226We begin to understand why MVIs play such an important role in our overall well-being我们开始理解为什么MVI在我们的整体福祉中扮演如此重要的角色
227Here is an example of how a seemingly举个例子来说明
228Insignificant event can set off an upward spiral with meaningful consequences重大事件可能引发螺旋上升,产生有意义的后果
229So imagine you walk into the office in the morning and the first colleague you see says wow想象一下你早上走进办公室 你见到的第一位同事说

257reflecting on what we're grateful for想想我们感激什么
258Improves our overall happiness改善我们的幸福
259How successful we are and even our physical health?我们身体健康有多成功?
260How does such a small intervention make such a big difference because focusing on what's going?这么小的干预,怎么会因为专注于事情的发展而产生这么大的改变呢?
261Well puts us in a better mood and that mood makes it more likely that we'll take positive actions这样我们就能有更好的心情 更有可能采取积极行动
262Which then further elevate our mood and so on in a self-reinforcing然后在自我增强中 进一步提升我们的心情等等
263Upward spiral just as a single stone creates ripples across a pond or a向上螺旋 就像一块石头 形成波纹穿过一个池塘或一个
264single candle can light up an entire dark room a single moment can positively shape an单一的蜡烛可以点亮整个黑暗的房间 一瞬间就能形成一个正面的形状
265Entire day and because emotions are contagious一整天,因为情感是传染性的
266These effects don't stop with us our mood influences the people around us这些影响不会影响我们周围的人
267When we're in a good mood that energy tends to spread creating additional ripples of当我们心情好的时候 能量会扩散 产生更多的波纹

274You get a little more done feel slightly better and that leads to more positive你得到的更多 稍稍好一点, 这导致更积极的
275Experiences by the time you get home you're more likely to go out with friends than collapse in front of the TV回家后的经验 和朋友约会的可能性比在电视前倒闭还大
276Which is what you might have done if your mood had remained low.如果你的心情保持低调,你可能会这么做。
277There is something both两者都有
278reassuring and令人欣慰
279Empowering in realizing that we have some control over our well-being and that even brief赋予我们权力,使我们认识到,我们对自身福祉有某种控制,而且这种控制甚至短暂
280Accessible actions can shift the direction of a moment or an entire day可利用的行动可以改变一瞬间或一整天的方向
281The fact that this control is at least in part internal is itself a source of positivity这种控制至少部分是内部的,这本身就是一种肯定性的来源。
