第一篇

How to Find Happiness Without Buying It
如何不花钱就能找到乐子

Our
materialistic
society
has
led
us
to
believe
that
happiness
cannot
be
obtained
without
having money.

在这个物质社会,我们深信没有钱就没有幸福感。


Rather than learning to be satisfied with what we have, we are taught to want more. We learn
from
advertising,
and
from
the
media,
that
we
need
to
buy
trinkets
and
toys
in
order
to
make
ourselves happy, or to fulfill emotional needs, and that the purchases they are trying to talk us into
will provide us with the psychological comfort we are looking for.

我们不断的奢望得到更多而不是学着满足我们现有的。
通过广告和媒体,
我们了解到为
了让自己开心,
为了满足心理需求,
我们需要买一些小玩意儿和玩具,
仿佛买 了这些东西我
们就能找到一直想要的心理安慰。


Unfortunately, as a society we have bought into these misguided messages and have come to
believe that spending money on certain items will bring us fame, fortune, happiness, beauty, or
popularity. We end up using money as a crutch to provide us with something we ultimately must
find within ourselves. As we become caught up in this charade, we trade precious hours of our
lives trying to earn the money we have been taught to covet so much.

不幸的是我们还是会被这些信息误导 并且开始相信花钱买一些东西会带给我们带来声
誉,运气,快乐,美丽或者名气。我们不断拿金钱作为靠 山,得到最终想要的东西。一次一
次我们深陷其中,于是,为了买到我们垂涎已久的东西,我们用宝贵的 时间辛苦赚钱。


We
trade
hours
of
our
lives
working,
sacrificing
time
that
could
have
been
spent
with
our
families, for the pursuit of the almighty dollar.

我们把生命中的每时 每刻拿来工作,
牺牲我们本该和家人在一起的时间,
只为了追求万能
的美元。


In order to find true happiness, we first must learn to change our attitudes about money. We
must
learn
that
money,
and
the
spending
of
it,
provides
only
a
temporary
relief
but
does
not
present us with any real long lasting benefits. We end up owning something we either do not really
want or do not really need, and the underlying emotional issues remain.

为了找到真正的快乐,
我们必须首先改变对待金钱的态度。
我们必须要知道 花掉挣到的
钱只是让我们暂时舒坦,
却并不能带来任何持久的利益。
最后我们拥有一些 实际上我们根本
不想要或根本不需要的东西,而内在的情感问题依然没有解决。


Rather than focus on the temporary satisfaction you may feel from spending money, try the
following to bring you happiness without it.

与其通过花钱让自己得到一时的满足感,不如试试下面几招让你不用花钱买就感到快
乐:


Imagine Having no Money

假想自己分文没有


Imagine what you would do for happiness if you had no money at all. Think about how you
would spend your time, and what you would do for enjoyment. Change your focus from material
possessions
to
other
things
that
bring
you
enjoyment,
such
as
spending
quality
time
with
your
family and friends. Rather than focusing on the accumulation of possessions, concentrate instead
on playing with or reading to your children, or spending time out enjoying nature.

想象一 下如果你一分钱没有做什么会感到快乐。
想一下没钱的你将如何打发时间,
如何
找乐子 。
把焦点从物质层面的东西转移到能让你快乐的其他事上,
比如,
陪家人朋友一起度< br>过休闲时光。
多和你的孩子玩耍或者给孩子朗读或者出去亲近大自然,
而不是专注于积累 财
富。


Want What you Already Have

满足你所拥有的


Society
teaches
us
to
want
what
others
have.
Instead,
shift
your
thinking
so
that
you
are
satisfied with, or want, what is already yours. What tends to happen is once we reach our goals in
terms
of
owning
personal
possessions,
we
trade
those
old
goals
in
for
a
set
of
new
ones
that
involves bigger, better, and grander objects.

社会教会 我们追逐潮流,别人有什么,我们就追求什么。然而,我们不应该真这么做,
而是对于我们已经拥有的东 西感到知足。
往往我们一旦达到目标就会制定一堆新的更大更好
的目标。


Goals are good to have because they motivate us to work, and to continue to strive for self
improvement. The key is to find a balance between having worthy goals and recognizing when we
are allowing the desire for possessions to overwhelm the importance of other aspects of our lives.
Rather
than
constantly
striving
for
things
we
do
not
have,
we
need
to
shift
our
focus
to
being
thankful for the things we already possess.

