Climb on a tire swing. Be part of something bigger than yourself. Embrace change. Simplify. Think big in the long run, but think small in the short run. Remember the following line from the film “American Beauty”: “. . . it’s hard to stay mad when there’s so much beauty in the world.”Get rid of things that make you unhappy. Make happiness a priority in your life. Do something hedonistic: think afternoon at a spa or going out dancing.

融入快乐，摆脱疲惫：.参与一些超越自己的事项。接受改变。尽量简单。目光要长远，但是也要有近期目标。记住《美国丽人》中的一句话：当世上有这么多美好事物的时候，想要保持疯狂也难。解决掉那些让你不快的事情，让快乐成为你生命中的头等大事。做一些享受的事情：想想下午去洗个温泉浴，或者去外面跳一支舞。

Be curious.

保持好奇心.

Engage in novel activities. Take on new skills. Learn new things. Think back to when you’ve been happiest: what were you doing? Create satisfying, meaningful connections with other people. Practice deep breathing. Savor small authentic moments that bring you contentment. Happiness is a state of mind. Have a small pleasure to look forward to every day: coffee out on the patio, going through a favorite magazine, visiting a beloved friend, baking cookies . . .

参与新奇的事物：学习新技能，接触新鲜事物。当你觉得自己是最快乐，最幸福的时候，回顾一下过去：回想你通常在做什么的时候 ，会感到快乐？与别人创建一种令人满足的，有意义的联系。练习深呼吸。尽情享受那些给你带来满足感的真实时刻。快乐是精神上的一种境界。每天都期待一点小幸福，去院子里喝喝咖啡，浏览一本自己喜欢的杂志，拜访自己喜欢的好友，享受自己喜欢的曲奇…..

Search for the sacred in the ordinary.

在每天的平凡中寻找神圣。

Do a cartwheel when nobody’s looking. Take George Eliot’s declaration to heart: “It is never too late to be what you might have been.”

趁别人不注意的时候来个侧身翻。把乔治艾略特的宣言牢记在心：“去成为你本应该成为的人，任何时候都不算晚。”

Laugh often. Ask for what you want. Hang a hammock; lie in it. Find work you love.Let go of fear.

经常笑. 去索取你想要的。 挂上一个吊床，然后躺在里面。找一份你喜欢的工作，搁下恐惧。

Have courage. One of the greatest gifts you can give to your loved ones is to let them see you living a happy life. When you’re happy you give others permission to be happy as well.

鼓起勇气. 在所有礼物中，你能给你所爱的人最大的礼物就是让他们看到，你过着幸福的生活。如果你快乐，那就意味着你给了人家一个许诺：你，也一样能快乐。

Love. Entertain hope. Cope with difficult situations with ingenuity. Spend time contemplating nature. Accept that sometimes you’ll be sad, that’s just part of life. Make happiness the ultimate goal in your life. Fake it until you make it: act happy.

爱. 拥抱希望。用智慧来解决难题。花点时间来观察自然。接受那些偶尔的伤心，那些只是生活的一部分。让快乐成为你生命的终极目标。在你得到快乐之前，要假装快乐。

Create a serene environment. Resolve to be a little bit happier today than you were yesterday. Tilt your head back and let out a raucous peal of laughter . . .

创造宁静的环境。下决心让自己今天过得比昨天快乐。转过头，甩掉不快。笑声。
