You are able to predict longevity — who will be alive and who will not be.
你能预测谁会长寿——谁还活着，谁已经去世了
Now when I look at this data and there's a lot more data on longevity, on health, on well-being, I said to myself, "Wow. So this is fantastic!
现在我看这些资料，还有很多关于长寿，身体健康等资料，我觉得"太棒了"
Benefit finding really works! Being an optimistic is good!"
"积极心态真的很有用，当乐观主义者真好"
And I have two questions then, "Why isn't everyone optimistic?"
但我有两个问题 "为什么不是每个人都是乐观主义者?"
If we become happier, if we become healthier, why not, why aren't we all optimistic? That's the first question.
如果我们能更幸福更健康，为什么我们不都去做乐观主义者？这是第一个问题
The second question is: alright, so I want to be more optimistic. How do I become that?
第二个问题是，如果我想当乐观主义者。我该怎么做?
So first one: why aren't more people optimistic? Second: how do I become opticmistic?
第一个问题:为什么不是人人都是乐观主义者？第二个:怎么变成乐观主义者?
I am going to answer these two questions. Let me begin with the first.
我会回答这两个问题。先来看第一个问题
One of the main reasons why there aren't more people who are optimistic is that optimists are considered detached.
为什么乐观主义者这么少的主要原因是我们认为乐观主义是不切实际
And how do we know that? Well, or what leads to the sense of detachment, to the notion that optimists are detached?
我们怎么知道？谁让我们觉得这是不切实际，谁让我们觉得乐观主义者不切实际
It's mostly the media. Because what do we see? We mostly see hatred.
最主要是媒体。我们在媒体上都看到什么？仇恨
We mostly see blood shed. We mostly see unhappiness. We see terrorism.
流血，不幸福。恐怖主义
