Year in and year out, we all make resolutions to better ourselves. Gym memberships surge, restaurants serve more salads and people reduce their smoking, drinking and spending. Making a resolution is one thing, but sticking to that resolution can be an uphill battle -- these are lifelong habits you're trying to break. Kafi A. Martin, a health and lifestyle expert and CEO of Island Sweat, offers her tips for staying focused. In short, think long term. 日复一日年复一年，每到新年时分我们都会列新年目标，希望可以完善自身。健身房的会员业务量激增、餐馆的健康食品卖得更多、戒烟戒酒戒花钱的人儿也遍地都是。不过，列目标是一回事，但坚持下去就是场艰苦卓绝的战役了：要知道，你在努力戒掉的，是长期以来养成的习惯。Kafi.A.Martin 是一位生活健康专家，同时也是Island Sweat公司的CEO。她将跟我们分享将目标坚持到底的秘诀。一句话：从长远利益出发。 1. Cook More 1. 多做饭 Cooking more meals at home is a top New Year's resolution, but it's daunting if you're not comfortable in the kitchen. "To start, pick one meal that would be easy for you to do," Martin said. Think eggs for breakfast or chicken for dinner. "The key here is to not overwhelm yourself by trying to cook each meal right away. Pick one easy meal first, master it and then add another." 今年要多在家做饭，这是很多人第一选择的新年目标。不过，假如你本来就厨艺不精，那这个目标对你来说着实艰巨。Martin告诉我们：“刚开始的时候，你可以选择一个简单的食谱。” 比如用鸡蛋做早饭、或是用鸡肉做晚餐。“关键是，不要在一开始就妄想着能顿顿美味，先选一个简单的食谱、掌握它，然后再逐渐进阶。 |
