Are you happy?
你快樂嗎?
Would you rate your health and well-being as above average? You don't have to be a perfect 10 - anything from 6 on up means you're ahead of the game. If you're comparing yourself to others,make sure it's a fair comparison. A 60-year-old can't rate his health as above average if his standard is the way he felt when he was 20.
你是否認為自己的身體狀況高于大眾平均值?答案不必是滿滿的10分,只要6分以上都說明你領先于他人。如果你拿自己與他人比較,請確保其公平性。一個60歲的老人的身體狀況不可能高于平均值,如果他的標準自己20歲時的狀態。
Do you often find yourself feeling content? Being content means you're comfortable with where you are at this moment in life and you have no burning desire to make a change. Life is good and you want to savor it.
你是否經常感到滿足?滿足是指你對自己的現狀感到非常舒服,沒有急切地想改變現狀的想法。生活很美好并且你想慢慢品位。
