Most people are wrong about the things that will make them happy. Professor Paul Dolan says it's actually quite simple.
大多数人关于怎么令自己幸福的想法都是错误的。保罗·杜兰教授说,其实这很简单。
Earning more money; bagging the fabulous job you have always wanted or travelling the world might seem like the key to happiness.
赚更多的钱;做着一个你自己梦寐以求的好工作,或者去世界各地旅游看起来都是幸福的关键。
But according to happiness expert Prof Paul Dolan, making simple changes are the key to bringing joy and purpose into your life.
但是根据幸福专家保罗·杜兰教授所说,做一些简单的改变才是给生活带来欢乐跟目标的关键。
Dolan, a professor at the London School of Economics and government advisor claims that many of the things people believe will make them happy are fleeting and can actually alter their lives in a negative way.
伦敦经济学院教授杜兰,同时也是政府顾问的他认为:人们相信能使他们幸福的大多数东西都是稍纵即逝的,这事实上是在消极地来改变他们的生活。
However he has identified five ways to be immediately happier. They are:
但是他发现了能让人立马快乐起来的5种方法。它们分别是:
1. Listening to a favourite piece of music
听些你喜欢的音乐
2. Spending five more minutes with someone you like
跟你喜欢的人呆多5分钟
3. Going outdoors
去户外走走
4. Helping someone else
帮助他人
5. Having a new experience
去尝试新的东西
Speaking at The Hay Festival, Prof Dolan said: “It’s important to change what you do, not how you think.
在海伊文学艺术节上,杜兰教授说:“重要的是要改变你所做的,而非你所想的。”
“You should listen to music that you like listening to. That has a substantial effect on your mood. There is no other stimulation like music to arouse the brain.
“你应该听听那些你喜欢的音乐。那会对你的情绪产生很大的影响。没有什么能比听音乐更能唤醒你的大脑了。”
“You spend five minutes more with someone you like and go outdoors. And helping someone is important. Helping other people is a very selfless thing to do. It’s a great source of happiness for you. Just randomly help someone and see the difference.”
“花多五分钟的时间跟你喜欢的人去户外走走。帮助他人也很重要。帮助他人是一件很无私的事情,对你来说也是幸福的源泉。随手之劳帮别人一把,然后看看会有什么不同。”
“And having a new experience is really important. The great thing about new experiences is they actually slow time down. It’s why life feels so slow for children because they are experiencing new things all the time. So if you want to slow down time then have as many new experiences as you can.”
“去尝试尝试新的东西真的很重要。新的体验最赞的地方就是它们事实上能让时间慢下来。这就是为什么生活对于小孩子来说是缓慢的。因为他们一直都在体验着新的东西。所以如果你想要时间慢下来的话,就去尽可能地尝试些新的东西吧。”
