1. Be spontaneous
Seize opportunities to do something interesting. For example; when a friend invites you for a drink or to the movies—don’t make excuses. Simply, say yes and go. Don’t turn down invitations to socialize when you know you have nothing better to do.
2. Visit a new place
It’s a shame to not have gone anywhere else besides your little hometown; or seen anything else outside of your community. C’mon, there is so much to see. Drive, get on a bus or train and go see the world!
3. Do the unusual
Do something you have always wanted to do but never made time for. Go hiking, camping, kayaking, run the marathon, go to the museum, attend a concert, visit an old friend or do some volunteer work.
4. Plan a “spice up my life day” and commit to it
Mark the date on your calendar for a special vacation, trip or activity. Submit your official vacation day leave request and invite your friends along. Plan for your special day and get ready to have fun. The more the merrier!
5. “Tune up” you attitude
Give up the “I don’t do this and I don’t do that” attitude. Be willing to participate in new activities and embrace new things. Be open-minded, and have fun. You will be pleasantly surprised at what the right attitude can do for you!
6. Be fully present and in the moment
What’s the point of going on vacation and then spending your vacation time thinking about work, bills and other stressful issues? You can’t really spice up your life if you are physically present and mentally absent. To enjoy yourself, be fully engaged in the moment— body, soul and spirit.
7. Leave your hang-ups at home
When spending time with your friends…don’t let your pessimist outlook on life ruin the day. Remember that your friends are there to enrich your life and not to baby sit you. So, leave you high maintenance behavior at home, be a joy to others and have fun!
8. Change your environment
Introduce inspiring elements into your surroundings. Change your furniture, paint your walls a different color, get some potted house plants, a fish tank or even a pet.
9. Make new friends or foster existing relationships
Technology has made it possible to connect with people faster and easily. Make friends with people from different cultures and learn something new. Contact a long lost friend and make plans to meet and catch up. Better yet, pay a surprise visit to a relative you haven’t seen in a while.
10. Be creative
Opportunities present themselves in the most unlikely ways. Ask yourself, “What can I do right now, this week, this weekend…to spice up my life?” Think outside the box.

1.自然率真!
捕捉机会做有趣的事情.例如,当朋友邀请你去喝酒或看电影时,不要找借口推辞.当没有更好的事情可干时,不要拒绝社交邀请.
2.去陌生的地方旅行
如果你从未没走出过自己生活的小镇或眼光从未超出过自己的小圈子,那真是非常可惜.来吧,世界上太多东西值得观赏.让我们爬上公交车,坐上火车或自己开车去看世界!
3.做不同寻常的事情
做一些你一直想做而从未找出时间做的事情.去徒步旅行,去野营,去划皮艇,跑马拉松,去参观博物馆,听音乐会,拜访老朋友或者去做志愿者.
4.制订情趣生活计划并认真执行
在台历上为特别的度假,旅行或活动做好专门的标记.提交休假申请并叫上你的朋友.好好计划这些特殊日子,好好开心一下.多多益善!
5.调整态度
要改变"我不做这个不做那个"的态度.现在开始,要乐于参加新活动,接受新事物.打开心扉,开心享乐.你会惊奇地发现正确的态度会给你带来什么.
6.关键时刻全情投入
设想一下,假如我们出去度假,却想着工作,帐单和其它压力重重的事情,那是什么情形呢?如果你身在曹营心在汉(心不在焉)地度假,你就不能真正享受你的生活.为好好享受生活,你需要全情投入-从身体到心灵到精神的全方位投入.
7.把烦恼留在家里
当你与朋友共处时,不要因自己悲观的人生观破坏大家(的兴致).记住一条,朋友不是我们的临时保姆,他们是来丰富我们的生活.因此,把你的生活维持性行为(没精打彩与抱怨)留在家里,做别人的开心果,好好开心一下!
8.改变环境
把激动人心的元素带进你的生活环境中.改变你的家具,把墙刷成不同的色彩,摆上几盆室内盆栽,弄一个鱼缸,甚至可以考虑养个宠物.
9.结交新朋友,或增进老关系
科技进步使得人与人间的联系变得更为迅速而便捷.与来自不同文化背景的人交朋友,学习新事物.寻找长时间失去联系的朋友,计划见面与恢复关系.更好的是,突然造访一下有段时间未曾见面了的亲戚.
10.具备创造性
机会常常以看似最不可能的方式出现.问问自己:"现在我能做点什么让生活丰富起来呢?这个礼拜,这个周末"?要打破常规地想一下这个问题.
