Being selfless feels good—more than one study has demonstrated this. (Kind of throws a kink in the “selflessness” of the act, but we won’t worry about that…) Taking time to do a kindness for another person reminds you of the reasons you have to be thankful, all while strengthening your relationships with others. If you give and truly expect nothing in return, it’s rare to have any regrets about it.

為別人做件事

無私的感覺是好的——不只一項研究表明如此。（有些人對無私的行動有些奇怪的看法，但是我們不必為此擔(dān)心…）花些時間為別人做件好事提醒你懷著感恩的理由，同時增強了你與他人的聯(lián)系。如果你只是給予并且不指望回報，很少會為這感到后悔的。

Do One Thing for the Future

The future is a pretty fluid concept here: next week, next month, your 80th birthday… You can transfer funds to your savings accout, spend time talking with your child, do some yoga as part of a weight loss plan, anything that gets you one step closer to your goals for the future. Regardless of whether you’re learning French for next year’s trip or making a quilt to be passed down for generations, you need to stay connected with your future on a regular basis. That’s where some of your best moments are yet to be realized.

為未來做件事

未來在這里是個非常流動性的概念：下個星期，下個月，你的八十歲生日….你可以往你的存折上轉(zhuǎn)賬，花時間與你的孩子談話，為減肥計劃而做瑜伽，做些任何能讓你更進一步接近你的未來目標(biāo)的事情。不管是否是為了來年的旅行而學(xué)法語，或者為下一代做一床被子，你需要與你的未來在一個經(jīng)常的基礎(chǔ)上保持聯(lián)系。那是一些你將體會到的最好的時光開始的地方
