Lazy people will never gain anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.Many people lack sleep constantly, since they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.
Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task. Others take a more positive approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone.
Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations(诱惑) that surround them. A television in the living room may provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness. Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film.
Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not dealt with immediately.Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the home may eventually follow your example and perform their own task. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people.
Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle, thus enabling you to have more energy and help lift your spirits.
A.To fight family laziness, set an example. |
B.Knowing how to fight laziness is important. |
C.One way to fight laziness is to get enough sleep. |
D.Finally, taking exercise regularly can help you fight laziness. |
E. With strong determination, you will be able to achieve your goal.

How to Find Yourself
Do you often feel lost?Do you think you are living somebody else’s life? If yes, discover ways to find yourself by going through the following article.__________
If you are thinking, “how to find yourself when you are lost?”, then the first thing to do is to have a rest from everything—work, personal life and all worldly things. Give time to yourself to think why you seem lost. Is it because of over work? Is it because you are not leading a life that you want to? Or is it because you are not satisfied with the people or things around you? Try to find answers to these questions to determine the cause behind your restlessness. __________
For once, instead of being the way others want you to be, be yourself. Look within and find yourself in you. Think about the things that you would want to do if you didn’t have any family obligations or any money issues. Think about the kind of relationship you would want to be in, the place that you would like to stay in, the kind of lifestyle you would like to lead, if you didn’t have the society or people around you, judging all the time. If you really want to know how to find inner peace, then think, what you would want others to describe you as—an honest person? Or adventurous? Or loving, or realistic? Once you look within, you will know the answer and then try to be exactly that.__________
Thinking deeply about the past, the time or situations when you were the happiest, is another way to find yourself .Think what you were doing or with whom you were, when you were the happiest. This will help you to identify things that you want to do in life that make you happy and also certain people whose company you enjoy.__________
Knowing yourself and determining what you to do with your life will not come to you in a day or two. Discovering oneself is an ongoing process and it can take months or sometimes even years to truly find yourself. So, it’s important that you maintain a written record of all your feelings and thoughts, which you can go through at a later stage. Pour all your emotions and feelings about life in it and who knows may be one day going through it, you will find yourself.__________
Once you have discovered what you want to do with your life, make a move for change and self improvement. Even if it means taking up small things such as dancing or painting, go ahead and do it. If you want a career change, plan and take steps so that it can take place smoothly. If you are stuck in a bad relationship and find yourself unable to mend it, break away. At the beginning, you may find yourself slightly unbalanced, but with time everything will be fine.
It is very important for you to truly find yourself, before it is too late. If you do not find yourself now, you will spend your life with somebody you do not even know, i.e. yourself.

It’s easy to live green.“Focus on reducing your energy and water consumption and your waste generation,you’ll be on your way to reducing your footprints on the planet,”says Malten.
It’s best to walk,bicycle,or use mass transit for your daily commuting,but for those who must use their own vehicles,improving the efficiency of your car’s fuel mileage(耗油量)is as easy as keeping your tires properly inflated and changing your oil and air filters if necessary.
Using cold water rather than hot water in the washer saves electricity and works just as well as hot water with most clothes.Line drying is not only more environmentally friendly,but it also will keep clothes from shrinking and fading.
If you’re headed to a restaurant that you know serves king-sized portions,bring a small piece of Tupperware along to take the leftovers home,so that you can keep one fewer styrofoma(泡沫塑料)container from the landfill pile.If you are going to a supermarket,bring your own canvas tote bags “Although many supermarket recycle used plastic bags,the process still requires much energy to be used to transport and process the materials,”says Malten.
Food grown or produced halfway around the world didn’t just appear in the supermarket-it was shipped by plane,boat,truck or rail,and no matter what kind of transportation it took,greenhouse gases were emitted along the way.Pick the apple grown in your state instead of the banana grown in another country.
It seems simple,but just,one tree can consume tons of carbon over its lifetime.If planted properly, it will also provide shade on a sunny day,perhaps reducing the use of energy for air-conditioning in buildings and homes:“While reducing energy will cut our carbon emissions,it is also important to restore more natural ‘sinks’ that capture carbon,” Malten says,“Planting trees is an easy place to start.’’
