Get more sleep. Seriously. Just go to bed and get some sleep.

多睡觉。我是认真的，就是上床去睡觉。

Sleep deprivation is a form of torture. It may take a few nights, but you'll be happier than when you started.

睡眠不足是一种折磨。可能补充睡眠需要几个晚上，但你会比刚开始尝试时更开心。

What leads to true happiness? One best way to start living a happier life is by practicing gratitude and appreciation. And here is how we can start to appreciate more in our life.

什么让你获得真正的幸福？生活变得更幸福的一个最好方法就是学会感激和感恩。下面就是生活中我们开始更加感恩的方法。

1) Keep a gratitude journal

1)记感恩日记

Start taking note each day. State down 3 persons you like to thank and why. No one you like to thank today? What about 3 events that you should appreciate? Appreciate life challenges instead, rather than feeling pissed about them. Enjoy the slow process of achieving great things in life because what matters the most is the journey.

开始每天做记录，记下三个你想感谢的人和理由。今天没有想感谢的人？那就写3件你该感恩的事。要感恩生活中的困难，不要因为这些生气。享受生活中取得重大成就的缓慢过程，因为过程最重要。

2) Ask the right question every morning

2)每天早晨问正确的问题

Beware about the question you ask yourself in your head, because that’s how thoughts and self-judgment formed. In order to practice appreciation and live a happier life, ask yourself the right questions every morning. Why morning? Because that’s when our mind is clear and our willpower is high, provided you wake up with a good amount of sleep.

注意头脑中问自己的问题，因为思想和自我判断就是这样形成的。为了培养感恩，过上更幸福的生活，每天早上问你自己正确的问题。为什么是早晨？因为那时我们的思路清晰，精神高涨，但条件是你早上醒来时睡足了觉。

So, ask yourself these:

所以你要问自己这些问题：

What am I feeling proud of right now? You can be proud of yourself. You can be proud of people around you.

我现在对什么感到骄傲？你可以为自己感到骄傲，也可以为身边人感到骄傲。

What am I feeling grateful about right now? Recall the moment of someone did something kind for you or any event that makes you feel lucky.

我现在感谢什么？回忆某人为你做好事的时刻，或者任何让你感觉幸运的事。

3) Use “Get to” Instead of “Have to”

3)说“要做”而不是“得做”

By changing your vocabulary, you’re changing how you feel.

改变一下用词，就是在改变你的感受。

To make yourself appreciate people, thing and event in life, replace “have to” with “get to”. Rather than complaining or feeling bad about things you “have to” do or challenges you “have to” go through, think a little differently. You “get to” experience and do them.

为了使你自己感激生活中的人、物和事，要把“得做”换成“要做”。不要对你“得”做的事或你“得”经历的困难心存抱怨或不满，转变一下思路，你“要”经历或“要”做这些事。

For example:

比如：

I have to work every day for 10 hours → I get to work every day for 10 hours.

把“我每天得工作10小时”变成“我每天要工作10小时”

I have to take care of my parents → I get to take care of my parents

把“我得照顾父母”变成“我要照顾父母”
