Essential Habits of Positive People

积极的人的基本习惯

For the positive person, the past stays in the past.

对于积极的人来说，过去只停留在过去。

Good and bad memories alike stay where they belong–in the past where they happened.

好的和坏的记忆都停留在它们所属的地方——在它们发生的过去。

They don’t spend much time pining for the good ol’days because they are too busy making new memories now.

他们不会花太多时间去怀念美好的过去，因为他们现在正忙于创造新的回忆。

The negative pulls from the past are used not for self-flagellation or unproductive regret, but rather productive regret where they use lessons learned as stepping stones towards a better future.

来自过去的消极情绪不是用来自我鞭笞或无益的后悔，而是有用的后悔，他们把学到的教训当作通向更美好未来的垫脚石。
