追求更好生活-把给人带来微笑当做每天的一个任务(2)

Seek out happiness in your every day lives

 

追求更好生活

 

Get a good night's rest.

 

This is truly imperative¹ to your well being, not just physically², but mentally, as well. You should be getting at least 7 hours of sleep a night, if not more. If you find yourself catching³ less shut eye, make a conscious effort to turn off all electronics an hour before bed so you have some time to relax& unwind.

 

Make it a goal to make someone smile every day.

 

It doesn't have to be something extravagant⁴. It truly is the little things that mean the most in life - such as smiling at a complimenting someone on a feature or outfit,or even holding the door open for the person behind you.
