如何快速提高幸福感
MAKE SOME "BRIGHT-LINE RULES."
制定某些明线规则
Rubin draws a direct connection between habits and happiness, and she also notes that hard rules can spare one the agony of decision-making.
Rubin会明确界定习惯和幸福之间的界线，她认为某些硬性规则能够减轻选择困难户的痛苦。
“My sister doesn’t eat any kind of junk food at work. I gave up sugar altogether,”she says.“Sometimes bright-line rules are easier, because they kind of get you out of a debate with yourself, which is very exhausting and often futile.”
她表示：我的姐姐从不在工作的时候吃垃圾食品，我也跟着放弃了甜食。有时候明线规则会让生活变得更轻松，它能让你不再在自我争执上浪费时间。
She adds,“You don’t have to decide whether or not to eat dessert, you don’t have to decide whether or not to go to the gym. You’ve already decided, and so it’s on automatic.”
你不必决定吃不吃零食，你也不必决定去不去健身房。你已经做好决定了，一切在自动运行。
