10分鐘就能學會的25條生活小貼士（上）
14. Build a network.
建立起交際網。
Become people's information source, and let them be yours. A former coworker might have gotten a new position at that company where you've always wanted to work. Go to them for a beer, and ask about the company. It's all about connections and information.
做別人的信息源，也讓別人成爲你的信息源。以前的同事可能在你心儀已久的公司裏找到了新工作。和他們一起喝一杯，然後詢問那個公司的情況。一切都是關於聯繫和信息。
15. If you are angry at the person in front of you who's driving like a grandmother ...
如果你對前面開車慢得像老太婆的人很生氣……
Pretend it is your grandmother — it will significantly reduce your road rage.
就當那個人是個老太婆吧——這能大大減輕你的路怒症。
16. Stand up straight.
站直。
No slouching, hands out of pockets, and head held up high. It's not just a cliche — you literally feel better and people around you feel more confident in you.
不要沒精打采的，把手從褲兜裏掏出來，把頭擡高。這不僅是陳詞濫調——你真的會覺得更好，你身邊的人也會對你有更多的信心。
17. Avoid saying "I think" and "I believe" unless absolutely necessary.
除了非說不可時，避免說“我覺得”和“我相信”。
These are phrases that do not evoke confidence, and will literally do you no good.
這些短語不能激發自信，對你不會有任何實質的益處。
18. When feeling anxious, clean up your home or work space.
覺得焦慮的時候，整理一下你的房子或者工作區域。
You will feel happier and more accomplished than before.
你會比以前感覺更加快樂和有成就感。
19. Always buy the first pitcher or round of drinks.
永遠買第一壺或者第一桶飲料。
You'd be surprised how long you can drink on the phrase "I bought the first one."
你能邊喝邊說：“我是第一個買的。” 你能說這句話的時間會長到讓自己驚奇。
20. Going into an interview ... be interested in your interviewers.
去面試的時候……對你的面試官感興趣。
If you focus on learning about them, you seem more interesting and dynamic. (Again, people love to talk about themselves.)
如果你重點放在瞭解他們，你會顯得自己更加有趣和有精力。（再說一次，人們喜歡談論自己。）
21. Pay attention, parents: Always give your kid a choice that makes them think they are in control.
父母們，注意了：總是給你的小孩選擇，讓他們覺得自己在控制事情。
For instance, when I want my son to put his shoes on, I say, "Do you want to put on your Star Wars shoes or your shark shoes?"
例如，當我想讓我兒子穿鞋時，我會問：“你是想穿上你那雙星球大戰的鞋子還是那雙鯊魚的鞋子？”
Pro-tip: In some cases, this works on adults.
進一步的小貼士：在某些情況下，這對成年人同樣有效。
22. Your actions affect your attitudes more than your attitudes affect your actions.
你的行爲影響你的態度，而不是你的態度影響你的行爲。
As my former teacher said, "You can jump and dance FOR joy, but you can also jump and dance yourself joyful."
就像我以前的老師說的：“你可以爲了開心去蹦蹦跳跳，但是你蹦蹦跳跳就能讓自己開心了。”
23. When a group of people laugh, people will instinctively look at the person they feel closest to in that group.
當一羣人笑的時候，人們會本能地去看那羣人中讓他們覺得最親近的人。
24. If you want to build rapport or gain someone's trust quickly, match their body posture and position.
如果你想要和某人建立起密切的關係，或者快速得到某人的信任，和他們的身體姿勢和位置保持一致。
If someone is sitting with her legs crossed, cross your legs. Matching body position is a subconscious way to tell if someone trusts you or is comfortable with you.
如果某人兩腿交叉地坐着，你也雙腿交叉。是否和別人的身體位置保持一致是一種判斷某人是否信賴你或者和你相處愉快的下意識的方式。
25. The Benjamin Franklin Effect.
本傑明·富蘭克林效應。
The pencil one may seem far-fetched, but I find the basis of it (the Benjamin Franklin effect) is very useful and extends far beyond pencil borrowing. This knowledge is useful in the world of flirting too.
鉛筆似乎對你來說有些遙遠，但是我發現它（本傑明·富蘭克林效應）的基礎是非常有用的，遠遠超過借鉛筆。這個知識在調情的世界裏也很有用。
Asking a girl in your class if you can borrow a pencil or to explain the homework will make her more likely to like you than if you let her borrow your stuff or are the one to help her. The best part is that it kills three birds with one stone: You get the advantages of the favor itself, the person subconsciously likes you more, and it makes them more open to future favors and conversation.
問你們班的一個女生借鉛筆或者讓她給你講作業，比你把東西借給她或者你幫助她，更有可能讓她喜歡上你。最好的一點就一石三鳥：你得到了幫助帶來的好處、幫你的人下意識地更加喜歡你了，而且這件事讓他們更有可能在未來繼續幫助你或者和你交談。
小編注：【本傑明·富蘭克林效應的故事】本傑明·富蘭克林曾表示，通過向一個不喜愛他的議員借書，他們倆最終成爲了要好的朋友。認知失調理論的解釋爲，如果我們去幫助一個不喜歡的人，結果說不定就會喜歡上他—— 當我們給予不喜歡的人幫助時，其實是經歷了一種失調，我們的行爲和對此人的態度之間發生了矛盾。爲了緩解這種失調，我們會盡力說服自己這個人是好的、值得幫助的，從而注意並強調了其優點，而淡化了自己本來不喜愛他的事實。
