  但我希望你能借此机会想一想,在你的日常生活中,有多少事“仅仅是为了其中的乐趣”才做的,而不是考虑什么成绩、效率和管理。
  这里我要说的是,基于价值的幸福(而不是暂时的幸福)。
  当你在做自认为有意义的事,或在当时对你来说很重要的事时,你所感受到的那种普遍的幸福感就是基于价值的幸福。
  当你热爱自己的事业时,自然就会很有效率,当你为了快乐而做事时,你会征服一切困难,生活也会更加轻松。
  基于价值的幸福是为快乐而生活、行事不求回报的产物。你做任何事情都是因为你想这样做,因为这是你最高目标的一部分,是你在乎的东西,而不是因为你“应该”或是“不得不”。
  基于价值的幸福源于你用心去看事情,而不仅仅是用眼睛。
  基于价值的幸福,是通过聚焦生活的快乐创造而来,而不是一味地寻找可能使你或你的生活更美好的下一个新事物。
  因此,你该如何聚焦快乐呢?
  抛开那些关于管理、效率和目标的东西。(诚然,它们是重要的,但是让我们尝试一些不同的事情,怎么样?)
  注意学习。
  下定决心读书或每周学做一件新事情,而不是制定一个目标,要在工作上取得更多的业绩。
  注意时间。
  你的时间表内应该安排那些对你来说重要的事情,如读书、锻炼、家人团聚、或学习的时间。
  注意原因。
  不要勉强自己去拖厨房的地板,而是放眼拖厨房地板所带来的更高目标(有个干净健康的家)。
  感觉如何?哈,不错!如果你注意工作带给你的快乐,那么,你会更轻松地深入到工作中。(一位作家以献血为例——经历的本身也许并不快乐,但是,快乐是来自于你知道自己为什么这样做)。
  我保证,你绝对会收获更多,会坚持不懈地努力,你的人生旅途会更加精彩。
  新的一年,请聚焦快乐,而非关注付出。关注对你最重要和事;关注在你向目标前进中的快乐;关注创造事物的过程,而非你期待的结果。
  要比你想象的付出更多,这样你不仅会收获回报,而且你身边的人也会比你认为的受益更多。
  抛开琐事的烦恼、高效率地工作、坚持不懈地努力、全身心的投入,请聚焦快乐,而非关注付出。关注对你最重要的人和事;关注在你向目标前进中的快乐;关注创造事物的过程,而非你期待的结果。你必定会收获一个全新的自我!
  Focus on the Joy
  Anonymous
  It’s the Holiday Season—a new year is just around the corner! I’ll bet you’re already thinking about how you’d like next year to be a little different than last right?
  But instead of thinking of performance; and efficiency; and control; I’d like you to take this opportunity to think about how many things in your daily life that you do “just for the joy of it”?
  What I’m talking about here is value…based happiness (as opposed to temporary happiness)。
  Value…based happiness refers to the general feeling of well being that you experience when you are doing what you perceive to be meaningful—when it’s something that’s important to you。
  When you love what you do; you naturally bee more efficient。 When you do things for the joy of it; you’ll rise above problems; and move easier through life
  Value…based happiness is a by product from living a life focused on the Joy。 It is the by product of doing things not for what you get in return; not because you “should”or“have…to”; but because you want to; because they are a part of your highest goals; and what your value。

聚焦快乐(2)
Value…based happiness es from looking at things with your heart; not just your eyes。
  You create value…based happiness by focusing on the joy of life; instead of constantly looking for the next new thing that might make you feel better about yourself; about your life。
  So how do you focus on the Joy?
  Throw out your ideas about control; effectiveness; and goals。 (Yes; they are important; but let’s just try something different; ok?)
  Focus on Learning。
  Instead of making a goal to achieve more in your job; decide instead to read and learn how to do one new thing each week。
  Focus on Time。
  Schedule your time to include what’s important to you; like reading time; or exercise time; or family time; or learning time。
  Focus on the Why。
  Instead of just forcing yourself to mop the kitchen floor; tap into the higher goal that mopping the kitchen floor supports (having a clean and healthy home)。
  How does that feel? Not bad; Huh! If you focus on the pleasure that a desire gives you; you’ll find it easier to put in the work that it takes。 (One author gives the example of giving blood—while the experience itself may be less than pleasant; the joy es in knowing “why” you’re doing it)。
  And I absolutely guarantee that you will achieve more; mainrain your efforts; and have a much better journey along the way。
  Over the next 12 months; instead of focusing on the effort; FOCUS ON THE JOY。 Focus on the people and things that are most important to you。 Focus on the pleasure you get out of moving towards your goals。 Focus on the process of creating something; not what results you expect。
  Invest in yourself more than you ever thought was allowed。 Not only will you reap rewards; but those around you will benefit more than you ever believed。

