哈佛校训

• 3. Cultivate compassion. • 培养同情心。 • When we try to step into other people’s shoes and understand a situation from another’s perspective, we’re more likely to handle the situation with compassion, objectivity and effectiveness.

It’s through our mistakes that we learn and grow to become a bigger and better person. • 憎恨和生气是对自我的惩罚。当你释怀的时候， 事实上你是在对自己施以善意。最重要的是，学 会原谅自己。每个人都犯错。只有通过我们的错 误，我们才慢慢学会如何成为一个更强大，更好 的人。
• 6. Do what you love. • 做你想做的事情。 • Since we spend over one-third of our adult life working, loving what we do has a huge impact on our overall happiness. If this is not possible at the moment, then try to find enjoyment and meaning in your current work, or cultivate a hobby that involves doing something you love. • 既然我们成人生活的三分之一时间都在工作，那 么做我们想做的事对我们的整体辛福感就有很大 的影响。如果现在不能做你想做的事情，那就试 着在你现在的工作中寻找快乐和意义，或者培养 一个你喜爱的兴趣。

• 2. Choose your friends wisely. • 明智的选择自己的朋友。 • According to Harvard, the most important external factors affecting individual happiness are human relationships.
