So what are some easy ways that you can quickly set your mood and attitude for the day? Try these techniques to bring greater happiness and success into you and change your life today:
那么,有没有一些简单的方法可以让你快速地设定自己一天的情绪和态度呢?下面这些技巧就可以带给你更大的快乐和成功,试试吧,从今天就开始改变你的生活:
1.Start each day by making a list of things you’re grateful for. You can do this while you’re lying in bed just before you get up, in the shower, or while driving to work. Can you create a grateful habit?
1.从列出感激清单开始一天的生活。你可以在早上还没起床、躺在床上的时候做这件事,也可以在冲凉或者开车去上班的时候列出感激清单。你能养成心怀感激的习惯吗?
2.Love life, not stuff.Simpler is better. The feeling of excitement when you buy something wears off pretty fast, so focus more on living your life and create memories. The quality of your life itself is what will bring you the most happiness, not the quantity or quality of your stuff.
2.热爱生活,而不要爱上物质。越简单越好。消费带来的快感很快就会散去,因此应该要更多地关注于生活、创造回忆。生活质量取决于能给你带来快乐的是什么,而不是你拥有多少或者多好的物质生活。
3.Be patient.Enjoy the journey of creating the life you desire. Each day will bring you one step closer.
3.耐心一点。尽情享受创造理想生活的过程。每一天你都会离目标更近一步。
4.Believe and have faith in yourself. Life is much more pleasant when you have faith in yourself. Remember: You’ve probably already done things that are much more difficult than just about anything you may still wish to accomplish. Do you need more motivation?
4.相信自己。当你相信自己的时候,生活会变得更快乐。记住:比起那些你想要去完成的事情,已经完成的事情实际上接受的考验要难得多。这样,你还需要更多的激励吗?
5.Smarter not harder. We often believe that anything worthwhile requires a lot of work. That’s definitely not true. Really, I think we often make things much harder than they have to be.
5.更聪明地做事,而不是更刻苦。我们往往认为,值得做的事情就需要花费很多功夫。这种观点并不正确。事实上,我认为我们常常把简单的事情搞复杂了。
6.There’s no such thing as failure.Each time your plans fall short, learn from the experience, and continue moving forward. The knowledge gained only makes you more capable in the future.
6.世上并没有“失败”这件事。每次当你的计划失败了,那就从中学一点经验教训,然后继续前行。你从失败中学到的东西只会让你在未来变得更有能力。
I bet you can think of some that are smarter, that fill you with believe in yourself and will motivate you along your life journey. Take these ideas to get started. You will find the process of adjusting those negative attitudes will lead to a happier tomorrow.
我想你还能想出其他一些更聪明的方法来让自己充满信念、激励自己在人生的道路上走得更好。先从上面的这些做法开始实践吧。你会发现,调整消极态度的过程会给你带来更加幸福的明天。
