Happiness all starts within you. You can’t search for happiness from the outside world. If you want to be happy, you need to ask yourself these 10 questions every morning.

快樂都源于我們自身。你不可能從外在世界去尋求快樂。如果你想要快樂，每天早上你都應該問自己這10個問題。

1. How can I live in alignment with my values and beliefs in life today?

今天我應該如何遵從我的價值觀和信念?

Living in alignment with your deepest values and beliefs will ultimately make you happy. Human beings are most happy when they are living their life with how they imagine their life being. Imagine what your life will consist of if you live in alignment with your values and beliefs. Will you be a happier individual? It’s about taking action with what you believe in and making the commitment every single day of living out your values.

在生活中遵從你最深刻的價值觀和信念最終會讓你快樂。當人類按照自己設想中的方式去生活時，他們大多數時候都是快樂的。想象一下，如果你遵從自己的價值觀和信念去生活，你的生活會由什么組成。你會是一個更快樂的人嗎?你需要對自己所相信的事物有所行動，要確保每一天都按照自己的價值觀去生活。

2. What can I do today to fulfill my human needs?

今天我該如何滿足我的需求?

There are 6 human needs that we experience. These 6 human needs consist of certainty, variety, significance, connection & love, growth, and contribution. Take a moment every morning and be clear with what you human needs are. These human needs are what matter to you the most. I know that for me personally, connection & love and contribution are my two highest human needs. I live each and every day in alignment with these two human needs and let me tell you, I am very happy in my life. Reflect and be clear with what your human needs are.

我們會經歷六種人類需求。這六種需求是由確定性、多樣性、重要性、關系與愛、成長以及貢獻組成的。每天早上花一些時間，想清楚你的需求是什么。這些需求是對你來說最重要的事情。我明白就我個人來說，關系、愛，以及貢獻是我最高的兩種人類需求。我每天都遵從這兩種需求去生活。而且我可以告訴你們，我的生活非常快樂。想清楚，你的人類需求是什么。

3. Why do I go to work every day?

我為什么要每天去上班?

Do you know why you go to work every single day? Does it seem like you are constantly stuck in a “draining routine”? In order for you to be happy, you need to know why you do what you do. What is the reason for you to wake up in the mornings and go to work? You must experience a passion behind your actions. Without passion, it’s easy to get stuck in a boring and dull routine. Reach deep within yourself and be clear with why you go to work.

你知道為什么你每天都要去上班嗎?看上去是不是好像你一直被這種“讓人枯竭的日程”所禁錮?為了讓自己快樂，你需要明白你所做的事情的意義。你每天早晨起床去上班的理由是什么?你的行為背后必須要有某種激情。沒有了激情，就很容易陷入一種枯燥乏味的日程。深入自己的內心，想清楚你為什么要上班。

4. Am I experiencing happiness from within?

現在的我發自內心感受快樂嗎?

A lot of us fall into the trap of finding happiness from the outside world. Whether it be materialistic possessions or from other people, we must take the time to ask our self this question. Where is happiness coming from in your life? It’s important for you to experience happiness from within because you will be constant even when stress and frustration come your way. You will have a solid internal foundation from within. No matter what you experience in life, you know that you will be okay. When happiness is rooted from within you, you are more likely to bounce back from stressful situations.

我們許多人都掉入了一個陷阱：從外在世界尋找快樂。不管是物質財富還是依賴他人，我們都必須花時間問自己這個問題：你生活中的快樂從哪里來?從自己內心感受快樂非常重要，因為即使壓力和沮喪向你襲來，你是不變的個體。你的內心會有一個堅實的內在基礎。不管你在生活中經歷了什么，你知道你會好起來的。當快樂來源于你的內心時，你會更容易從應激情況中擺脫出來。

5. How can I love my spouse more today?

今天我怎樣更愛我的另一半?

This question is always used in my marriage. My husband and I wake up in the mornings and ask ourselves this question. It’s easy for couples to get stuck in a “draining routine,” where they forget about doing the little things that express love to their partner. Ask yourself this question every morning and make the time to express love to your partner. This will definitely help rekindle your relationship!

