Things you can do right now(ish) to improve your happiness

可以提高幸福感的事

Forgive yourself

原谅自己

This one is really simple: Go easy on yourself. If you’re compassionate and supportive of other people, why shouldn’t you give yourself the same luxury?

这一点非常好办：对自己好一些。如果你能对他人怀有同理心，能给予他人支持，为什么不给自己同等的待遇呢?

This can be a difficult concept for those of us who tend to beat ourselves up over perceived failures, so our guide has an exercise you can use to practice. Write yourself a letter of compassion just as you would to a neighbor or friend who had experienced a hardship. The concept is the same, only the recipient is you.

这个概念，对我们这样喜欢在面对失败时对自己狠一些的人来说，或许有些难以理解。因此，我们的指南里有一个可以用来练习的活动。给自己写一封宽慰信吧，就像你会给一位经历困难的邻居或朋友写的那样。主旨是一样的，只不过收信人是你自己。
