开启快乐一天:8个小习惯让生活更美好

2013-01-18来源:pick the brain
5. Assume people have good intentions.
把每个人都想成是善意的

Since you can't read minds, you don't really know the "why" behind the "what" that people do. Imputing evil motives to other people's weird behaviors adds extra misery to life, while assuming good intentions leaves you open to reconciliation.
既然你不会读心术,也必然不会知道人们做事背后的原因。对别人怪异的行为妄加恶意的猜测,只会让你的生活更加糟糕,以善意揣度别人会让你更加和善。

6. Eat high quality food slowly.
美食慢慢品尝

Sometimes we can't avoid scarfing something quick to keep us up and running. Even so, at least once a day try to eat something really delicious, like a small chunk of fine cheese or an imported chocolate. Focus on it; taste it; savor it.
有时候我们不得不狼吞虎咽来继续工作。即使这样,一天至少也要好好的品尝一次美味的食物,比如小块芝士或进口巧克力。专心吃,慢慢品尝,尽情享受。

7. Let go of your results.
别太在意结果

The big enemy of happiness is worry, which comes from focusing on events that are outside your control. Once you've taken action, there's usually nothing more you can do. Focus on the job at hand rather than some weird fantasy of what might happen.
快乐最大的敌人是担忧,而担忧通常来自于对无法控制事情的过度关注。一旦你已经做了,那么再也无力更改。关注眼前的工作,切忌对可能发生的事情胡乱猜想。

8. End each day with gratitude.
带着感激结束每一天

Just before you go to bed, write down at least one wonderful thing that happened. It might be something as small as a making a child laugh or something as huge as a million dollar deal. Whatever it is, be grateful for that day because it will never come again.
睡觉之前,写下今天发生的至少一件好事。也许只是逗小孩笑这样的小事,又或者是谈成了一百万美金生意这样的大事。无论是什么,都要对这天充满感激,因为这天无法再重来了。
