Try a new sport at 40洪兰英At the age of forty, it is precisely the time to try new sports, not to become a fitness blogger, but to find the lightness hidden in the body that is suppressed by daily trivialities. Yoga is such a low-key but super fashionable choice. It's not like high-intensity interval training that leaves you out of breath, or running that makes you struggle with your knees in protest. It is more like a glass of warm water with lemon, gently seeping into your life and slowly melting away those stiff corners.
Buy a health insurance for your parents at the age of 40洪兰英When you enter the 40-year-old stage of life, it seems as if time suddenly pressed the fast-forward button, and realities that once seemed far away begin to come quietly. Think about it, when you were young, you always felt that your parents were the backbone of the family, and they could always lend a hand when you needed them. But now, you yourself have become the backbone of the family, and what about them? Your hair is getting gray, your steps are no longer so brisk, and the occasional ailment can make your heart tense. At this time, buying a health insurance for my parents became a realistic and warm thing. It’s not just a financial decision, it’s an emotional connection that allows you to give back in a mature way the unconditional support they gave you all those years.
40-year-old learns to refuse invalid gatherings洪兰英Learning to refuse invalid gatherings is not a sign of indifference, but a way to protect your energy wisely and make your life more calm and trendy. Think about it, after you turn forty, you have accumulated enough experience to know which social interactions can light up your heart and which ones are just background noise that consumes time. Prioritize meaningful social interactions, just like upgrading your social app, retaining only those high-quality connections, so that every time you go out feels like a well-planned adventure, rather than a routine and exhausting routine.
Start walking for an hour a week at the age of 40洪兰英Just one hour of walking a week starting in your forties can make all the difference.

It is so down-to-earth and can be integrated into your daily life as naturally as drinking a cup of coffee, but it can bring about unexpected changes.
The "fatty liver" on the 40-year-old physical examination report became the most expensive alarm clock in my life洪兰英On the third day after his 40th birthday, the author's physical examination revealed moderate fatty liver disease, and he was sentenced to probation. After being shocked, he looked back on fifteen years of drinking and drinking, staying up late and partying, and laughed at himself as a garbage dump. I immediately emptied the wine cabinet, forced myself to run, and changed my diet. It was extremely painful at first: I retched while running, salads felt like chewing slippers, socializing became nothing, and I couldn’t sleep at night after quitting drinking. Three months later, miracles appeared: weight loss, youthful appearance, and fatty liver reversal to normal. The doctor marveled that the author has transformed from a greasy middle-aged man into a fitness fanatic, and can do everything like squats and bench presses. Now I start running ten kilometers at 5:50, preaching "don't wait for the report to slap me in the face", regard turning forty as a system restart, and drive a sports car for the rest of my life, heading towards eternal normalcy.
Only when I was 40 did I dare to wear fluorescent green and go out, and then I realized that the world didn’t revolve around me at all.洪兰英Before the author turned 40, his wardrobe was filled with safe colors such as black and gray camel. He lived his life as a gray background in the eyes of passers-by, and regarded being ignored as protection. On her 40th birthday, she impulsively bought a fluorescent green sweatshirt. When she tried it on, she hesitated for 40 minutes before finally wearing it and going out. The girl's smile and the cashier's praise made her feel the joy of being watched for the first time. Fluorescent green is like a flare, igniting her desire for color. After that, she retaliated by buying orange, Barbie pink and other bright colors, and her wardrobe changed from a tomb to a tropical rainforest. She understood that in the past, she was afraid of social death, but in fact she was not even qualified to be noticed. At the age of forty, she hung up all her black and gray coats, saying they were "suitable for people who want to be invisible." To please herself, she starts by wearing colors she dare not wear. The world is restarted by her light, and she wants to paint the rest of her life with bright colors.
When I was 40 years old, I transferred 100,000 yuan to my parents for the first time. At that moment, I understood what repayment means.洪兰英I transferred 100,000 yuan to my parents. I thought it was a way to repay the money, but I felt sorry for the money but was full of pride. Unexpectedly, they became financial masters in an instant: saving time, buying insurance, investing in funds, buying gold, and even bought Hermès silk scarves with 5,000 pocket money. In the circle of friends, my mother still shows off in Versailles. I laughed angrily and discovered that feedback is not a one-way output, but a tug-of-war that is being ripped off by "parents of giant babies". It turns out that my parents have become wiser as they get older, and they have upgraded their role from protecting the calf to investing in me. Being willing to be cheated once is the true reward. I actually want to transfer another 100,000 to see what they do next time.
After completely clearing my "circle of friends", I became a VIP at the age of 40洪兰英On my 40th birthday, I deleted more than 900 friends on WeChat, leaving less than 50 of them. My address book is as clean as a high-end apartment. First, eliminate the energy vampires. They always borrow money in the middle of the night or invite people to attend sharing sessions, which drains their mood; then expel the competition team, where the circle of friends is filled with miserable people, and they are forced to participate in brutal competitions; the most difficult ones are the course sellers, who post transfers through private messages to promote them, and are publicly humiliated when they leave the group. After deleting it, WeChat was as quiet as a clean window, and the fragmented time was put together into a big cake, which was used for fitness, language learning, and watching TV dramas. Peace of mind, no more conditioned anxiety. Only keep people who can amuse you, teach you, and answer the phone when you really need it. Deleting people is not cold-blooded, but opening a VIP channel. Seats for the second half of life are limited, so those who deserve it can take their seats. WeChat becomes a private island, the wind of freedom blows, and the ticket is courage.
Only when I was 40 did I dare to admit: I finally stopped pretending that I like drinking red wine.洪兰英The author has been pretending to know about red wine since he was 27 years old, reciting lines and putting on airs, but in fact he only tastes sourness. At the age of 38, I spent a lot of money to buy "worship wine" to treat guests, but I almost vomited it and was heartbroken. After her friends dispersed, she poured away the remaining wine, drank ice-cold Coke and laughed, realizing that happiness does not need to be forced. After turning 40, he publicly "defected", always ordered Coke at parties, posted sparkling drinks on social media, and saved money to buy Sprite and Arctic Ocean. The high-end game made fun of "bubbly arrogance" by holding up Coca-Cola, which made the whole audience laugh. The wine cabinet has become a paradise for sparkling water, and the bottle of treasured red wine has gathered dust, leaving only a reminder: maturity is not bitterness, but the courage to raise the cheapest happiness and say "cheers" with confidence.

Haichao actually believes that our relationship has turned into a deep-seated enmity, which is utterly ridiculous. Wasn't he already an enemy when he was insulting and cursing me?
