给予肯定。如果你欣赏别人的某一品质，那就加以赞美吧。确保这是来自你的内心，否则会显得不真诚。

帮别人拿东西。如果你看到一个老人费力地拿着东西或杂物，可以主动去帮他们拿。你可以帮他们把包提到他们的车里。如果你和他们住在同一个小区里，你可以把他们送到门口。

把家收拾干净。如果你和室友或另一半住在一起，不用他们加以提醒，就把家里收拾干净并做完所有的家务。
Offer to babysit. If someone you know has been looking like they need some time off, offer to babysit their kids so they can take a night off to enjoy.

Smile at a stranger in the elevator. Oftentimes, we have too many things on our mind and we forget about the little courtesies. Smile and say "hi" to a stranger in the elevator, because it’s nice to be acknowledged.
在电梯里对陌生人微笑。有时，我们头脑里的事情太多了，都忘记了细小的礼节。在电梯里对陌生人微笑并打招呼吧，因为被人认可的感觉很不错。
Pick up litter. Be good to the environment and help to pick up litter while you’re walking home. You can pick it up with a plastic bag so you won’t dirty your hands.
捡垃圾。 爱护环境，在回家的路上顺便捡捡垃圾。你可以用塑料袋捡，这样就不会弄脏你的手。

Forgive someone. If someone has wronged you in the past, try your best to forgive them and to just let it go. Doing so is a nice thing to do for yourself and for those closest to you as well. Resenting someone may cause you to vent your frustrations to other people, which spreads your negativity.
原谅他人。如果有人过去做了对不起你的事，尽量原谅他们并放手。这样做不仅对你来说是件好事，对亲近你的人们也是好事儿。怨恨他人可能会导致你向他人发泄，那样会传播负面情绪的。
