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.

融入快樂，擺脫疲憊：.參與一些超越自己的事項。接受改變。盡量簡單。目光要長遠，但是也要有近期目標。記住《美國麗人》中的一句話：當世上有這么多美好事物的時候，想要保持瘋狂也難。解決掉那些讓你不快的事情，讓快樂成為你生命中的頭等大事。做一些享受的事情：想想下午去洗個溫泉浴，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 . . .

參與新奇的事物：學習新技能，接觸新鮮事物。當你覺得自己是最快樂，最幸福的時候，回顧一下過去：回想你通常在做什么的時候 ，會感到快樂？與別人創建一種令人滿足的，有意義的聯系。練習深呼吸。盡情享受那些給你帶來滿足感的真實時刻。快樂是精神上的一種境界。每天都期待一點小幸福，去院子里喝喝咖啡，瀏覽一本自己喜歡的雜志，拜訪自己喜歡的好友，享受自己喜歡的曲奇…..

Search for the sacred in the ordinary.

在每天的平凡中尋找神圣。

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.”

趁別人不注意的時候來個側身翻。把喬治艾略特的宣言牢記在心：“去成為你本應該成為的人，任何時候都不算晚。”

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

經常笑. 去索取你想要的。 掛上一個吊床，然后躺在里面。找一份你喜歡的工作，擱下恐懼。

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.

鼓起勇氣. 在所有禮物中，你能給你所愛的人最大的禮物就是讓他們看到，你過著幸福的生活。如果你快樂，那就意味著你給了人家一個許諾：你，也一樣能快樂。

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.

愛. 擁抱希望。用智慧來解決難題。花點時間來觀察自然。接受那些偶爾的傷心，那些只是生活的一部分。讓快樂成為你生命的終極目標。在你得到快樂之前，要假裝快樂。

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 . . .

創造寧靜的環境。下決心讓自己今天過得比昨天快樂。轉過頭，甩掉不快。笑聲。
