先輩牛人的無數例子告訴我們，多為別人斟酌，多付出那么一點點，也許別人可能對你更深印象，也就是這“興許”，可以讓你獲自得想不到的播種。

　　1. Buy someone's coffee.

　　為別人買杯咖啡

　　It's just coffee -- no one needs coffee, so this doesn't really matter, right? But what if you knew that a $2 cup of caffeine could change someone's day, week or their whole perspective? Boom: That cup of coffee just changed the world.

　　只是杯咖啡罷了——沒人必需要喝咖啡，所以也無所謂，對吧?但是如果你知道2美元一杯的咖啡可以改變一個人的一天、一周甚至整個人生，那你會怎么做?哇，一杯咖啡轉變了全部世界。

　　2. Smile with eye contact.

　　微笑著用眼神交換。

　　In a world where smart phones rule and it's not just possible, but normal, to have entire conversations without ever looking someone in the eye, it can be heart-stopping, wonderful and double-take-worthy to lock eyes with someone grinning. Happiness is contagious, and it only takes a couple facial muscles to spread it.

　　在一個智能手機統治的世界，在整個交流的進程中，連看也不看對方一眼，這樣的行動不僅是可能的，也是畸形的。要是看著對方咧嘴笑，就會有屏息凝氣、十分巧妙的感覺�？旎钍强梢哉慈镜�，只需通過幾個面部肌肉的活動就可以把它傳布。

　　3. Give what you can.

　　盡你所能地付出

　　You clean out your closets, right? Perfect. You don't need a half a million dollar check written out to your charity of choice to help someone (kudos to you if you do, though!). Maybe you have a few shirts you don't wear anymore or a few children's books you can bear to part with. The thing about giving a little is that when everyone gives a little, suddenly it turns into a lot. Be a part of that lot.

　　你收拾自己的衣櫥，對吧?很好。你不用非得寫一張50萬的支票捐給慈悲機構來贊助他人(但是如果你這樣做，那當然相稱好! )。也許你有幾件不再穿的襯衫，或有幾本能夠舍棄的童書。雖然只付出一點點，但當每個人都付出一點點時，就會聚沙成塔。來成為多的一局部吧。

　　4. Get in touch. Then listen.

　　堅持聯系，然后傾聽

　　Maybe a grandparent is chomping at the bit to hear about your adventures, or maybe an old friend had a really bad day, maybe your mom wishes you'd ring her up more often. Get on the line. You remember that your iPhone can make calls, right? Get in touch with those people that are dying to hear from you (because someone definitely is). Then, ask: How are you doing? What's new? These questions have such few syllables, but their depth is endless.

　　也許你的爺爺奶奶正急不可待地想聽你的歷險，也許一個老友過了蹩腳的一天，也許你的媽媽盼望你多給她打個電話。聯系他們吧。你還記得你的iPhone能打電話，對嗎?和那些很想和你接洽的人打個電話吧。而后問問：你怎么樣了?最近產生了什么事兒?固然這些問題只有多少個音節，但是這些問題的深度是無盡頭的。

　　5. Sort your problems.

　　把問題排序

　　Let's face it: There's a lot of bad stuff in the world. It can be a scary place, and we've all got problems we would be a whole lot happier without. But experiment with putting your problems into perspective -- or boxes: That breakup? Missing a really important deadline at work? Hurt feelings? Losing someone close to you? Probably worth some self-pity. That stain on your shirt? Not so much. Let go of what you can. The less negative, the more room there is to be happy.

　　讓咱們面對事實吧：世界上有良多不好的事情。它會讓人覺得恐慌。我們都有問題，要是不的話，會幸福地多。但是試一試用久遠的目光來看這些問題：分別?工作時錯過了主要的截止時光?受傷的感到?失去了親熱的人?或者值得自憐自哀。襯衫上的污漬?那就不值得了。能放手就撒手。負面因素越少，開心的空間就越大。

　　6. Give when you get.

　　當你得到時就給予

　　This is the best kind of multitasking! Whenever you get a little, give a little. There's a couple ways to pull this off: You can implement it yourself (donating an older shirt when you splurge for a new shirt, etc), or support companies that are passionate, good-hearted (really fun) do-gooders.Doesn't get much better than that, does it?

　　這是多義務的最好情勢!無論何時只要你得到了一點點，那就給予一點點�？梢杂性S多種方式：你可以自己去做(比方當你買了一件新襯衫時可以捐出一件舊襯衫)或支持有激情的公司、熱情腸的好人。還有什么比這更好的呢?

　　7. Stop comparing yourself to people you see on the Internet.

　　不要再跟互聯網上的人進行比擬

　　We all creep people's Instagram and Twitter feeds... and there's nothing wrong with wanting to be the best version of you. But you're you for a reason, and there's no one better at being you than you are! A little self-acceptance goes a long way. Your confidence will melt into other people and make them feel comfortable in their own skin too.

　　我們都愛好看別人在Instagram和推特上的內容…,想成為最好的自己也沒什么錯。但是你就是你，沒人比做你做得更杰出的了!一點點兒自我接收，就能走很遠。你的自信會逐步融入他人，讓他們也感到自負。

　　8. Use please and thank you.

　　用“請”和“謝謝”

　　Not to sound like your grandmother (go ahead and put your elbows on the table!), but the smallest ways to show your gratitude are these little words. They take zero effort to say, but the impact is huge. Aren't you thankful someone held the door for you when your hands were full? Tell them!

　　不是說聽起來要像你的奶奶(快點，把胳膊肘放到桌子上!)，但是表白你的感謝之情的最簡單的方法莫過于這些簡略的詞匯。說這些話又不吃力，然而影響卻是相稱大的。當你兩手滿滿，有人給你開門時，你不是很感激他們?告知他們!

　　9. Support someone else.

　　支撐他人

　　You know that friend who is trying to promote their new album, or start that business? You don't always have to chip in financially to be a backer -- you just have to believe in something! Lend your support when and where you can. Whether it's as simple as a retweet on Twitter or tossing a few extra bucks toward a worthy cause, show someone you believe in what they're doing. Not only will they be super-motivated, but they'll pass it on.

　　你曉得你的那個友人在宣揚他們的新唱片，或開了一家新公司?你不必每次都出資——你只要去信任他們!無論何時何地，只有你能輔助他們，就伸出你的手吧。無論是在推特上的一條轉發，仍是由于某個值得的起因投上一些錢，讓他們看看你相信他們做的事件。他們不僅僅會受到鼓勵，而且還會把這份正能量傳遞下去。

　　10. Chase what gets you up in the morning.

　　追趕你的夢想

　　What's the thing that lingers on your heart -- that you just can't stop daydreaming about? Do the thing you would do if you could do anything. It's called your passion. And it's what you should be doing.

　　什么貨色彷徨在你的心間——甚至于你老是在一直地去幻想它?假如你能為它做點兒事情，那就做吧。這就叫做豪情。這也是你應當去做的事情。

　　Sometimes, we treat chasing dreams like a fantasy -- it's easy to do, when things like money and rent and groceries and day jobs come into play. But you don't have to jump off the cliff solo: Start building your wings. Inch toward your dream. One foot in front of the other. Take the step. After all, it's your calling.

　　有時，我們把妄想看成是空想——當有錢、有房錢、有食品、有工作時很輕易去做。但是，你也不能不加籌備就跳下懸崖：你該先長出本人的翅膀。一點點地朝夢想湊近。一步一步地往前走。往前邁一步吧。究竟，這是你的使命。
