Many people think that when they become rich and successful，happiness will naturally follow。Let me tell you that nothing is further from the truth。The world is full of very rich people who are as miserable as if they were living in hell。We have read stories about movie stars who committed suicide or died from drugs。Quite clearly，money is not the only answer to all problems。

許多人認為當他們富有，取得

成功時

，幸福自然就會隨之而來。我告訴你：事實並非如此。世界上有很多富人，但是他們卻很痛苦，猶如生活在地獄中一樣。我們都讀過影星自殺或死於吸毒的故事。顯而易見，錢不是解決所有問題的答案。

Wealth obtained through dishonest means does not bring happiness。Lottery winnings do not bring happiness。Gamble winnings do not bring happiness。To my mind，the secret to happiness lies in your successful work。There is no use saying in your contribution towards others’ happiness and in your wealth you have earned through your own honest effort。

透過不正當手段獲得的財富並不能帶來幸福。抽到獎券也不會帶來幸福；賭博也不會帶給你幸福。在我看來，幸福的秘密在於要有成功的工作。透過帶給別人幸福和誠實的努力而獲得的幸福才是真正的幸福。

If you obtain wealth through luck or dishonest means，you will know that it is ill earned money。If you get your money by taking advantage of others or by hurting others，you will not be happy with it。You will think you are a base person。

如果你是透過運氣或是不誠實的手段而獲得錢財，你會知道那並不是辛苦掙來的錢；如果透過利用別人或是傷害別人而獲得錢財，你不會因此高興。你會認為自己是個卑鄙的人。

Long-term happiness is based on honesty，productive work，contribution，and self-esteem。Happiness is not an end；it is a process。It is a continuous process of honest，productive work which makes a real contribution to others and makes you feel you are a useful，worthy person。

長期的幸福是建立在誠實，有成果的工作，貢獻和自尊的基石上的。幸福並不是終點，而是種過程。那是一個持續地透過誠實，有成就的工作為他人奉獻的過程，這樣做也會讓你感到自己是一個有用的且有價值的人。

As Dr Wayne wrote，“There is no way to happiness。Happiness is the way。”Someday when I achieve these goals，when I get a car，build a house and own my own business，then I will be really happy。If you wait for certain things to happen and depend on external circumstances of life to make you happy，you will always feel unfulfilled。There will always be something missing。

正如韋恩博士所說的那樣：“沒有哪條路能通向幸福。幸福本身就是那條路。”有天當我實現這些目標時，當我買一輛汽車，建一所房子，創立自己的生意時，那時我才是真正幸福的。如果你等待某些事情的發生或依靠生活的外部環境來讓你自己感到幸福，你總也不會感到滿足。總會有些事與你失之交臂。
