Recently, I discussed the value of investing in yourself - putting time and money into improving you, not building assets. Today, we’ll look at one area of investing in yourself as part of an ongoing series on the topic, spread out once per weekday over two weeks. If you’d like to review all the entries, look at the investing in yourself subcategory.

Most of the time, I’m a reasonably happy and content person. I feel upbeat about my own life and I feel in touch with the world around me. Sure, I occasionally dive into melancholic moods, but compared to my mental state several years ago, things are going incredibly well for me.

It’s not easy, though. I spend time virtually every day keeping my mind in good shape and keeping my spiritual self - that sense of connecting with things I don’t fully understand - in shape, too. Without proper care and feeding - without a little regular time investment - it’s easy to watch these areas of your life wear down, leaving you feeling constantly exhausted, unhappy, and feeling rather empty on the inside.

Obviously, one big part of this puzzle is to eat well and to engage in exercise, two specific areas that will be addressed in other essays on investing in yourself. Another one may actually be proper care for psychological ailments - if you feel you need such help, getting that help can be a profound investment of your time and money. Beyond that, here are some things that you can do to shore up your mental and spiritual health.

Pray and/or meditate every day
Just try this, right now. Close your eyes, then breathe in deeply, hold it for about a second, breathe out completely, hold that for about a second, and repeat it ten times. While you’re doing it, concentrate on letting every muscle in your body relax. If you need to think about something else, try to mentally return the most peaceful experience you’ve ever had in your life.

Got it? That’s meditation in a nutshell, albeit a one minute taste of it. I spend twenty minutes or so each day doing this, usually in conjunction with stretching and basic yoga. I usually do it each day right after work, in a quiet part of my home. Prayer can also be a part of this if you choose. Spend some of your time being thankful for the blessings in your life, and use the relaxation of a meditative state to recharge yourself mentally and spiritually. Here are a few tips to help you get into the groove.

Put aside a bit of time each day to pray or meditate. It can be in conjunction with other activities - I do mine along with stretching, for example, and one of my closest friends does a short meditation and prayer each day in the shower. Just clear your mind of the mental clutter of the moment and allow yourself to unwind.

Try several basic meditative techniques until you find one that works for you. There are countless different techniques out there to help you meditate. Try using Google to find a few to try out. If it seems pointless and doesn’t work for you, throw it out and try another. Eventually, you’ll find something that clicks with you.

Accompany it with a spiritual reading to meditate on and/or some music. Often, I start meditating by reading a Bible verse aloud, something to give me a bit of focus as I meditate/pray. Try reading a short snippet from any work that is powerful in your life. Another useful thing to try is to select some ambient music to play softly while doing it - I find Boards of Canada to be very good for both meditation and any activity I do that requires mental concentration - their album The Campfire Headphase works very well for me.

Get adequate sleep

This is a particular challenge for me, as I tend to overstuff my days with activities. Sleep tends to be the biggest thing that I shortchange, and I sometimes suffer for it, feeling deeply worn down and mentally not engaged with the things I should be engaged with. If I’m sitting around yawning and thinking about sleep, I might as well be sleeping.

Take a power nap. Set aside a small period of time during the day to take a nap - thirty minutes should do it. This is a technique that I often have a hard time executing, but one of my coworkers closes his office every day and takes a thirty minute nap on the floor with the lights off - when he awakens, he’s like a new person.

Sleep extra on weekend nights. I tend to use my weekends to recharge from an overpacked week, and one aspect of this is sleeping extra on weekends. I’ll sleep as much as four hours more on a weekend night than a weeknight, and it makes a huge difference for me.

Fall asleep faster. I do this by organizing my evenings carefully. I’ll do things that require mental effort until I notice that I’m not as mentally sharp as I should be. Then, I’ll fill the next hour with mindless physical tasks - vacuuming, doing dishes, doing laundry, and so on. When I reach the point of genuine tiredness, where it’s challenging to actually stay awake, then I go to bed and I usually fall asleep in a minute or two. Alternately, if I went to sleep earlier, I’d just toss and turn in bed for a while, read something, toss and turn some more, and maybe get a half an hour of additional sleep out of the deal - not worth it.

