你不一定非做不可的事情

原文来自: Happiness Project,由好朋友七巧仔那里copy过来的:

Don’t confuse what you must do with what you choose to do. For example:

You don’t have to carry around a bottle of water.
You don’t have to finish a magazine before you throw it away.
You don’t have to dress to express your individuality.
You don’t have to drink wine with dinner.
You don’t have to carry a wallet.
You don’t have to watch reality TV.
You don’t have to take a shower every day.
You don’t have to check your email every minute.
You don’t have to get a manicure.
You don’t have to answer your phone.
You don’t have to use hair conditioner.
You don’t have to send out holiday cards.
You don’t have to read or watch crime reports.
You don’t have to keep up with sports news or celebrity gossip.
You don’t have to have house plants.
You don’t have to wear uncomfortable shoes.

You do have to keep some cash around at all times.
You do have to call when you’re going to be late.
You do have to remember the birthdays of your immediate family.
You do have to back up your computer files.
You do have to exercise regularly.
You do have to keep a cache of toilet paper in the house.
You do have to keep your phone charged.
You do have to keep a spare key.

你不一定非做不可的事情:
* 你不需要到哪都戴一瓶水。
* 杂志不需要看完才能扔。
* 不需要用穿着来显示你的个性。
* 不需要每顿饭都喝酒。
* 不需要非得用钱包。
* 不需要非看实况转播。
* 不需要每天都洗澡。
* 不需要每分钟都查收电子邮件。
* 不需要每个电话都回。
* 不需要非用发胶。
* 不需要每年都送贺年片。
* 不需要每天收看各种八卦。
* 不需要非在屋子里种植物。
* 不需要非穿不舒服的鞋子。

有些事你还是做的好:

* 兜里装点零钱。
* 迟到前电话通知别人一下。
* 记住亲人的生日。
* 备份电脑文件。
* 按时锻炼。
* 卫生间准备备用手纸。
* 手机充好电。
* 准备好备用钥匙。
