9 . Do you want to be excited about your day? Do you want to go through your day with enthusiasm?     1     How could that happen? Based on my experiences, here is how to be excited about your day.

Have something to be grateful for.

You can’t be excited about your day if you are complaining. You need to build an attitude of gratitude. To build it, find something to be grateful for and fill your mind with it.

You could start with something simple that you might take for granted, such as living in peace or being healthy.     2     For instance, when something went wrong, focus on the lessons that you can learn from it, not on the downsides. This will put you in a positive frame of mind.

Have something to look forward to.

    3     For instance, when Bill Gates was asked about the one thing that most excites him to start his day, his answer was “learning new things”. That is the thing that he looks forward to.

What is the answer in your case? Having a cause that matters to you will help you a lot here.     4    

Manage your energy.

While the two points above can help you start your day with enthusiasm, they might not be enough to sustain (支撑) you throughout the day. For this, you need to manage your energy.     5     As for your mental energy, you can start with a “quiet time” in the morning to help you stay centered throughout the day. Also, avoid filling your mind with negative thoughts. If someone said something bad to you, take the positive takeaway and move on.

A．This includes both your physical and mental energy.

B．After that, you should expect yourself to learn new things.

C．If you want to be enthusiastic, you should try to be grateful.

D．It will give you a sense of purpose as you go through your day.

E．While I still have a lot to improve, I’m often excited about my day.

F．Next, you should have something to look forward to during your day.

G．In addition, focus on the positive side of things, even for seemingly bad things that happened.

A Bowl of Noodles

Jenny was the only child in her home. She had a quarrel with her mother that afternoon and she ran out of the house angrily. She couldn’t help crying sadly when she thought of he scolding from her mother. Having wandered aimlessly in the street for hours, she felt a little hungry and wished for something to eat, but it was not even possible for her, since she had nothing with her. She stood beside a stand for a while, watching the middle-aged seller busy doing his business. However, with no money in hand, she sighed and had to leave.

The seller behind the stand noticed the young girl and asked, “Hey, girl, you want to have the noodles?”

“Oh, yes... but I don’t have money on me...” she replied.

“That’s nothing. I’ll treat you today,” said the man,

“Come in.”

The seller brought her a bowl of noodles, whose smell was so attractive. Jenny thanked the man and started to gobblle (狼吞虎咽) up the delicious food...then cried silently.

“What is it?” asked the man kindly.

“Nothing, actually I was moved by your kindness!” said Jenny as she wiped her tears, “Even a stranger on the street will give me a bowl of noodles, while my mother drove me out of the house. She showed no care for me. She is so mean and cruel!”

Hearing the words, the seller smiled “Girl, do you really think so? I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you thanked me a lot. But it is your mother who has raised you since you were a baby. Can you number the times that she has cooked for you? Have you expressed your thanks to her?”

Jenny sat there, speechless and numb with shock; she remembered her mother’s familiar face and weathered hands. “Why did I not think of that? A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, but I have never thanked my mum for what she has done for me.”

On the way home, Jenny made up her mind to make an apology to her mother for her rudeness as soon as she arrived home.
