　　9. Learn Something New
　　学习新东西

　　There's nothing more esteem-building than getting an additional qualification under your belt. Your career options widen, you meet new people and you exercise your brain. Check out local community colleges, which offer a range of inexpensive courses.

　　没有比充分掌握一门技能更能建立自尊了。你拓宽了职业选择，你见到了一群新人，你锻炼了大脑。到当地社区大学看一看那里有没有便宜的课程可以学习。

　　10. Help Others
　　帮助别人

　　Every day, we're hearing about a new catastrophe in some corner of the globe, so it's no surprise that "volunteering vacations" are booming worldwide. But you don't have to head to a far-flunch locate (or spend money) to make the world better -- offering your time, or if that's in short supply, simply donating furniture, clothes and other household items can help someone in need (and make you feel great).

　　每天，我们耳边总传来地球的某个角落又发生了一场大灾难，因此，世界各地都有义工假期也就不足为奇了。但你不必要到那个偏远山区（或出钱）才能让世界变得更好--你只要奉献你的时间就好了，或者如果出现物资缺乏，捐出家具、衣物和其它一些家居用品就可以了。这些能帮到在困境中的人们（也能让你感觉很棒）。

　　11. Land a New Job
　　找一份新工作

　　Whether you're itching to switch careers or have recently lost your job, there are plenty of reasons these days to stay current (read: keep your resume updated and don't stop proving you bring something to the table).

　　不管你是期盼转行或是最近失业了，这些天你都有必要保持当前状态（保持更新简历，继续提升技能）。

　　12. See the World (or Even the State!)
　　看看世界（或仅仅是我们国家）

　　Get a new perspective on things — literally and figuratively — by putting yourself into a new environment. And it doesn't mean hopping on a plane -- there are plenty of fresh locales within driving distance from where you live.

　　把自己放到一个崭新的环境中，以新的视觉看待事物--从表面的和深层的两个角度。它不意味着你要匆忙地跳上飞机--其实，从家里到出发点，沿途可以看很多美好的景色。

　　13. Find Your Zen
　　找到信仰

　　If even thinking about all these changes starts getting you stressed out, make a vow this year to chill out.
　　
　　如果连想一想这些改变都会让你开始紧张，那么今年，许下誓言：凡事冷静。
