1. Make yourself a priority
優先考慮自己
If you don’t take care of yourself, nobody else will. You have to be number one. All things in your life stem from your happiness. Be someone who makes you happy!
如果自己不照顧好自己，別人就更指望不上了。把自己放在首位。生活中一切因你的快樂而存在。做個為自己的快樂而生的人吧!
2. Enjoy the small things
享受生活中的那些小事
Take walks more often. Stop and look at a babbling brook. Sit in an oversized chair at Barnes & Noble and read a great book. Observe an elderly couple holding hands. Life is made up of these small and seemingly insignificant things. They aren’t insignificant. Be sure to take the time to appreciate them.
多散步。因潺潺流水而駐足;閑坐在巴諾書店的大號椅子上讀本好書;觀察一對手挽手的老夫婦;生活就是一連串看似微不足道的瑣事。它們雖不起眼，但一定要抽出時間去欣賞。
3. Get outside
留戀戶外
Being outdoors is good for you. Soak in the sunlight, get those endorphins kicking, and enjoy the beauty that nature offers.
戶外活動有益身心。沐浴陽光下，激活內啡肽，享受自然的美。
4. Be confident in who you are
對自己要有自信
Every person is unique and special in their own way. Understanding this early in life is critical. Be proud of who you are and don’t be afraid to let the world know it.
每個人都與眾不同。年輕時，清楚這一點至關重要。為自己感到驕傲，而且要勇敢地讓世界知道這一點。
5. Take calculated risks
承擔可估算的風險
Life is a series of risks and rewards. Be smart with your risks and understand the consequences.
生活伴隨著風險與回報。在風險面前保持警醒，并有勇氣承擔后果。
6. Focus on the present
關注當下
Worrying to a certain degree about your future is normal, but don’t overlook the power of being in the present moment. You can’t change the past, but you can control what you do right now.
對未來有些擔心很正常，但不要忽視活在當下的能量。你無力改變過去，但現在卻由你掌控。
7. Stop caring about what people think of you
別在意別人對你的看法
Fear of criticism is one of the most destructive fears known to humanity. It can debilitate you to the point paralysis. Learn early in life that it doesn’t matter what people think of you. It really doesn’t. And besides, people are too worried about what you think about them to care about you!
對人類來說，擔心受指責是最具毀滅性的恐懼之一。它會使你脆弱得不堪一擊。年輕時就要懂得，人們怎么看你無關緊要。的確如此。另外，人們過于擔心你對他們的看法而無暇顧及你。
8. Remember that people are good at heart
記住人性本善
Being a lifelong cynic can and will make your life an uphill climb. Recognize that people are inherently good and you will embrace relationships in a far greater capacity.
與憤世疾俗為伍，只會使生活艱難。承認人善的本性，你就會敞開胸懷，廣交朋友。
9. Be a positive person
積極向上
Make being positive a habit early in life. Your success in life will come from your thoughts and your thoughts can be either negative or positive. Only you can control which you choose.
年輕時就要養成積極向上的習慣。生活成敗取決于思想，而思想有積極和消極之分。只有你是自己思想的主宰。
10. Let go of negative influences
遠離負面影響
Avoid bad situations, unhealthy relationships, and people who make your life worse. Letting go of a good friend who is going to drag you down is a difficult yet intelligent decision. Failure to do so can negatively affect where you end up in life.
避開困境、不健康的關系和那些攪擾你生活的人。對使你止步不前的好朋友說再見雖難卻是明智之舉。如果不忍割舍，那只會讓你的生活變得一團糟。