有目标是好的 ,
因为目标让我们的工作更有积极性,
让我们不断改进。
而关键是我们要
找到 一个平横点,
不仅能让我们的目标有价值,
还要让我们不能因为对物质的欲望而忽视了
生活其它方面的重要性。我们应该感谢那些我们已经拥有的,而不是不断追求我们没有的。


Volunteer Your Time

把你的时间贡献出来


One way to appreciate what you have is to work with others who have nothing, or who have
disabilities that no amount of money can overcome. V
olunteering time to work in a food bank, or
to work with underprivileged children, can really alter your perspective on where you are in life,
and can create a deeper appreciation for the gifts you do have in your life.

有一个办法让你珍惜拥有,
那就是和那些一无所有的人或者那些身患残 疾的人共事。

一名志愿者在食物银行
(美国慈善机构)
工作或者帮助贫困儿 童,
这样真的会让你有不同的
生活感悟,让你深深的感谢上天赐予你的一切。


Helping others can boost your spirits as well. There is a great deal of personal satisfaction to
be gained from giving aid to those who are in need of it, leaving you with a sense of satisfaction
that
will
carry
over
into
your
own
life.
Use
the
experiences
of
helping
others
to
teach
your
children compassion and civic responsibility.

同时,< br>帮助他人是很高尚的品质。
帮助那些需要帮助的人会让你有很大的满足感,
也让
你终生受益匪浅。
这样,
你可以用帮助过别人的经验去教育自己的孩子要有同情心和责任感。< br>

There
are
a
number
of
ways
to
enjoy
life
without
the
need
for
a
great
deal
of
money.
Certainly, it is important to work and earn enough to provide for our basic needs and the needs of
our
families,
but
it
is
important
to
recognize
when
the desire
for
personal
possessions
becomes
overly consuming. There needs to be a balance between a satisfying work life and a rich home life,
and the best way to achieve such a balance is to ensure the drive for material possessions does not
become all consuming.

How to quickly build a new social circle in any new city
如何在陌生的城市快速建立新的社交圈

Even if you are naturally shy, these three tricks will help you to quickly build a new social
circle in any new city.

即使你天性腼腆,这三个小技巧也能帮助你在任何陌生的城市迅速建立新的社交圈.


1. Take Pictures

1
.拍照片


One of the great things about taking pictures at an event or party is that it gives you an excuse
to get in touch with the person later. Everybody loves seeing pictures of themselves, and it

s very
easy after taking a picture to say

Are you on Facebook?


or

If you

d like I can email it to
you.



在活动或聚会时拍照片,
最容 易让你日后有理由与他人接触。
人们都喜欢看到自己的照
片,拍过照片后,你还可以很自然地问 “你上
Facebook
吗?”
,或问“我用电子邮件把照片
发给你好吗?”


This can be the seed that leads to new connections. The next time you hear about a fun event
email your new contacts to let them know about it.

这样能帮你建立新的联系机会。
下次再听说有什么 有趣的活动,
你就可以发邮件给新认识
的人通知他们。


2. Eat Alone In Public

2
.独自在公共场所吃饭


If you don

t know anyone in a new city, it can be tempting to order take-out and retreat back
to
your
lonely
apartment
or
hotel
room.
Instead,
try
eating
by
yourself
in
public
as
often
as
possible.

如果在一座新城市你没有任何熟人,
就可能情愿叫外卖,
呆在自己的公寓或宾馆房间里。
不要这样,要努力尽可能地独自到公共场所 吃饭。


You
might
feel
self- conscious
eating
by
yourself
but
it
has
an
important
benefit:
you
are
much easier to approach when you are alone. People may be afraid of interrupting you or being
rude if you are in a conversation with someone else.

独自吃饭可能会使你 感到不自在,但是那样做很有好处:单独的一个人比较容易接触。
如果你正和别人谈话,人们可能会担心 打断你们,或显得太鲁莽。


Bring a book or newspaper to read (this will make you feel less self conscious). Plus, having
an interesting book with you will give others an excuse to start a conversation if they

ve read it.
带本书或报纸去看(这可以减轻你不自在的感觉)
。另外,带一本有趣的书,也会给看
过的 人提供谈话的理由。


3. Join A Class, Sports Team, Or Club

3
.加入学习班,运动队或俱乐部


Yoga, salsa dancing, volleyball, jogging, Toastmasters
(a public speaking club), a class for
work, martial arts, etc. Take up a new hobby or continue an old one!

