Get smarter

    让自己更聪明

    Most of us wish we had time to learn something new or get better at things we're only OK at. Libraries and bookstores are filled with how-to books on everything from gardening to writing to crafts. If you crave structure, look into courses at a community center or college where you may be able to audit at a reduced rate.

    多数人都希望自己能有时间学习新东西；或者提高自己本来马马虎虎的方面。图书馆和书店有许多各个方面的指导丛书，从园艺、写作到手工艺。如果你喜欢建筑，那么在当地社区中心或大学看看有没有相关课程可以让你能少花钱旁听一下。

    Volunteer

    做志愿者

    Check Websites of organizations you're interested in, or call and ask if they have volunteer programs. Animal shelters, libraries, hospices, after-school programs and most other nonprofits welcome help.

    去看看你感兴趣的组织的网站，或是打电话问问是否有志愿者计划。 动物救助所、图书馆、收容所、课后培训及多数非盈利机构都需要志愿者。

    Get out of the house

    不要闷在家里

    This can be more challenging than you realize. Forcing yourself to leave home will also require that you (a) get dressed, (b) comb your hair and (c) leave the refrigerator behind. These are all good for your health. If the weather cooperates, go walking.

    这比你想象的要困难。强迫自己离开家需要你（a）穿好衣服（b）梳好头（c）远离电冰箱（食物）。这些对你的健康有好处。如果天气好，去散步吧。