Eliminate burdens that are wearing you down

As most of you know, the number of responsibilities I have on my plate are many. I often have to come up with creative ways to manage my time - writing in the early morning hours (as I type this, it’s 4:25 AM, for instance), buying groceries during my lunch break at work, mastering the art of balancing an infant while reloading the dryer, and so on. While I’ve been able to juggle everything effectively for a while, it can be a major mental load at times, and I am prepared to make some changes if I feel that I’m becoming overwhelmed. Here are some tactics for discovering things to cut out of your life.

Make a master list of all of the responsibilities in your life. Sit down and list every significant responsibility in your life. Your work commitments. Your family commitments. Your social commitments. Your community commitments. Just write them all down in one place, all of the things that are a burden in your life. You can make it highly detailed or just list the big things - I find, though, that the more items you list, the better off you are for what you can do with the list.

Rank them by importance. I usually split them into five groups ranking from absolutely essential (time with my family) to trivial (scooping the sidewalk or mowing the grass). This is mostly to gauge what’s really important to me - and what’s really not. Some honesty is vital here - I have some responsibilities that I should view as more important than I actually do, for instance.

Consider eliminating the bottom few. When you’re done, start from the bottom and look for ways to eliminate them. Can you hire someone to mow the yard or scoop the snow? Can you perhaps step down from that useless committee? Maybe you can cut out the sports booster activities in the coming year. Trimming away some of the least important things leaves you room to breathe - and perhaps room to grow in other areas.

Focus on your personal positives, not your negatives

Many people find themselves in a downward spiral of self-reinforced failure. They come to believe that they’ll never succeed at anything. This belief then influences their behavior and then, when this failure finally comes to pass, they use it as evidence that they are a failure. This self-reinforcement leads to a hugely negative self-image and a very strong likelihood that success will never happen in a person’s life. I’ve witnessed some variation on this in a lot of different people in my life and I’ve also witnessed that the best way to get out of it is through some positive reinforcement.

Consider the things that you do well. I have a friend named Tori, who sometimes comments on this blog. She’s the type of person who has a lot going for her, but she tends to dwell on the negatives. She’s a better writer than I am, for starters, and her ability to recall facts is probably the best I’ve seen. She’s also very good at lifting the spirits of others, she’s great at seeing the positive aspects in other people, and she’s one of the most patient people I’ve ever met. Yet, quite often, I’ve seen her drowning because she looks at her “bad” traits, when there are so many good ones to look at.

If you have a hard time thinking of your positive traits, talk to a friend about them. See what your friends view as your most positive traits. You might be surprised at what they say - I’ve heard friends describe traits in me that I would have never seen on my own.

Once you’ve really got a grip on what’s good about you, choose ways to spend your time that accentuate those positives. Tori, who I mentioned above, would probably be the best person I’ve ever met to write a pop culture blog of some sort - she’s got the writing skill, the knowledge base, and the right attitude and humor to really make that kind of thing work. Perhaps she should adopt something like that as a hobby, as it could naturally lift her spirits by letting her use her good traits and minimizing the traits she views as “bad.”

Set tiny goals each day

A friend of mine recently told me that she feels as though she accomplishes nothing in her life. That’s a shame, because almost everyone accomplishes far more than they ever realize. Here are some tactics to raise your awareness of the many things that you can accomplish in a day.

Set some microgoals for the day. I do this almost every day. I usually do something along the lines of the prep card idea, where I actually write down three or so things that I will do today, and two things that I won’t do. It’s simple stuff, but stuff that feels like an accomplishment at the end of the day, whether it be something that I actively do or a triumph of willpower. For example, you might write down that you’ll stop at the library today and finally get some books on a topic you’ve been wanting to follow up on, and you won’t eat any fast food today. At the end of the day, if you made that library stop and the willpower held out, you accomplished some goals today.

If you feel out of touch with your spiritual side, try to explore it in some fashion each day. Make it your goal to pray every day, or to learn more about a spiritual topic, or to read a small amount of scripture. Just touch base with it every day and you’ll eventually feel more in touch with your spiritual side.

Engage in regular mental exercise

Regular mental exercises are a great way to improve your concentration skills as well as your ability to solve problems. There are countless ways to approach this, but doing a somewhat regular series of mental exercises can really pay off. Here are some of my favorite web resources for mental elasticity.

WebSudoku is a brilliant way to solve sudoku puzzles at your convenience. Solve them online, or print off a handful to do later if you wish.

The New York Times crossword is another good challenge, particularly for word-oriented people. I enjoy solving them in pen, meaning I’m not allowed to erase and can’t make a mistake - it adds to the challenge and the focus I need.

