Analysis
分析
8 or more As: You are scoring very high for happiness. However, one problem with being so happy is that it may lead to complacency.
8個A或更多A:你的幸福指數很高。但是,如此幸福可能會導致自滿。
You are less interested in changing yourself, or improving certain aspects of your character, than most people.
我不希望改變自己,或者提高自己性格的某些方面,做得比其他人更好。
6-7 As: You are just above average for happiness, either because you're basking in the glow of some recent positive life events or because you have a long-term tendency to feel good.
6到7個A:你的幸福指數較高,要么你最近正在經歷生活中積極的一面,沐浴在一片贊美聲中,要么對于幸福有個長久的打算。
Your happiness dips when you become self-critical—at these times you need to be kinder to yourself if you want to improve your happiness.
當你開始自我反省時,你的幸福感下降——如果你想提高自己的幸福感,這個時候你應該善待自己。
3-5 As: Your average score means that you tend to dwell on times when you have invoked the disapproval of others.
3到5個A:你的幸福指數一般,當你引起他人的反對時,你會仔細地考慮那件事。
You need to realize these negative messages may say more about those saying them than about you.
你需要意識到這些負面消息可能是更多地在說他們而不是你。
Greater happiness will not depend on others' approval for your self-worth.
真正的幸福不是建立在他人對你自我價值的肯定上。
0-2 As: You're scoring low on happiness, which means you're confusing the pursuit of short-term happiness (through comfort eating, alcohol or other self-destructive habits) with what would bring you lasting happiness—the pursuit of a meaningful long-term goal.
0到2個A:你的幸福感很低,這意味著你混淆了對于短期的幸福(通過舒適的飲食、喝酒或者自殘的愛好來獲得)的追求和對于持久的幸福感(追求一個有意義的長久目標)的追求。
You need to stop putting off working towards an achievement that would make you truly happy.
你應該停止拖延做能真正帶給你快樂的事情。
