It is normal to be imperfect.

Going green is a great way to reduce your environmental footprint and help the planet. Being green is all about reducing how many resources you use, reusing items when you can, and recycling items that can't be reused. You probably need to change your personal habits.

Carry a reusable water bottle so you will not need bottled water.

Bottled water is really bad for the environment. Not only does it create trash, but it also uses more resources because it's shipped to the store. To be more eco-friendly, make it a habit to carry a reusable water bottle with you everywhere so that you can drink water on the go. Plastic bottles are usually the lightest and most convenient.

Use reusable bags while you're shopping.

Shopping bags make it easy to carry your items home, but they also pollute the planet. Skip the store's shopping bags and bring your own instead, Use a backpack that you already own, or purchase a couple of reusable bags from the checkout area at your local grocery store. You can use your reusable, bags at most stores.

Reuse items to save them from the landfill.

Before you throw something away, look for ways you might reuse it. Try re-purposing items or making green crafts. This will help you keep trash out of the landfill. For example, instead of throwing away a jar, you might use it as a glass, vase or storage container.

Reduce the amount of time you spend using electronics.

While electronics are really fun and help you feel connected to your friends, they also use up a lot of energy. Schedule breaks from your electronics so you can use them less. During your breaks, do something fun like going for a walk playing a game with your friends, or pursuing a hobby. Invite your friend to connect with you in real life. For instance, instead of playing online video games together, go to a local part.

    Every day has just 24 hours - and this applies to all people. Some people are constantly pushed for time. This article is about how we can learn to manage our valuable time more effectively.

    In reality we cannot manage time. We can only manage ourselves and our relationship with time.   After all, how we use our time is largely a matter of habit. And habits are not that easy to changes.

    Below here are tips that can help you manage your time better.

    • Organize your goals.

    Organize your goals based on two criteria: degree of urgency and importance: a. Should be done today, tomorrow, etc. b. Should be done at "that date". c. Can be put off for so many days. d. Can ask someone else to do it. After organizing your goals, start with the most important and urgent.

    • Clean up your list.

    Make a list of everything you think that is not helping or benefiting you and do not do them!

    • Focus on one goal.

    Concentrate only on one goal at a time. Otherwise, if while dealing with something you think about. everything you can do later, most likely you will get bored and disappointed. It is like every time you eat you think all the meals you must eat in your life. The boredom (厌倦) is guaranteed with this way of thinking.

    • Identify your deadlines.

    Check the list of what you should do and when it must be completed.  Divide the activities per day / week and long-term goals to get a clear picture of what you have to do and when.

    • Find suitable work environment.

    Create a suitable environment to work, one that fits your style. 

    • Be realistic.

    Make sure that your goals are realistic and do not try for the impossible.

    • Say "NO".

    Learn to say "no" to other activities, requests and people who eat your time (unless indeed at that very moment it is necessary for you to help them).

Remember that managing your mother is really about managing yourself. Taking any measure to manage our mother is the issue of how we manage ourselves. No matter how difficult we find her , it is important to rememberthat it is not her behavior itself that is causing us discomfort , but the way we feel about her behavior . We should follow the way of her life . At the heart of managing your mother is being able to accept your flawed self . Only then are you able to accept your mother-with all her failings.

Character

Charles Spencer Chaplin (1889-1977), who was an English comedian, file director and filmmarker, was best known for his wprks during the silent film erea.

It was a struggle, but rather than defeating him,it fueled his will to fight for a better future, for himself and foe his peers.

Society

We don’t have as much acess to that because the way we structure our modern lives means we are less in touch with our communities.

　　The first time I ran, like really ran, was during middle school gym class. It took me 11 minutes and 47 seconds to finish a mile. I've been running ever since.

　　我第一次跑步，那種真正的跑步，是在中學體育課的時候。我花了11分47秒跑完了1英里。自那以後，我一直在跑步。

　　Running is the kind of thing where you put in the time and expect to see results, and let me be the first to tell you: It is supremely discouraging when you don't. It's discouraging when you run a five-mile race with your entire family and come in a solid 15 minutes behind everyone else, and it's discouraging when that time is no faster or slower than your five-mile time five years ago.

　　跑步是一種你會投入時間並期待成效的運動。讓我做第一個告訴你這個的人：你沒有做到的時候，你會剛到非常沮喪。當你和所有家人一起來一場5英里賽跑卻落後了每個人15分鐘的時候，是十分讓人沮喪的;當你跑完5英里的時間並沒有比5年前更快或更慢的時候，也是十分讓人沮喪的。

　　And yet, my alarm is already set for 6 a.m. tomorrow, even though it's probably going to be rainy and definitely going to be cold and even though most of the time, I really hate running.

　　但是，我已經把明天的鬧鐘設置為早晨6點鐘了，哪怕可能會下雨且一定會變冷;哪怕大多數時間，我真的討厭跑步。

　　Don't ask me why. All I know is this: As much as I hate running, I love being a runner.

　　不要問我原因。我所知道的一切就是：我喜歡成為一名奔跑者和我討厭跑步的程度相同。

　　There's some kind of camaraderie between people who spend more money each year on running shoes than on all their other shoes combined, and there's some fundamental similarity between people who can cross 10 miles without pausing.

　　比起購買其他所有的鞋子，每年花更多的錢買跑鞋的人們之間有著某種友誼;那些不用暫停就能跑完10英里的人們之間也有著根本的相似性。

　　On days that I run, I exert myself purely for exertion's sake. If you run too, you get why.

　　在我跑步的日子裡，我只不過為了努力而努力。如果你也跑步，你會懂的。

　　When you're a runner, your people are the girls with hair elastics on their wrists and the boys with shorts shorter than yours. They might be better, faster or stronger than you, but you belong with them.

　　當你做奔跑者的時候，你的同伴會是那些手腕上有用來扎頭髮的橡皮筋的女孩子們以及那些穿著比你褲子還短的短褲的男孩子們。他們也許比你更好、更快或者更強壯，但你和他們是一起的。

　　It took me almost 10 years of plodding along at an 11-minute mile before I realized that I could call myself a runner, no matter how slow I go or how many races I lose.

　　我花了將近10年時間才做到在11分鐘內跑完1英里，後來我才意識到，我可以稱自己為一名奔跑者，無論我跑得多慢、無論我輸掉了幾場比賽。

　　I've laced up my shoes at least once a week since the first day I stepped foot on a track in middle school. Some weeks it's every day, some weeks it's not. Some days, I'll barely go more than a mile, and some days, I'll walk more than I jog. I may not have medals, but I have fresh air, time alone, and creaky knees and tight quads.

　　自從我在中學踏上跑道的第一天起，我至少每周會束緊鞋帶跑一次步。有些時候我那周的每天都綁緊鞋帶去跑步，有些時候不是。有些日子裡，我很少跑超過1英里的距離;有些日子裡，我散步的次數會比慢跑多。我可能沒有獎章，但是我能呼吸新鮮空氣、擁有獨處的時間並有吱吱作響的膝蓋和結實的股四頭肌。

　　For me, that's enough. I run, so I am a runner.

　　對我來說，那就足夠了。我跑步，所以我是一名奔跑者。

The absolute most important skill that you learn when you play chess is how to make good decision. On every single move you have to analyze a situation, process what your opponent (對手) is doing and valuate the best move from among all your options. 下棋時學到的絕對最重要的技能是如何做出正確的決定。在每一步中，你必須分析一個情況，分析你的對手正在做的事情，並從你所有的選擇中評估最佳的移動。
