14.Try a "non-zero" day Do you know what a "non-zero day" is? A friend of mine once introduced the concept (概念) of "non-zero days" to me.
"Non-zero days" means forming certain (某些) habits so that you can meet your goals. First, you get a calendar and put it on your wall. Try to choose a big calendar that you will see every day when you wake up. Next, you think of a goal of some kind. It can be something big—like getting into a good school or something small—like eating something healthy for lunch.
Every day, after you do something that gets you closer to your
goal, you can put a big "X'" on that day on the calendar. The idea is that every day, you should try to do something that will help you meet your goal. Even small steps, like taking five minutes to exercise or read a book, still count as (算作) "non-zero days". But if you miss a day, you have to put a "0" on that day on the calendar and start over. The goal, of course, is to have no "zero days ".
So as you can see, just doing one small thing every day can make a big difference over time. Can you try to have no more "zero days"?
