create a happier summer
夏天這么過
Say no to the shoulds of the summer.
對那些夏天必做的事情說NO
The sneaky shoulds can make a vacation filled with things you“just have to do before the summer is over”seem like draining work and leave you more tired than you were before your time off even started.
那些討厭的“夏日必做”會讓假期充滿了“在夏天結束前必須做”的事情,好像會耽誤工作,而且會讓你比夏天開始前更疲倦。
So ask yourself: Will this matter in 5 years? Or even 5 months?
所以問問你自己:這些事在5年內重要嗎?5個月呢?
Zooming out like this makes it easier to see the real value of doing something. And it makes it easier to simply relax and to say no to doing something because you realize that it isn’t that important anyway.
像這樣縮小“必做”范圍會更容易看清楚做某件事的真正價值,也更容易放松自己,對做某件事說NO,因為你知道它并沒有那么重要。
【知識點講解】
fill with (使)充[擠]滿; 使滿懷(某種情感等);
