幸福的人，离不开这8个小习惯

verything around us is changing at warp speed, it seems--but some things will always remain the same. That's why habits are so powerful. Some of the smallest of our daily habits have the power to always give us happiness and help steer us toward success.

在我们身边的每件事都以不可思议的速度改变，看起来像这样--但是有些事将会保持一致。这就是为什么习惯如此的有力量。我们的一些日常小习惯有这个能量让我们幸福还有帮助引导我们走向成功。

Here are eight little habits that can make a big difference in your life and work:

这边有八种小习惯可以让你的生活和工作产生巨大的变化：

1. Early to rise makes you healthy, wealthy, and wise. Numerous studies have linked early rising with success. An early morning wake-up carries benefits that include better planning and anticipation of problems, and more time to exercise, pray or meditate, and do the things that make you happy. Waking up an hour early pays off far more than it takes away.

1. 早一点起床让你更健康，更富有，也更聪明。许多研究表明早起和成功有关联。在一个比较早的时候起床会带来的好处包含了可以更好的计划还有对问题的预料，和更多的时间来做练习，祈祷或冥想，以及做让你开心的事情。早起一小时远比白白浪费要更容易获得成功。

2. Happiness comes to those who are curious. There is no stage in life when we can't be learning something valuable. As long as you live, there will be something to learn, and as long as you follow your heart and your passions, you won't miss out on learning. The tiny habit of being open to learning means you will always benefit, because life will never stop teaching.

2. 幸福感与好奇心挂钩。在生命中没有哪个阶段是无法学习有价值的东西的。只要你活着，都可以找到东西来学习，还有只要你听从自己的内心和你的激情，你就不会错过学习的机会。这个放心去学习的小习惯意味着你将会从中得益，因为生活从来都没有停止教导。

3. Be the most respectful person you know. Respect is both given and earned through the habit of having reverence for people--listening to them, acknowledging their feelings, and treating them with high regard. The tiny habit of respect means you need to treat everyone with kindness. When you do, you are creating your own happiness.

3. 努力成为你最尊敬的那个人。尊敬他人，在养成他人保持尊敬之心的习惯过程中，既是给予，也是收获--聆听他们的需求，知道他们的感受，还有带着崇高的敬意来招待他们。这个尊敬的小习惯意味着你需要亲切的招待每个人。当你这么做了之后，你就是在创造你自己的幸福。

4. Forgiveness takes you one step closer to your happiness. Make a habit of not holding grudges. They do nothing but weigh you down and infringe on your own happiness and success. Begin by forgiving yourself--an act that will allow you to take risks and accomplish great things. Then, exercise your empathy and compassion in forgiving others.

4. 宽恕会让你和你的幸运更进一步。形成一个不会怨恨别人的习惯。他们不会变成你的负担也不会破坏你的幸福和成功。首先便要原谅自己--这个举动会让你远离危险还有完成好的事情。然后，在原谅其他的同时锻炼你的感同身受还有同情心。

5. Achievement of integrity is the purpose of your life. Great men and women are not extraordinary superhumans, but ordinary people doing ordinary things with integrity. Integrity means honesty and fairness and doing what is right, even when it's hard. When you make integrity a habit, nothing else matters.

5. 诚信的成果是你生活的目标。超人和超女都不是特别的人类，而是平凡的人带着诚信做平凡的事。诚信意味着诚实和公平还有做对的事，即使事情很难处理时也是一样。当你把诚信作为一种习惯时，别的也就不重要了。

6. The groundwork of all happiness is health. How you take care of yourself will make an enormous difference in the quality of your life. The tiny habits of caring for your body and spirit will give you the energy and stamina to tackle your goals and tasks--plus boost your overall well-being.

6. 所有幸福的基础是身体健康。你怎么照顾自己的身子会对你的生活质量产生重大的影响。这个支持你的身体和精神的小习惯将会给你能力还有精力来锁定你的目标，还有增进你所有的幸福。

7. Believe in yourself and all that you are. Nothing will ever make you happier than having confidence in yourself. Confidence is the key to success--the thing that lets you look at the past without regret, stay grounded in the present, and prepare for the future without fear.

相信你自己，一如既往。没有比自己有自信更能让你变得开心的了。自信是成功的钥匙--这个会让你远离遗憾，现在就保持情绪稳定，还有无所畏惧的为将来做准备。

8. A day well spent gets you a good night sleep. Get enough sleep! It makes you feel healthier and happier, and it goes way beyond just boosting your mood or banishing exhaustion. Adequate sleep is a key part of your health and inner happiness. When you sleep better, you can live better and find more happiness.

8. 一天过得好，有助于好睡眠。获得足够的睡眠！这个会让你觉得更健康还有开心，还有这个的方法远不止改善你的心情，还有消除疲劳。足够的睡眠是你身体健康和内心幸福的关键部分。当你睡得更好，你可以活得更好，也会发现更多的幸福。
