Organizing Your Time

You can set a budget(预算) for your time just as you can set a budget for your money. Since you’re trying to reduce worry rather than increase it,go into this process with a focus on maximizing(使…最大化)your personal time,rather than cramming(塞满) as much as you can into each day.

●  Set a sleep schedule(时间表).1.Give yourself a one-hour target(目标) window for bedtime in the evening,and set a strict time to get up in the morning.Be sure that the space between your bedtime and the start of your day gives you roughly an hour more than the amount of sleep you actually need.2.

●Take care of tasks at the same time every day. Plan time for daily health care, commuting(乘公交下上班), work, shopping, eating, and chores(家务). Add in time for anything else you do most days, such as homework, exercise, or an active hobby.3.All the time left over is your free time, to use for relaxation or whatever else you want.

● 4.For example,you might plan to go, dropping on your way home from work, to save the extra trip.

What is body language? Body language is a term used to describe the method of communication using body movements or gestures instead of spoken language or other communication. Body language also includes many movements that most people pay no attention to, such as winking(眨眼)and slight movements of the eyebrows and other facial expressions.

Perhaps body language is one of the most powerful forms of human expression, which makes up 50% or more of what we are communicating to other persons. If you wish to communicate effectively, besides the words, you can use your body to say what you mean.

Also, body language is one of the easiest ways for you to tell what’s really going on in a conversation with another person. The body language that you observe from other people will tell you whether or not those people are telling you the truth, or whether there is something more that’s not being said. Watch, look and observe. Sometimes you can tell more by a person’s body language than his words.

Besides, body language can be used for all sorts of things, such as showing confidence and winning respect in any situation. You can use body language to make people less nervous and make friends quickly persuaded and influenced.