Bridge, however, is my favorite mental game. It’s an incredibly engaging card game - don’t let a bit of terminology scare you off. Once you learn to play, it’s a brilliant way to learn to focus and make predictions. Not only does it help with mental acuity, it can also be a strong social game as well.

Take some time off

If you’re simply mentally and spiritually exhausted and the above solutions don’t help, it’s probably time for a recharge. Take some time off from your responsibilities - schedule a lengthy vacation from work and get in touch with other aspects of your life. Time off is as much an investment in yourself as time at work is - they both pay great dividends in different ways, and a healthy life contains some of both.

最近，我討論了自我投資的價(jià)值-花時(shí)間和金錢(qián)在完善你自己上，而不是購(gòu)買(mǎi)資產(chǎn)。今天，我們先來(lái)看看自我投資的其中一方面，這也是將要開(kāi)始的有關(guān)這個(gè)主題的系列文章的一部分。這一主題在這兩周的每個(gè)工作日會(huì)推出一篇文章。如果你想回顧全部的文章，請(qǐng)查看“自我投資”目錄下。

絕大多數(shù)時(shí)間里，我是一個(gè)理智、開(kāi)心并知足的人。我對(duì)自己的人生感到樂(lè)觀，并與我周邊的世界保持聯(lián)系。當(dāng)然，我偶然也會(huì)陷入感傷的情緒，但與我?guī)啄昵暗男睦頎顟B(tài)相比，目前的狀況對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)簡(jiǎn)直好得難以置信。

不過(guò)，達(dá)至這樣的狀態(tài)并不容易。實(shí)際上，我每天都要花時(shí)間來(lái)保持心情舒暢的狀態(tài)，確保自我精神的健全——即使我還不很了解“自我精神”這種感覺(jué)。如果沒(méi)有恰當(dāng)?shù)暮亲o(hù)——沒(méi)有定期投入時(shí)間去這么做的話(huà)——你很容易看到生命中的這一部分逐漸枯萎，然后你會(huì)感到持續(xù)的精疲力竭、不快活以及內(nèi)心空虛。

顯然，良好的飲食和積極鍛煉也是實(shí)現(xiàn)心智健康的關(guān)鍵，不過(guò)這兩個(gè)領(lǐng)域我將在別的“自我投資”系列文章中具體介紹。另一個(gè)關(guān)鍵則是對(duì)心理失調(diào)的恰當(dāng)治療——萬(wàn)一你覺(jué)得自己需要這樣的幫助，用你的時(shí)間和金錢(qián)去獲得它將是一項(xiàng)有遠(yuǎn)見(jiàn)的投資。在此之外，這里還有一些你可以做來(lái)改善自己的心智健康的事情。

每日祈禱和/或冥想

現(xiàn)在馬上就試。閉上你的眼睛，深呼吸，保持一會(huì)兒，然后徹底的呼氣，再保持一會(huì)兒，將上述步驟重復(fù)十遍。當(dāng)你這么做的時(shí)候，集中精力讓你身上的每塊肌肉保持松弛。如果你忍不住要想一些別的事情，試著努力在腦海中回想那些你在人生中曾經(jīng)歷過(guò)的最平靜的體驗(yàn)。
明白了嗎？雖然介紹的有點(diǎn)簡(jiǎn)單，但總之這就是冥想。每天下班后，在屋子里一個(gè)的安靜角落，我會(huì)花20分鐘左右這樣做，同時(shí)進(jìn)行一些伸展運(yùn)動(dòng)和基本瑜伽動(dòng)作。如果你愿意，可以把祈禱也作為其中的一部分。用一些時(shí)間感謝主對(duì)你生命的祝福，讓這個(gè)放松的冥想狀態(tài)使你的心理和心態(tài)得到回復(fù)。此外，這里還有一些小技巧可以幫助你保持最佳的精神狀態(tài)。

每天用一點(diǎn)時(shí)間來(lái)祈禱或冥想�？梢院蛣e的一些活動(dòng)一起做——比如我同時(shí)會(huì)做一些伸展運(yùn)動(dòng)，而我最親近的朋友之一則會(huì)在每天淋浴時(shí)進(jìn)行短暫的冥想和祈禱。這樣做將會(huì)為你清理心中的煩亂，使你放松心情。
多嘗試幾種基本的冥想技巧，直到發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)對(duì)你最有效的。有數(shù)不清的技巧可以幫助你進(jìn)行冥想。不妨用Google去找一些來(lái)嘗試下。如果某個(gè)技巧試下來(lái)對(duì)你沒(méi)什么意義，而且對(duì)你也不起效，放棄它，然后試試別的。最終，你總會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)一些適合你的。

