Today, most people are busy and have no time to enjoy life. Actually, your life can be enjoyable if you take a little stop and check your routine tasks(日常工作). Then you will find it's actually easy to make some good changes in life .

For example, waking up early gives you enough time to exercise, have your breakfast peacefully, read your book, and then get on with the rest of your day. You can also use morning time to plan the day. While planning the day, you can begin by writing down the tasks(任务) you need to finish in a day, and then decide which tasks are important enough for you to finish first .

Well, taking a bus, a subway or a train doesn't seem a good way to save time. However, by taking these, you' ll get the time to read books, listen to music and so on. As a result, you'll save time .

If you love playing with your mobile phone, you waste so much time doing nothing helpful. You need to spend your time on something meaningful, like painting something, or reading a great book. Also Internet surfing(上网), these days, is one of the top time-wasting activities around. So cutting down the time you spend on the Internet is one way to save time for yourself.

When you don't have enough time to look after yourself, you will probably have bad health. A busy lifestyle should be the reason for you to treat yourself with great care and make more time for yourself.

Did ancient Chinese people have weekends or public holidays? The weekly calendar (日历) was invented in the West. In ancient China, there were no such things as weekends. But people did take days off in the past.

For example, during the Han Dynasty, officials (官员) took one day off every five days. When it came to Tang Dynasty, officials had to work for ten days before they could rest for one day. But this was still reasonable, because officials at the time shared their work together. They also enjoyed public holidays for Chinese New Year and the inter solstice (冬至), with both holidays lasting for seven days.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, officials had to work all year long, except for public holidays, including a full month at the end of the year to celebrate Spring Festival. They also took seven days off on the king’s birthday. On the Mid-Autumn and Dragon Boat festivals, they could rest for one day as well.

As people like businessmen and farmers, they usually worked most of the year. But even the poor workers would take a few days off during Spring Festival. There were also days on which people of all walks of life offered food to the spirits. For example, farmers would give offerings to tudigong twice a year. People usually took one day off for this.
