The ancients said that spring is the beginning of the year.
Spring has arrived, and at the same time as everything grows, people will also have a sense of rebirth psychologically.
Counting the bad habits of the past, everyone will want to change themselves and restart their lives.
Master Nan Huaijin said: If you are idle, you will live up to the spring breeze and live up to the Qing.
Take advantage of this bright spring, you might as well follow the 7 little things recommended by the People's Daily and use this spring to change yourself.
1
Get closer to nature
Economist Wen Tiejun once lamented that modern people are exhausted in reinforced concrete cities and can't see the sky at all.
Working overtime and staying up late day after day make people listless and often sleepy.
Gradually, the body and mind began to become sick, the body became weaker and weaker, and the spirit became more and more anxious.
A study in the British journal Scientific Reports showed that:
To get rid of physical and mental fatigue, you need to spend at least 2 hours a week in nature.
Because the fresh air can dispel the gloom in the heart, and the gurgling stream can soothe the tiredness of life.
Just like the writer Chi Zijian said: My doctor is the breeze and water, the sun, the moon and the stars.
趁春光正好，去踏青赏花吧。
Occasionally empty yourself, get away from the hustle and bustle, and feel the gift of greenery.
Climb the mountain, see the lake, blow the wind...... Simple relaxation is the best way to heal yourself.

Take up a hobby
Do you have such a time:
When I'm busy, I always want to take a vacation, but when I'm really free, I don't know what to do.
Occasionally, I indulge in the pleasure of dopamine, play with my mobile phone, and watch videos, but when the pleasure is over, I feel very empty and can't find meaning.
Wang Xiaobo said: "It is not enough for a person to have this life, he should also have a poetic world." ”
Outside of busy and anxious work, you might as well take up a hobby:
Reading and writing, drawing and practicing calligraphy, learning a musical instrument, doing a sport......
In this way, the dull and boring days can be lived smoothly.
When people are doing what they like, it is easy to fall into a state of selfless flow.
When you focus on hobbies and pleasure itself, even the most boring life can be born.
Spring is the beginning of the year and the season to look ahead.
From now on, cultivate a hobby and be happy with your heart, and life will be full of vitality.

Look for the sparkle points
In a small town in Germany, there is such a child.
His parents have had high hopes for him since he was a child, taking him to read famous books and practice oil painting every day.
As a result, after a few years, he wrote poorly, and his paintings were like graffiti.
In this way, he began to become more and more inferior, feeling that he was worthless and sorry for his parents' upbringing.
It wasn't until he was 20 years old that he was exposed to chemistry.
In the eyes of others, the symbols and formulas like books in the sky, he can see them at a glance.
During chemical experiments, the strange reactions between various substances also made him excited.
Since then, he has been studying chemistry desperately, doing experiments and research all day long.
As a result, in less than two years, he received a doctorate in chemistry.
The boy who originally had low self-esteem and was introverted also became confident and optimistic because of this.
He is the Nobel Laureate in Chemistry, Otto Wallach.
In fact, many people in life have similar situations to Wallach, and often fall into self-attack.
They also think they are clumsy, and they blame themselves for their low emotional intelligence, and they are worried that they will mess things up if they are not careful.
Over time, they gradually become discouraged in internal friction and lose hope in life.
The host He Jiong said: Everyone in the world can give up on you, but you must see the shining point in yourself.
A person who is not logical but has strong empathy ability can use words to realize self-worth;
A person with unsatisfactory grades, but he has good eloquence and high emotional intelligence, and he can also show himself in words.
In fact, the ruler is short, the inch is long, and everyone has their own advantages and disadvantages.
No matter how dull a person is, as long as he does what he is good at, he can also shine.
Remember, this spring, finding your own shining point is a new life for you.

