Five extra acts of kindness.
多做五件好事
This is a research done by Sonja Lyubomirsky I mentioned her book in the first class: "The how of happiness".
這是Sonja Lyubomirsky做過(guò)的一項(xiàng)研究我在第一堂課提及她的書《快樂(lè)之道》
She's done fantastic work, showing how people who help whether it's helping five extra acts during the week
她很好地證明人們不論是在一周內(nèi)多做五件好事
it can be more; doesn't have to be restricted to five or people who help five extra acts during one day,
可以更多不必局限于五件或者人們?cè)谝惶靸?nèi)多做五件好事
it's actually contributing to their wellbeing.
都能讓他們更幸福
So helping others is also helping ourselves.
幫助他人也是幫助自己
You know, one of the things that I say and only half ingest, is that I know of no more selfish act and a benevolent act.
我說(shuō)到的一件事，只說(shuō)了一半意思即最自私的所為就是善舉
Again, only half ingest because the two are interconnected.
只說(shuō)了一半意思因?yàn)閮烧哂袃?nèi)在聯(lián)系
And there is a self-enforcing loop between the two, where helping others helps ourselves;
兩者間有自我實(shí)施的循環(huán)幫助他人就是幫助自己
and helping ourselves, in turn, helps others.
幫助自己繼而幫助他人
And rather than looking it as selfish some people may feel this ease way and rather than looking it as selfish i.e. equal immoral.
不要把它看作自私有人可能會(huì)這樣簡(jiǎn)單考慮不該把自私等同于不道德
We should look at it as something that is so wonderful about our nature, a part of our nature that we should celebrate.
我們應(yīng)該把它視為人性的美妙之處是我們應(yīng)該頌揚(yáng)的本性
The fact that our happiness is tied to others,
我們的快樂(lè)與他人的相關(guān)連
the fact that we are tied to others in a web of empathy that's a wonderful thing about human nature.
我們通過(guò)同情網(wǎng)絡(luò)和他人相關(guān)連那是人性的美妙之處
A thing that we need to celebrate much more than we are doing already.
一樣值得我們進(jìn)一步頌揚(yáng)的東西
Because remember, if we don't celebrate, if we don't appreciate that part of our nature, that part of our nature will depreciate.
如果不頌場(chǎng)如果我們不欣賞人性的那一部分人性的那一部分將貶值
