photos, you will recall the details about those things, and unconsciously bring you into sweet memories.

There are also kind and respectable parents, who appear in different looks in these photos.

The moment the light is printed on the photo, it will be frozen forever.

Life changes a lot as the relentless years pass.When we gradually forget the past, only photos provide us with the most authentic memories.

If you haven't opened the photo album for a long time to look at the photos you took before, you can take a good look at it in an hour or two today.Maybe you'll find a long-lost joy.

The photo with a happy smile must be placed at the top.

Make a photo album of your growing up.

Choose the most representative, meaningful, and emotional photos from all your photos.Pick a photo that reminds you of a special time or place, who were you with?What are you doing?What was so special about those times?
You can choose one for one year, five for one year, or one for five years, you decide.The important thing is that these photos are part of the story of your life.

Then put the photos in a chronological album, date each page, and that's fine.

You can share it with your lovers.

It's not an easy job, but it's worth the extra time to do it.Plant a fresh plant.

Planting a fresh plant for yourself highlights the meaning of time.

When you plant a seed and watch it thrive in the sun and rain, you will find that you will be amazed at every step of its growth.

You will find that it is not just a plant, it is also a life, sharing the same time and space experience with you.

It's yours, and you can laugh at it and tell stories about yourself.

Plants can not only bring brilliant colors and elegant fragrances to your home, but also allow you to experience its spirit with your heart.If you observe carefully, you will find that each plant has its unique posture to show people its own charm.

Of course, you can also give this plant a unique meaning, you can commemorate someone or something.

When you're watching it, you're reminded of that person, that event.

Remember to prune the branches and leaves for it, because everything is afraid of being left out, afraid of being alone, let alone a plant that you have given important meaning to?

If you are busy, you can raise a plant that does not require your careful attention and maintenance every day, such as an aloe vera, or a prickly pear, which is strong and independent.

You can also plant a tomato, pepper, coriander, celery and other spice plants on the balcony, and just plant them in a flower pot. Maybe one day when you want to eat a bowl of Yangchun noodles, you can pull out a green tree. Oh shallots.

You can do this with your lover and learn how plants grow together.

The three types of plants that are most suitable for indoors are:
1 Plants That Absorb Toxic Chemicals:

Aloe, Chlorophytum, Sansevieria, One-leaf Orchid, and Monstera are natural scavengers that can remove harmful substances in the air.Studies have shown that Sansevieria and Chlorophytum can absorb more than 80% of harmful gases indoors, and have a strong ability to absorb formaldehyde. Aloe is also a good absorber of formaldehyde.In addition, if the decoration owner wants to test the environmental protection of his home decoration, he can place asparagus bamboo in different positions of the home.

2 Plants that can repel mosquitoes:

In addition, a plant called pyrethrum contains pyrethrins, which are also effective in repelling mosquitoes.

3 Plants that can kill germs:
Volatile oils produced by aromatic flowers such as roses, osmanthus, violets, and jasmine have significant bactericidal effects.

Plants such as crape myrtle, jasmine, and lemon can kill native bacteria such as diphtheria and dysentery within 5 minutes.

Cacti and other succulents native to tropical and arid regions have stomata on their fleshy stems closed during the day and opened at night. While absorbing carbon dioxide, they produce oxygen and increase the concentration of negative ions in the indoor air.

Plant climbing plants such as ivy, grapes, morning glory, wisteria, and rose around the home, and let them climb along the wall or frame to form a green pergola, which can effectively reduce sunlight radiation and greatly reduce the indoor temperature.

The eugenol emitted by lilac flowers has a bactericidal ability that is more than 5 times stronger than carbonic acid.Therefore, these flowers can aromatize the brain, prevent certain infectious diseases, and relieve toothache.
