The secret of happiness

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen!

I’m Lin Fengyi from Yinglin middle school. It’s my honor to stand here and give you the short speech. The topic for my presentation is “the secret of happiness”.

In our lives, we can always hear the word of “happiness”, but what is happiness? Winning a game is happiness; Getting a high grade in an exam is happiness; Even now I am standing here giving my speech is somehow also happiness. However, the secret of happiness lies in how you choose to react to the seeming uncontrollable

problems. Happiness is the most precious thing in the world, which can be obtained in different ways.

There are a lot of people who is full of energy and you can see the sweet smile on their faces everyday. You will have question here. Why are these guys happy all the time?

Let me tell you the answer: they know the secret ways to happiness.

Firstly, we know all the people must face a lot of pressure everyday; people know the secret have their own way to reduce their pressure and solve the problems. In front of the pressure, they choose to turn it into poetry instead of profanity. They have their own plan of everything such as a timetable including the time for working, for enjoying their life with wife, with husband and kids, for shopping and so on.

Secondly, they know what to cherish in their lives, and take advantage of everything they have now, they choose to do well what they can do now, and they race the clock.

Thirdly and the most significant things of all is to be happy. Putting on a happy face and thinking interesting things are helpful to trigger happy feelings.

Time flies! Three years of middle school life is quite short .Only once can we live! Why can’t we realize it now so that we can make full use of every minute? Why don’t we focus on our studies and involve ourselves in the school life ?If we don’t want to leave any regret , let’s get down to some solid work from this moment .Let’s start right now and let’s work together for our bright future and for our own happiness !

Thank you!

第二篇：演讲稿《What is happiness》

What is happiness?

Good morning. Ladies and gentleman, it’s a great pleasure for me to stand here to present my speech——what is happiness. What is happiness？Different individual have various understanding of it. In other words, everybody has his or her own criterion of happiness，if you reach the criterion，you are happiness. There is no doubt that other people's happiness may no be the happiness you want and on the contrary your happiness perhaps can't be accepted by others. To sum up, happiness is like a private article, it is you who could realize the present in it.

If you must give a definition of happiness, in my opinion, there are two kinds of it. One is that you have the perfect life and family, the other is you can do what you like best. It is obvious that lots of people prefer to possess the former kind of happiness, but in the movie "the pursuit of happiness”, the character had the later kind of happiness He was brought up in a single family and not until 28 years old did he know his father, so that he set up his mind to keep his son under his protection. It is his dream to be a investment expert, however, his wife left him owing to poverty, and then he couldn't afford the rent so he led a vagrant life in the city.

What’s more, he had to run as quickly as possible only to get the chance into the asylum. Too much "had to" finally made him achieve his goal, the moment he knew the news, his eyes were full of tears.

So friends, which kind of happiness do you have? Thank you!

什么是幸福？

每个人在心中都有自己的幸福标准，只要达到了这个标准，你就是幸福的。别人的幸福不一定是你所想要的，而你的幸福别人或许也未必认同。幸福是一件私有产品，只有自己才能体会那片刻的快乐。如果非要给幸福下个定论。我觉得无非有两种：一是你拥有完美的生活；一是做你最喜欢的事情。

克里斯·加德纳拥有的显然是后一种幸福。单亲家庭长大的他，在28岁的时候才见到自己的亲生父亲，于是他想让自己的儿子一直都活在自己的保护下。他的梦想是成为一名投资专家。可是生活的困苦，却让他的妻子离开了他。接着，没有房租的他开始带着儿子过着流浪的生活。一方面他不得不提着40多磅重的医疗仪器四处奔走推销用以糊口；一方面他要保护好只有5岁儿子的幼小心灵。他因交不上房租，而不得不义务粉墙；他因没钱交汽车罚单，而不得不在警察局里过夜；他因无处可去，而不得不抱着儿子在厕所过夜；他甚至不得不在下班后狂奔，那只为排队获得进收容所的机会……太多太多的"不得不"， 最终让克里斯·加德纳在获得工作机会的那一刻感到了莫大的幸福。

他终于成为了一名正式的经济师，这离他的梦想更近了。在那一刻，站在人群中的他激动得不知道如何来表达内心的感受，他飞快地跑到儿子面前和他相拥，眼中的泪花在这一刻则是幸福的泪水。虽然，这对他来说只是一个起步，不过，这确是他的人生转折。得到幸福的过程是如此的艰难，也正因为艰难，我们才会珍惜。他在球场上对儿子说："如果你有梦想，那么请保护好它。"在那一刻，他都未必能坚持住自己的梦想，但是他却鼓励儿子能够坚信梦想。

幸福到底是什么？人的一生能体验到多少份量的幸福，其实关键在于你对人生所持的态度。你认为尽责任是一种幸福，你就有了幸福的体验；你认为知足是一种幸福，你就有了知足常乐的幸福体验；你认为平淡简朴是一种幸福，你就有了比别人多得多的幸福体验。
