10.A peaceful mind is very important for our effectiveness (效率).It keeps us calm no matter what the situation is,and it allows us to stay happy during the day.So,here,I would like to share some ways to have a"mind like water",a state of mind that is as peaceful as calm water.Pick the ones that work for you:
◆Listen to your heart
Your heart tells you what is the right thing to do.It is where your deepest values live.Following what your heart says helps you be true to yourself,and that helps you get a peaceful mind.So learn to listen more to your heart,and do what it tells you to do.
◆Don't take in too much information
Getting more information often means introducing more noise into your mind.That's why limiting(限制) your information intake is important for a calm and peaceful mind.You should take in no more information than necessary.
◆Slow down
Whatever you do,you do not need to be in a hurry.Doing so will only take you faster in the wrong direction.First of all,you need to know the right direction to go.Slow down so that you can clearly hear the voice of your heart.
◆Don't think too much about yourself and try to think something for other people
We usually think about our own needs and problems most of the time.But self-centered thoughts can't bring peace into our mind.Instead,it may make us feel stressed.So don't think too much about yourself,forget yourself for a while.Think about other people more often and think what you can do for others,then do it.Giving will make you happy and give you peace of mind.
