【英语早间课堂】当生活艰难时-减少欲望(7)

When life gets rough 生活艰难时

 

Let go of desire

 

减少欲望

 

 

Most people live with "attached mind."What this means is that they attach themselves to a desire, and when they don't get it, their emotions plummet¹ into negativity.

 

 

Instead, try to practice "detached mind." That means that when you want something, you will still be happy whether you get it or not.

 

 

Your emotions remain happy or neutral.

vi.(价格、水平等)骤然下跌；n.铅坠；重压物
