If you took the strengths of others and compared them to your weaknesses, would this make you feel good? The funny thing is that this is what most of us do at one time or another—and some of us do it pretty often. It’s a sure-fire recipe for a drop in self-confidence and for unhappiness. So how can we stop comparing ourselves with others? Here are some tips I’ve found useful.

Awareness

Most often we do these social comparisons without realizing we’re doing it. It’s a natural act, I suppose. So the solution is to become aware. If you focus on these thoughts for a few days, it will become much easier with practice, and soon it’ll be hard not to notice.

Stop yourself

Once you realize you’re making these comparisons, stop yourself. Don’t feel bad—just admit the thought, and gently change the focus.

Count your blessings

Focus on what you do have, and on what you are already blessed with. Count what you have, not what you don’t have. Think about how lucky you are to have what you have, to have the people in your life who care about you. If you always want what others have, you will never have enough. You will always want more. That’s an endless cycle, and it will never lead to happiness. Instead, learn to realize that what you have is already enough.

Focus on your strengths

Instead of looking at your weaknesses, ask yourself what your strengths are. Be proud of them. Work on using them to your best advantages.

No one is perfect—we all know that. But we seem to feel bad when we don’t reach perfection. You aren’t perfect and you never will be. Keep trying to improve, but don’t think you’ll ever be the “perfect person”. If you realize that imperfection is what makes you who you are, you are already perfect.

Have you ever intended to be fully absorbed in your work but found yourself distracted (走神) by e-mail, the Internet and other things throughout the day? According to the survey made by a famous university in the USA, most people have the experience.

“People often lose their concentration when they are bored, of course, but also when they are engaged in challenging tasks,” says Peter Bregman, the head of the survey. “They sometimes have a feeling to escape from what’s difficult or boring, so they jump out,” he says. The part of the brain devoted to attention is connected to the brain’s emotional center. Any strong emotion —quarrels with colleagues, problems at home —can interrupt our attention. Studies over the last decade have shown that too much work to do at a time can easily lead to distraction.

Refocusing is hard for many people. Robert Epstein suggests the following, “Stop and listen to some soft music for a few minutes. Find a good friend or a teacher and say out your matter on your mind. Go for a short walk or take a deep breath, where you breathe in deeply, count to five slowly, hold it and breathe out very slowly. This can blow out all the tension and the unwanted in your mind to restore your focus.”

Take more control by structuring your time and becoming more aware of your behaviors.“Setting the phone alarm to go off every hour is my way of creating awareness,”Mr. Bregman says.“You have to inform yourself that you’ve lost focus in order to do something about it.” Starting the day with a to-do list is also important, such as when to eat, when to go to the gym or take a walk. But if it’s overly ambitious, you will put yourself in a state of anxiety, which makes it hard for the brain to concentrate. “Choosing three or four things as your priority (優(yōu)先) for the day allows your brain to settle down and focus,” he says.

1.According to the passage, which is NOT the reason why some people can be distracted from their work?

A. They don’t want to be devoted to their work.

B. They are disturbed by the Internet and other things.

C. They can’t find interest in their work.

D. They feel their work is too hard for them.

2.Which incident might not interrupt your attention?

A. You were scolded by your teacher.

B. You had words with your good friend.

C. You went to school at six as usual.

D. Your mother and father had a quarrel.

3.According to Robert Epstein, how can we refocus on what we should do?

A. Listen to rock music for some time.

B. Turn to your good friends or teachers for help.

C. Run around the playground for some time.

D. Take a breath from time to time.

4.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “restore”in the passage?

A. recover B. reform

C. release D. react

1. Penguins Mate for Life

During the mid-2000s, films like "Happy Feet" made penguins all the rage, and young lovers went around spreading the facts like "penguins mate for life." While the idea is sweet, it's not exactly true.

Penguins usually stick with their partners through the mating season, but when it's time to mate again, they choose whomever is convenient, not necessarily their old flame.

2. Vincent Van Gogh Cut Off His Entire Ear

This is not entirely true. It was not his entire ear - just the tip of the lobe(耳垂) - and some say he didn't even do it. Van Gogh lived with artist Paul Gauguin, who had quite a violent temper, and many believe Gauguin actually did the cutting.

Either way, Van Gogh did reportedly send the tip to a prostitute.

3. Napoleon Bonaparte was Short

Everyone knows Napoleon Bonaparte was a tiny man - after all, his nickname was "le Petit Corporal." His reputation for being short even inspired the phenomenon known as the "Napoleon complex."

In reality, Napoleon stood around 5 feet and 7 inches tall, which was very average back in the day. Many believe his nickname was meant as a term of endearment, not a reference to his height.

4. Ben Franklin Preferred a Turkey to a Bald Eagle

The bald eagle is certainly a well-known representation of America, but legend has it that if Ben Franklin had his way, a turkey would have been much better. In reality, Franklin wrote a letter to his daughter mocking the eagle symbol used in a seal(印章) by the Society of the Cincinnati, a private military group.

He said it looked like a turkey and may as well be one.

5. You Have Five Senses

If you remember learning about the senses in elementary school, you know humans possess five: sight, smell, hearing, touch, and taste. Most scientists agree, however, that you have more like 10-20 senses, including pain, hunger, thirst, temperature, and more.

6. George Washington had Wooden Teeth

George Washington is known for three things: being the first president, chopping down a cherry tree, and having wooden teeth. At least one of these is certainly not true. While Washington did have bad teeth, his dentures(假牙) were not wooden.

7. Einstein was a Bad Student

If you ever made bad grades and pulled the old "Albert Einstein used to make bad grades" card with your parents or teachers, you are lucky you got away with it. In reality, Einstein was at the top of his class and mastered calculus when he was barely a teenager.

The reputation he developed for being a bad student had more to do with his behavior. He liked to talk back to his teachers.

1.Which is the true fact according to the passage?

A. Penguins usually stick with their partners through their whole lives.

B. Franklin laughed at the eagle symbol used in a seal and said it looked like a turkey.

C. Napoleon was much shorter than average.

D. George Washington’s false teeth were made of wooden.

2.Why do most people hold the idea that Albert Einstein used to make bad grades?

A. Because he used to like to talk with his teachers.

B. Because he used to be criticized by his parents.

C. Because he used to be different from other students.

D. Because he used to behave badly and usually didn’t respect his teachers.
