Proper pressure can be a good thing: It can push you toward accomplishing tasks.     1    . But sometimes the stress can be too much. Psychologist Travis explains that there is a best level of stress. With less than that, you may lack interest or motivation.     2     If you can reduce the stress and stay calm, you’ll have a better chance of succeeding.

Breathe out

Psychotherapist Tom suggests an effective yet simple relaxation technique: Slowly expel (排出) all the air from your lungs until there is nothing left and then count to 3 before taking the next breath normally.     3    . The act of letting go of all the air lowers your shoulders and relaxes your muscles. When you are physically more relaxed, you will function better under pressure.

Keep healthy daily habits

Ensure that you are eating healthy foods.     4    . Proper diet and rest may be all you need to reset your biological stress reactions to more manageable levels. In addition, regular exercise has been shown to reduce stress.

    5    

Regardless of how much pressure the other person is applying, or how much stress you feel, avoid reacting before you have had a chance to calmly consider what you think about the issue. Leave the room and go for a walk, make some coffee or sit alone in a quiet spot to allow yourself to decide what is the best for you.

A.Think twice before you do
B.Repeat this two to four times
C.Take a break to recollect your thoughts
D.Make sure that you are getting enough sleep
E.It can also help you focus your attention so you perform better
F.With more, you may be too anxious to handle difficult situations
G.Staying calm requires you to keep a few important things in mind

【推荐1】What Do Successful People Do on Friday?

    1    

Though you have two days between Friday and the next work week, knowing what to expect about the coming Monday will help you relax over the weekend.     2     Discuss what will be happening in the future with your colleagues to make sure everyone is on the same page.

Go for a walk

If you have a lunch break, recharge your batteries by getting up from the desk and taking a walk.     3    . Simply stretch your legs, walk around the office space, and let your mind wander. If you can get outside, head somewhere where there is plenty of greens, as this will promote your mood and make you feel more awake. Better yet, bring a group along for the trip for some team-building.

Visit your co-workers

    4    . These people are dealing with the same matters as you are. Walk around the office, stopping by every desk to simply check in with people and learn a little about them. Successful CEOs also use the end of the week to notice the accomplishments of their employees. Not only is it great to know the people you are working with, but the simple action of checking in with everyone creates a sense of community that boosts spirits to finish the week on a high note.

Make a routine

Many CEOs and successful people are known for having regular work. Organization is key to success, after all. Take 15 to 30 minutes every Friday to clean out your email inbox, clean the office, organize your files, catch up on the latest industry news.     5    

A.Schedule the coming week
B.It does not have to be outside
C.Exercise outdoors is a good choice
D.A valuable resource in the office would be your colleagues
E.And form a habit of clearing up the mess that may ruin your Monday
F.No matter what difficulties you face, make sure to overcome it together
G.Get a rough outline put together about the upcoming events, tasks, project deadlines

【推荐2】Do you ever walk out of a room with an idea in your head, only to discover moments later that it's gone? 1f so, don't worry: it's a very common experience.     1    

The problem is often caused by "event boundaries".     2    They make you believe that a particular mental task is over.

Tests have proved that we're much more forgetful when we move from one location to another.    3    It's because anything that seems like the end of a task — closing a study book, finishing a phone call, taking a cake out of the oven — can have the same effect. Within seconds, much information in your mind has disappeared.

    4    First, stop telling your brain that its work is done. This can be as simple as leaving a book open instead of putting it back on the shelf. Second, create clues to carry with you across any unavoidable event boundary. Notice when these end-points are coming up, and spend a moment improving your memory.

If possible, say the key points out loud: the job you're walking off to do in the next room, for example, or the plans you've just made on the phone. We actually know memory depends on imagery.       5    

Every day you're faced with event boundaries that may restrict your recall. But by avoiding them when you can, and disguising them when you can’t, you'll find that much less of your learning gets lost.

A.But here's how to fight back.
B.So picture the details you want to keep.
C.Many of us don't know how to deal with it properly.
D.These are what your memory uses to stop remembering.
E.And scientists believe that we can explain and approach it.
F.But the same happens when we go from one activity to another, too.
G.And only in this way can we overcome event boundaries successfully.

【推荐3】How to Get Along with Your Roommate

Unless you plan to live at home while attending college, you’re going to be faced with sharing personal space, bathrooms, TVs, closets and much more. Getting along with your college roommate can be a difficult situation because sharing space with others is not always easy.     1    .

Get to know your roommate.

Before college starts, spend time together to learn about each other’s hometown, friends and family. Knowing a bit of your roommate’s background will help you understand them and hopefully get your living situation stared off on the right foot.     2    , but showing mutual respect will make for better living conditions.

Learn to communicate.

Be clear with your message but don’t forget to listen as well. You will achieve very little if you don’t communicate and actively listen.

    3    ! Approach your roommate in private when they have time to hold a meaningful conversation, and be clear about what is bothering you.

    4    .

While texting or e-mailing your roommate is not a good idea, it will allow you to write down your concerns and edit the message before sending it. For those who get stressed out over conflict, this may be a good solution. If you and your roommate cannot find a compromise to your problems, it may be time to get your counsellors involved. They are trained to deal with such situations and can usually help find reasonable solutions.

Don’t be nervous.     5    , and learn to let the small things go. Consider all of the positives that come with having a roommate. Who knows, in the meantime, you may have just found your best friend for life!

A.You don’t have to be best friends
B.Consider different ways to solve conflict
C.College life is supposed to be most challenging
D.Stay flexible, accept your roommates for who they are
E.Here are some tips that can help the change go more smoothly
F.To expand your circle of friends, consider joining an interest club
G.Talking directly with your roommate is always better than talking behind their back
