  What keeps us healthy and happy as we go through life? If you were going to invest now in your future best self, where would you put your time and your energy? There was a recent survey of millennials asking them what their most important life goals were, and over 80 percent said that a major life goal for them was to get rich. And another 50 percent of those same young adults said that another major life goal was to become famous.

  在我们的人生中 是什么让我们保持健康且幸福呢? 如果现在你可以 为未来的自己投资 你会把时间和精力投资在哪里呢? 最近在千禧一代中有这么一个调查 问他们生活中最重要的目标是什么 超过80%的人说 最大的生活目标就是要有钱 还有50%的年轻人说 另一个重要的生活目标 就是要出名

  

  And we're constantly told to lean in to work, to push harder and achieve more. We're given the impression that these are the things that we need to go after in order to have a good life. Pictures of entire lives, of the choices that people make and how those choices work out for them, those pictures are almost impossible to get. Most of what we know about human life we know from asking people to remember the past, and as we know, hindsight is anything but 20/20. We forget vast amounts of what happens to us in life, and sometimes memory is downright creative.

  而且我们总是被灌输 要投入工作,要加倍努力 要成就更多。 我们被灌输了这样一种观念, 只有做到刚才说的这些 才能有好日子过。 要人们纵观整个人生, 想象各种选择, 以及这些选择最终导致的结果, 几乎是不可能的。 关于人的一生,我们能了解到的, 大部分都是通过人的回忆得来, 但众所周知,大部分都是事后诸葛。 一生中,我们会忘记很多发生过的事情, 而且记忆常常不可靠。

  

  But what if we could watch entire lives as they unfold through time? What if we could study people from the time that they were teenagers all the way into old age to see what really keeps people happy and healthy?

  但如果我们可以从头到尾地 纵观人的一生呢? 如果我们可以跟踪研究一个人, 从他少年时代开始 一直到他步入晚年, 看看究竟是什么让人们 保持快乐和健康呢?

  

  We did that. The Harvard Study of Adult Development may be the longest study of adult life that's ever been done. For 75 years, we've tracked the lives of 724 men, year after year, asking about their work, their home lives, their health, and of course asking all along the way without knowing how their life stories were going to turn out.

  我们做到了。 哈佛大学(进行的)这项 关于成人发展的研究, 可能是同类研究中耗时最长的。 在75年时间里, 我们跟踪了724个人的一生, 年复一年,了解他们的工作、 家庭生活、健康状况, 当然,在这一过程中, 我们完全不知道他们的人生 将走向何方。

  

  ……

  

  We've learned three big lessons about relationships. The first is that social connections are really good for us, and that loneliness kills. It turns out that people who are more socially connected to family, to friends, to community, are happier, they're physically healthier, and they live longer than people who are less well connected. And the experience of loneliness turns out to be toxic. People who are more isolated than they want to be from others find that they are less happy, their health declines earlier in midlife, their brain functioning declines sooner and they live shorter lives than people who are not lonely. And the sad fact is that at any given time, more than one in five Americans will report that they're lonely.

  关于人际关系,我们得到三大结论。 第一,社会关系对我们是有益的, 而孤独寂寞有害健康。 我们发现,那些跟家庭成员更亲近的人, 更爱与朋友、与邻居交往的人, 会比那些不善交际、离群索居的人, 更快乐,更健康,更长寿。 孤独寂寞是有害健康的。 那些“被孤立”的人, 跟不孤单的人相比, 往往更加不快乐, 等他们人到中年时,健康状况下降更快, 大脑功能下降得更快, 也没那么长寿。 可惜的是,长久以来, 每5个美国人中就至少 有1个声称自己是孤独的。
