三个小秘诀，让你的快乐生活来得更容易

2. IT'S OK TO ASK FOR HELP.

2. 请求帮助是没有问题的。

You may understand this idea in principle, but welcoming it into your life as a practice is a real game-changer. And yet, asking for help is something that many adults -- including Rubin -- have a hard time doing.

你可能也大概明白这个道理，而真正在生活中贯彻它会让一切都变得不一样。但是，请求帮助对很多人(包括鲁宾)来说都不是件容易的事。

"I don't understand why I struggle with this so much," she says. "It's OK to ask for help. And usually when you ask for help, you get help. Things get easier when you ask for help."

“我不明白为什么这对我来说这么难，”她说。“请求帮助是没有问题的，而且通常只要你开口，别人都会帮你的，这样一切都会变得更轻松。”

3. HAPPINESS DOESN'T ALWAYS MAKE YOU FEEL HAPPY.

3. 快乐不会总是让你感到快乐。

Strange, but true, Rubin says. As an example of this, she points to a story from a man who had been spending a lot of time at the bedside of his very sick father.

鲁宾说，这很奇怪，但却是事实。她举了一个人的例子，这个人花了很多时间陪伴卧病在床的父亲。

"His father had been a terrible father, so they didn't have a loving relationship. It was no fun to go to the hospital. And [the son] was saying, 'I don't know why I'm doing this,'" Rubin says. "Well, he wanted to be a good son. So, in one way, it was making him happy because he was being a good son."
