How to Find Happiness Without Buying It
如何不花钱就能找到乐子
Our materialistic society has led us to believe that happiness cannot be obtained without having money.
在这个物质社会，我们深信没有钱就没有幸福感。
Rather than learning to be satisfied with what we have, we are taught to want more. We learn from advertising, and from the media, that we need to buy trinkets and toys in order to make ourselves happy, or to fulfill emotional needs, and that the purchases they are trying to talk us into will provide us with the psychological comfort we are looking for.
我们不断的奢望得到更多而不是学着满足我们现有的。通过广告和媒体，我们了解到为了让自己开心，为了满足心理需求，我们需要买一些小玩意儿和玩具，仿佛买了这些东西我们就能找到一直想要的心理安慰。
Unfortunately, as a society we have bought into these misguided messages and have come to believe that spending money on certain items will bring us fame, fortune, happiness, beauty, or popularity. We end up using money as a crutch to provide us with something we ultimately must find within ourselves. As we become caught up in this charade, we trade precious hours of our lives trying to earn the money we have been taught to covet so much.
不幸的是我们还是会被这些信息误导并且开始相信花钱买一些东西会带给我们带来声誉，运气，快乐，美丽或者名气。我们不断拿金钱作为靠山，得到最终想要的东西。一次一次我们深陷其中，于是，为了买到我们垂涎已久的东西，我们用宝贵的时间辛苦赚钱。 We trade hours of our lives working, sacrificing time that could have been spent with our families, for the pursuit of the almighty dollar. 我们把生命中的每时每刻拿来工作，牺牲我们本该和家人在一起的时间，只为了追求万能的美元。
In order to find true happiness, we first must learn to change our attitudes about money. We must learn that money, and the spending of it, provides only a temporary relief but does not present us with any real long lasting benefits. We end up owning something we either do not really want or do not really need, and the underlying emotional issues remain.
为了找到真正的快乐，我们必须首先改变对待金钱的态度。我们必须要知道花掉挣到的钱只是让我们暂时舒坦，却并不能带来任何持久的利益。最后我们拥有一些实际上我们根本不想要或根本不需要的东西，而内在的情感问题依然没有解决。
Rather than focus on the temporary satisfaction you may feel from spending money, try the following to bring you happiness without it.
与其通过花钱让自己得到一时的满足感，不如试试下面几招让你不用花钱买就感到快乐：
Imagine Having no Money 假想自己分文没有
Imagine what you would do for happiness if you had no money at all. Think about how you would spend your time, and what you would do for enjoyment. Change your focus from material possessions to other things that bring you enjoyment, such as spending quality time with your family and friends. Rather than focusing on the accumulation of possessions, concentrate instead on playing with or reading to your children, or spending time out enjoying nature.
想象一下如果你一分钱没有做什么会感到快乐。想一下没钱的你将如何打发时间，如何找乐子。把焦点从物质层面的东西转移到能让你快乐的其他事上，比如，陪家人朋友一起度过休闲时光。多和你的孩子玩耍或者给孩子朗读或者出去亲近大自然，而不是专注于积累财富。
Want What you Already Have 满足你所拥有的
Society teaches us to want what others have. Instead, shift your thinking so that you are satisfied with, or want, what is already yours. What tends to happen is once we reach our goals in terms of owning personal possessions, we trade those old goals in for a set of new ones that involves bigger, better, and grander objects.
社会教会我们追逐潮流，别人有什么，我们就追求什么。然而，我们不应该真这么做，而是对于我们已经拥有的东西感到知足。往往我们一旦达到目标就会制定一堆新的更大更好的目标。
Goals are good to have because they motivate us to work, and to continue to strive for self improvement. The key is to find a balance between having worthy goals and recognizing when we are allowing the desire for possessions to overwhelm the importance of other aspects of our lives. Rather than constantly striving for things we do not have, we need to shift our focus to being thankful for the things we already possess.
有目标是好的，因为目标让我们的工作更有积极性，让我们不断改进。而关键是我们要找到一个平横点，不仅能让我们的目标有价值，还要让我们不能因为对物质的欲望而忽视了生活其它方面的重要性。我们应该感谢那些我们已经拥有的，而不是不断追求我们没有的。 Volunteer Your Time 把你的时间贡献出来
One way to appreciate what you have is to work with others who have nothing, or who have disabilities that no amount of money can overcome. Volunteering time to work in a food bank, or to work with underprivileged children, can really alter your perspective on where you are in life, and can create a deeper appreciation for the gifts you do have in your life.

