Have you ever thought about making some changes to make life more interesting?,Translation,Text A,Unit 10 Changes,TEXT A,Simple Changes for a Better Life1 Like a lot of people, I used to have a pretty fixed routine each day, and I often felt bored and frustrated. I used to dream of winning the lottery and having an exciting life. Then I came across an article that changed the way I think. It said, “You dont need to do anything major to make life more interesting. Just try a few simple changes.” The article went on to give some suggestions and here are a few examples:,Translation, take a different route to work or school; have lunch with someone you dont know well; start a conversation with a stranger every day; find free activities to do in the evenings and at weekends; call a different friend or relative every week.,Text A,Unit 10 Changes,Translation,2 So, I started to make some of these changes. For example, I used to complain that you need a lot of money to have fun. Its just not true. A quick search on the Internet and in my local paper, and I found lots of free activities exhibitions at museums and galleries, concerts given by local schools and clubs. In a month I went out three or four times a week, and every weekend, and it didnt cost me a thing.,Text A,Unit 10 Changes,Translation,3 Then I decided to put all of these ideas on a website. I was amazed at the number of people who visited the site and left positive comments. Take Jacks comment for instance: “Im into sport and Im quite good at it. But I found that even something I enjoy could become boring. I was definitely a creature of habit. I used to train on the same days, at exactly the same time, and do exactly the same things. All my friends were playing the same sports, so I never met anyone new. Then someone mentioned Mikes website and I decided to check it out. The advice there was beautifully simple add variety and you will get your motivation back. Now I do a different exercise routine every day, have taken up judo for the first time, and Im also helping local kids get into sport. I feel so much more positive.”,Text A,Unit 10 Changes,Translation,4 So there you have it. Simple changes for a more interesting day. Why not give it a try?