瑜伽,萨尔萨舞,排球, 慢跑,
Toastmasters
(公开演讲俱乐部)
,工作学习班,武术,
等等。接受一项新的业余爱好,或继续原有的业余爱好。


These are all great places to meet new people, primarily because you will be forced to see the
same people over and over again in the class. You will automatically make friends with them if
you have a common interest and are forced to see each other again.

这些地方都是认识人的好地方,
主要因为你被迫一次次 地在班里看到同一群人。
如果你
们有共同的爱好,又被迫重复相见,就会很自然地交上朋友。< br>

Bonus Tips:

额外提示:


* In the beginning, never turn down an invitation from someone, even if it

s something you
wouldn

t normally do.

*
开始时,绝不要拒绝别人的邀请,即使那是你一般不喜欢做的事情。


* Email your new friends with fun things to do instead of always asking what their plans are.
If they have a better plan you can always still drop yours and join them. This will help establish
you as someone who is contributing value instead of just taking it (people want this in a friend).

*
给新朋友发邮件要说些有趣的事,
不要 总是问他们的打算如何。
如果他们有个不错的
计划,
你可以谈谈你的想法,加入进去。
这样有助于让别人看到你的价值,
而不会仅仅是猜
测(人们希望朋友是这样的人。


* Don

t let little things in life piss you off or be a negative person. Others won

t want to be
around you!

*
别为生活中的小事烦恼,或做悲观的人。别人不会愿意和这种人交往。

10 Foods That Will Kill You!
要命的十种高危食物

You

re probably aware of all the foods that are good for you, like fresh fruits and vegetables,
but
do
you
know
about
the
foods
that
can
kill
you?
These
unhealthy
foods
can
lead
to
some
serious health problems, especially if you eat them regularly. Want to know what they are? Well,
keep reading!

你也许很清楚哪些食品对自己有益,
比如各 种水果和蔬菜,
但你知道哪些食物是危害身
体健康的吗?吃不健康食物能引发严重的健康问题,
经常吃的话后果尤甚。
想知道哪些是高
危食物吗?好吧,继续往下看吧!


1. Fruit Juice

1.
速溶果汁


A lot of shoppers think they are healthy when they purchase fruit juice, but these are actually
very bad for the body. Not only are most made with artificial flavors and not any real fruit, they
are
packed
full
of
sugar
and
other
chemicals
that
can
cause
obesity
and
other
serious
health
problems. Even real fruit juice is packed full of sugar that provides you with no nutritional value.
It

s best to eat a piece of fruit instead of drink it, unless you

re juicing your own fresh fruits and
vegetables at home.

十之八九的人 在购买速溶果汁的时候都觉得它是健康产品,
但实际上它却对身体百害无
一益。
多数果 汁不仅是人造风味,
而且不含真正水果,
其中大量的糖分和其他化学剂会导致
肥胖症和 各种严重的健康问题。
就算是货真价实的果汁也含有毫无营养价值的糖分。
所以与
其喝 速溶果汁,还不如吃点水果,当然若是自己在家用新鲜果蔬现榨的就另当别论了。


2. Processed Meats

2.
加工肉类


The chemicals that are inside of processed meats have been linked to colon cancer and many
other health problems. They are also packed full of sugar, salt and fat that can lead to obesity and
diabetes.
You

re
always
better
off
cooking
your
own
meat
from
lean
cuts
and
avoiding
the
processed meats all together.

加工肉类所含的化学成分会引发直肠癌和其他健康问题。其中同样含有大量导致肥胖症
和糖尿病的糖分,
盐类和脂肪。
所以最好还是自己切 点精肉来烹饪,
切记不要和加过工的肉
一起煮。


3. Energy Bars

3.
能量棒


Energy bars are marketed as healthy snacks for people who want to lose weight and get fit.
Unfortunately a lot of people don

t read the nutritional information on these bars in the first place.
Many of them are made with a lot of sugar and fat, even though they are high in protein. You

re
better
off
staying
away
from
these
and
reaching
for
a
natural
snack,
like
almonds
and
cheese,
instead.

对于想减肥和追求健康的人群来说,
能量棒是贴了健康标签的小吃。
很遗憾多数人在选
择的时候都没有去注意能量棒的营养信息。
多数能量棒都掺加了大量糖分和脂肪,
就连 高蛋
白的也不例外。所以最好远离它,相反考虑考虑杏仁和奶酪之类的天然小吃。


4. Frozen Dinners and Lunches

4.
冷冻餐点


Sure
those
frozen
meals
are
convenient,
but
what
price
do
you
pay
for
that
convenience?
These frozen dinners, even those that are low in calories, are really high in sodium. They are also
extremely
processed,
which
means
they
really
put
your
body
through
a
lot
of
work
in
order
to
digest through your body.

