我们需要正能量：10种方法教你积极面对生活

 　　You have a rough start to the day. Or the week. Or the year. How do you bounce back? How do you get things back on track? Sometimes it’s all about bringing a positive attitude.

　　你今天一开始就不顺。或这一周不顺。或这一年都不顺。那你怎么扭转局势呢？怎么能让事情重回轨道呢？其实有的时候只要有积极的态度，困难就会迎刃而解了。
　　When things get tough or don’t go your way, do you react by getting even more upset? Getting angry doesn’t solve anything. Neither does complaining. Can you bring your positive attitude when you need it the most?
　　当你遇到困难时，或事情没有向你想的方向发展时，你的反应是变得更加沮丧吗？生气解决不了任何问题。抱怨也是如此。当你最需要正能量的时候，你能变得积极吗？
　　When things are going south, you need to turn your attitude around and head the other direction. But, how do you turn on your positive attitude when everything around you seems negative?
　　当事情变得越来越糟糕时，你需要转变态度，朝着另一个方向前进。但是当你周围的事情都是消极时，如何能够唤起积极的正能量呢？
　　Here are 10 Ways to Bring Your Positive Attitude When You Need it the Most:
　　下面的10种方法，能在你最需要正能量时，帮助你唤醒它们。
　　Choose to Be Happy
　　选择快乐
　　This may cliché, but that’s because it is true. Your happiness is up to you. Many people forget this. Truly successful people choose happiness no matter what their immediate 1 circumstances.
　　这听起来像陈词滥调，但是事实确实如此。你是否开心取决于你自己。很多人都忘记了这一点。真正成功的人士，无论他们当前的环境如何，都会选择快乐。
　　Say “Yes, Let’s!”
　　说 “好，我们一起去做吧！”
　　I learned this magical phrase years ago while taking a comedy improv course. In improv comedy, one of the techniques is never to “stop” where another comedian 2 is going with a thought. Saying “No” isn’t funny. “Yes, let’s!” continues the story. The same is true in life. Don’t be a “stop” to the exciting things going on around you. Instead, of saying “I don’t know” or “maybe”… try “Yes, let’s!”
　　我是在上即兴喜剧课的时候知道了这个带有魔力的短语。在即兴喜剧表演中，有一个技巧是当其他喜剧演员有想法的时候千万不要打断他。说“不” 一点儿也不搞笑。“好，我们一起去做吧！” 才能让故事得以延续。生活也是如此。不要阻止你身边令人兴奋的事情发生，而要说“我不知道”或“也许吧”……试一下： “好，我们一起去做吧！”
　　Smile
　　微笑
　　Smiling is one of those universal things that is preprogrammed in all of us. Doubt this? Smile at a baby. They smile back. Smile at a stranger in the street. They will smile back, before catching 3 themselves and hustling 4 off.
　　我们天生就会微笑。不信？对着婴儿微笑，他们也会朝你笑。在大街上向陌生人微笑，他们会朝你微笑，然后才会匆匆离开。
　　Be a Problem Solver, Not a Problem Maker 5
　　做一个解决问题的人，而不是制造问题的人
　　This is an important career tip, although it applies to other areas of life as well. Complaining about a problem doesn’t do anyone any good. Often, others are aware of the problem, as well. Instead, try doing something about the problem.
　　这是一个很重要的职业技巧，也可以用于生活中的其他方面。抱怨问题不会给任何人带来好处。通常情况下别人也知道这个问题。相反，要试着去做一些事情来解决问题。
　　Whistle While You Work
　　工作时吹口哨
　　Ever see someone doing tough work and they are whistling a tune 6? They are toiling 7 away, but yet they are happy enough to be singing a song? Music can play a magical part in your positive attitude. I use Spotify to ensure that I always have my music with me.
　　有没有看过有人在艰苦工作时吹着口哨？他们在辛苦工作，却能开心地唱歌？其实音乐在唤起你的正能量时能起着很重要的作用。我使用音乐播放软件Spotify，这样能让音乐一直伴我左右。
