习惯成就生活：现在该养成的13个好习惯

This is one of the easiest ways to get those feelings and thoughts out of you and onto paper. Writing in a journal on a regular basis can keep you on track with your goals and release tension.
要把情感和想法倾诉到纸上，这是最容易的一个办法了。定期写日记能让你随时温习目标并放松紧张状态。

Find a morning or evening routine and stick to it
定一个早/晚例行事务并坚持下去

Choose 20 to 30 minutes, either in the morning or at night, where you can create a little routine you can stick to. Meditate, write in your journal, read something inspiring, or use this time to focus on your passions.
早上还是晚上都可以，腾20-30分钟做一项自己能够坚持的例行事务，比如冥想、写日记、读励志文字或利用这段时间专注自己的爱好。

Strive to learn something new every day
努力做到每天学点新知识

If you are a writer, learn a new word and find a way to use it. If you read, look up some info about an author you admire. Research some news about another country. Learning helps you stay open minded and connected to the world around you.
如果你是个作家，那就学一个新词并想办法运用它；如果你爱阅读，那就搜一搜自己喜欢的某个作家；去了解其他国家的新闻。学习能使你保持思维开阔并和周围的世界保持密切。

Let go of comparison
不去攀比

It doesn’t matter if the person beside you in yoga class can contort their body in ways you can’t. If you stop comparing yourself to others, you’re more apt to be happy with who you are. Rather than compare your progress or success to those around you, seek to improve on your own accomplishments.
瑜伽班坐你旁边的那个人可以伸展自如，而你却做不到，这又怎样呢？如果停止与他人攀比，你就能更愉悦地接纳本真的自我。与其拿自己的进步或成功跟周围的人作比较，倒不如努力提高自己的成就呢。

Save some money, even if it’s just a little
哪怕很少，也要存点钱

Just five dollars a week will add up before you know it. Saving money constitutes discipline, which is necessary in all areas of life. Take out cash to spend for the week so you don’t have to touch your bank account. If you give yourself an ‘allowance,’ you’ll become more responsible with your income.
一个星期存5块钱也能在不知不觉间变多起来。省钱需要自律，而自律则是生活各方面都必需的品质。把这个星期要用的钱取出来，这样你就不必再用银行卡了。如果你试着给自己“零花钱”，或许就会变得不再随便花钱了。

Strive to be on time
努力做到准时

Arriving at your destination on time (or even better — early) shows that you care about other people’s time. This doesn’t just apply to work either. Show up on time for family events and outings with your friends.
准时（或者最好提早）到达目的地可以显示出你很尊重他人的时间。这不仅适用于职场，也适用于家庭活动以及和朋友的约会。
