How to be happy?

  如何获得幸福:寻找幸福公式?

  In the past two weeks we have looked at the happiness formula defined by positive psychologist Martin Seligman, where H (happiness) = S (your biological set point for feeling happy) + C (the conditions of your life) + V (the voluntary choices you make). This week we look at the conditions in life that can improve our happiness quotient.
  过去两周我们研究了一项幸福公式,这是由乐观心理学家马丁塞利格曼定义的。H(幸福)=S(个人生理幸福感受的固定指数)+C(个人生活状态)+V(个人主观选择)本周我们将着眼于能提升幸福指数的生活状态。
Step 1: Peace and quiet
第一步:平和宁静

  Jonathon Haidt in his excellent book, 'The Happiness Hypothesis', notes that research shows that we can never completely adapt to new or chronic noise pollution. Loud noises trigger one of our most primitive fear responses (the other is the fear of falling) and we can never fully relax if we are surrounded by intrusive noise. Noisy neighbours are one of the most emotive causes of domestic upset for a very good reason. It is essential to have some peace and quiet every day. If you are unfortunate enough to live somewhere noisy, persist with complaining to your local council. Additionally, try wearing wax earplugs to give you some respite. If you need your TV, radio or music up loud, wearing headphones demonstrates altruism to your neighbours, which will make you and them feel good.
  乔纳森海迪在他的优秀著作《幸福假说》当中提到,研究调查显示,我们不可能完全适应噪音污染,无论是新近的还是长期的。巨大噪声会引起我们某种面对恐惧本能反映(另一种是对于坠落的恐惧),如果周遭噪音喧闹,我们不可能完全放松。这样看来,吵闹的邻居的确对我们家庭不和起到很大影响。每日保持平和宁静事关重要。如果不幸你生活环境比较吵,请一定要坚持去居委会投诉。另外,试试实用耳塞,可能会缓解噪声。如果你一定要大声看电视听收银放音乐的话,记得戴上耳机,别影响邻里,这样可以使双方都感到舒适。
Step 2: Relationships
第二步:人际关系

  This is the most important of all the external conditions that can improve your happiness quotient. Often our deepest sources of unhappiness are found in poor relationships with others. A colleague at work who bullies or dismisses us creates untold wretchedness. A cruelly conflictual relationship with a partner or lover leaves us feeling betrayed and abandoned. A relationship with our parents or children which is not based on compassionate, unconditional regard creates isolation and misery. We never fully adapt to hostile relationships, they invidiously contaminate our wellbeing, squatting inside our minds as unresolved, destructive ruminations. When faced with such relationships, the most positive thing we can do is to either mend the relationship by confronting what is going wrong or learn to move on.
  这是增加幸福指数的一条至关重要的内部条件。我们感到不快乐的最深层原因,往往就是人际关系欠佳。如果一个在职同事对我们表示威吓的话,会造成难以言语的抑郁情绪。与拍档或者爱人的关系陷入残酷竞争之中,会让我们感到背叛和背弃。与父母孩子之间的关系缺乏同情心和无私关心,那么这会造成隔阂生产痛苦。我们不可能适应这种敌对关系,这种不良的人际关系会损害身心健康,长久留存在我们心里,会让人陷入无以解决的恶性心理困境。当我们面临这类问题时,最好的办法,就是直面难题,挽救关系,或者学着继续前进。
Step 3: Share
第三步:分享

  If you have discovered conditions or choices in life that have significantly improved your wellbeing, I would like to share them with readers. Passing on what works is essential to improve our own and the wellbeing of others.
  如果你发觉生活状态或者做的某项决定对幸福生活有极大帮助的话,我很想将其和读者们分享。将有用的发现与更多人分享,这对增进自己的幸福和他人的幸福都有积极作用。

在网上相识其实是一种缘份。

茫茫网海两个素不相识远隔千山万水的网上人,用鼠标轻轻点击对方的网名,就开始了一段莫名的缘分。

如果能成为相知的朋友,那这种缘分又更深了一层。

能在茫茫网海相遇,我想这也是冥冥之中操纵缘分的上天,借网络搭起有缘人相遇的桥梁,让彼此互相理解、互相尊重、互相信任、互相包容,精心培育并呵护好友情之花。所以,这种缘分应该值得我们好好珍惜用心把握。

在网上停留的时间越长就越感觉网上友情尤其是挚友之情的珍贵和难得。网上挚友之情,是一种没有任何功利心的纯粹友情,它不依*双方的事业、名利、地位、身份、履历等功利因素,利用网络互诉生活中的点点滴滴互相探讨人生真谛,实际上是独立人格之间的一种互相呼应和认同,互相解读彼此存在的意义,舒张生活压力,缓解灵魂深处的孤独感,让彼此在滚滚红尘中活得更加自在更加洒脱。正因为网上友情的珍贵,尤其值得网上人用爱心用真情来珍惜难得的缘分,不强求不猜疑,豁达地对待网友,互相理解互相尊重互相信任互相包容,精心培育并呵护友情之花。   

挚友之交应该类似君子之交,是一种清淡单纯的友谊,这种友谊的基础应该是心灵上的互惠。多数人上网是为了宣泄日常生活中的压力苦闷和抑郁,为了有人能分享自己的欢乐,让忧愁减半欢乐加倍。所以当网友获得成功,向你传递喜讯的时候,你就把真诚的祝贺献给朋友;当朋友对你倾诉心中的忧愁苦闷和烦恼,你就用一颗同理心为朋友排忧解难,把温暖人心的勉励话语通过冷冷的网线传递到网络的另一端。往往在朋友情绪低落的时候,一封email、一声关注、一句平常的体己语,也许就能缓解朋友的苦闷助其走出低谷。   

岁月悠悠,往事如昨,昨夜的星辰无法辉映今天的湖光山色,因此我们应该珍惜现在所拥有的一切,珍惜友情,珍惜网络为我们缔结的缘分,在网络里用真心用真情来弹奏一曲“友谊地久天长”。
