美好生活，從學(xué)會(huì)感激開始

If you are feeling that life just cannot be any worse for you, it can be challenging to think positive thoughts. When we are stressed, depressed, upset, or otherwise in a negative state of mind because we perceive that "bad things" keep happening to us, it is important to shift those negative thoughts to something positive. If we don't, we will only attract more "bad things."

如果你感覺生活對(duì)你來(lái)說(shuō)實(shí)在是糟糕之極，你可以嘗試著想些積極的東西。當(dāng)我們不堪重負(fù)、沮喪、失落，抑或因?yàn)槲覀冋J(rèn)為倒霉的事總是光臨我們而處于消極狀態(tài)時(shí)，將這些消極的思想轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)榉e極的至關(guān)重要。如果我們不這么做，只會(huì)招致更多的霉運(yùn)。

It is often very hard to think positive when so many things are negative, but I can assure you that someone, somewhere is worse off than you. We can choose to think differently by beginning with the smallest of steps.

有如此之多消極因素還要想些積極的東西，通常情況下這很難，但我可以保證，在某個(gè)地方有人比你情況還糟。我們可以換種方式，一步一步細(xì)細(xì)思考那些消極的東西。

If you start with one small, positive thing and repeat it during the course of your day, you will begin to move into a more positive situation: positive thoughts, feelings, opportunities, and people will start showing up in your life. With practice, you will find that over time, you will change your outlook and choose to be happy, irregardless of the events around you.

從一件積極的小事情開始，并且一整天就一直重復(fù)想著，你將進(jìn)入一個(gè)更加積極的狀態(tài)：積極的思想、情感、機(jī)遇、人們開始裝扮你的人生。這樣練下去，很快你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)你將改變你的觀點(diǎn)，選擇快樂的生活，而不在意周圍那些瑣事。

Here are a few examples for you to practice. Say them out loud and with feeling!

下面有一些方法供你選擇練習(xí)。要有感情的把它們大聲說(shuō)出來(lái)。

1. Begin and end each day with a "Thank you for this wonderful, glorious day!"

在每一天開始和結(jié)束的時(shí)候，說(shuō)一句“感謝這么一個(gè)愉快的一天”。

2. When you see the gas prices hiking, say "I am so glad that I am blessed to have a vehicle in which to get around."

油價(jià)上漲時(shí)，“我很高興我至少還有著這輛車可以到處兜風(fēng)。”

3. When you are late for work, say "I am so happy and grateful for my job as I know that many don't have one."

上班遲到時(shí)，說(shuō)“我很幸福并感激我的工作，因?yàn)槲抑篮芏嗳诉€沒有工作。”

4. If you are having health problems, be grateful for what does work: "I really do appreciate my eyes that see, my ears that hear, my mouth that tastes, my legs that walk, my arms that lift, my hands that write, my mind that thinks, my knees that bend and my tongue that talks." The possibilities here are endless: insert what does work for you and feel good about it!

如果你的健康出了問題，對(duì)目前所擁有的要心存感激：“我真的感激我的眼睛還能看，我的耳朵還能聽，我的嘴還能品味，我的雙腿還能行走，我的雙臂還能抬起，我的雙手還能寫字，我還能思考，我的雙膝還能彎曲，我還能說(shuō)話”。這兒有無(wú)窮盡的種種可能：珍惜你所擁有的，并善待它們！

5.Write down what you're grateful for each day. In moments when you're feeling really down, read what you wrote previously. This will help uplift your spirits. If you practice this regularly, you will find that your list will get longer and longer.

記下每天讓你感激的事，每當(dāng)你失落的時(shí)候，讀一讀你曾經(jīng)寫下的心情，這會(huì)讓你從新振作起來(lái)。經(jīng)常這樣練習(xí)去，你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)你所感激的東西越來(lái)越多。

The key is to move yourself into a positive thought and keep it there long enough to make it a moment of blissful peace. The more you practice, the happier you'll be.

轉(zhuǎn)為積極情緒并長(zhǎng)久保持著這種狀態(tài)的關(guān)鍵在于為自己創(chuàng)造幸福、寧?kù)o的一刻。練的越多，你就越幸福。
