Start Your Day with This Simple Practice

Tip
Nearly a year into the pandemic, it can be hard to muster the positive outlook that fuels motivation and creativity. When we lose that positivity, burnout and fatigue can quickly follow. How can you inject some optimism into your day? This two-minute exercise can help. Each morning, finish the following three sentences (either on paper, out loud, or even in your head) before you turn on your computer or start your commute:
Today, I will focus on _.
Today, I am grateful for _.
Today, I will let go of _.
Make sure to be specific with your answers; writing that you’re grateful for your mom every day won’t help. Ultimately, we’re only awake for an average of 1,000 minutes each day. If we can invest just two of them to prime our brains for positivity, then we’ll be helping ensure the quality of other 998 minutes.

🇨🇳 用这个简单的练习开始你的一天
大流行已近一年,很难形成积极的前景,从而激发积极性和创造力。当我们失去这种积极性时,倦怠和疲劳很快就会随之而来。你怎样才能在你的生活中注入一些乐观呢?这个两分钟的练习可以帮助你。每天早上,在你打开电脑或开始你的通勤之前,完成以下三句话(在纸上,大声说出来,甚至在你的脑海中):
今天,我将专注于_。
今天,我要感谢 _。
今天,我将放开 _。
你的回答一定要具体;每天写下你对妈妈的感激是没有用的。最终,我们每天平均只有 1000 分钟的清醒时间。如果我们能投入其中的两分钟,让我们的大脑变得积极,那么我们就能帮助确保其他 998 分钟的质量。
