Solar Panels And The Negative Sides

みなさんは「手につかない」と言う表現を知っていますか？「〜が手につかない」と言う表現は気持ちが落ち着かず、集中できないという時に使います。
先週とてもショックな事件がありました。長く日本の総理大臣を務めた安倍さんが銃で撃たれて亡くなりました。私はこのニュースを聞いた時、とてもびっくりして信じられませんでした。テレビを見ていると、たくさんの人がこの事件にショックを受けていて、特に安倍さんと一緒に仕事をしていた人は「安倍さんが亡くなったことがショックで仕事が手につかない」と言っている人が多いようです。
「うれしくて仕事が手につかない」と言うこともできます。これは何かうれしいことがあって、興奮して仕事に集中できないという意味です。
他にも、試合の結果が気になって勉強が手につかない、うれしくて何も手につかないなど、この表現は日常会話でよく使います。
みなさんは、最近仕事が手につかなくなるほどうれしい出来事はありましたか？よかったら私のレッスンに来て教えて下さい。

総理大臣：そうりだいじん　PM
事件：じけん　case, incident

5 Steps to Business Habit Stacking

STEP 1
Identify 1-3 key habits you want to focus on developing that will have the biggest positive impact on your business. These should be habits that are relatively easy to implement but provide high value such as daily planning, delegating tasks or networking. Focus on habits that are specific, measurable actions you can take each day to make progress towards your goals.

STEP 2
Choose an existing daily habit you already have as an anchor. This could be making your bed, taking your vitamins or checking email. The anchor habit should be something quick and easy you already do daily. Picking an anchor you already do each morning or evening will help cue the new habits without adding extra effort.

STEP 3
Immediately follow your anchor habit with one of the key habits you identified. For example, if your anchor is checking email in the morning, follow it with taking 10 minutes to plan your day. Doing the new habit right after the anchor will help the cues become associated over time.

STEP 4
Repeat the key habit daily, right after your anchor habit, until it becomes a routine. It may take 21-30 days for a new habit to stick so be patient and consistent. Don't try to build multiple habits at once. Staying focused on one habit at a time will help it to form more successfully without overload.

STEP 5
Once the first key habit is a routine, add the second by stacking it after your anchor and initial habit. For example, your routine is now check email > plan your day > delegate one task. Continue stacking until all your key habits are locked in. Stacking new habits onto existing routines helps you develop multiple productive habits efficiently.

5 Steps to Business Habit Stacking

People who spend a lot of time sitting down might reduce their health risks by drinking coffee, a new study suggests.

Researchers from China wanted to look at the health effects of coffee drinking and time spent sitting.

They looked at health data for nearly 11,000 people in the US and followed them for up to 13 years.

During the period of the study, 945 people died, including 284 from heart disease.

The research team found that people who sat for over eight hours a day were almost 50% more likely to die from all causes, and nearly 80% more likely to die from heart disease.

That's compared to people who sat for fewer than four hours per day.

Sitting for a long time has been linked to increased risks of diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity and more.

The researchers also found that people who drank the most coffee — three or more cups per day — reduced their risk of death from all causes by over 30% compared to those who drank no coffee. And they were more than 50% less likely to die from heart disease.

And drinking coffee even seemed to protect people from the health risks of sitting down: coffee drinkers could sit for more than six hours a day and still have about the same risk of death as non-coffee drinkers who sat for less than six hours.

However, the researchers said they didn't look at the effects of different types of coffee on our health, so they couldn't be sure which type was best.

They wrote that more research would be needed on this "miracle" drink.