將冥想與靈修閱讀及/或音樂(lè)結(jié)合起來(lái)。我通常會(huì)在冥想之前大聲朗讀圣經(jīng)詩(shī)句，這會(huì)讓我在冥想或祈禱時(shí)能夠更好的集中注意力。嘗試?yán)首x一些對(duì)你人生有影響的著作中的短句。還有一項(xiàng)準(zhǔn)備會(huì)有所幫助，就是在冥想/祈禱時(shí)不妨挑選一些節(jié)奏舒緩的環(huán)境音樂(lè)來(lái)播放——我自己感覺(jué)Boards of Canada（樂(lè)隊(duì)名）的音樂(lè)對(duì)冥想或是我從事的任何需要精神專(zhuān)注的工作都很有幫助——他們的名為《The Campfire Headphase》的專(zhuān)輯對(duì)我就非常管用。

充足睡眠

這對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)特別重要，因?yàn)槲铱偸窍矚g把自己每天的日程排得滿(mǎn)滿(mǎn)的。我總是傾向于克扣睡眠的時(shí)間，有時(shí)會(huì)因此而感到非常的疲倦，無(wú)法專(zhuān)注于我本應(yīng)該全身心投入的事情。所以如果我坐著在那無(wú)所事事的打哈欠并且想睡覺(jué)，我就會(huì)去睡覺(jué)了。

好好打個(gè)盹。在白天時(shí)花一小段時(shí)間打個(gè)盹——30分鐘就足夠了。我自己在實(shí)行這個(gè)方法時(shí)遇到不少難度，不過(guò)我的一位合作者之一每天白天會(huì)暫時(shí)關(guān)上辦公室的門(mén)，關(guān)上燈，然后在地板上小睡30分鐘——當(dāng)他醒來(lái)時(shí)，他會(huì)感覺(jué)自己煥然一新。

周末晚上額外多睡一會(huì)兒。我傾向于在周末為過(guò)度勞累的一周做補(bǔ)償，而方法之一就是在周末補(bǔ)覺(jué)。在周末的晚上我會(huì)比平時(shí)多睡至4個(gè)小時(shí)，這對(duì)我非常管用。

讓自己快速進(jìn)入熟睡狀態(tài)。我通過(guò)仔細(xì)安排晚上的活動(dòng)來(lái)實(shí)現(xiàn)這點(diǎn)。我會(huì)做需要精神專(zhuān)注的工作，直到我發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的注意力無(wú)法集中。之后，我會(huì)再花一個(gè)小時(shí)做些無(wú)需全神貫注的體力活動(dòng)——打掃衛(wèi)生，洗碗，洗衣服等等。當(dāng)我真的感到疲勞，很難再保持清醒狀態(tài)時(shí)，我就會(huì)上床睡覺(jué)，這時(shí)我往往會(huì)在一、兩分鐘內(nèi)入睡。如果不這樣做，而是早早上床，我只會(huì)在床上翻來(lái)覆去，過(guò)一會(huì)兒起來(lái)讀些東西，然后繼續(xù)輾轉(zhuǎn)反側(cè)。也許這么做能讓我多睡半小時(shí)——不過(guò)一點(diǎn)也不值得。

