Get smarter

    讓自己更聰明

    Most of us wish we had time to learn something new or get better at things we're only OK at. Libraries and bookstores are filled with how-to books on everything from gardening to writing to crafts. If you crave structure, look into courses at a community center or college where you may be able to audit at a reduced rate.

    多數(shù)人都希望自己能有時(shí)間學(xué)習(xí)新東西；或者提高自己本來馬馬虎虎的方面。圖書館和書店有許多各個(gè)方面的指導(dǎo)叢書，從園藝、寫作到手工藝。如果你喜歡建筑，那么在當(dāng)?shù)厣鐓^(qū)中心或大學(xué)看看有沒有相關(guān)課程可以讓你能少花錢旁聽一下。

    Volunteer

    做志愿者

    Check Websites of organizations you're interested in, or call and ask if they have volunteer programs. Animal shelters, libraries, hospices, after-school programs and most other nonprofits welcome help.

    去看看你感興趣的組織的網(wǎng)站，或是打電話問問是否有志愿者計(jì)劃。 動(dòng)物救助所、圖書館、收容所、課后培訓(xùn)及多數(shù)非盈利機(jī)構(gòu)都需要志愿者。

    Get out of the house

    不要悶在家里

    This can be more challenging than you realize. Forcing yourself to leave home will also require that you (a) get dressed, (b) comb your hair and (c) leave the refrigerator behind. These are all good for your health. If the weather cooperates, go walking.

    這比你想象的要困難。強(qiáng)迫自己離開家需要你（a）穿好衣服（b）梳好頭（c）遠(yuǎn)離電冰箱（食物）。這些對(duì)你的健康有好處。如果天氣好，去散步吧。
