Original Text
Pay Attention to the Words You Habitually Use.
A word of caution: select your words wisely. There are so many ways to describe something, and each one will alter how you feel about it. For example, if you lose your wallet, you probably won't be too happy about it. Imagine telling your friend, "I'm so angry I could tear somebody to shreds!" That would make you angrier than you originally were. Imagine instead that you said, "I'm a little upset about it." You wouldn't feel as bad, would you? So, use less intense words when things upset you. On the other hand, you can use this technique for positive things, too. If you had some great pasta, you could say, "That penne was out of this world!" You'd feel even better than if you had said, "That penne was pretty good." This holds true for any language you're using, too. Remember, the stronger your language, the stronger you feel. Therefore, you should be very careful with the words you habitually use.
Translation
留心你习惯会用的措辞
给你一个提醒：明智地选择你的措辞。描述一件事情的方式有很多种，而每一种说法都会影响你对这件事的感受。例如你的钱包掉了，你大概不会太高兴。想像你告诉朋友：“我气到想把人碎尸万段！”这样的措辞会让你比原本还要更加生气。想像一下，如果反而你是说：“我有点不开心。”你感觉就没有那么难受，对吧？所以，当有事情让你不高兴时，试著用没那么激烈的字眼。另一方面，这个技巧也能用在正面的事情。像是你吃到很美味的义大利面，你可以说：“这盘斜管面简直超乎世界的好吃！”这会让你感觉比只说“这盘斜管面很不错”还要更好。这可以用在你会使用的任何一种语言。记住，你的用词越强烈，你的感受也会越强烈。因此，你要小心你习惯会用的措辞。
