As we start a new year - with one or more new years resolution... most of us will have considered what we do for work. If we are happy at work (where we spend so much of our time)... then some how life seems to come into flow.
当我们怀揣着一个或多个新目标开始新的一年——我们大多都会考虑我们可以为自己的工作做什么。如果我们能快乐地工作（毕竟我们花了那么多的时间在工作上），那么我们的生活也会随之变得更顺利。

1.Get Social
1.参加社交活动

One of the key indicators of happiness is having a strong social network, and the workplace is no exception. Why not offer to do the morning coffee run and take everyone’s order? That way you’ll get to know names and earn some goodwill points at the same time! Go for a walk at lunchtime with a couple of colleagues; start an office book club; or bring in homemade treats for the whole team. It doesn’t have to be a grand gesture, but put a little thought into how you might be able to connect and get the conversation flowing.
快乐的一个关键指标就是拥有一个良好的人际关系，在工作场所也不例外。为什么不问问你同事想要什么口味的咖啡并帮他们泡一杯呢？这样你不仅可以知道同事们的名字，同时还能获得他们的好感！午餐时间和同事们一起出去走走；成立一个办公室图书俱乐部；或者为你的团队带一些自制的小点心。这些动作不需要很夸张，只要你可以花一点心思，你就可以和同事们侃侃而谈。

2.Look For Chances To Excel
2.随时准备变得更优秀

Jump on the front-foot and seek out opportunities to challenge yourself professionally. Put your hand up for a new project, or think of an improvement or innovation for the business that you can pitch to management. Alternatively, ask your manager if there’s anything additional you can take on or assist with. Show initiative and you’ll be noticed for it.Being recognised, rewarded or acknowledged for this additional effort will make your experience of work all the richer.
随时准备让自己在专业上变得更优秀。着手进行一个新项目或者考虑如何对你的工作进行改善或者革新，以便更好地进行管理。又或者，问问你的经理，有没有什么你可以承担或者协助的额外工作。显示出你的主动性，老板会看到你的积极表现。

3.Ask For Change
3.勇于改变

Be proactive and courageous. If your job, or part of your job is making you unhappy, speak up and ask if you can change it. Don’t be resigned to your fate, and don’t feel guilty for standing up for what’s important to you. Often other people are simply far too wrapped up in their own reality to notice if you’re feeling unhappy in yours, so speaking up is key to enacting change. Let’s get one thing straight though - we’re not giving you permission to whinge in the kitchen or bathroom about a horrible project or annoying co-worker, but rather giving encouragement to speak up to the right people. You may be surprised to see how a little communication can make a big impact.
你要积极主动、勇敢无畏。如果你的工作，或者你工作的一部分内容让你不开心，那请说出来并且问问自己能否改变这种情况。不要顺从你的命运，不要因为你想要做自己觉得重要的事而心怀内疚。通常其他人由于太关注于自身，会忽视你正处在不快中的事实。所以说出你的不快正是进行改变的关键。说得明白点就是，你并不需要在厨房或者浴室抱怨你的项目有多糟或同事有多烦，而是要对正确的人说正确的话。你可能会震惊于一次小小的谈话能够产生的巨大影响。

4.Do Things For Others
4.帮助他人

Making other people happy is a sure fire way to create a little joy for yourself, and this applies to the office as much as anywhere else. Acknowledge the good work of a colleague or compliment a co-worker on their outfit. This strategy also means taking a step back from criticism. You can be as kind in what you choose not to say as well as what you do.
让他人快乐确实可以使我们自身也获得快乐。这个理论适用在任何地方，包括职场。你可以公开认同同事的工作优秀或者赞美他们的衣着。帮助他人也意味着不要抨击他人。当你说话做事的时候，请善待他人。