努力奋斗
佚名
  不需要勇气和努力,任何人都可以不快乐。然而,经过奋斗获得快乐,才是真正的成就。努力去获得快乐,在很多人看来这是一件新鲜的事情。因为我们认为快乐是美好的事情带来的一种感觉,它几乎或完全不受我们的控制。然而,事实恰恰相反,在很大程度上,快乐是受我们支配的。为了快乐地生活,克服一些障碍是有必要的。
  专注于事物的消极面和吹毛求疵,这是着掉快乐的最有效的办法之一。就像在看瓦房屋顶的时候,你只盯着缺一块瓦的地方看。例如一位秃顶的先生告诉我的:“我无论何时走进一个房间,看的只有头发。”在确定自己丢失了一块什么样的瓦后,要思考一下,重新获得这块瓦能否让自己感到快乐。然后,从下面三个中选择一个:把那块瓦取回来;用一块不同的瓦代替;或者忘掉这件事,把注意力转移到那些未丢失的瓦上。
  正像大家所知道的那样,有些人过着相对宽裕的生活却一点都不快乐,而有些   人虽然承受着痛苦却仍然快乐。这其中的奥秘之一就是拥有感恩之心。不懂得感恩的人无法获得快乐,一切快乐的人都是懂得感恩的人。人们往往认为,抱怨是由不快乐引起的,然而,更加确切的说法应该是:抱怨使人变得不快乐。奥秘之二就是,要知道,快乐是其他事物的副产品。快乐最显而易见的来源就是生活中所追求的目标,是从研究昆虫到打棒球的一切事情。我们付出的热情越多,享受到的快乐就越多。奥秘之三就是,坚持能够让我们变得更加快乐的信仰——我们要坚信,有一种能够超越自我的永恒存在,而我们自身的存在具有更大的意义。我们需要一种精神信仰,这是关于人生的哲学。无论哪种人生哲学都会包含这个不言而喻的道理:面对一种情景,如果你选择积极的一面,你将会受到祝福;如果你选择消极的一面,你就会被诅咒。在很大程度上,这取决于你自己的决定,就像快乐本身一样。
  Make Efforts
  Anonymous
  Anyone could be unhappy; it took no courage and effort。 True achievement lay in struggling to be happy。 The notion that we have to work at happiness es as news to many people。 We assume it’s a feeling that es as a result of good things that just happen to us; a thing over which we have little or no control。 But the opposite is true: happiness is largely under our control。 To achieve a happy life; it’s necessary to overe some stumbling blocks。
  One effective way of destroying happiness is to look at something and focus on even the smallest flaw。 It’s like looking at the tiled ceiling and concentrating on the space where one tile is missing。 As a bald man told me; “Whenever I enter a room; all I see is hair。” Once you’re determined what your missing tile is explore whether acquiring it will really make you happy。 Then do one of the three things: get it; re place it with a different tile; or forget about it and focus on the tiles in your life that are not missing。
  We all know people who have had a relatively easy life yet are essentially unhappy。 And we know people who have suffered a great deal but generally remain happy。 The first secret is gratitude。 All happy people are grateful。 Ungrateful people cannot be happy。 We tend to think that being unhappy leads people to plain; but it’s truer to say that plaining leads to people being unhappy。 The second secret is realizing that happiness is a byproduct of something else。 The most obvious sources are those pursuits that give our lives purpose—anything from studying insects to playing baseball。 The more passions we have; the more happiness we are likely to experience。 Finally; the belief that something permanent transcends us and that our existence has some larger meaning can help us be happier。 We need a spirit ual faith; of a philosophy of Iife。 Whatever your philosophy; it should include this truism: if you choose to find the positive in virtually every situation; you will be blessed; and if you choose to find the awful; you will be cursed。 As with happiness itself; this is largely your decision to make。

甜美的九月(1)
哈尔·勃兰德
  九月,的确不仅仅是一个月份,还是一个收获的季节。在八月离去的时候,它翩翩而来;在十月将要降临的时候,它又徐徐离去。一路上,志得意满。历经了夏日的酷热和躁动,岁月终于平静了下来。九月踏着自己的节拍,不紧不慢地为来年夏天积聚力量。
  秋意跟随着九月的脚步来临了,它在笼罩着薄雾的黎明中爬行,然后渐渐地消失在炎热的午后。它拂过树梢,把几片树叶染成了红色,然后乘着一簇簇的蓟花绒毛飘过山谷,消失不见了。它有时在小山顶上停住脚步,然后像十月薄暮中的猫头鹰那般“咕咕”叫喊;有时又与风儿追逐嬉戏,你躲我藏。九月,是一个富于变化的时节,夏日让它变得成熟而富有。忙时,它就像核桃树上忙碌的松鼠,闲时则像缓缓流淌的小溪。
  天空晴朗,凉爽怡人的空气中充满了生命的活力,吹来的风儿没有一丝尘土。牧场上依然散发着干草和刈草的味道。鲜花让九月变成了另一个花的时节,这时的鲜花虽不如五月的鲜花那样五彩斑
