Small, simple life changes can be powerful. Implementing some of these changes can literally change your entire life. How do you change? Take on one change at a time, and go slowly. Implement each change consistently so that it becomes a habit. Don’t do too much too fast. What follows is a list of changes that are simple, yet incredibly powerful. Some are obvious and some aren’t. I hope they serve as reminders of useful changes.
生活中一些細(xì)微簡(jiǎn)單的改變有著不可低估的作用。一些改變甚至可以改變你的整個(gè)生活。 如何改變呢？一次做出一種改變，慢慢來(lái)，并始終如一地堅(jiān)持，形成一種習(xí)慣。不要貪多求快。 下面列出一些改變，雖然簡(jiǎn)單，作用卻難以置信。有些作用明顯，而有的不易覺(jué)察。我希望下列條目能提醒你去做一些有益身心的改變。

1. Walk daily
1.每天散步

We humans aren’t supposed to be sedentary human beings. We are born to run, but even more so to walk.
人類不適于久座。我們生來(lái)善跑，走路更不在話下。

Walking every day is good for your physical health. But more importantly, it’s good for your mind. Walking is a joy. You are outside without distractions. You may even see people. And there’s few better ways to boast your mood.
每天散步有益于身體健康。更重要的是，它還有助于心理健康。在室外散步，令人愉快，遠(yuǎn)離煩惱，還可以接觸人群。沒(méi)有什么更好的方法比散步更能帶給你好心情。

2. Wake early
2.早起

If you asked me what’s the best change you can make this instance, I would say “wake early.”The early morning is peaceful –there are no interruptions and no noise. You can wakeup and go for a walk. You can meditate. And you can create.
如果你問(wèn)我什么是最好的改變，我會(huì)說(shuō)“早起”。早晨是那樣寧?kù)o——沒(méi)人打擾，沒(méi)有噪音。起床后，散散步，你還可以冥思，或是創(chuàng)作。

And waking early is the most productive thing I’ve ever done. I often get more work done in a couple hours in the morning than during the entire day.
早起是我做的最富有成效的改變。在早晨的幾個(gè)小時(shí)里，我做的事情常常比一整天做的都多。

3. Eat less
3.少吃

Many of us overeat. Let’s stop. Eat slowly, and eat until you’re full. Eat so that your belly doesn’t bulge.
我們中的很多人都飲食過(guò)量?？蓜e吃太多。細(xì)嚼慢咽，吃飽為止。這樣才不會(huì)吃起將軍肚。

4. Stop watching, start doing
4.不做旁觀者

Watching is easy. Anyone can watch someone. Spectating isn’t inherently bad, but I believe we do too much of it. Instead of watching, do something. Or better yet, create something great.
看容易，每個(gè)人都可以看別人。做個(gè)觀眾本身并不壞，但我認(rèn)為，我們看得太多。不要做旁觀者，自己去做。如果不小心搞出個(gè)偉大創(chuàng)造，豈不更好。

5. Go slowly
5.放慢腳步

Our culture tells us to go fast, to sprint and win the race. Problem is, the race never ends. When you choose to go slowly, you are choosing peace and happiness.
我們的文化鼓勵(lì)我們勇往直前、沖刺、贏得比賽。問(wèn)題是生活這場(chǎng)比賽沒(méi)有終點(diǎn)。當(dāng)把腳步放慢，你就選擇了寧?kù)o與快樂(lè)。

6. Declutter
6.整理

Clutter whether mental, physical, or virtual takes a toll. The only way to get rid of clutter is to get rid of stuff. Deal with bad thoughts and be done with them. Delete unneeded files. And get rid of unnecessary items. Then when you feel like adding something, ask yourself if it’s necessary. For the most part, it will just contribute to clutter.
不論思想的、物質(zhì)的還是虛擬文件，一旦它們雜亂無(wú)章就會(huì)產(chǎn)生負(fù)面影響。擺脫混亂的唯一辦法就是甩掉沒(méi)有價(jià)值的東西。篩出消極想法，遠(yuǎn)離它們。刪除不需要的文件。剔除不必要的項(xiàng)目。然后，當(dāng)你想進(jìn)行補(bǔ)充的時(shí)候，先問(wèn)自己是否有必要。因?yàn)槎鄶?shù)情況下，這只會(huì)導(dǎo)致混亂。

7. Become stronger
7.變得更強(qiáng)

There are many ways you can become stronger. You can refuse to back down because of fear. You can stand up for what’s right. All do one thing, increase your confidence. Gradually become stronger, and the world will open up.
讓自己變得更強(qiáng)的方法多種多樣。不要因?yàn)楹ε露丝s，敢于堅(jiān)持正確的事。一次只做一件事，增強(qiáng)自信心。你將會(huì)越來(lái)越強(qiáng)，世界之門將為你敞開(kāi)。

8. Drink water
8.喝水

Often, I used to feel like crap just because I wasn’t hydrated. Drink water, and it will make you feel better. Soda and most other drinks often make you feel worse. Drink water and only water (besides maybe some tea or coffee). Drink it with meals and drink it throughout the day.
以前，我常常因缺水而感覺(jué)自己像個(gè)廢物。喝水會(huì)使你輕松愉快，而碳酸飲料和其它大部分飲料不會(huì)帶你這樣的感覺(jué)。喝水，水（除茶或咖啡外）可以代替其他任何飲料。不僅就餐時(shí)喝水，其他時(shí)間也要喝水。

9. Meditate
9.冥想

The incredible benefits of meditation are well-known. But most people don’t practice it because it seems complicated. The truth is, you don’t need to shave your head, or sit with crossed legs to meditate. The simplest way to meditate is to just sit and breathe. Focus on your breathe. Or focus on the sounds around you.
冥想的益處不可思議，這已為人共知。大多數(shù)人卻不去實(shí)踐，只是覺(jué)得它太復(fù)雜。事實(shí)上，你不必削發(fā)盤坐，像出家人似的冥想。最簡(jiǎn)單的冥想方式就是坐在那里，均勻地呼吸。關(guān)注你的呼吸，或是關(guān)注身邊的聲音。

10. Let go of expectations
10.不要預(yù)期

Expectations are completely pointless. Try it for yourself: think of how something will be in advance. Most of the time your expectations aren’t met or are exceeded or your expectations create negative results.
預(yù)期完全不著邊際。自己嘗試一下：思考一些事情的發(fā)展趨勢(shì)。大多數(shù)情況下，你的預(yù)期不是達(dá)不到就是超過(guò)。同時(shí)，預(yù)期也可能產(chǎn)生負(fù)面效果。

Live without expectations, and you won’t be disappointed. You won’t have to worry about things you can’t control. You will just flow and accept things as they are.
沒(méi)有期望，也就不會(huì)失望。不必為你無(wú)法控制的事情而擔(dān)心。坦然面對(duì)和接受事實(shí)。
