Analysis
分析
8 or more As: You are scoring very high for happiness. However, one problem with being so happy is that it may lead to complacency.
8个A或更多A:你的幸福指数很高。但是,如此幸福可能会导致自满。
You are less interested in changing yourself, or improving certain aspects of your character, than most people.
我不希望改变自己,或者提高自己性格的某些方面,做得比其他人更好。
6-7 As: You are just above average for happiness, either because you're basking in the glow of some recent positive life events or because you have a long-term tendency to feel good.
6到7个A:你的幸福指数较高,要么你最近正在经历生活中积极的一面,沐浴在一片赞美声中,要么对于幸福有个长久的打算。
Your happiness dips when you become self-critical—at these times you need to be kinder to yourself if you want to improve your happiness.
当你开始自我反省时,你的幸福感下降——如果你想提高自己的幸福感,这个时候你应该善待自己。
3-5 As: Your average score means that you tend to dwell on times when you have invoked the disapproval of others.
3到5个A:你的幸福指数一般,当你引起他人的反对时,你会仔细地考虑那件事。
You need to realize these negative messages may say more about those saying them than about you.

Greater happiness will not depend on others' approval for your self-worth.
真正的幸福不是建立在他人对你自我价值的肯定上。
0-2 As: You're scoring low on happiness, which means you're confusing the pursuit of short-term happiness (through comfort eating, alcohol or other self-destructive habits) with what would bring you lasting happiness—the pursuit of a meaningful long-term goal.
0到2个A:你的幸福感很低,这意味着你混淆了对于短期的幸福(通过舒适的饮食、喝酒或者自残的爱好来获得)的追求和对于持久的幸福感(追求一个有意义的长久目标)的追求。
