Ways to Brighten Your Morning

讓您的早晨更愉快的醒來

Spend 5 to 10 minutes each morning listening to music or sitting on the deck or porch just thinking.

This allows the creative thinking that takes place during the night to gel and form into a plan of action, grounding you for the day.

每天早上花5到10分鐘聽音樂。 或者坐在門廊沉思。

這讓你夜里的靈感形成白天里的一項行動計劃。

Wake to the smell of coffee.

聞著咖啡的香味。

Really great coffee. Buy the absolute best coffee you can afford -- fresh beans are preferred -- and put twice the amount you've been using into your coffee maker, the one you bought specifically because it has an alarm that can be set to start brewing times. The strong scent of strong coffee will pull you out of bed like a fishhook in the back of your pajamas. Plus, if you're going the caffeine route, morning is the best time for it. Caffeine is a central nervous system stimulant that acts in many ways like other stimulant drugs such as amphetamines, waking you up and increasing your muscular activity. Even better: A study of 18 men found that caffeine improved clear-headedness, happiness, and calmness, as well as the men's ability to perform on attention tests and to process information and solve problems.

上好的咖啡。買你能買得起的最好的咖啡--最好是新鮮的咖啡豆--并且往你的咖啡機里放你曾經放過的兩倍的量，你的咖啡機也是特別買的，因為它有一個鬧鐘，可以調節開始磨咖啡的時間。很濃郁的咖啡味會像你的睡褲后面有一個魚鉤一樣把你從床上釣出來。另外，如果你有喝咖啡的習慣的話，早上是最好的時間。咖啡能夠通過多種作用刺激你的中樞神經系統，就像其他的藥物一樣（比如安非他命）讓你清醒，增強活力。更好的是：對18個男人的研究表明咖啡提高了頭腦清楚度，幸福感和平靜度和這些男人在注意力測試、處理信息、解決問題時的能力。
