Once you have started using a 3D interior design software, you need to ask yourself a few basic questions. Do you want to remodel an existing living room, or are you designing a living room for a house that is yet to be constructed? In each case, the challenges and opportunities will be different.

The next thing you need to do is to come up with a floor plan. To do this, enter the measurements of the floor and walls of your living room into the program, which becomes the basic blueprint for your creative living room design. With some information about electrical points, lighting sources, doors and windows entered, the workable space can be clearly defined.

Simply select the furniture type and specify its measurements by selecting the required size option. The image will increase or decrease and show you how much space it will occupy in your living room. There is no end of how many versions you can create at this stage since there is no need to physically move your couch or TV set. Within minutes, you can see your revamped (翻新的) living room taking shape right before your eyes.

In the fourth step, add a personal creative touch. You can experiment with different types of customization (定制) to achieve the overall look you want. For example, you can try multiple colors for the walls and different types of flooring and lighting.

A. Remodel or construct?

B. All of this happens just by moving your mouse.

C. Now, you can experiment with different layouts.

D. A lot of 3D software comes with ready-made models for floor plans.

E. You should also input all the fixed or immovable parts of the living room.

F. It is entirely up to you as to how you want to visualize your perfect living room.

G. A creative designed living room can be something you impress your guests with.

It's important to know two different types of memory: long-term and working memory. Long-term memories are a broad category of memories that involve knowledge and experiences stored in the brain for extended periods. On the other hand, thoughts in working memory, whose certain characteristics are likely to explain why we forget, flash through the mind for only seconds at a time.

First, working memory has very limited capacity. People can hold only about four to seven "chunks" of information — such as letters or phrases — in their working memory at a time. Rather than being aware of all of these "chunks" simultaneously, the brain bounces around from one idea to another, making it more likely that one gets neglected. Second, the brain quickly erases unimportant things from working memory to make room for new information. So unless those short-term memories are transferred into long-term memories, they' re soon gone from conscious thought.

Because the brain isn't actually capable of multitasking, it has to juggle different thoughts as our working memory rushes around to different ideas, which requires conscious effort and attention. If attention becomes focused on only one of those thoughts or is diverted somewhere new, the brain loses track of the earlier thoughts. And alcohol and aging may worsen the case.

To stop forgetting things, it's advised against multitasking. Moreover, recreating the context can help, which means going back into the room you were before. Those context clues might give the brain the extra boost it needs to reach back a few seconds in working memory and regain the thought. The scientific community has also identified several supplementary techniques designed to alleviate forgetfulness and enhance overall memory retrieval capabilities.

Studies have found that top athletes— professional, college and Olympic— often face a range of short-term and long-term mental health issues, including exhaustion, eating disorders, anxiety and depression. A study by researchers at the University of Toronto found that 41.4 percent of Canadian national team athletes who were training for the 2020 Olympics had depression, anxiety, an eating disorder or more than one of these conditions when surveyed in 2019; in another survey of Olympic and Paralympic athletes in 2018 and 2019,24 percent reported psychological stress after the Games. A few athletes facing retirement tend to have more serious psychological problems, due to the loss of their goals and identity.

Emotions are also intensified by the nature of the event itself. The Olympics is a massive cultural show — a whirlwind of global public attention, financial investment and extensive media coverage. New international celebrities are created, and some contenders fall from grace during various accusations or controversies. Athletes bear the pressure of representing their country, and winning medals, in front of a worldwide audience. But then "all of that buzz and intensity around being an Olympian falls off very quickly," Cogan, a sports psychologist says. Painful decisions can follow: Do I want to keep competing? Should I pursue a completely different direction or occupation? Such questions can be even more anxiety-causing if athletes have injuries and need surgery or recovery, Cogan says.

In fact, failure gives us an opportunity to learn, adapt and grow. It should be expected on the way to achieving life goals and used as a feedback mechanism (机制) to get it right next time, or the time after.

I recently saw a woman who had to give up studying for her university degree. She had bipolar disorder (躁郁症) and was unable to cope with the pressure of studying. She was studying to be a teacher and had hoped to find a teaching job. However, she failed her exams and job interviews, and overall felt like she was failing to achieve anything.

One of the things she enjoyed doing was singing in a band. So in order to earn a bit of money, she began giving singing lessons to children in her community. Fast forward 18 months and she now has her own growing business of teaching singing full-time. She hasn't achieved this goal in the way she imagined, and she wouldn't have embarked on this path without the setbacks she encountered.

What was it about this woman that made her succeed? Yes, failure had a big part to play, but the ability to bounce back and be flexible was an important factor.

An important part of developing flexibility is having a supportive network. Having relationships with people who can support us helps us go through tough times.

Our attitudes toward ourselves are also crucially important, including a sense that we are in control of our actions, have confidence in what we do, realize our strengths and set ourselves achievable and realistic goals. This is all necessary to flexibility.

The secret to flexibility lies in accepting that there are things in life we cannot change. Rather than thinking of ourselves as victims, we need to realize we have the ability to change the way we think, behave and, ultimately, feel. Life may throw manure (粪肥) at us, but we can grow roses with it.

It was a cold November night. The air was fresh, and the autumn leaves made a pattern of red and yellow on the streets. I was walking home from school, my mind lost in thoughts of upcoming exams, when I noticed an elderly man struggling with a heavy box at the corner of the street. He was out of breath, his face flushed (红) from the effort, and it was clear he needed help.

I approached him, my heart filled with sympathy. "Sir, do you need some assistance?" I asked, trying to sound as polite as possible. The man looked up, his eyes meeting mine with a mix of relief and gratitude.

"Could you please help me carry this box to my apartment? It's just around the corner," he replied, his voice shaky but warm. I nodded and, together, we lifted the box and began our slow journey to his home.

As we walked, I learned that his name was Mr. Chen, and he had recently moved into the neighborhood. His children lived far away, and he was trying to settle into his new home alone. The box contained his most treasured belongings, books and photographs that held memories of a lifetime.

Our path was not easy. The box was heavy, and the streets were wet from rain. We slipped once or twice, but we managed to keep our footing and our spirits high. Mr. Chen told me stories of his youth, and I shared my dreams for the future. It was a strange connection, formed in the struggle of a single moment.

Finally, we reached his apartment building, and I helped him carry the box up the stairs. He insisted that I come in for a cup of tea as a thank-you. Over hot drinks, I told him that all of my family members are literature enthusiasts. My uncle works at a publishing house. He said he loves writing poetry. Then we exchanged contact information with each other.
