Psychologists in America have shown

Psychologists in America have shown that writing about our dreams for the future can help us become happier. They asked people to write about their future - for 20 minutes a day for four days - imagining that everything had turned out well and all their dreams were realized. People that did so were more likely to feel immediately happier (than people writing about other neutral things) and this effect lasted for several weeks. They even felt better physically too.

But isn't this just fantasyland? Are we just setting people up for disappointment? Well it seems not. For those for whom this action worked, it helped them identify what was really important in their life - what they really valued. They weren't just writing a list or daydreaming - they were describing in detail their vision of the future for themselves. They were then able to identify specific goals to work towards. It seemed to help make them feel that it was in their control to work towards the things they wanted.

美国的心理学家已经证明，写关于我们的未来的梦想可以帮助我们变得更快乐。他们请人写关于他们的未来一天20分钟四天想象，一切都变好了，他们所有的梦想都实现。人们也更可能马上感到快乐（比人写一些中性的东西），这种影响持续了几个星期。他们甚至感到身体好了太多。

但这不正是梦境？我们只是人失望了？似乎没有。那些人，这一行动工作，它帮助他们确定什么是真正重要的在其生命的真正价值。他们不只是写一个列表或做白日梦-他们详细描述他们理想中的自己的未来。他们能够识别特定的目标努力。这似乎让他们觉得这是他们的控制朝着他们想要的东西。