在我的婚姻中，我經常問自己這個問題。每天早晨我和我丈夫醒來后都會問自己這個問題。夫妻很容易陷入日益枯竭的生活，他們會忘記做一些小事，向他們的另一半表達自己的愛。每天早晨問自己這個問題，花些時間向你的另一半表達你的愛。這無疑會幫助你們的感情重燃愛火。

6. What is my legacy?

我能給這個世界留下什么?

Take a moment and reflect upon this question. It’s important for you to think long term. What do you want to be remembered by? When you’re able to be clear with your legacy, you are more likely to work towards your legacy. I know that for me personally, I want to be remembered as having a meaningful marriage and helping people live a fulfilling and rewarding life. I live with this legacy every single day. Now it’s your turn. What’s your legacy?

花些時間思考這個問題。想的長遠一些很重要。你希望被人們記住些什么?當你想清楚了自己想要留下些什么，你就更可能朝著這個目標努力。就我個人來說，我希望人們記住，我擁有一段有意義的婚姻，而且幫助人們過一種充實有益的生活。每一天我都在創造這份遺產。現在輪到你了。你想留下些什么?

7. Am I surrounding myself with positive people?

我總是和積極樂觀的人相處嗎?

When it comes to your happiness, the people with which you surround yourself will influence you. We are more likely to conform when we are in a group setting. Who are the types of people you hang around with? If you surround yourself with negative people, their negativity will rub off onto you. If you surround yourself with positive people, their energy will rub off onto you. You have the choice of deciding who you’re friends with. If you want to be happy, chose your friends wisely.

說到你的快樂，你選擇和哪些人相處也會直接影響到你。在一個群體中我們更傾向于和大家一致。你總是和哪種人相處?如果你選擇和那些消極的人相處，他們的消極情緒也會磨去你的光彩。如果你和積極的人相處，他們的正能量也會傳遞給你。你可以選擇和誰成為朋友。如果你想要快樂，擇友一定要明智。

8. Where am I now in comparison to where I want to be?

我現在在何處、我又想要去哪里?

It’s important for you to always reflect upon where you currently are and where you want to be in life. Being consciously aware that you are working towards your goals will make you happy. Understand that where you are now is only temporarily. You are constantly growing, learning and developing your mind. Take the time to reflect on your life. Where are you now in comparison to where you want to be? Do you know which direction you’re heading? If not, what changes do you need to make in order to be in the direction you want to be in?

你要時刻認清自己現在的位置以及你想要到達的位置，這是非常重要的。意識到自己正朝著目標努力會讓你感到快樂。要明白，你現在的位置只是暫時的。你還在不斷成長、學習、發展自己的心智。花些時間思考你的人生。把你現在的位置和你想到達的位置做比較。你知道自己前進的方向嗎?如果不知道，你需要作出那些改變，才能讓自己朝著想去的方向前進呢?

9. What makes me happy?

什么讓我快樂?

This is a very simple question but worth talking about. Take a moment to reflect upon what truly makes you happy. I’m not talking about materialistic possessions or superficial things, like shopping or buying the latest gadget. I’m talking about internal happiness. What speaks to your soul? Focus on feeding your inner being. If you’re looking for long term happiness, it all starts from within.

這個問題很簡單，但是卻值得討論。花些時間，想一想到底是什么讓你快樂。我不是說物質財富或是那種膚淺的東西，比如購物或者追逐潮流。我說的是內在的快樂。什么在和你的靈魂對話?把注意力放在滿足你的內心。如果你在尋求長久的快樂，那都是源于內在的。

10. How am I making a difference in this world?

我能怎樣讓這個世界有所不同?

We all want to make a difference in this world. Whether it be big or small. Life is about helping others live a better life. Take the time to figure what how you want to make a difference in this world. It can be as small as not littering or as big as becoming the president of the United States. You are in control. You have the option of living a passionately happy life or remaining stuck with where you are. You decide.

我們都想影響這個世界，不論是大還是小。生命的意義在于幫助他人過更好的生活。花些時間，想想，你能怎樣讓這個世界有所不同。小到不亂扔垃圾，大到成為美國總統。你都可以掌控你自己。你可以選擇是充滿激情地快樂生活，還是繼續被困在原地。一切由你決定。
