Introduction 引言

I have often been asked by my students as well as by others who have read my books to collate the exercises that I present in my classes and writings. So here they are, in Even Happier.

我的学生和读者都经常要求我把课堂上讲的练习法集结成书。所以才有了这本《更幸福的方法》。

When I was a psychology student, the classes that had the most impact on my life were ones that encouraged—or required—us to apply the material we studied to our personal lives. Not only did I benefit from these classes, but by putting ideas into practice I also internalized and memorized the material a lot better than I ever did in classes that just taught theory. Engaging in reflection and action—what I have called “ReflAction”—brings theory to life. I have adopted the practice of reflaction in my academic classes and public workshops, and I recommend that all teachers and students in any field who are concerned with real learning do the same.

我还是个心理学学生的时候，印象最深的课堂就是那些鼓励—-或者要求—-我们可以把课堂学到的知识用在自己的生活中去的课程。不仅仅是在课堂上学到了知识，更重要的是将这些思想用在实践当中。通过实践去领会和记住的知识要远比仅仅在课堂上学到的知识要牢靠的多。参与到思考和行动中—-我把这称作思考—行动法—-让理论与生活相结合。在我的学术课堂以及公共的企业培训中，我都使用了这种思考—行动法，而且我推荐所有的老师和学生，无论是研究什么领域，都采用这样的方法。

This journal, which is a workbook or a playbook, can be used by individuals on their own as a guide and companion to help them apply to their daily lives the ideas of positive psychology that I discuss in Happier and The Pursuit of Perfect. The exercises can also be done jointly by a couple, with each holding the other accountable to the weekly or daily exercises, and then sharing ideas and feelings with one another. A group of people, as part of a book club, seminar, or workplace, can also embark together on the journey outlined in this book, and then get together once a week or once a month to discuss their insights and progress.

这本日记可以看做是一个练习册或者一个剧本。它可以作为一本指南手册帮助读者将我在《幸福的方法 Happier》和《追求完美 The Pursuit of Perfect》中论述的积极心理学观点付诸于个人日常生活当中。这些练习也适用于夫妻，两人可以互相对彼此每周或每日的练习进行跟踪负责，交换心得和感受。这些练习还适用于具有共同爱好的群体，比如书吧俱乐部会员，公司的员工等，他们可以定期（每周或者每月）聚一次会，讨论一下彼此的进步和交换一下心得。

There is room in the pages of this book for you to write in. However, I recommend that you keep a separate notebook or a dedicated file on your computer for further reflection. The space in this journal should not in any way constrain your thoughts and feelings. You can gain much value from following the process outlined in this book (directly responding to the questions I pose) as well as from free association (writing about whatever comes to mind or heart).

书中有一些空白页供你书写适用，然而，我建议 你再单独准备一个笔记本或者在电脑中新建一个文件夹，以便回头思考时使用。不要让书中的这些有限的空白束缚了你的想法和感受。实际上你可以通过书中提供的方法（直接对我设计的问题做出回应）以及很多自.由的联想（比如写下脑海中所想的所有事情。）获取到很多有价值的收获。

Doing the exercises in this book can, in the words of Harvard professor David Perkins, foster generative knowledge, “knowledge that does not just sit there but functions richly in people’s lives to help them understand and deal with the world.” Personally engaging students or readers in the material contributes to their experience, growth, retention, and depth of understanding. This is precisely what I hope you will attain as you journey through this journal.
Enjoy!

通过书中的练习，你可以，按照哈佛教授大卫裴肯的话说，学到有活力的知识，就是说“这种知识不是死知识，而是会对我们的生活产生丰富的影响，帮助我们更好地理解世界和处理与世界的关系。”以个人方式参与进来的学生或读者会丰富自己的经验，有助于个人成长，提高记忆力以及领悟力。这也恰恰是我希望你能在这本日记之旅中获得的东西。
希望你会喜欢。