減少讓你疲憊不堪的責(zé)任數(shù)量

正如你們中的大多數(shù)知道的，我有許多的事需要處理。我經(jīng)常得想出創(chuàng)造性的辦法來(lái)管理自己的時(shí)間——在凌晨寫(xiě)作（比如，當(dāng)我寫(xiě)下這些東西的時(shí)候，是凌晨4點(diǎn) 25分），在我工作日的午餐時(shí)間去購(gòu)買(mǎi)日常用品，在我使用烘干機(jī)的時(shí)候?qū)W習(xí)掌握平衡嬰兒的方法（？），等等。但當(dāng)我能夠有效率的安排每件事，這工作本身又會(huì)變成一項(xiàng)很大的負(fù)擔(dān)。所以如果我覺(jué)得自己負(fù)擔(dān)過(guò)重，我就會(huì)準(zhǔn)備去做些改變。下面有些技巧，能夠幫助你找到并去掉生活中一些多余的責(zé)任。
制作一張包括你生活中所有責(zé)任的清單。坐下并列出你生活中每個(gè)重要的責(zé)任。你的工作約定。你的家庭承諾。你的社會(huì)責(zé)任。你對(duì)所在社團(tuán)的責(zé)任。把所有那些你生活中的責(zé)任都寫(xiě)在一張紙上。你可以寫(xiě)得非常具體，也可以只寫(xiě)出大綱——不過(guò)我發(fā)現(xiàn)，你寫(xiě)在清單里的東西越多，這張清單就越能發(fā)揮作用。

對(duì)清單中的各項(xiàng)按重要性打分。我通常將所有的事情分到五個(gè)等級(jí)中，從絕對(duì)重要（有關(guān)自己家人的）到瑣碎小事（清理人行道或修剪草坪）。最關(guān)鍵的是判斷哪些事情對(duì)自己真正重要——而哪些不是。在此，對(duì)自己誠(chéng)實(shí)非常要緊——比如說(shuō)，有些你主觀上覺(jué)得不重要的事情，實(shí)際上比你感覺(jué)到的重要得多，你應(yīng)該給它們多一點(diǎn)關(guān)注。

考慮如何消去位于清單底部的事項(xiàng)。當(dāng)你完成了清單，從清單底部開(kāi)始，看看有沒(méi)有辦法解決他們。你是不是可以雇人來(lái)修剪草坪和鏟除積雪？你是否能辭去那些無(wú)意義的職務(wù)？或者你也許能在接下去的一年里減少參與體育促進(jìn)活動(dòng)。去掉一些重要性較低的工作可以讓你有喘息的機(jī)會(huì)——并且為你在其他方面獲得進(jìn)步創(chuàng)造條件。

關(guān)注你的優(yōu)勢(shì)，而不是劣勢(shì)

很多人發(fā)現(xiàn)自己處于一個(gè)不斷向下并自我強(qiáng)化的失敗循環(huán)中。他們開(kāi)始相信自己永遠(yuǎn)無(wú)法在任何事情上成功。這個(gè)想法影響到他們的行為，然后，當(dāng)失敗最終來(lái)臨時(shí)，他們又將這作為他們自身失敗的證據(jù)。這個(gè)自我強(qiáng)化的循環(huán)會(huì)引起嚴(yán)重的負(fù)面自我認(rèn)識(shí)，并導(dǎo)致他們有很大的可能性在自己的一生中永遠(yuǎn)無(wú)法成功。我在很多不同的人身上見(jiàn)到過(guò)這樣的例子，不過(guò)我也見(jiàn)證了擺脫這種境地的最好辦法就是來(lái)自正面的強(qiáng)化推動(dòng)力。

想想你出色的地方。我有一位時(shí)常在我的博客上留言的朋友，名叫Tori。她是那類(lèi)有許多長(zhǎng)處的人，但卻總是想著自己的缺點(diǎn)。首先，她在寫(xiě)作上比我更出色，她的記憶力也許是我見(jiàn)過(guò)最好的。她還十分擅于給別人打氣，看到別人身上閃光的地方，她也是我見(jiàn)過(guò)的最有耐心的人之一。然而，我卻常�？吹剑�即使有那么多的優(yōu)點(diǎn)，她卻因?yàn)橹蛔⒁獾阶陨淼?ldquo;缺點(diǎn)”而陷于消沉。

如果你不習(xí)慣去想自己的長(zhǎng)處，不妨和朋友談?wù)勊鼈��？纯茨愕呐笥寻咽裁纯醋瞿闵砩献畲蟮膬?yōu)點(diǎn)。你也許會(huì)因?yàn)樗麄兯�說(shuō)的而大吃一驚——我曾經(jīng)聽(tīng)朋友們談起我身上自己從沒(méi)意識(shí)到的一些長(zhǎng)處。