Learn a specialty dish
Some people say that bad days start with a takeout.
In real life, there are many people who leave the kitchen to dry out and rely on takeout to get by.
As a result, in the greasy fast food, not to mention the damage to the stomach, people become more and more lazy and weak.
They always think that takeout is a convenient life, but they don't know that the fireworks in the world are the most soothing to the hearts of mortals.
When Wang Zengqi was young, he liked to cook very much.
When he had a little spare time, he had to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables himself, he said:
"Some people like to go to department stores, some people like to go to bookstores, and I'd rather go to the wet market.
Look at the raw chickens and live ducks, fresh melons and vegetables, and red peppers, which are lively and lively, crowded one after another, making people feel a kind of fun of life. ”
As Wang Zengqi said, there is a little warmth every day, and the taste is in the world.
Especially in spring, whether it is from the vegetable garden or wild, all kinds of fresh ingredients are on the market.
In the season of recovery, it is better to taste the fresh taste unique to spring.
When you upgrade your cooking skills and learn how to specialize in cooking, you will find that the original joy of life is hidden in the simplest meals and vegetables.

Develop study habits
How long has it been since you left school to pick up a book to study?
In addition to work, many people just enjoy swiping their mobile phones every day.
Unconsciously, I have already lost the desire and ability to learn.
Most people only know how to keep their inherent knowledge and skills, and get a salary that barely survives.
But the reality is that times are changing, ChatGPT is popular, and Sora is on the rise.
In the near future, AI will take over half of our work.
Facing the future, Lu Qi, former president of Baidu, said in an internal engineer meeting:
You have to keep learning every day and make your life different every day. Every outstanding engineer, outstanding technical field, must maintain the ability to learn.
Think of yourself as a piece of software, a piece of code, and today's version must be better than yesterday's, and tomorrow's version will definitely be better than today.
People with low learning ability are destined to be eliminated by the times if they are unable to update and iterate their knowledge base.
So instead of silly waiting for a crisis to strike, take the time to upgrade your skill set.
As the old saying goes, the plan of the year lies in the spring, and the plan of the day lies in the morning.
Spring is a pleasant climate, and people's brains are the most active, which is the most suitable for people to learn new knowledge.
From now on, put down your phone and start filling your brain.
Every new skill you learn now is a guarantee for a stable life in the future.

Learn to manage your time
A few days ago, a friend complained to me:
He is now working overtime every day, so busy that his feet don't touch the ground, and he still has endless work to do.
I have no clue in the face of complicated affairs, I feel like a fly without a head, and my work is getting worse and worse.
In fact, the situation of friends is not unique, and most people have this experience.
The reason for this is that many people lack awareness of time management.
Peter Drucker, the "father of modern management", said:
The core of all management is self-management, and the core of self-management is time management.
Spring is the beginning of the year, and everything grows in an orderly manner according to the season.
The same should be true for people, cultivating their own view of time and working in an orderly manner.
In management, there is a four-quadrant time management method:
Prioritize the work according to its importance and urgency, and then prioritize the incident.
Try to stay focused and do one thing well with 100% of your energy.
When you are able to put your limited energy into the most worthwhile things, you can maximize the value of each day.

Start exercising
Ipsos, a well-known data agency in China, once released a survey:
Sixty-two per cent of young people run a maximum distance of 1 kilometre, and 55 per cent exercise less than once a week.
In life, more and more people neglect to exercise, lose shape at a young age, and the physical examination report is red.
Romain Rolland said:
The source of vitality comes from activity, and if a person does not do physical activity for a long time, not only will his body gradually weaken, but his mind will also become sluggish.
Bai Yansong was once plagued by depression, when he got up in the morning to exercise, and through heavy sweating, he poured out his emotions and relaxed.
In the end, in less than two years, his spirit was full again and he returned to the CCTV stage.
Feng Tang was weak when he was a child, and he was often sick and hospitalized, so the doctor advised him to "run more".
From being out of breath when he started running, to walking like a fly, he repeatedly said that "it was running that saved my life".
Exercise is not only the maintenance of the body, but also the healing of the spirit.
It's spring, the weather is getting warmer, the days are getting longer, and it's the best time to get up in the morning and exercise.
You might as well face the gentle spring breeze, smell the fresh air, activate your muscles and bones, and shake your spirit.
Physical fatigue and mental fatigue can be soothed and healed during exercise.
