What should you do when you feel discouragement?
感到沮丧的时候应该做什么？
Consider who we are spending time with
想想我们该花时间和谁在一起
The people who we spend the most time with might be a major contributing factor to feeling discouragement. This can be a very hard one, especially if those people are family and loved ones. We have a tendency to become who we most frequently associate with, and if we spend all our time with people who are constantly negative, and feeling sorry for themselves, we can be influenced to see life through a similar lens.
和我们相处最久的那些人也许是带来沮丧的最大因素。这听起来不大舒服，尤其是他们会是家人或爱人。我们总会不知觉的变成身边最亲近人的样子，如果我们一直和消极的人在一起，为他们感到难过，我们也会被影响和他们一样去看待生活。
So what can we do? We can't simply cut loved ones out of our lives. So what we should do is simply expand our social network. Join a peer group that is positive. Start to surround ourselves with positive people as a balance. Over time we will start to take on their mindset and this will help with any feelings of discouragement we may have.
那该怎么办呢？我们不能简单的把爱人排除在生活之外。所以能做的就是扩大自己的社交圈。加入积极的同龄人小组。让周围充满了正能量的人作为平衡。不知不觉我们就会吸取这些正能量，也能帮助我们减少沮丧感。
