Have you ever wondered how some people always seem to see the sunny side of things? How missed flights can turn into adventures, bad directions can deliver them to exciting new locales, lost opportunities lead them to new learning, and unexpected changes in plans leave them feeling more spontaneousthan flustered? How does that work, exactly?
你有沒有想過(guò),有些人似乎總是看到事情積極樂觀的一面。錯(cuò)過(guò)航班會(huì)成為一次大冒險(xiǎn);錯(cuò)誤的方向,卻可以指引到讓人興奮不已的地方;錯(cuò)失了一次機(jī)會(huì),卻能學(xué)到新事物;計(jì)劃外的變動(dòng),帶來(lái)的不是心慌,而是自在的感覺。如此樂觀,這般快樂,究竟是如何煉成的?
Count Your Blessings
列出讓你感到幸福的事
Make a written (or mental) list of things you are thankful for, from very small to very big and anywhere in between. To really boost your spirits, set a number (like 100) and then just keep jotting everything down til you reach it. It's amazing what the mind remembers when focused!
寫出(或思考出)你要感謝的事情一份列表,生活中的大小事都可以。為了能真正起到振奮精神,要制定好數(shù)目(如100個(gè)),之后在你達(dá)到目標(biāo)前,你要記下所有的一切。精神集中時(shí)腦子會(huì)記得很多!
Notice Little Unexpected Things
關(guān)注細(xì)小且意想不到的事情
Pay special attention to things you don't normally "see," like the expression on kids' faces when they're playing, the sound birds are making in the background, or a little breeze.
對(duì)一些通常“看不到”的事情,要給予特別關(guān)注,例如孩子玩耍時(shí)的臉部表情,鳥兒飛過(guò)的聲音,還有吹過(guò)的微風(fēng)。
Be Grateful For The Good
時(shí)刻感謝身邊的一切
Being thankful for what we already have is a tried and true way to feel better. Sometimes we get caught up thinking of what else is out there, when we have so many things to be grateful for at any given moment.
擁有后要滿懷感恩之心,這是一種讓你感覺更好、真實(shí)而可靠的方法。有時(shí)候,人們擁有了某些東西,卻還想著其它,但其實(shí)在任何特定的時(shí)刻,我們都要為自己所擁有的而感到欣慰。
