| 2003年04月04日(金) | リッチになるには？？ |
あなたはリッチになれるか？というテストをしてみたら、豊かな暮らしが待っている、という結果だったので、まゆつばとしても、ちょっと嬉しかったです。リッチになるためには、靴を疎かにしないように、というのは、よく言われることですね。人に足元を見られても大丈夫なように。私は結構靴をぼろぼろにしてしまう方ですが。気をつけよう。
Affluence Awaits You
No doubt success and prosperity will be part of your future. Don't be surprised if people who know you think your good fortune is all luck. They're right in a way, but what they don't realize is that you're the one working hard to create your own luck. How do you do it? You feel good about yourself and believe in your abilities, so you're not afraid to go after what you want. You have also mastered the art of putting yourself in the right places at the right time, and taking advantage of all opportunities -- self-generated and not. Your motto: Life is what you make it of it. And if it's a rich life you want, that's what you shall receive -- or rather, make for yourself!
Confidence: 5 Ways to Be More Confident Now
by Mary Mitchell
We all wish we could be more confident. In the long term, that means believing in ourselves and our choices, and enjoying our accomplishments and relationships. Yet in the short term, it would be nice to get a little confidence boost every day to goose that long-term effort. Try these strategies and start feeling better today.
Move your body. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Park farther away and walk the distance. Ride a bike and work up a sweat. Exercise clears the brain and the lungs. It increases strength and endurance, and it defuses anger and frustration. You'll feel energized,and let's face it, energy is attractive.
Nothing enhances your overall appearance like rosy cheeks and a lively step. So get out of chair and get the creative juices flowing.
体を動かす事：エレベーターを使わずに階段を登ること。運動は頭脳や肺臓を清浄にする。
Take a look at what you're wearing. It's what others see first. Everything you put on is a reflection of your taste, aesthetic sense and style. If your attire is inappropriate, colleagues are apt to question your judgment and your ability as a significant player.
When you're considering how to dress, ask yourself: How do I want to be perceived? Who are the people I want to impress? We're not talking fashion statements or fancy clothing; we're talking about what's effective in a given environment.
どんな風に装うかと考える時には、自問すること。どんな風に認められたいか、
感じられたいか理解されたいか。自分が認められたい相手は誰か。単にファッションや服装についてではなく、一定の与えられた環境の中でどうすることが効果的かということを問題にしているのだ。
ふうん。なるほどねえ。私は本当に漠然と暮らしてきた。自分のファッションに関するこだわりというのもよくわかっていないし。裸でなければいいだろと思っている、ってほどではないけれど。
And remember these four key factors:
Fit. Whether you use a tailor or not, make sure all your clothes fit well.
Cleanliness. Dry cleaning and machine washing can damage clothes. Make sure your outfits are clean without pulls, stray threads or chipped buttons.
Shoes. Everybody notices shoes, mostly because we get nervous and end up looking down. Keep shoes well soled, shined and in good repair.
Smile. A clean, bright smile goes a long way to making us feel better about ourselves.
色々な心配事などに気を取られてぼっとしてしまうこともあるけれど、とにかく落ち着いて、自分の手元足元が留守にならないようにこなしていきたいです。
A Personality Checklist
Just what are you made of?
