ways to overcome a negative state of mind
有助于扫除消极情绪的方法
Want to understand.
渴望理解
Even if something happened to create your bad mood, you’re responsible for maintaining it–and it’s easy to do that if you refuse to see the other side of situations. If you want to believe your best friend meant to hurt you. Or the world is against you. Or your boss didn’t promote you because she’s out to get you.
就算是发生了什么事情使你情绪受影响，你也有责任作出补救——而且，如果你换个角度看待一切的话，事情往往会容易得多。你还在想好友蓄意伤害你、整个世界都跟你作对、老板喜欢跟你对着干故意不提升你吗？
Instead of fueling your anger for your friend, feel compassion for the pain she must be in–she’d never hurt you on purpose. Instead of thinking the world is against you, put your day in perspective. Everyone has bad days.
与其对朋友生闷气，还不如同情一下她的处境——她绝不会无故伤害你的。与其认为整个世界都跟你作对，还不如端正一下自己的价值观，谁没遇过不顺心的日子呢！
Instead of imaging your boss is out to get you, realize she had a tough choice to make, and you’ll have more opportunities to advance down the line.
与其认为老板故意跟你对着干，还不如多想想老板也自有难处，而你升职的机会又不止这一次吧！
