克服惰性的方法
How Can I Fight Laziness?
Lazy people will never achieve anything in life. However, laziness can be defeated once a few changes have been made in your mind.
1.______ Many people lack sleep constantly, since
由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费
由莲山课件提供http://www.5ykj.com/ 资源全部免费
they stay up too late and get up too early to prepare for work. These people have little motivation once they arrive home. Laziness works hand in hand with a lack of motivation and a tendency to put off things. By adjusting your sleep schedule to provide a few more hours of meaningful rest, you can fight laziness throughout the day.
Another way to fight laziness is to change your mind from passive to active. Some people treat their lives as if they were pushed from task to task. Others take a more proactive approach, viewing each task as a challenge they must overcome alone. 2.______
Some people fight laziness by removing the temptations that surround them. A television in the living room may

provide entertainment, but watching too much TV often contributes to laziness. 3.______ Complete a few tasks and reward yourself with what you enjoy, such as a good dinner or a film.
Laziness can also be a lasting problem at home. Couples and children may all have different energy levels, but laziness can be spread if not being dealt with immediately. 4.______ Be the first to collect and wash dishes after a meal. Others in the home may eventually follow your example and practice their own task. It is difficult to practice laziness when you are surrounded by motivated people. 5.______ Enough exercise and a balanced diet can help you to develop a healthy lifestyle,
