Too many people think of happiness as the ultimate goal of life. But, if you’re waiting for happiness to arrive then it’s likely that it never will!

有太多人把幸福當作人生的終極目標，但如果你只是等待幸福來敲門，幸福可能永遠都不會到來!

You’re always wanting something more, always looking forward to a time when you’ll be “happy”. And, if you fall into this trap, you’ll never reach that goal. Happiness should not be your life’s goal, it should be your life! The only time to be happy is right now! It’s state of mind, not a set of accomplishments or the accumulation of material things. You must accept that life will always have challenges and things will not always go your way.

你總是期待得到更多，總是期待著你變“幸福”的那一刻。然而，如果你陷入這種思維陷阱，那你永遠也達不到這個目的。幸福不該是生活的目標，它應該是生活本身!幸福唯一該存在的時刻，就是每時每刻的現在!它是一種心態，而不是一連串的成就，或者物質財富的積累。你必須要接受的是：生活中總會有挑戰，事情不會總朝著你期望的方向發展。

Instead of feeling disappointed when things don’t work out the way you’d hoped, feel grateful for the experience. Instead of dreaming of a brighter, happier, richer tomorrow, make today as wonderful as you can.

事情的發展不如你所愿時不要沮喪，你要對擁有這次體驗心存感激。不要幻想著明天會更美好、更幸福、更富有，要盡可能精彩地過好今天。

Happiness is a conscious decision and that I can make it right now. Thinking of the future and having aspirations is essential to leading a happy and fulfilled life. The trick is not to let thoughts of the future overshadow your enjoyment of the present and the appreciation of the things and people you have in your life right now!

幸福是我此刻就能做出的有意識的決定。思考未來、胸懷大志是幸福美滿生活的基礎，關鍵在于不要讓對未來的思考掩蓋當下的快樂和對現在生活中人和事的感激!

There is no way to happiness: happiness is the way!

沒有通往幸福的路：幸福本身就是一條路!

Stop waiting for happiness to arrive and simply decide to be happy! It’s not some great goal or destination, it’s a journey and a way of life.

不要再等著幸福登門了，你需要做的僅僅是決定幸福地活著!這不是什么偉大的目的目標，只是生命的旅程和道路。
