每日口說挑戰 【The School of Life】悲觀的智慧 (The Wisdom of Pessimism)

今日挑戰句子

Happiness equals expectations over reality. So, there are two ways to ensure contentment. Change reality, or, change expectations. Pessimists know to reduce the expectations. Good pessimists rehearse some key lessons to themselves every day: Life generally goes wrong.

快樂等於對現實的期望。因此若想要感到滿足，就需改變現況、或是改變期望。悲觀的人會降低期待。而較樂觀的悲觀者則會天天說服自己：人生不如意，十之八九。
