Rule 3: Learn How to Delegate
规则三:学习如何委派任务

How do I cope with stress? I clean and organize. - Sandra Lee
如何应对压力?我消除它,计划它。——桑德拉·李

The idea that you are the only person out there who can do this specific job the right way is ridiculous. There are always going to be other capable people in your life. Give them a chance to prove to you that they can help. Some people have a hard time relinquishing power to others, but it’s worth it if you can relieve some of the stress you’re carrying.
那种觉得你是唯一一个能处理好这件事的想法真的非常可笑。你的生活里肯定有其他有能力的人。给他们一个机会来向你证明他们可以帮忙吧。有些人总觉得把权利转交给别人十分不爽,但如果能减轻自己的压力又何乐而不为呢。

Rule 4: Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff
规则四:别忽视了小事情

There is no use worrying about things over which you have no control, and if you have control, you can do something about them instead of worrying. - Stanley C. Allyn
与其花时间去担心那些你无法控制的事情,倒不如去处理那些你能控制的事情。——斯坦利·爱林

When things don’t turn out how you want them to or expected them, don’t let yourself worry about it. You have to be able to accept what happens. Life will throw things at you that you won’t see them coming. Those are the times that you can’t worry about the little things. Take it one step at a time.
如果事情没有按照你设想或期待的情况发展,别让自己陷入担忧。你应该坦然接受所有结果。生活总是会出其不意的抛掷一些东西,所以你根本无法担心到所有的事情。不如一步一步慢慢来吧,。

On the flip side, when little things go right, acknowledge them and the hard work you put into it. Little victories are still victories. When you let yourself feel proud of your accomplishments, no matter how small they are, you feel better about yourself.
另一方面,如果小事都顺顺利利,要认可自己付出的努力。小胜利也是胜利。一旦对自己的成就感到骄傲,无论多小,你都能提升自信哦。

Rule 5: Don’t Be Afraid to Say No
规则五:不害怕说不

Saying yes to happiness means learning to say no to things and people that stress you out. - Thema Davis
对幸福说是就意味着对那些让你不开心的事情和人说不。——西玛·戴维斯

This can be one of the hardest things for most people, especially when it’s something requested by a friend or family member. You know yourself the best. You know your limits and what pushes you over the edge. Don’t say yes just to please other people. It’s not selfish to think of yourself every once in a while; it’s actually healthy.
这对大部分人而言不容易,尤其是朋友或者家人之间的要求。你了解自己,知道自己的极限和忍耐程度。不要为了取悦别人一味的说好。偶尔为自己想想根本不是自私的表现,而是正常的态度。
