7.At the risk of sounding lazy,I'll just be honest:I used to hate making my bed.Why should I bother?I'm just going to get right back into it later,and no one except my immediate family will see it.But something I read last week in Charles Duhigg's"The Power of Habit"changed my mind.According to Duhigg,making your bed every morning is connected with better productivity and sticking to a budget.It has also been suggested that making your bed promotes happiness.My interest was attracted.
According to Duhigg,making your bed is something called a keystone habit.Changing or forming keystone habits helps you develop other good habits.
I figured that I was the perfect test case for the Make Your Bed to Achieve Happiness Theory and that it was worth a try.So far I've made my bed for 10days in a row.And here's what I've noticed:Making my bed inspires my children to make their beds,clean their rooms and do the laundry and the dishes.
Karen Miller,author of"Hand Wash Cold",explains:"The state of your bed is the state of your head."I think she is on to something.When I leave my bed in a heap (一堆),I leave the bedroom feeling defeated by my bed,my alarm clock,and my general sleepy mood.I'm reluctant to get the day started.
But when I look at my freshly made bed,I have to admit it:I smile a little.I feel just a bit more motivated.Productive,even.But sticking to a budget?That part is still up for debate.I just bought some beautiful pillows for my freshly made bed.I can't leave that beautiful bed half-dressed,can I?

12.Do you want to be pretty?You are the only one who can decide you're truly pretty.To achieve this,first of all,you should be pretty on the inside.In other words,you have to understand that your beauty comes from yourself,not from any outside source.To practice feeling this way,you can write a list of all the good things about yourself.This includes things like helping someone carrying something or listening to a friend.You also can write a list of things that you think are beautiful about yourself.Maybe you have big brown eyes,a cute nose or a great laugh.What's more,every morning,when you wake up,go to the bathroom mirror,smile at yourself and say aloud,"I am happy."The more you say it,the more you'll convince your brain that it's true.
To be pretty on the inside,at the same time,don't forget to be attractive by being kind and respectful.So listen to people when they talk,and they'll notice you've taken an interest in their words.Help others out when they are in need,and also don't judge other people.
On the other hand,you also should be pretty on the outside.For this,you can do something to change your appearance.For example,change your hairstyle.Wear clothes in which you feel comfortable.Also you can give your skin some extra special care to make it look better.
In fact,the key to being pretty on the outside is working to be healthy.If you're in poor health,you can't look pretty on the outside.So,to keep healthy,have enough sleep every day and work out in a regular way.
