????要是換做我,，這趟探尋消極性之旅的臨別贈言或許會更積極一些。我尤其會忠告讀者,，“繼續(xù)努力吧,。”畢竟,，在早前一個(gè)章節(jié)中，伯克曼讓我相信,，所有的失敗都令人鼓舞,。失敗，他寫道,，“只會發(fā)生在你沖擊自身能力邊界的時(shí)候,。”這是一個(gè)令人激動的聲明,，因?yàn)檫@句話表明,，在遭遇失敗時(shí)，你的能力邊界正在不斷向外拓展,。

????If it were up to me, the parting message of this exploration of negativity would be more positive. Specifically, "keep struggling." After all, in an earlier chapter, Burkeman convinced me that all failures are invigorating. Failure, he writes, "is happening only because you are pushing at the limits of your capabilities." This is a thrilling statement, because it suggests that in failing, you are being productive.

????And that's what makes The Antidote so refreshing. Rather than offering pat answers up front, Burkeman conducts a serious investigation into the various negative paths to happiness. In admitting that these paths don't lead to one logical, conclusive method, Burkeman invites us to choose our own.