The tridosha theory can define various aspects of an individual’s physical appearance and personality. We offer below the characteristics noticeable in people with predominance of one of the humours or doshas:
Attributes Vatha Pittha Kapha
Physical frame Thin Moderate Bulky
Body weight Low Moderate Obese
Skin Dry, rough, brown, black Soft, oily, warm, fair, reddish, yellowish Thick, oily, pale white
Hair Black, dry Soft, oily Thick, oily
Teeth Protruded, big and crooked Moderate in size. Gums soft Strong, white
Eyes Small, black, sunken Penetrating, yellowish Big, attractive, blue, thick eyelashes
Appetite Variable, scanty Good, excessive to unbearable Slow and steady
Thirst Variable Excessive Scanty
Physical Activity Very active Moderate Lethargic
Mind Restless, active Aggressive, intelligent Calm, slow
Emotional temperament Fearful, insecure, unpredictable Aggressive, irritable, jealous Calm, greedy, attached
Faith Changeable Fanatic Steady
Memory Recent good, remote poor Sharp Slow but prolonged
Dreams Of fearful flying, running, jumping Of anger, violence, war Of water, ocean, swimming

Speech Fast Sharp and cutting Slow and monotonous
Financial Status Poor, spends money on trifles Moderate, spends on luxuries Rich, money saver, spends on food
Pulse Thready, feeble, moves like a snake Moderate, jumping like a frog Full slow, moves like a swan.
These observations help us to broadly categorise any individual’s constitution. But there are many, many shades in between these broad divisions, depending on the exact balance of the tridoshas in the individual.
scanty adj.僅かな、乏しい、不十分な、不足する、狭い、小さな、窮屈な
an obese child 肥満児
lethargic adj.昏睡状態の、眠気を催す、眠い、鈍感な、不活発な、無感動な
A Balancing Act
Patient-specific in Ayurveda
You and your friend can report at an ayurvedic physician clinic with a headache. Each will come out with a different prescription. This is because your constitution (the way vatha, pitha and kapha are balanced) is different from your friend. Ayurveda states that because of the differing constitutions, the cause and corrective measures should be different for different individuals.
あなたが友達と一緒に二人とも頭痛のためにアユルヴェーダ療法の医者を訪れたとする。二人は違った処方箋を携えて出てくる事になるだろう。これは、あなたの構造、気のバランスがどのようになっているか、といったことが、あなたの友人と
異なっているからなのだ。
要するに、痩せ型の人と肥満型の人とでは、同じ頭痛でも、違った治療になると。

If you have a feel for social responsibility, then it is time to do something about it.
People are sympathetic to your career needs. An agreement could fall easily into place.... Positive deeds bring you the benefits and advantages that you desire.... Network. Exchange ideas. Enjoy social as well as business meetings.
Become aware of the power of social skills.... Work with appropriate professionals.... Get more involved with music, poetry and photography. The more that you trust your intuition, the easier your life becomes.... You have the opportunity to deepen your roots and thus rise far in life.
私はもっと自信を持って前向きになればいいのね。精神的に左右のぶれが激しいと言われたことがある。自分ではどういうことかよくわからなかったけれど、前向きじゃない時があるので厄介なんだ。違った？
ベルギーの絵画を検索していたら、猛烈にまた行きたくなってしまった。絶対行くぞ。ルーベンスの絵をみたい。
行こうと思ったら絶対行ける。そのくらいのお金は本気になれば私にだって稼げるわ。旅行の費用という目的を持って働けばいいのだ。些細なことに拘ってパートに
しり込みすることなんてない。元気といえば元気だなあわたしって。でももう少し
気長に穏やかに足が地に付いた暮らしを。って、足を見ると、床から浮いてはいないがな。４月からウェブ上で家計簿を始めました。
また冷静になって考えてみると、子供をもう一人生み育てるのは無理かな、と思ったりする。でも望もうと諦めようと授かりものだから、天の神様の言うとおり。
天は私のことをお見通しだから、いいようにはからってくださるのだ。作ろうと
頑張ってできるというものでもないみたいだし。
Energy and confidence are high, making this a super day to deal with others. This is a good time to lead the way on a project, for your originality is unusually heightened. Both your position and theirs will be clear. If you should get a group together, everyone will feel a benefit. It is also a great time to expand your horizons, learn new things, and meet new people. You may find yourself in a class as a student or, perhaps the teacher. You could come up with new solutions or inventions this afternoon that will make everyone's job easier. Teaching, learning, communicating and social contact has a way of outlining new directions in your life. There is much activity and involvement with these kinds of issues. Care must be given to the practical use of money.
