Four Goals for Perfect Life

Healthy and Fit

The first goal common to all of us is health and energy. 【小题1】Today, with the incredible advances in medical science, the quality of our health and fitness, and our lifespan(寿命), is largely determined by design, not by chance. People with excellent health habits are far healthier, have more energy, and live longer and better than people who have poor health habits.

Excellent Relationships

【小题2】Fully 85% of your happiness will be determined by the quality of your relationships at each stage, and in each area, of your life. How well you get along with people, and how much they like, love and respect you, has more impact on the quality of your life than perhaps any other factor.

Do What You Love

The third common goal is to do work that we enjoy, to do it well, and to be well paid for it. 【小题3】You want to earn the very most that is possible for you at each stage of your career, whatever you do.

【小题4】

The fourth goal we all have in common is to achieve financial independence. 【小题5】You want to be completely free of financial worries. You want to be able to order dinner in a restaurant without using the price listings to determine what you want to eat.

Big Bubbles

We all love bubbles. They float through the air like little glass balls, shining with colors and light. You can make bubbles with dishwashing soap and a paper cup. Soap makes the water stick together in a round shape. The bubbles you blow will be really big!

Here’s what you will need:

• A large bowl • A spoon • 4 cups of water

• 5 tablespoons of dishwashing soap

• A pair of scissors

• A paper cup

Follow these steps(步骤) to make big bubbles:

1. Fill the bowl with the water.

2. Add the dishwashing soap into the water and mix them together.

3. Cut a small hole in the bottom of the paper cup. This is the hole that you will blow through.

4. Dip the top rim of the cup into the soapy water. Slowly lift the cup out of the bowl. There should be a thin “window” of soapy water filling the open space of the cup.

5. Slowly put your mouth up to the hole in the bottom of the cup. Gently blow air through the hole. A big bubble will rise into the air! For   a party, you can make a bowl of soapy water and a paper cup bubble-blower for each friend. If your friends do step 4 and 5 again and again, just think of how many bubbles you can make together!

Spring marathons are approaching, and we’re here to help you prepare for the starting line. 【小题1】.

What training plan should I use?

【小题2】. Some people respond well to logging high mileage six days a week, while others prefer lower-intensity plans that allow for more cross-training and fewer running days. The best marathon training plan is the one that suits your needs and preferences.

【小题3】?

The duration of your marathon training plan depends on your experience level, current fitness, and the expert or authority you’re following. Typically, marathon training lasts 12 to 20 weeks, with most plans falling within the 16-to 20-week range.

What if I miss training time?

It’s important to stick to your training plan in order to run your best race. However, no one’s training is perfect. Don’t worry if you miss some runs due to life events or unexpected circumstances. 【小题4】.

What if my training feels too difficult?

Marathon training is no easy task. At times, this can feel overbearing and difficult. You should be uncomfortable to some degree, which is normal when growing in anything. 【小题5】. If it does, consider adjusting your plan or seeking advice from experienced runners or coaches.

Finally, don’t forget about fueling during training and racing, as well as what to wear on race day. With the right training plan, preparation, and attention to these details, you’ll be well-equipped to run your best race yet — whether it’s your first or 50th!
