快乐生活必须要克服的八件事

不健康的人自有不健康的习惯。务必要避免以下恶习,活出一个更快乐的人生。

Unhealthy people have toxic habits that keep them unhealthy. Avoid these  toxic habits to ensure that you are living life to your full potential(潜能,可能性).


1. Always Assume the Worst(永远消极)


Unhealthy people always assume that the worst. They assume no one will like them, that they'll always mess up, and that they'll never be successful in their efforts. They predictmess up, and that they'll never be successful in their efforts. They predict others have evil intentions(意图) and they always predict the worst possible scenarios will come true.

不健康的人总是忧虑坏的结果。他们揣度别人不喜欢自己,觉得自己会搞砸一切,甚至觉得自己不会尝到胜利的果实。别人在他们眼中总是图谋不轨,对于何事都不报一点希望。


2. Possess an External Locus of Control(随遇而安)


People with an External locus of control think that everything that happens to them is fate. They believe they just have bad luck and that they have no control over what happens to them in life. As a result, they take little responsibility for what happens in their lives and blame everyone else for their misfortune.

随遇而安的人会认为一切事情都是命中注定。他们相信不好的事情皆因厄运导致,而不会去努力改变周遭。结果往往就成了推卸人生责任的一种表现,也会谴责别人给自己带来了不幸。


3. Look for the Easy Way Out(寻求捷径)


They want quick and fast solutions. They expect immediate results and don't believe that hard work will get them to where they want to be. Instead, they expect that if something is going to change, it should happen now.

他们一心寻求捷径,渴望结果即刻出现,不相信勤劳工作能通往梦想。还有,如果他们想要寻求改变,就会希望改变立刻发生。


4. Don't Set Goals for Themselves(没有目标)


Toxic people don't create goals for themselves. They don't work toward reaching anything in life. Often, they can say that they want things to be better but they don't try to establish strategies to help improve their situation.

不健康的人不会给自己设定目标,也不会朝着目标积极生活。他们常常都只会希望情况有所好转,却从来不去制定策略来改善环境。


5. Feel Jealous of Others Success(嫉妒他人的成功)


They tend to feel jealous when other people are successful. They often feel angered by people who are more attractive, earn more money, or have a better life. They don't stop to look at the hard work a person has put in to gain that success, but instead believe that it isn't fair that the same success hasn't come their way.

当别人成功时,他们往往会起妒忌心。对于那些更有魅力,收入更高活得更好的人,他们会感到忿忿不平。他们看不见别人成功前付出了多少心血,只会抱怨上天不公,没有把成功降临在自己头上。


6. Don't Listen to Knowledgeable Experts(无视专业人士)


Toxic people tend to dismiss the advice they receive from knowledgeable experts. They don't listen to doctors, dentists, therapists, or financial counselors. They write these people off as “stupid” and tend to want to dispute any advice that encourages them to take responsibility for their own behavior.

不健康的人会无视专业人士的建议。无论是医生、牙医、治疗师还是财务顾问,他都会完全无视。并给他们贴上“愚蠢”的标签,别人给他提出的建议和鼓励,让他重视自身的习惯,他却无动于衷。


7. Avoid Creative Problem-Solving(处理问题方式局限单一)


Unhealthy people tend to think there is just one way to solve a problem. If that solution doesn't work, they don't try to resolve the problem in another way. As a result, they often remain stuck because they can't get around a problem by using creativity. Almost any problem has multiple solutions and a little creativity can go a long way to finding solutions but toxic people prefer to avoid attempting to resolve them.

不健康的人倾向于单一的解决问题的方式。如果那个办法行不通,他们就不会去尝试另外的方法。结果往往会陷入困境,因为他们拒绝变通。但几乎所有问题都有多种解决方案,任何细微的创意都可以摸索前进并找到克服问题的方法,但他们就是喜欢逃避问题。


8. Gossip About Everyone and Everything(热衷八卦别人的事情)


Instead of focusing on how to improve their lives, they focus on judging everyone else. Theyl revel in other people's problems and mistakes and announce their business to the world. They spread rumors and take great joy in gossiping about others. Instead of trying to improve their own lives, they spend their time talking about what others should be doing differently.

他们没有将重心放在改善自己的生活上,而放在了评价他人上。他们沉浸在别人的问题和错误上无法自拔,还到处张扬别人的话题。他们热衷于蜚语流言,又很执迷八卦。时间就这样被花在了谈论别人的对错上,而忘了那应该用于提升自己的生活。
