6. Speak well of others.

6.称赞他人

The Buddhist notion of “right thought, right action” is an important one. It’s in the mind that negativity starts. By clearing your head of negative ideas of others, you will clear your mind of problems, worries and fears, and you won’t be tempted to gossip or speak ill and bring that negativity back to you.

佛语说“思想正确决定行动正确”，这是个很重要的观念。消极情绪是从思想中产生的。清除大脑中对他人的负面想法，就会清除你脑中的问题、担忧与恐惧，这样你就不想八卦或诋毁他人，也不会再把消极情绪带给自己。

7. Be in the now.

7.干什么想什么

Yes, you have to do your laundry and clean the bathroom when you get home, but while you’re here now eating this cheeseburger, just enjoy the cheeseburger. Then apply this lesson to all other moments of pleasure and work—you can deal with the little stuff later.

是的，你回家后需要洗衣服、打扫浴室，但现在你正在吃奶酪堡，那就好好享受现在的美食。把这个道理应用到其他的娱乐和工作时间——你可以等会儿再完成那些琐事。

8. Do not compare yourself to others.

8.不要把自己和他人作比较

As soon as you start this, you fall into a trap of ego, a grasping at the temporal, fleeting aspects of reality. Instead, think about what you have that makes you happy, or at least satisfied.

一旦开始，你便会陷入自我意识的陷阱、世俗的贪婪、即逝的现实。相反，想想你拥有的让你幸福的一切，或者至少让你满意的东西。

9. Realize you don’t need others’ approval.

9.清楚你不需要他人的认同

As long as you do what makes you happy, you don’t need other people to condone your actions. This will free you to act on what you believe, which will instill confidence into your every act.

只要你的作为让你开心，那么就不需要他人认同的你的行为。这将使你自由地做你信仰的事情，并且一举一动都充满自信。

10. Be honest.

10.诚信待人

Lies, even little ones, imply that you are willing to be lied to in return. But when you keep your conversation honest, you will maintain a higher level of integrity in your world.

谎言，即使是微不足道的小谎，都暗示着别人也可能对你撒谎。但如果你诚信待人，那么你的世界便会充满诚信。
