Crystal and her students conducted a

study

of whether animals are capable of episodic memory. First,

they trained 13 rats to memorize 12 odours(

1 to 12, each scented with a different odour. When the rat identified the odour in a particular stop on the

number of people suffering from Alzheimer’s will increase from 5.8 million today to 14 million by 2050 as

How

do

you

work

smarter

and

keep

work

-

related

pressures

from

getting

to

you?

A

number

of

possibilities exist.

1. Take a real vacation. Completely being away from work is one of the best ways to

recharge your

batteries.

Any kind of change of scene will help. Taking a class, helping an elderly relative — anything

that lets you get off the boring work will help you feel like yourself again.

24

.

2. Work out, no matter what. Giving yourself a pass from working out just because you have a busy

day is a terrible idea.

25

. Exercise is a great help for stress. Burnouts become less common when

you put yourself first for at least a little while each day.

3.

26

.

Managers

tend

to

reward

their

workers

for

their

efforts,

even

if

they

are

far

from

perfect. You should do the same for yourself and reward yourself from time to time, too. A movie, a gift for

yourself — both add up to helping you feel good about yourself.

4.

Create.

Learning

how

to

create

in

business

or

anything

else

can

be

a

tremendous

contributor

to

feeling in control. Identify a creative attempt to apply yourself to and commit yourself to it.

27

.

5.

Learn

to

not

be

hard

on

yourself.

Guilt

is

one

of

the

most

unproductive

emotions

that

one

can

experience. If you have not been working as well as you would like, being severely

self

-

critical will not

help you improve.

28

. Determining to never be addicted to guilt or self

-

criticism can immediately

help you feel better about life and work.

A. Value the rewards of managers

B. You will quickly begin to feel better

C. If you were the boss, you would reward yourself

D. Then, you can go back to working as hard as ever

E. Therefore, getting rid of such an idea proves important

F. Rather, it will only make you feel as if you will never do better

G. You will simply find yourself giving up your workouts all the time
