There"s a huge power in knowing how to make adjustments in life. In fact, it"s possible to turn failure into success by making the right adjustments. The trick is in knowing where the adjustment is needed and how much.
We call people who have the ability to make the best life adjustments happy. And on the other hand we call people who refuse or neglect to make adjustments sad, frustrated or confused.
Whatever your stage in life, age or financial level, everyone will face what I call the 3 C"s. The 3 C"s are changes, challenges and choices. The person who handles the 3 C"s the best we call happy and well adjusted.
One obstacle many people trip over is assuming money will help them make the best life adjustments. Wrong! It may help in some ways, but even money won"t help unless you have the knowledge and put in the effort. For instance, dysfunctional (不正常的) wealthy people who find it hard to deal with the challenges, changes and choices of life are not that hard to find.
So, what"s one of the key factors of people who fail to live up to their potential? They fail to make life adjustments when faced with changes, challenges or choices.
Here are 3 simple but powerful tips to help you make effective life adjustments when faced with the 3 C"s or changes, challenges and choices.
Learn To Think With Your Eyes And Ears
When you learn how to think with your eyes we call that observation and when you learn how to think with your ears we call that hearing. Most people see but few people know how to observe. The difference between seeing and observing is like the difference between reading and studying.
The same goes with listening. It only requires ears to hear, but it often takes awareness and thought to listen. One factor in helping you to listen better is to hear not only what people say but what they don"t say. Reading body language and voice inflection can help you listen between the lines. All these play an effective role in helping you to think with your eyes and ears.
Learn To Go With The Flow
The people who learn to make the best life adjustments cultivate the habit of going with the flow. For example, they refuse to sweat the small stuff, they remain flexible to life changes. The best way to do that is to trust your instincts(直觉). The more you do that the more they will work for you.
Worry tends to ruin your God-given instincts. Notice people who can go with the flow and you"ll find a person with sharp instincts.
Be Prepared For Changes, Challenges And Choices
If you can keep an attitude of preparation you"ll have the best chance of making effective life adjustments. What kind? The kind that can see you through problems, setbacks and challenges.
As the saying goes, “If you stay ready, you don"t have to get ready.” That"s the best advice for anyone who wants to make the best life adjustments and win!

Zebras have their own bug repellent(驱虫剂)?
Eww bugs! They are so annoying! We humans are lucky that we can apply repellents to avoid nasty bites. But what’s an animal to do? They have no choice but to spend their days shooing them off with their tails, unless, of course, they are zebras, who apparently have their own automatic repellent--- their striped skin!
Scientists had originally thought that the reason why the animal had developed the black and white lines was to help protect itself from predators in the African savannah, because the stripes make it difficult to single out one zebra that is traveling with a herd.While that may be true, the theory has never been tested or proven. Now the experts have another---that the stripes have evolved to repel the annoying horse flies that not only feed off their blood, but also, transmit dangerous germs into the bodies of these innocent animals.
The study was performed by a team of Swedish scientists. One of the clues that got them thinking along these lines was the fact that darker horses got bitten more often than light-colored or white ones.
The fact that zebras are born black and only develop strips as they grow older made the scientists theorize that the stripes may be something the animals have developed to make themselves less attractive to flies.
To test if this may be the case, they painted some boards at a horse-infested horse farm in Budapest with patterns of black and white stripes of varying widths and applied a layer of glue on them. What they noticed was that the places where the black and white stripes were at their narrowest (similar to what zebras have) attracted the fewest flies. They achieved similar results when they painted horses with black and white zebra-like stripes.
While the research are not sure why this may be the case, they believe it may be something to do with the way insects operate---horseflies are attracted to horizontally polarized light(偏振光); since white does not reflect it, white horses are luckier than black ones. But zebras seem to be the luckiest of all. When the researchers measured the polarized light reflected from real zebra skins, they found that it matched light patterns that were the least attractive to horseflies.
While this theory does make logical sense, nobody is 100 percent sure that it is really true, given that it has never been tested on a real zebra. If it is true, it does raise the question of why a horse, a close relative of the zebra has failed to develop stripes. The researchers believe that this could be because there are more horseflies in Africa, where zebras reside, then anywhere else in the world.