冷冻餐点 虽然方便,
但为了这丝方便你付出了怎样的代价?冷冻餐点,
即便卡路里含量
低,但钠含量却相当高。
它的工序繁多,
这就意味着你的身体需要进行大量运作来消化它们。< br>

5. Breakfast Cereals

5.
早餐麦片


There are really only a few breakfast cereals on store shelves today that are actually good for
you. Even those that are labeled

healthy


generally turn out to be packed full of sugar and fat.
You might be surprised to find that most of the cereals you love have more sugar than your dessert
does! On top of all of that, cereals are normally processed quite a bit and made with chemicals to
make them seem

healthier


to the consumer.

如今市面上真正有益身体的麦片已零星点点。
而那些打着
“健康”
旗号的麦片其实也添
加了大量糖分和脂肪。
当知道一般你钟爱的麦片所含糖分比甜点还多时,< br>你可能会大吃一惊!
除此之外,麦片通常经过了一系列的化学加工,以便在消费者眼里显得“比较 健康”



6. Doughnuts

6.
甜甜圈


Speaking of breakfast foods, who doesn

t love a sugary doughnut when they are running late
to start the day? Although they may taste good, these are a huge source of sugar, fat, trans fat and
carbohydrates. In fact, just one of these fried treats is generally well over 300 calories. Since most
people tend to eat more than one, this can lead to quick weight gain without even realizing it.

说起早餐食物,
美滋滋的甜甜圈怎会不受赶时间一族 的青睐呢?可甜甜圈味虽美,
却含
有大量糖分,脂肪,反式脂肪酸以及碳水化合物。事实上,仅 一块油炸甜甜圈大概就有
300
多卡路里。但很多人不仅仅只吃一块,他们的体重会在无形中飙 升。


7. Soda

7.
苏打


Regular soda is a huge source of sugar and a variety of other chemicals that have been linked
to several different types of cancer. These provide absolutely no nutritional value to you and can
lead to diabetes as well. Even diet soda carries risks, as it

s made with a lot of chemicals to make
up for the lack of sugar, and these have been linked to diseases and cancers.

一般的苏打含有大量糖分和各种化学成分,这些化学成分会导致诱发各种 癌症。显然,
如此的苏打非但不会提供营养价值,
还有引发糖尿病。
就连饮食中的苏打 也有危险,
因为其
中为弥补缺失的糖分而添加的化学剂就有致病致癌的危险。


8. Potato Chips

8.
薯片


Before you reach for that bag of potato chips; think again! These are filled with a lot of fat
and calories, but did
you know they are also
loaded with dangerous chemicals? Most chips are
made with acrylamide, which is created when foods are fried at extremely high temperatures. This
chemical is linked to cancer, which can result in death.

当你准备向一 包薯片下手之前,
三思!
这种零食所含的脂肪和卡路里相当高,
并且你知
道它 们也暗藏了致命的化学制剂吗?大多薯片中含有丙烯酰胺,
这种物质在极高温度炸薯片
时产生。 它会引发癌症,并且导致死亡。

9. Low-Fat Foods

9.
低脂食品


A lot of people think that they are being healthy by purchasing foods that are labeled as

low
fat

.
Unfortunately
this
is
not
the
case,
as
most
of
these
foods
are
packed
with
unhealthy
chemicals to make up for the lack of fat. These chemicals are extremely bad for your body and can
even damage your health over time.

很多人认为购买标有
“低脂”的食品能为身体获得健康。
很抱 歉事实并非如此,因为大
多低脂食品都因缺少脂肪而被添加了化学剂。
这些化学剂对身体极其不 利,
时间久了甚至还
会破坏你的身体机能。


10. Margarine

10.
人造奶油


People choose margarine over butter because it doesn

t have cholesterol in it, but what you
need
to
pay
attention
to
is
what
IS
in
it!
Margarine
is
extremely
high
in
trans-fat,
which
can
damage your blood vessels and even increase your cholesterol.

人们选择用人造奶油代替黄油是因为它没有胆固醇,
但你要当心人造奶油所含成分!
其高
浓度的反式脂肪酸会损害血管,增加胆固醇的摄入。
