中華傳統(tǒng)文化中，就有這么一則小故事，告訴我們?yōu)楹我獙?duì)待一切都保持平和的心態(tài)，我們來看看這則故事的英文版：
A Chinese farmer had an old horse for tilling his fields. One day the horse escaped into the hills. When all the farmer’s neighbors sympathized with the old man over his bad luck, he replied, “Bad luck? Good luck? Who knows?”
A week later the horse returned with a herd of wild horses from the hills. This time the neighbors congratulated the farmer on his good luck. His reply, again, was, “Good luck? Bad luck? Who knows?”
When the farmer’s son was attempting to tame one of the wild horses, he fell off its back and the boy broke his leg. Everyone thought this was very bad luck. Not the farmer, whose only reply was, “Bad luck? Good luck? Who knows?”
Weeks later, the army marched into the village and consc ripted every able- bodied man they could find to go to war. When they saw the farmer’s son with his broken leg, they let him off. Now, was that good luck? Bad luck? Who knows?
塞翁失馬，焉知非福
Things are rarely as bad as they seem.Our blessings often appear to us in the shape of pain, loss, or disappointment.
If you remind yourself of this, you can always find a granule of good in the bad, gains in your losses.
The next time you’re in the middle of a letdown, you can uplift yourself by remembering that good or bad luck isn’t in the situation. It resides in your interpretation and is rarely as bad or as good as you imagine.
事情并不像我們想的那么遭。好運(yùn)總是以痛苦、失落的方式呈現(xiàn)。如果能時(shí)刻這樣提醒自己，就會(huì)在挫折中發(fā)現(xiàn)其背面的好事。事情的好壞取決于我們解讀時(shí)的心態(tài)。
Smart Tricks to Boost Your Mood
• Remember to HALT when you are feeling overwhelmed.
• Unplug from your electronic devices once in a while to enjoy life’s other pleasures.
• Make it a habit to name your strengths when you list your shortcomings so you have a more balanced picture of who you really are.
• Look for the upside of every bad situation so the letdown doesn’t hold you down.
• Connect with a Power greater than you so your ego doesn’t call the shots.
最后這句比較抽象，說的是連接更強(qiáng)大的精神力量，這樣消極的自我就失去市場了。 call the shots意為“發(fā)號(hào)施令;操縱”
