2. 8 Ways to “Refresh” Yourself
• Have you ever felt
tired, depressed and
want nothing to do?
Have time to press F5 for yourself!

3. A Glass of Water
• Lack of water will make you tired; blithering, impact
to your healthy. Thereby, before you begin to solve a
problem or need to focus your work, you should
drink a glass of water (unless you are taken ill).
 Beside, it’s good for
your health if you drink
enough water everyday.

4. 15 Minutes Sedentarily
• The “out flow” thinking will make you
feel heavier when you start working.
So spend 15 minutes trying not to
think your mind and let it empty. This
is quite difficult but you try to
maintain it, pull your thought flows
come peace.
Concentration and sedateness will help you more
clear and confident to face up the problems that
need to be solved.

5. Dismiss any Worries
• You can not focus on your work when your troubles
disturb. Look for a box (cookie box, tissue box, …), write
down a paper things that you are being worries and
then put in the box.
 When you are worried by them, glance at
the box and tell yourself: the worry that has
been locked in the box and can not be
bothered me.

6. Record the Success
• Recording the results, dreams that you have
achieved during the past. You should know
that the success is often easily forgotten
than failure. So the success you achieve will
be a source of motivation and inspiration to
help you work, and also a solution for the
difficulties you face.

7. 5 Minutes to Relax
• No one can withstand the pressure and focus throughout
a long period. Sometimes you feel so tired and apparently
you can not do anything anymore. Never let yourself fall
into a “string” situation like that.
 Please spend 5 minutes to relax after
two hours working. You can relax
with a favorite music, a video clip
or some gentle exercise movements
simple.

8. Come to Nature
• In addition to creating a healthy
atmosphere, greenery in the work
office very well for your mind
relaxed. Think about what the
scene beside the window make you
more comfortable: a concrete
parking lot or a greensward with
several small flowers?
 Certainly, choice an easy growing plant in
the office is not a luxury.

9. Symbol Yourself
• Have you ever wondered why some people
put so many miscellaneous in their table that
not related to work? These are symbols for
themselves.
 Psychologically, property of funniness
made us feel as special one as, is
unique. In this state, we are very excited
thinking leads to more efficient. Take a
look through the store, choose a funny
and really mean thing for yourself.

10. "Fix home"
• A boring scene will not only kill creativity but also make you stress when
you sit on your desk. Eliminate what is not used, change position of
objects, reset the desktop wallpaper, hang funny things to wall or screen.
