SixTipsForHappinessbyTalBen-Shahar
1.Giveyourselfpermissiontobehuman.Whenweacceptemotions—suchasfear,sadness,oranxiety—asnatural,wearemorelikelytoovercomethem.Rejectingouremotions,positiveornegative,leadstofrustrationandunhappiness.
1.接受自己全然为人。
失望、烦乱、悲伤是人性的一部分。接纳这些，并把它们当成自然之事，允许自己偶尔的失落和伤感。然后问问自己，能做些什么来让自己感觉好过一点。
2.Happinessliesattheintersectionbetweenpleasureandmeaning.Whetheratworkorathome,thegoalistoengageinactivitiesthatarebothpersonallysignificantandenjoyable.Whenthisisnotfeasible,makesureyouhavehappinessboosters,momentsthroughouttheweekthatprovideyouwithbothpleasureandmeaning.
2.遵从你内心的热情。
选择对你有意义并且能让你快乐的课，不要只是为了轻松地拿一个A而选课，或选你朋友上的课，或是别人认为你应该上的课。
3.Keepinmindthathappinessismostlydependentonourstateofmind,notonourstatusorthestateofourbankaccount.Barringextremecircumstances,ourlevelofwellbeingisdeterminedbywhatwechoosetofocuson(thefullortheemptypartoftheglass)andbyourinterpretationofexternalevents.Forexample,doweviewfailureascatastrophic,ordoweseeitasalearningopportunity?
3.学会失败。
成功没有捷径，历史上有成就的人，总是敢于行动，也会经常失败。不要让对失败的恐惧，绊住你尝试新事物的脚步。
4.Simplify!Weare,generally,toobusy,tryingtosqueezeinmoreandmoreactivitiesintolessandlesstime.Quantityinfluencesquality,andwecompromiseonourhappinessbytryingtodotoomuch.
4.简化生活。
更多并不总代表更好，好事多了，不一定有利。你选了太多的课吗？参加了太多的活动吗？应求精而不在多。
5.Rememberthemind-connection.Whatwedo—ordon’tdo—withourbodiesinfluencesourmind.Regularexercise,adequatesleep,andhealthyeatinghabitsleadtobothphysicalandmentalhealth.
5.有规律地锻炼。
体育运动是你生活中最重要的事情之一。每周只要3次，每次只要30分钟，就能大大改善你的身心健康。
6.Expressgratitude,wheneverpossible.Wetoooftentakeourlivesforgranted.Learntoappreciateandsavorthewonderfulthingsinlife,frompeopletofood,fromnaturetoasmile.
6.表达感激。
生活中，不要把你的家人、朋友、健康、教育等这一切当成理所当然的。它们都是你回味无穷的礼物。记录他人的点滴恩惠，始终保持感恩之心。每天或至少每周一次，请你把它们记下来。
