法则三:不断自我教育
To be happy we need continuous growth. The best way to grow is life long education. This doesn’t
mean you need to pursue a doctorate or spend 2 hours reading every day. Self education can be anything
that takes you out of your comfort zone. The important part is keeping an open mind and searching for f
resh ideas and perspectives.Education builds over time. It might feel like the bits of wisdom you acquire
don’t mean much, but over the years they add up to form a wiser, kinder, more interesting person. 4. Develop Lasting Personal Relationships
法则四:关注情感生活
Suppose you had everything you wanted. Would you be happy without anyone to share it with? The
personal relationships we develop with friends and family members are the greatest source of happiness
in our lives. Don’t forget about them.Taking the time to cultivate and enjoy personal relationships is
essential to longterm happiness. Without the people you care about you’ll probably be miserable, no
matter how successful you become.
5. Work Towards a Dream You’re Passionate About
法则五:行动成就梦想
Even if your life isn’t perfect, you can always build towards a goal you’re passionate about. If you
aren’t building towards something, you’re probably stagnating. When this happens to me I start to
feel like a victim trapped by my own life. The best way to reverse this is working towards a goal.We
can’t control everything about our lives, but working towards a goal gives us something positive to
focus on and lays the foundation for future success. No matter what your passion is, get out there and
start doing something. As Lao Tzu said, even a journey of 1,000 miles begins with a single step.
6. Stay in Shape
法则六:保持身体健康
You only get one body. Once it’s been ruined there isn’t much you can do about it. Exercise to keep
the rust off. Avoid excessive consumption of damaging substances and unhealthy foods. It may feel like
terrible self denial at the time but enjoying good health in your later years is worth the sacrifice.
