【题目】Change is scary. 【1】 It can go hand in hand with the fear that we might hurt someone else if we think about ourselves. The truth is that youre so much more courageous than you give yourself credit for and far stronger than you realize. Here are some ways that you can use to help yourself make the process of creating change more manageable.

Make change into small bite size pieces. 2 Remember that as long as you attempt to take regular practice towards your goal, such as eating more healthily every day, or walking twenty minutes a day, youre heading in the right direction to make changes.

Form a habit of keeping a diary every day. Writing a journal every night before going to bed can effectively help you cope with the emotional impact of the change process. Go to grab a pen or pencil and remember a journal is not for being neat and tidy with good spelling. 3 .

Rest is essential to success. Have a rest and take timeout to build your energy. 4 If we dont give ourselves time to rest, we just end up burning out by the constant striving and worry. As we dont have the energy to keep going, we have to give up!

5 Just accept it! Im sorry to say that unless some people are really secure in themselves and truly happy in their own life, theyre never going to like your changes. This has nothing to do with whether they love you or not. They are just for self-preservation! Therefore, give them a little time to adjust and get used to it.

A. It is a step into the unknown.

B. Its not being lazy to have time out.

C. No one else is going to like your changes.

D. Don’t try to eat the elephant in one sitting.

E. Creating change is about building your character.

G. It’s a private place where you can speak out your inner thoughts.

【题目】Oh, my God! Did I really just send that text? Most people have said something that they wish they could take back. And if they had paused to think about it first, they probably would have acted differently. Pausing doesnt pay off just when you speak. Scientific studies have shown that making a habit of pausing before you do something can actually have a big impact on how your life turns out.

In making decisions we rely on two areas of the brain. One area creates and processes emotions; the other governs logical thought. The type of decision, how we feel about it, and how prepared we are to handle it help determine which brain area has the most influence.

But our age also plays an important role. Thinking through the consequences of ones actions is actually harder for teens because the area controlling logical thought is not fully developed until around age 25. This is why teens often feel an intense emotional drive to act impulsively--it’s how their brains are structured! Though this tendency to act without considering the outcomes can lead to problematic situations, impulsivity during the developmental years evolves because it makes teens more open to new experiences and ideas. This openness helps teens become independent adults.

The key to making impulsivity work for you--instead of against you--is to train your brain by practicing pausing. This doesnt mean you stop taking risks or being open to new experiences. But you wont know if the risk is worth it until you think it through. Deciding to take a risk based on logic shows self-control, not impulsivity.

What are different ways to pause? You might take a deep breath, count to 10, or ask, Is this worth it? Different strategies work for different people. Whatever works for you, keep doing it! By practicing pausing, you can actually change your brain. This means that over time, pausing, instead of immediately reacting, becomes your natural response. And with this change, people are on their way to enjoying the life rewards that come with high levels of self-control--even if they weren’t natural--born pausers!
