章节摘录
1. Do something new. Very little thats new occurs in our lives. The impact of this sameness on our emotional energy is gradual,but huge: Its like a tire with a slow leak. Youdont notice it at first, but eventually youll get a flat. Its upto you to plug the leak——even though there are always a dozen reasons to stay stuck in your dull routines oflife. Thats where Maura, 36, a waitress, found herself a year ago. Fortunately, Maura had a lifeline——a group of women friends who meet regularly to discuss their lives.Their lively discussions spurred Maura to make small but nevertheless life-altering changes. She joined a gymin the next town. She changed her look with a short haircut and new black T-shirts. Eventually, Mauragathered the courage to quit her job and start her own business. Heres a challenge. If its something you wouldnt ordinarily do, do it. Try a dish youve never eaten.Listen to music youd ordinarily tune out. Youll discover these small things add to your emotional energy. 2. Reclaim lifes meaning. So many of my patients tell me that their lives used to have meaning, but that somewhere along the linethings went stale. The first step in solving this meaning shortage is to figure out what you really care about, and then dosomething about it. A case in point is Ivy, 57, a pioneer in investment banking. "l mistakenly believed thatall the money I made would mean something," she says. "But I feel lost, like a 22-year-old wondering what todo with her life". Ivys solution? She started a program that shows Wall Streeters how to donate time andmoney to poor children. In the process, Ivy filled her life with meaning. 3. Put yourself in the fun zone. Most of us grown-ups are seriously fun-deprived. High-energy people have the same day-to-day work asthe rest of us, but they manage to find something enjoyable in every situation. A real-estate broker I knowkeeps herself amused on the job by mentally redecorating the houses she shows to clients. "I love imaginingwhat even the most run-down house could look like with a little tender loving care," she says. "Its a chal-lenge——and the least desirable properties are usually the most fun." We all define fun differently, of course, but I can guarantee this: If you put just a bit of it into your day,your energy will increase quickly.
