生活随笔:快乐生活的好习惯

燕妮分享

  摘录:我们生活的环境并不会一直如意。有些天还不错,有些天却很糟糕。有些天连公交车也走得出奇的慢,你发誓再也不会乘坐公共交通工具。要学着接受生活有时候不如您所愿的这一事实,与其试着去改变一些不可能的事情还不如将你的精力放在你能掌控的事情上。

  生活随笔:快乐生活的好习惯

  “Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.” — Dalai Lama

  Having a happier life is something we all always strive for, and being happy encompasses so many aspects—mental, physical and spiritual—of our lives.

  What I’ve learned from being happy is that no matter how bad our days get, happiness can be found, especially when we consistently try to consciously be happy.

  “幸福并非那种已经拥有的东西,她源自于你自己的行动。”

  幸福是我们一直都在追求的东西,但是幸福也包括很多方面----我们生活的心理、身理、和精神方面。

  在追求幸福的过程中我学到的就是不管生活多糟糕,幸福一直都在,特别是当我们一直坚持着想要幸福的时候。

  1.Learn how to relax when setbacks arise.

  在遇到困难的时候要学会放松

  We do not live in a perfect world. Some days are great; some days are not. Some days, the buses run extremely late, and you swear you’ll never take the public transport ever again. Accept the fact that that things may not go as planned. Instead of trying to change something you can’t, focus your energy on changing something that is within your control.

  我们生活的环境并不会一直如意。有些天还不错,有些天却很糟糕。有些天连公交车也走得出奇的慢,你发誓再也不会乘坐公共交通工具。要学着接受生活有时候不如您所愿的这一事实,与其试着去改变一些不可能的事情还不如将你的精力放在你能掌控的事情上。

  2.Laugh in the middle of a busy day.

  最忙的时候也要对自己微笑

  It’s 3 PM on a Friday afternoon and you’re desperate to leave the office. On top of the work you have, you’re running close to a super important deadline. Instead of blaming everything not going your way, take a moment to laugh.

  现在是周五下午的3点,你是拼了命的想要离开。但是你还有一堆的工作要做,有些很重要的事项眼看就要到截止日期了。与其抱怨一些不如你所愿的事情还不如忙里偷闲笑一笑。

  3.Do not compare yourself to others.

  不要拿自己和别人相比

  Measure your own successes based on your progress, and only yours. All of our lives are unique, and no one is better than any one else. Try not to think that you are better than anyone else as it promotes unhealthy superiority and can be detrimental to your happiness.

  基于你自己的努力来衡量一下你的成功,只是你自己的。我们都是独一无二的,没有人比其他任何人都要好很多的。不要觉得自己就比别人好,因为那样的想法会促成不良的优差意识,然后来影响你的幸福。

  4.See that colleague in the beautiful new dress? Compliment her.

  看见同事穿了一件漂亮的新裙子?赞美她一下。

  Everyone loves compliments, including that colleague who just walked in on a Monday morning in a beautiful dress. Being kind to others, like passing random compliments, it makes people happy, boosting self-esteem and confidence. Don’t be afraid to tell people how great they look, or how awesome their smile is. It’ll do good for them, and you!

  每个人都喜欢被赞美,包括周一的时候就穿着漂亮的新裙子走在路上的同事。对别人友好一点,像是在路上的时候你的随性赞美都会让别人感到快乐,让他们更自尊更自信。不要不敢告诉别人他们的外表有多美,笑容有多美。不仅有益于他人,还有益于你自己。

  5.Stop trying to please others.

  不要试着去取悦别人

  It’s tiring and you will soon run out of time to please yourself, period.

  很累,你也会没有时间取悦你自己。

  6.Focus on the present moment.

  关注当下

  Take some time every day to focus on the present moment; it is the only certain time we have in our life. Try not to think about the negative past experiences and embrace the time you have now. You’ll soon find that even the slightest thing that you do at this moment can bring about happiness for many hours and days to come.

  每天花点时间关注当下,这才是我们生活中最确定的时间。试着不要去回忆过去不美好的时光,好好利用你现在拥有的时光。很快你会发现哪怕这一刻的一件很细微的事情也会为你带来之后几小时甚至是几天的快乐。
