No matter what problem you're facing, tough times happen to the best of us. Whether it's financial trouble or just an overall bad day, finding positivity in a daunting situation is the key to overcoming it. It may be hard to look on the bright side, especially when things aren't going as expected, but everything passes in time. If you need a boost of happiness to help you through the day, be sure to remember these things:
不管你正在面臨什么問題，即使是最幸運的人也會遇到困難時期。不管是經(jīng)濟(jì)問題或者只是倒霉的一天，關(guān)鍵在于我們要在不順的環(huán)境里找到正能量！有時候，我們很難凡事都往好處想，特別是在事情進(jìn)展不順的時候，但是一切都會過去的。如果你需要一點幸福感來支撐你度過今天，記住以下這些事情：

1. Accept it.
接受現(xiàn)實。

Although it may seem challenging to accept a negative situation, it's your best bet in moving toward a resolution. You can't change what already happened; you can only focus on how to improve the circumstances now.
雖然讓你接受一個消極的境遇很有挑戰(zhàn)性，但這是讓你找到解決方案的最好的措施了。你不能改變已經(jīng)發(fā)生的事情，你只能集中精力尋找改善情況的方法。

2. Don't waste time dwelling on it.
不要浪費時間老是想著問題。

Dwelling on a problem can only make it bigger than it already is. Not only will you feel worse in the long run, but also, you'll lose valuable time when you could be working toward a solution. Don't let a bad situation get the best of you — take steps to let it go.
老想著一個問題只會讓問題變得比實際更嚴(yán)重。你不僅會覺得越來越糟糕，而且你浪費了本可以用來想出解決方案的寶貴時間。不要讓壞情況阻礙你，隨它去吧。

3. Don't compare yourself to others.
不要拿自己和別人比。

According to a quote from Steven Furtick, "The reason why we struggle with insecurity is because we compare our behind the scenes with everyone's highlight reel." When you're struggling through a tough situation, comparing yourself is the last thing you should be doing. You have no idea what struggles another person could be going through, so instead of comparing, you should look at the happiness within yourself.
作家史蒂文·富蒂克說過：“我們?nèi)狈Π踩校且驗槲覀兛偸悄米约翰缓玫牡胤脚c別人的長處對比。” 當(dāng)你在艱難的環(huán)境里掙扎的時候，你最不該做的事兒就是和別人比較。你根本不知道其他人正在經(jīng)歷什么樣的掙扎，所以與其比較，不如多關(guān)注一下自己的快樂。

4. Make a plan of action.
制定一個行動計劃。

The best way to overcome a negative time is to be determined to find a way out of it. If you don't like the way something is, do what you can in your power to change it. In financial situations, you can work on a budget and prioritize your costs. In a fight with a loved one, you can take some time to cool down and amend things by talking it out.
度過困難時期的最佳方法就是下定決心戰(zhàn)勝它。如果你不喜歡某件事，發(fā)揮你的力量來改變它吧。對于經(jīng)濟(jì)問題，你可以做一個預(yù)算并安排一下各項開銷的順序。如果是跟愛人吵架了，你要花點時間來冷靜一下，然后把問題說出來才能解決它。

5. Recognize positive things in your life.
發(fā)現(xiàn)你生活中積極的事物。

While it may feel like your world is crashing around you, this rough time does not, ultimately, define your life. From family to being healthy, it's best to recognize the positive things in your life. It definitely helps ease the pain of a negative situation.
你可能覺得自己的世界都要崩塌了，但是一次這樣的艱難時刻并不會定義你的人生。不管是一個美滿的家庭或是自己的健康，最好要發(fā)現(xiàn)你生活中這些積極的事物，這絕對可以幫助你減輕在困難環(huán)境里的痛苦。

6. Acknowledge you're not alone.
明白自己不是一個人在戰(zhàn)斗。

Having a support system is essential for any tough moment. Family members, significant others, and best friends are the people you should confide in when going through a distressing time. These people are the ones who know you best and can give you advice from an outside perspective. Besides, it doesn't hurt having someone you love and care for in your corner rooting you on.
在困難的時候，一個強大的后援團(tuán)是很重要的。家人、另一半或者好朋友都是你在經(jīng)歷痛苦時可以傾訴的人。這些人是最懂你的人，可以從旁觀者的角度來給你一些建議。而且，讓你愛的人或者你關(guān)心的人給你一點支持，總不會有什么壞處。

7. Learn from it.
從中學(xué)習(xí)。

There's always something to be learned from every experience you go through, good or bad. Take some time to reflect on the situation, how you reacted, and what you can do if you ever go through it again. Collecting all this knowledge could even help you avoid the situation in the future or assist a friend who is going through something similar.
無論好壞，你總能從每次經(jīng)歷中學(xué)習(xí)到一些事情。花些時間來反思一下當(dāng)時的處境、你是如何應(yīng)對的還有如果重頭來一次，你會怎么做？前事不忘，后事之師，以后你還能幫助遇到相同情況的朋友呢。

8. Look to the future.
展望未來。

Now that all is said and done, it's time to start looking ahead to the future. Leave the past behind you, and begin looking to a brighter tomorrow. Change begins and ends with you, and clinging to a past event won't help alter it. Work on building a better future for yourself; it all starts with a positive mindset.
該說的該做的都完成了，現(xiàn)在是時候開始展望未來了。拋開過去，開始眺望一個更加燦爛的明天！你決定自己生活里的一切變化，沉溺過去是不會幫助你改變處境的。努力為自己建造更美好的未來；一切從一個積極的心態(tài)開始！
