You’re waiting for something to change in your life before you can be happy. You might think if only you had a different partner (or one at all), a better job, or kids that did their homework then surely you’d be happy. Surely then you’d wake each morning with the glow of one living a life worth loving. Enough! Here are 7 ways to get started:
你在等待你生命中出现转机,然后你才能开心。你可能认为只有等你有了一个不同的搭档 (或是所有的一切),一个更好的工作,或者是孩子完成了他们的家庭作业之后你才能开心。这样你才能每天醒来的时候伴着一缕希望。 够了!这里有5种方法让你开始新生:

1. Be present – You must be aware of your current existence and that you have control over your perspective. Whether you’re willing away early morning grouchiness or seeing a messy house as a chance to teach teamwork, your choice of perspective will make all the difference between just living and loving.
1. 活在当下 – 你必须意识到你的现在,你可以掌控自己的观点。无论你是想逃离晨间抱怨或是见到一团糟的屋子,作为一次团队精神教育。你对观点的选择会在生活和爱产生不同的结果.

2. Practice gratefulness – Every day, no excuses. Pretend to be grateful if you must. It’s one of those things that catches up to you quickly as life reciprocates your emotional generosity. Seeing the good in your life will allow you to keep your heart fed while you work to change the more unsavory parts. Try it. Live it. You’ll love it.
2. 学会感恩 – 每天都要感恩,不要用任何借口逃避。 如果有必要的话装也要装着感恩。这是一样能迅速赶上你就像生活回报你在感情上的宽容。当你尝试改变生活中不好的地方时,发现生活之美会让你的心暖洋洋。尝试一下,这样的生活,你会爱上的。

3. Pursue balance - As a person given to extremes this has always been a tough one for me. I’ll go from taking great care of myself and communicating well to abandonment and silence as I let work consume me. The pursuit of balance requires constant adjustment as your life shifts but every time I really try for the middle I end up happier about my life. And that’s truly the point.
3. 寻求平衡 - 做一个极端的人对我来说很艰难。我将会更加关怀我自己,从联络能力良好到置之不理再到保持静默,就好像我让工作毁了我自己。这种对平衡的追求要求随着你的生活转变不断进行调整,但是每次我试着求得平衡,我的生活就更加开心,这才是最重要的。



4. Nurture friendships – You know the people who for some reason or other welcome you into their lives? Treasure them. Make time to spend with them. It is those relationships that you’ll look back on with satisfaction when you get old and begin to wonder what your life was worth. Many of us spend far too much time thinking about how some material possession will improve our lives. An iMac would be nice. A good friend is worth just about everything though!
4. 维系友情 –你了解那些因各种原因欢迎你进入他们生活的人吗?请珍惜他们,花些时间和他们在一起。等你老的时候,开始回想过去的功过,这些人际关系能带给你满足感。很多人花了很多时间思考物质如何能改善自己的生活。一台苹果电脑就很好。事实上,一个好友抵得上世间的一切。

5. Embrace simplicity – You don’t need to have all your gold-plated ducks in a row in order to love the life you’re living. You don’t need lots of stuff and relationships so driven by drama that you often wish just to be left alone in silence. Instead you might try for a simpler approach and enjoy things because they are useful and not because they are expensive. You might join a friend just to talk and not worry about all the expensive trappings we so often heap on get-together’s. Try for simplicity and if complexity sneaks up on you, so be it. In learning to love the basics you’ll find a wondrous appreciation for the nicer things that come along.
5. 追求简单 – 你不需要一排排的镀金鸭子来爱你现在过的生活。你不需要很多东西和各种人际关系这些东西来驱动你,这样反而会让你希望能清静一下。你可能会想尝试一下更加简单的生活方式,享受生活是因为这样做有益而不是因为这样做很奢侈。 你可能会想和一个朋友随便聊聊,不用担心高昂的聚会花费。试着简单,如果复杂靠近你,就顺其自然。学会基本的爱生活,你会发现随之而来的对美好事物的美妙感受。

What have you found helps bring you back to the moment you’re in and really start to enjoy the life you’re living right now?
什么能让你回到你喜欢的生活?让你真正地享受你眼下正在过的生活?