看到这个问题，身为一名英专生，同时比较喜欢赚钱的人，我可有一定的发言权了。
那英专生可做哪些线上兼职呢？
何为线上听说读写译呢，就是英语专业学生的基本功，通过这五个字，听说读写译，你可以找到很多线上兼职。
与听有关的，例如英文音频转写，英文歌词转写，英文视频字幕转写等。英文音频转写一般是给你音频加辅助视频，将所听到的句子写下来，同时对应说话的人，这个项目我之前做过，是按照音频转写正确的时间长短来算，大约一小时100元，非常适合英语听力好的人。
与说有关的，例如英文配音，英文朗读等。我所了解的英文配音是在一些平台，如喜马拉雅听力，对一些英文片段进行配音，如果你的声音好听而且口语特棒，就可以试试这份线上兼职。
与读有关的，例如英文广播朗读，美文朗读等。也是通过读一些文章来赚钱，需要有感情，有语调，口语也不错，这对于英语专业口语棒的人很有利。英语专业主要就是通过说和读来展现自己，通过这种线上兼职能够锻炼自己的能力。
与写有关的，例如英文写作，给广告公司写广告词，编辑之类的。这需要写作能力好，且时间充足，完成任务快的人，当然这种兼职多需要出示一下你的专四专八证，以及证明你写作能力的文章，不过通过后，薪资还是挺高的。
最后与译有关的，即线上翻译。一般一些诸如有道等线上平台或者一些公司会找一些翻译水平不错的学生来翻译，审核，领域会涉及医疗，游戏，工程类，专有名词较多，对翻译人员要求较高，但是工资可观，而且按字收费，多劳多得，不过也需要勤快的人。
由于疫情原因，线下家教少了很多，但这却是线上家教崛起的时候。有很多平台，例如圆龟家教平台，也招线上家教，上面标有学历要求，以及求职要求，有教学能力和经验的老师可以尝试一下，语数外地化生，各科线上教导，按课时计资，这种线上家教既能锻炼英语专业英语能力，也能满足自己不出门也能赚钱的愿望，一举两得。
最后，我想说，线上兼职有多种，要找到适合自己的，同时也要有辨别能力，有些人会打着兼职的名号，骗学生的钱，任何提前收取报名费的都是骗人的，不靠谱的，不要因为赚钱而丢了钱。
最後放縦
英专生可以做的线上兼职有很多，具体如下：
1、口语很好的同学还可以去做一些线上英语文章的朗读或者翻译，一般一篇的薪资在30元左右，这个工作一次拿钱不算多，但是贵在坚持或者偶尔想赚点小钱打打牙祭也是可以的。
需要注意的是一定要根据自己的英语口语水平，先选择比较简单的进行训练，要循序渐进，可由一两句开始，听完后用自己的话(英语)把所听到的内容说出来，在刚开始练习时，因语言表达能力、技巧等方面原因，往往复述接近于背诵，但在基础逐渐打起来后，就会慢慢放开，由"死"到"活"。这样更能提高自己的英语水准，对自己做线上英语文章的朗读或者翻译也有好处。
2、线上英语辅导或者英语家教，适合长期某一固定时间段有空的，这类工作薪资相对稳定而且较高。
但是一般要求相应的学历、资质、教学能力、教学经验、授课方式、沟通能力、通识能力等，缺一不可。
3、线上英文编辑。这个工作需具备一定的英语相关专业资历并且要求能够熟练使用英语撰写或者更改文章。每天都能按时工作，时间你可以自己安排，但是每天都要大概1.5时左右，3~5篇左右的文章任务。需要能坚持，有持之以恒的毅力的同学。个人认为外语专业和外贸专业比较合适。当然，有能力者居之。
4、线上英语推广兼职。需要非常好的英语功底，主要负责欧美以及亚太地区的推广任务。撰写文章，当然是英语的。同时，最好要会使用代理工具，因为需要在世界各地的网站查找信息，比如Facebook。

为梦想而活
If you want success in business or in life, you need to start living your life based on your dreams, not your circumstances. The most successful people in the world know that the place in life you have right now isn’t a place you need to stay.
如果你想要在生意上或生活上取得成功,你要让梦想而不是环境成为你生活的动力。世界上绝大多数的成功人士都明白这样一个道理:人不能被一时的境况羁绊住前进的脚步。
Before becoming a box office superstar, Jim Carrey was homeless and lived in his car. He now is one of the most famous actors in Hollywood.
在成为一名票房明星之前,金·凯瑞无家可归,只能住在汽车里。如今,他已是好莱坞万众瞩目的演员之一。
J.K. Rowling, the author of the successful Harry Potter series, was divorced, unemployed and living on welfare before she published her first book. It’s now said that she has more money than the queen of England.
《哈利·波特》系列丛书的作者J.K.罗琳,在出版自己的第一本书之前正承受着离婚和失业的痛苦,只能靠福利金生活。但据说现在她比英国女王还要富有。
So what does all this have to do with you? Both the two people come from unpleasant circumstances. duanwenw.com Their lives were so hard that it would have been extremely easy for them to give up their dreams. But your circumstances don’t make you who you are, and no situation lasts forever. If you want success, you need to start living and thinking as if you were successful. That doesn’t mean spending money you don’t have, but it does mean walking with your head up and presenting yourself as a positive, motivated and successful person.
