Realizing your dreams is not a matter of possibility; it’s a matter of motivating yourself to focus on the right things.You know you should be doing something, but sometimes you just don’t feel like doing anything.This discouraging situation can last a long time if you don’t head it off and take action.Here are some daily motivation tricks that might work for you.
________
This is by far the most important tip in this article, because in the end, all of the other tips in the world won’t make as much of a difference as this simple and timeless instruction: Sit down and get a move on! Do you feel the push-back of laziness? Reading more about motivation won’t help.Reviewing your to-do lists won’t help.Only doing actually helps get everything going.So stop thinking about how hard the task is going to be or how long it’s going to take you.Not starting is failing.Tell yourself, “As soon as I get going, I’ll feel more motivated.” And you’ll realize it’s not nearly as hard as you thought it would be.
________
Be aware of your self-talk and stay confident.You have the choice to replace negative self-talk with a more encouraging and friendly voice.A voice that will consider your aim as not just a possibility, but a probability; A voice that does not look at the possibility of success before taking action, but rather uses self-belief as its driving force; A voice that all things are possible to those who commit to their dream.
Tell yourself over and over again that you can do it.See what effect it has.Persist with this kind of positivity and eventually you’ll feel better about whatever it is you want to get done, and you’ll even start to fool yourself into believing it’s true.
_______
There is no better way to recharge yourself for improvement than spending time with someone who motivates you.They are smart and can always encourage you to be better.Study their qualities.Study their habits.Surround yourself with them, talk to them, learn from them; they are already living and producing results at a level you admire and expect to.Compare stories, successes and failures.Let their inner light guide you.
________
You have made so much progress, you just don’t realize it.Open your eyes and give yourself credit for all that you have done.Think about it.Write down your past successes.Consider using a journal to keep track of them.You’ll probably be pleasantly surprised when you review your results.It’s a great motivator to see how much you have improved and how far you have come.Be happy with your progress and move on.
________
Do not judge unsuccessful attempts and mistakes as an indication of your future potential, but as part of the growth process.Something does not have to end well for it to have been one of the most valuable experiences of a lifetime.When times get tough, take a deep breath, and know that most great things come when you least expect it.Being defeated is a temporary condition; giving up is what makes it permanent.And most people that gave up didn’t realize how close they were to success.Push through!

A.Get started!
B.Forget your failures.
C.Find and use your positive voice.
D.Think about how far you have come.

E.Spend time with people who inspire you.
F.Accept failure as a positive learning experience.

根据短文内容,从下边的A—F选项中选出能概括每一段主题的最佳选项。选项中有一项为多余选项。

Tips on How to Think Positive
        
Your thoughts that consist of mental images and self talk are on automatic mode (状态). When you see, hear, smell or touch something, your mind comes out with its mental representation. You will then find yourself feeling something. To develop positive thinking, become aware of your feelings by checking them from time to time. Ask yourself what you were thinking and what caused the thought. Take note of what you were saying to yourself.
        
How often do you say things such as “It happens every time” when something doesn’t turn out right? What do you say to yourself when you have made a mistake? Do you say things like, “Stupid of me. Here I go again?” Another tip on how to think positive is to catch yourself saying all these negative things. Demand your inner self to stop. You can say something such as, “Stop it. I am much better than that. The next time I will …”
        
Your beliefs shape your thoughts. If you believe you can’t do something or if you have conditioned your mind to see unpleasantness in people or situations, you will see and experience them in your life. You can change your limiting and negative beliefs by challenging and questioning them. You can also do so by re-framing things or changing your view.
        
Your thoughts determine what you focus on. You can force yourself to see and focus on the positive side of things, people and yourself. Develop an attitude of seeing things in a new or different perspective. Instead of thinking and seeing what doesn’t work, look at what works. Rather than seeing something as a problem or difficulty, consider it as an opportunity. Once you see things differently, you will think in a different manner.
        
Get out in the open and get physically active. Make it a habit to exercise daily. Exercise affects your attitude about life. It is one of the ways to prevent or reduce stress and anxiety and maintain mental health. Practice healthy eating so that you can maintain your weight, prevent sickness and reduce the risk of major health problems. Read and listen to motivational and self-help books or recordings. Spending too much time sitting at home watching television and filling your mind with bad news and reality shows won’t help expand your thinking.

