助你迅速提高生活质量的好习惯

habits you should set aside right away to free yourself from the many problems each one will be causing you.

能够帮助你摆脱这些自己造成的麻烦又没必要的烦恼的习惯

Don't assume your emotions are trustworthy. How you feel isn't always a good indicator of how things are. Just because you feel it, that doesn't make it true. Sometimes that emotion comes from nothing more profound than being tired, hungry, annoyed, or about to get a head-cold. The future won't change because you feel bad-nor because you feel great. Feelings may be true, but they aren't the truth.

不要总凭直觉判断。你如何想并不意味着事情就如你所想，仅仅是因为你感觉如此罢了，这并不会改变事实。大部分的时候，情绪意味着你累了、饿了、郁闷了，此外没有其他更深层处的意义了。未来并不会因为你感觉良好或痛苦而改变。感觉是可能是真的，但那不是真理。

Don't let life get you down. Keep practicing being optimistic. If you expect bad things in your life and work, you'll always find them. A negative mind-set is like looking at the world through distorting, grimy lenses. You spot every blemish and overlook or discount everything else. It's amazing what isn't there until you start to look for it. Of course, if you decide to look for signs of positive things, you'll find those too.

不要让生活拖垮你，学着乐观一些。如果你期盼有坏事发生，想必常常都真的发生了。一个消极的人对于事物的看法都是扭曲的，他会发现世界是灰暗的，到处都是污点。换个方向想，如果你尝试去寻找一些积极的事情，你也一定会发现它们的。
