　　工作不开心怎么办？每个人都会有一段时间感到工作不开心。心情时好时坏，这是人的正常表现。即使是好工作也会有不如意的地方。我整理出5条方法，可以让你工作得更开心。

　　1. Find Meaning

　　寻找意义

　　If you believe in the work you do, itwill be easier to

　　connect to each task. Peoplewho are

　　passionate about their workwill do almost anything to make sure the job is donewell。

　　如果你相信你所做的工作，你就会容易和你的工作“产生火花”。一个热爱自己工作的人会为完美地完成工作而竭尽所能。

　　You need to find a way to connectwith your job. I would suggest that you start by listing all of theaspects of your products and services that

　　deliver value. A few ofthese items should

　　ping your heart。

　　你一定要找到和工作擦出火花的方法。我建议先列出一张表，表上列出你所提供的能产生价值的产品和服务，其中的某些项目可能会让你灵光一闪。

　　If a few of these items from yourlist tug at your emotions, then expand on them. How can you

　　consistently keep thesefeelings at the forefront of your brain as you work? You shouldkeep these emotional

　　stimulators in a place whereyou can see them. If you are feeling down and your energy isbroken, then read over these stimulators。

　　如果列表中的这些项目可以燃起你的工作热情，那就继续细化。你要想想，要怎样才能让工作中的自己时时刻刻都热血沸腾。你可以把这些能激励自己的事物放在看得见的地方。当你心情低落，无精打采，就去看两眼。

　　关注内心

　　2. Become more aware of self-talk

　　更关注自己的内心

　　When you are in a

　　stressful situation, watchyour thoughts and see how they add or

　　subtract to your happiness.If you are having thoughts that subtract from your joy, then try tooffset this with fresh angles that help you see thepositive。

　　当你压力很大时，听听自己的想法，看看压力是怎样增减你的快乐的。假如你有不开心的念头，那就换个角度思考，这样有助于你用积极的方式看待问题。

　　By noticing what you are

　　grateful for, you’ll expandyour choices. The more positive choices you have the more likelyyou will feel happy。

　　要关注能让自己开心的方法，多多发现扩展这些方法。让自己变得积极开心的方法越多，你就能越开心。

　　让他人快乐

　　3. Help Someone Else BecomeHappy

　　让他人快乐

　　When you make someone laugh, how doesit make you feel? It makes you feel good. It’s a basic part ofbeing human。

　　当你让一个人笑起来，你会有什么感觉呢？感觉棒极了，这是人与生俱来的本能。

　　Making someone else laugh is the sameas helping someone at work: when you do it, you increase your ownhappiness. You stop worrying about yourself and focus on makingsomeone else happy. The best part is that you improve your ownhappiness at the same time。

　　让他人笑和在工作上帮助他人是同样的道理：当你做到了，你会使自己更快乐。你不再为自己而担忧，而是努力让他人感到开心。最重要的是：赠人玫瑰，手有余香(让人开心的同时能让自己快乐)。

　　记住3件开心事

　　4. Remember 3 GoodThings

　　记住3件开心事

　　When you take the time to remember 3good things, you are training yourself to see the positive in eachday。

　　当你花时间记住3件开心事，那你就是在锻炼自己每天都保持积极的态度。

　　Many of us actually do the

　　opposite: we look at all theupsetting things that happened in our day, thinking that if we lookover our mistakes we can avoid repeating them. This causes us tofocus on the

　　negative and beat ourselvesup。

　　然而，我们往往背道而行：我们总是记住每天发生的那些让自己难受的事，以为只要记住错误就能避免重复犯错。事实上，这会使你关注消极的因素，最终导致失败。

　　多利用长处

　　5. Use More of YourStrengths

　　多利用你的长处

　　You can also find a way to use yourown strengths at your job so you can

　　leverage more happiness.That may mean volunteering for work that you enjoy doing even ifyou have a full plate. Hopefully your manager and co-workers willnotice and try to give you more work of this kind。

　　当你发现你可以在工作中多利用自己的长处，你会收获更多开心。即便你满手工作，只要你愿意，你也会义务为他人工作。总有一天，你的经理和同事们会注意到你的表现，并将更多的工作分配给你。

　　Bear in mind that this will take

　　patience. It takes time to

　　retrain people on what typeof work to give you。

　　记住要有耐心。人们也需要时间来验证你的才能，了解你适合什么样的工作。
