Ways to Brighten Your Morning

让您的早晨更愉快的醒来

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分钟听音乐。 或者坐在门廊沉思。

这让你夜里的灵感形成白天里的一项行动计划。

Wake to the smell of coffee.

闻着咖啡的香味。

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。买你能买得起的最好的咖啡--最好是新鲜的咖啡豆--并且往你的咖啡机里放你曾经放过的两倍的量，你的咖啡机也是特别买的，因为它有一个闹钟，可以调节开始磨咖啡的时间。很浓郁的咖啡味会像你的睡裤后面有一个鱼钩一样把你从床上钓出来。另外，如果你有喝咖啡的习惯的话，早上是最好的时间。咖啡能够通过多种作用刺激你的中枢神经系统，就像其他的药物一样（比如安非他命）让你清醒，增强活力。更好的是：对18个男人的研究表明咖啡提高了头脑清楚度，幸福感和平静度和这些男人在注意力测试、处理信息、解决问题时的能力。
