6. Meditate regularly
Self-realization has been shown to have many benefits and this can be achieved by regularly practicing mindfulness meditation.
What you can do right now:
Download the no-nonsense Headspace meditation app. All you need is 10 minutes and a comfortable chair. If you find yourself thinking you don't have 10 minutes, then let the truth of Tony Robbins' words settle in: "If you don't have 10 minutes, you don't have a life."
6. 經常冥想
自我反思已被證明有許多好處，這可以通過定期練習心靈冥想來實現。
你現在能做什麼？：
下載有意義的冥想應用。你只需要10分鐘和一張舒適的椅子。如果你發現自己沒有10分鐘的時間，那就記住託尼.羅賓斯的的話：“如果你連10分鐘都沒有，你就沒有真正的人生。”

7. Chang your attitude to gratitude
Practicing gratitude can help you shift your focus from being sad about the things you don't have in your life to being glad for the things you do have.
What you can do right now:
a)Start a habit of writing down three things you are grateful for each day.
b)Regularly write a thank you card to someone you appreciate or to someone who has done something recently for you.
c)Inject things you are thankful for in your daily conversations instead of focusing on negative topics.
7. 改變你對感恩的態度
感恩可以幫助你把注意力從因爲你沒有擁有而感到悲傷轉移到你----對所擁有的感到幸福。
你現在能做什麼？：
a)養成每天記下你每天感激的三件事的習慣。
b)定期向你欣賞的人或是最近爲你做過某事的人寫一張感謝卡。
c)在日常對話中加入你所感激的事情，而不是專注於消極話題。

8. Create better habits
If your habits are not making you healthier and happier, that means you may be automatically spending almost half your day doing things that make you more unhappy.
8. 養成更好的習慣
如果你的習慣並沒有使你更健康、更快樂，那就意味着你一天可能會自動花掉你一半的時間去做一些讓你更不快樂的事情。

9. Learn how to predict happiness more accurately
What you can do right now:
Reach out to people that are living the lifestyle you want or possess something you want to have; get on a call with them, or take them out for coffee. Ask about their experiences, both good and bad, and observe if what they have makes them happier, and then decide if it is something you want as well.
9. 學習如何更準確地預測幸福
你現在能做什麼？：
接觸那些生活有你想要生活或擁有你想要的東西的人；和他們打個電話，喝個咖啡。詢問他們的經歷，包括好的和壞的，觀察他們擁有的是否，然後再決定這是不是你也想要的。

10. Treat yourself with compassion to boost your self-esteem
What you can do right now:
a)Treat yourself as you would be your own child.
b)Practice non-judgmental mindfulness (i.e. meditation, yoga) to quiet your inner-critic.
c)Remind yourself of the fact that you are not alone.
d)Give yourself permission to be imperfect.
10. 用同情心來提升你的自尊心
你現在能做什麼？
a)對待自己就像對待自己的孩子一樣。
b)練習非評判性的正念（即冥想、瑜伽）來平息內心的批評。
c)提醒自己其實你並不孤單。
d)允許自己不完美。