但是,这些和你有什么关系呢?这两个人都来自窘困的环境。他们都曾生活艰难,放弃梦想对他们来说易如反掌。但是,当前的境况不能决定你的人生,没有任何一种境况会持续永久。如果你想成功,你就要开始像一个成功的人一样生活和思考。这并不意味着你要去挥霍你原本就不拥有的金钱,而是应该抬起头走路,以积极、进取和成功的姿态展现自己。
Nobody wants to be in business with a negative person with no confidence. duanwenw.com When you start living the life you want instead of the life you are accepting, everything starts changing for the better.
没有人愿意和态度消极而缺乏信心的人共事。当你开始过你想要的生活而非你所接受的生活时,一切都会向好的方向转变。
Success is something anyone can have. Start living as if you’re going to be one of the successful people, and soon you will be!
任何人都可以获得成功。像一个成功人士一样生活,不久你也会成为一个成功的人!
跃动的生命
As an introduction to a blog says, life can be poor and life can be lonely, but what we can never lose is the beating heart of life itself.
诚如一篇博客的引言所说,生活可能会贫穷,生命可能会孤独,但是,我们永远不可能失去的是生命本身所具有的一颗跃动的心。
Everyone is busy these days, driven to get somewhere —but do they know where? Something important falls by the wayside as they rush, and then they begin to complain about a boring and mechanical* life with no vitality or newness, but we are the producers of our own lives. If our lives are poor or lonely, we’ve made them so ourselves, and can change them.
现在的人们整天都忙得不亦乐乎,被驱使到这儿到那儿——但是他们知道要去哪儿吗?当他们驾车飞驰而过的时候,某些重要的东西却被遗忘在路旁了,于是,他们开始抱怨生活枯燥呆板,缺少活力和新意。但是,我们才是生活的创造者。如果,生活贫穷而孤独,那是我们自己创造了这样的生活,我们可以去改变它们。
Figure out what you’re really interested in doing, and do it. Call your friends and family every day; go out for walks; go climbing; do some sports. duanwenw.com Eat in clean and quiet restaurants with your best friends, or go to cafes with them to chat whenever you’re in the mood. Arrange your room in the way that pleases you, write down your feelings and experiences, or buy a vase and put some flowers in it. Spend an afternoon reading your favorite magazines, without doing anything else.
先搞清楚自己对什么事情真正感兴趣,然后再去做。每天给亲朋好友打个电话,出去散散步,爬爬山,做做运动。心情好的时候,和最要好的朋友去干净又清静的餐馆吃吃饭,或者去咖啡馆聊聊天。随心随性地整理一下自己的房间,记录下自己的情感和经历,或者买一个花瓶,在里面插满鲜花。花一下午的时间去读几本最爱的杂志,不去做任何其他的事情。
Of course, there is a lot to do, but we shouldn’t let our busyness get the better of us. We should try to live for ourselves, like human beings, not like machines.
当然,还有很多事情可以去做,但是我们不能让忙碌占据我们的心灵。我们应该为自己而活,像一个人那样地去生活,而不是像机器一样。
It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing1.It doesn’t interest me how old you are.
你以什么为生我不感兴趣。我想知道的是你因什么而痛苦,你是否敢于梦想去满足内心的渴望。
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for your dreams and for the adventure of being alive.
你的年龄我不感兴趣。我想知道的是你是否甘当傻瓜去追求梦想和经历生活的惊险刺激。
I want to know if you can sit down with pain without moving to hide it.
我想知道你是否能忍受痛苦而不是避开它,躲着它。
I want to know if you can be with joy, if you can dance with wildness, and if you can let happiness fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes. duanwenw.com Are you someone who doesn’t care about being careful, being realistic or remembering the limitations of being a human?
我想知道你是否快乐,是否能狂舞一曲,让快乐充溢你的全身。你是一个不关心是否谨慎、是否现实或牢记人性局限的人吗?
It doesn’t interest me if the story you’re telling me is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself and if you can bear the blame of betrayal2 and not betray your own soul.
你说的是真是假我不感兴趣。我想知道的是你是否为了忠实于自己而敢于令他人失望,是否敢于承担背叛的骂名而不愿违背良心,是否能做到诚实可靠从而值得信赖。
I want to know if you can be faithful, and therefore trustworthy.I want to know if you can see beauty on the ugliest of days. I want to know if you can live with failure and still stand on the edge of a lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, "Yes!" It doesn’t interest me where you have studied.
我想知道你是否能在最糟糕的时候懂得欣赏美，我想知道你是否愿意接受失败并仍然敢于站在湖边对着银色的满月大声回答"是"。
I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else fails. I want to know if you can be alone with yourself, and if you truly like the company you keep in your emptiest moments.
你学到什么我不感兴趣。我想知道的是当一切消逝之后是什么在内心支撑着你,你是否能够独自面对自己,是否真正喜欢你在空虚的时刻结交的伙伴。
