第7章 给心灵配副眼镜 Where Is Happiness

字体:16+-

We can find happiness today if we only look.Happiness is in our hea rts and asks only to be celebrated and valued.It comes from within.If we fill our mind with pleasant thoughts and try to look on the bright si de,we invite happiness.

No amount of money,possessions,or ego gratification can bring us h appiness.There is no such thing as the perfect car,house,job,or pers on to make us happy.Peace of mind comes with the recognition that happi ness is the state of mind we choose.Being happy today enables us to be happy forever.Today is what counts.

Our fears try to prevent us from feeling joy and pleasure.The fearf ul part of us would like us to be in a constant state of watching over o ur shoulder and of doubting the future.Imagine going to be fitted for n ew glasses.Your sight will be improved.You will see things more clearl y.Consider adjusting your mind in a similar way.As unproductive,unhel pful thoughts creep into your consciousness,replace them with better-fi tting thoughts that focus on joy and pleasure.

如今,我们要是用心寻找,就能找到幸福。幸福需要我们用内心去庆贺和珍视。幸福源自内心。若快乐的思绪填满我们的大脑,努力看到事物的欢愉之处,我们就能与幸福携手。

金钱、财产或自满不能带给我们幸福。好车、豪宅、工作或某人,也不能使我们幸福。幸福是一种心态,承认这点,安宁的心绪也随之而至。当下感觉到幸福,我们会永远幸福。重要的是今天。

恐惧让我们无法感受欢乐与喜悦。只要我们内心有恐惧,就会不断地瞻前顾后。试想一下,新配了一副眼镜,你的视力会得到改善,你会看得更清晰。考虑一下按着类似的方法调整自己的思维吧。当无用又无益的想法悄悄潜入你的意识,就将改变你的想法,多想想快乐的事情吧。
