12. Invite someone over (or a group of someones) that you would like to get to know: set a specific time and day for a dinner together. The world could use more socializing. What about you? Take the initiative and make the invitation to a new friendship.

   12. 邀请某个你愿意了解的人（或一群人）到家中做客。定一个具体的日子和时刻和他/他们共进晚餐。适度的社交是必要的，你还在等待什么呢？采取主动，发出邀请，也意味着打开一扇新的友谊之门。

13. Give your spouse a physical sign of affection for 30 seconds in public. Brush your hand softly on her cheek, run your fingers through his hair, give a soft hug, a gentle squeeze of the hand, or a quick kiss. It is good for children to see their parents comfortable with quick displays of affection, and great for strengthening intimacy in marriage. Imagine how closeness might grow in marriages if every couple deliberately showed affection for 30 seconds? Better yet, do it several times a day.

   13.在公共场所花30秒对你的伴侣用肢体表达爱意。用手轻轻的摩挲她的面颊，用手指抚弄他的头发，来一个轻轻的拥抱，温柔的握紧他的手，或是一个蜻蜓点水的吻。让孩子们看到父母很自然的迅速表达爱意是有益的。这样也能加强婚姻的亲密感。试想一下如果每一对伴侣都用30秒的时间来有意识的表达爱意，会对婚姻中亲密感的增强有多么大的作用。如果能一天做几次就更好了。

16. Pray every morning for 30 seconds to conquer your fear and courageously face all your opportunities, keep your mind open in setting goals and keep your attitude positive.

After the 30 seconds, you may be inspired to make a change.

   16. 每天早晨祈祷30秒，以克服恐惧，或是获得勇气去面对你的所有机会。在树立目标的时候保持心胸开阔，态度要积极。以优先级标准迅速的判断你当天的计划（须保证你的选择与你的重点相符-记住无论在职场还是家中，时间都是你最宝贵的资产）. 30秒之后，你也许已经获得激励去做一些改变。

18. Put $20 in an envelope (or $50 or $100), write “from anonymous”, and secretly (and quickly, to fit in 30 seconds) leave it with someone you know could use it. Doing good deeds without public recognition feels great.. Try it and see!

   18.将20美元（50美元或100美元也行）放在一个信封里，写上"来自无名氏"。然后悄悄地（当然，也要迅速地，以保持30秒的纪录）放在你知道需要它的人那里。私下里做一些善意的小事感觉很棒！不信可以试试看。
