Saying yes to happiness means learning to say no to things and people that stress you out. - Thema Davis
对幸福说是就意味着对那些让你不开心的事情和人说不。——西玛·戴维斯
This can be one of the hardest things for most people, especially when it’s something requested by a friend or family member. You know yourself the best. You know your limits and what pushes you over the edge. Don’t say yes just to please other people. It’s not selfish to think of yourself every once in a while; it’s actually healthy.
这对大部分人而言不容易,尤其是朋友或者家人之间的要求。你了解自己,知道自己的极限和忍耐程度。不要为了取悦别人一味的说好。偶尔为自己想想根本不是自私的表现,而是正常的态度。
While there are stress relieving activities you can do, such as meditation, sometimes it’s not enough. To become unbusy, you should learn to get rid of the stress-causing things in your life.还有些运动适合你减轻压力,比如冥想,有时候还不够,要想不那么忙,你应该学着去摆脱那些让你感到有压力的事情。