Five Ways to Instantly Rid Yourself of Needless Worry
A while back, I had a great day and everything was going exactly as I wanted.I was meeting tons of new people and everything was amazing.I felt like I've accomplished a lot.Then suddenly, like an unexpected swift jab, someone made a small remark about me.I felt hurt and the worry began flowing in.Over the years, I've developed belief systems that help me get rid of these worries.I want to share these with you.
______ It just isn't possible to get everyone to like you.Trust me, I've tried.This only leads to disappointment on a daily basis, since you can't possibly live up to the entire world's expectations.Here's a new goal for you instead if you really want to get rid of worry and unhappiness from your life.Focus on what you think of yourself.Who cares what that stranger thinks? If you're happy with who you are and you know what weaknesses you should fix then forget about the world.Life is bigger than trying to look awesome; life is about actually being awesome.
______ The first thing I ask myself is, will this negative thought affect me in the future at all? Is it going to decrease my quality of life somehow? More often than not, it's just something I'll soon forget about anyway.So I put myself into the future by a couple of days and imagine myself.In this vision, I realize that I won't be bothered by something so small and I most likely wouldn't even remember it.A lot of times, just the idea of it fleeting away very soon is enough for me to block out these disturbances.
______ When I feel like I'm inadequate based on the need for approval from others, I begin to do some self-reflect on my achievements.I think about how much I've improved in the past year.I've met amazing people, developed active listening skills, and started something I've been thinking about for the past two years.Looking further back, I transformed from a socially awkward kid to a socially lively and confident person.All thanks to mental skills that I consciously yield.I was blessed with true fortunes that others do not have; I was blessed with the gift of self-improvement.
_______ Write anywhere you can, whether it's in a blog, in your journal, or on a post-it note that you can throw dramatically into the ocean.Get those worries out onto paper.Look at it, assess its importance, then tear it, burn it, or throw it into the ocean like I just said.You can then look back at that paper you just destroyed and laugh at how ridiculous you were being.Who cares if that lady looked at you strangely? Who cares that someone may have noticed stains on your new white sneakers? Write all of that, then destroy it.
_____ Finally, just reflect on how short life is; focus on how life is constantly fleeting.Do you really want to spend what little time you have on this beautiful earth worrying about something you won't even remember by next week? Don't be silly, get out there and enjoy life.You've got it pretty good, I'd bet.Don't waste it on needless worry.

CareerBuilder’s annual Father’s Day survey found that 22 percent of fathers say their work has negatively affected relationships with their children, while 26 percent believe their job has hurt relationships with significant others.
U.S.workers are looking for a little pat on the back,according to a new study.The latest Globoforce Workforce Mood Tracker revealed that more than half of employees would leave their current job to go work for a company that recognized their efforts. The research shows a direct correlation between recognition and retention.
It’s lonely at tile top, and CEOs know that better than anyone, according to a new poll.While being a CEO may come with prestige and financial benefits.a study by RHR International, a global executive talent development firm, revealed that the high, ranking position is often accompanied by isolation.
While women are doing less housework than they used to. they still take on the brunt of the household cleaning chores. New research indicates that this extra work stresses them out,and that stress worsens when there is salary or gender inequality present in the relationship. Though both men and women spend less time spent on domestic duties, women still take on a large amount of the work, studies show.
Saying “thank you” may be a simple way to boost marital happiness,new research suggests. This cycle of appreciation may also make for longer-lasting relationships.” Feeing appreciated by your partner influences how you act in your relationship, and how much you want to stay in that relationship,”study researcher told Live Science.

Most Americans would find it hard to imagine what life would look like without cars.  . The polluted air becomes poisonous and dangerous to health.
. That’s what several of the large car factories have been trying to do. But to build a clean car is easier said than done. Progress in this field has been slow.
Another way is to take the place of the car engine by something else.  . Many makers believe that it will take years to develop a practical model that pleases man.

A. use the Internet safely
B. make up emergency plan
C. stay away from strangers
D. be aware of stranger danger
E. turn to trusted adult for help
F. keep family information in mind
Everyone wants their children to be safe, but many parents may wonder if they are doing all they can to ensure their child’s safety. By providing your children with some basic knowledge and information, you can equip them for possible future emergencies. Giving your children basic lessons in safety provides them with the tools they need to deal with safety problems in the future.

Your child should know his full name and address, as well as his home telephone number. Children who are school-aged should be able to remember this information easily. While you should advise your child never to share this information with a stranger, it can be useful if he is ever separated from you and needs to tell the police who he is and to whom he belongs.

Teach your child that he should never speak to anyone he doesn’t know, Unless you are near him. Do not scare him into believing that every adult he meets out is to hurt him. Simply warn him that he should be careful and never go anywhere or share personal information with an adult he doesn’t know.

If your family faces an emergency such as a natural disaster, you need a plan to organizing your efforts. You should practice this plan with your child for several situation. For example,you need to determine where your family reunite if some members are away from home during an emergency, and where inside your home you will go if a disaster strikes.

If your child is particularly shy, he may be afraid of all adults who aren’t known to him. Unfortunately, this can extend to helpful adults, such as doctors, police officers and fire fighters. Teach your child about the people who may help him in an emergency, and help him be comfortable around those people so that he will ask for help if he needs it.

If you allow your child to use the Internet, teach him to use safely. Do not allow him go into chat rooms or use other online forums to discuss personal information with strangers. If he has a social networking site page, such as Facebook or MySpace, make sure he only adds real friends lists, not strangers. Never let him meet anyone in person if he only met them online.