一旦你真正了解了自己的優(yōu)勢(shì)，接下來(lái)就該選擇能夠讓這些優(yōu)勢(shì)得到加強(qiáng)的方式。我上文提起過(guò)的 Tori，也許會(huì)成為我見(jiàn)過(guò)的最好的流行文化博客寫(xiě)手——她有可以用來(lái)做好這件事的寫(xiě)作技巧，豐富的相關(guān)知識(shí)，正確的態(tài)度和幽默感。也許，她就應(yīng)該將寫(xiě)作關(guān)于流行文化的博客當(dāng)成習(xí)慣，因?yàn)檫@么做能夠通過(guò)發(fā)揮長(zhǎng)處讓她自然的感到精神愉悅，并最大限度的弱化她身上那些她視為“不好”的特征。

為每天設(shè)置一個(gè)小目標(biāo)

我的一個(gè)朋友最近告訴我，她老是感覺(jué)自己的一生一事無(wú)成。這是多么的遺憾，因?yàn)榻^大多數(shù)人達(dá)到的成就實(shí)際遠(yuǎn)比他們意識(shí)到的要大得多。下面就有一些技巧，能讓你意識(shí)到自己一天之內(nèi)可完成許多事情。
為當(dāng)天定下一些小的目標(biāo)。我?guī)缀趺刻於歼@樣做。我通常采用記事便條的方式（譯注：prep card，具體可見(jiàn)http://www.lifeclever.com/your-prep-card-dont-leave-home-without-it/），我在便條上記下3件左右我打算當(dāng)天做的事情。以及兩件我想克服的事。這都是些簡(jiǎn)單的事情，是那些我覺(jué)得可以在當(dāng)天結(jié)束時(shí)會(huì)有結(jié)果的事，有的是我會(huì)積極去做的，有些則用來(lái)鍛煉意志力。例如，你也許會(huì)寫(xiě)今天打算到圖書(shū)館去，借幾本有關(guān)你正在關(guān)注的領(lǐng)域的書(shū)，此外今天不吃任何快餐食品。當(dāng)一天結(jié)束時(shí)，如果你去過(guò)圖書(shū)館，而且堅(jiān)持住沒(méi)吃任何快餐，你當(dāng)天就確實(shí)完成了一些目標(biāo)。

如果你覺(jué)得迷失了自我，不妨每天堅(jiān)持用某種方式來(lái)追尋它。讓每天祈禱成為你的目標(biāo)，或者是更多的了解有關(guān)靈性的知識(shí)，再或者閱讀一小段圣經(jīng)。堅(jiān)持每天這么做，你終將感到重新找回了自己。

定期進(jìn)行智力練習(xí)

定期進(jìn)行的智力訓(xùn)練非常有助于促進(jìn)你的專(zhuān)注能力和解決問(wèn)題的能力。也許有數(shù)不清的其他方式能夠幫助你達(dá)到這個(gè)目的，但定期的智力練習(xí)確實(shí)非常有幫助。下面是我自己非常喜歡的一些提供智力游戲的網(wǎng)絡(luò)資源。

“網(wǎng)頁(yè)數(shù)獨(dú)”常出色，它讓你能方便的解決數(shù)獨(dú)謎題。你可以在線玩，也可以打印出一些，然后在你喜歡的時(shí)間做。

紐約時(shí)報(bào)的縱橫字謎游戲是另一個(gè)非常棒的智力挑戰(zhàn)，特別是對(duì)那些文字感比較強(qiáng)的人。我喜歡用鋼筆寫(xiě)下答案，這意味著我不能把寫(xiě)錯(cuò)的擦掉，不能犯錯(cuò)誤——這樣做加大了挑戰(zhàn)，并且使我更為專(zhuān)注。

橋牌也是我非常喜歡的智力游戲。它是一種有著迷人魅力的紙牌游戲——但別讓那一點(diǎn)術(shù)語(yǔ)嚇跑你。一旦你學(xué)會(huì)玩橋牌，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)這是學(xué)習(xí)專(zhuān)注和預(yù)測(cè)的極好方式。橋牌不僅鍛煉你的思維能力，同時(shí)也是一種很棒的社會(huì)性游戲。

休息一陣

如果你只是單純覺(jué)得精疲力竭，而上面的那些方法幫不到你，也許你該好好的休息一陣。從你的責(zé)任中將自己釋放出來(lái)——計(jì)劃個(gè)長(zhǎng)假，忘記工作，嘗試做點(diǎn)不同的事情。休假也是非常重要的一項(xiàng)自我投資，不亞于工作——它們通過(guò)不同的方式為你帶來(lái)巨大的回報(bào)，健康的人生應(yīng)該是兩者的均衡。
