要想得到,必先付出。支持、引导以及奉献他人是人生中最大的嘉奖之一。你所做的事情都会有所回报的。
9. Not much is worth fighting about. – If you can avoid it, don’t fight. Step back from arguments with your spouse, family members or neighbors. When you feel anger surging up and you want to yell that vulgar remark on tip of your tongue, just close your mouth and walk away. Let yourself calm down. You don’t have to be right or win an argument. It just doesn’t matter.
很多事情并不值得争吵。如果可以,就尽量避免争吵,特别是与配偶、家人以及邻居的吵闹。当你感到怒不可遏,并且粗话张口即出的时候,请不要说话并且走开让自己冷静下来。没有必要一定证明自己是对的或者去赢得一场争吵,其实这些并不重要。
10. Don’t try to impress everyone. – Purposely impressing people is an act that brings nothing but a momentary ego boost. Be real with people instead. Connect with fewer people on a level that is deeper and more profound.
不要试图给所有人留有印象。刻意地让所有人记住你只是一种暂时的自我宣传行为,但这并不会为你带来任何好处。真正的社交,是与少数的某一水平的人来往,这才会使你的印象更加深刻又意义深远。
11. Keep having fun. – Fun is way underrated. With all of life’s responsibilities, fun will sometimes seem like an indulgence. It shouldn’t be. It should be a requirement. Make time for fun.
保持娱乐精神。乐趣总是会被低估。和生命中的所有责任相比,乐趣总是显得轻浮又随意,就像是奢侈的放纵。但它本不该被这样对待,乐趣是人生的必需,人们应该找时间去玩乐。
12. Keep it simple. – There is a world of magnificence hidden in simplicity. Pick the five most important things in your life now and focus on those things. Let the other stuff go. Stop the busyness and really enjoy what’s important to you.
让一切简单起来。简单的背后总是蕴藏着一个华丽的世界。现在挑出你的人生中最重要的五件事情,并且以此为重心,放下其他的事情。停止你的忙碌,去享受那些于你真正有意义的事情。
13. Little things stick with you. – So pay attention to them. Like watching your child sleep. Preparing a meal with your family. Sharing a great laugh with an old friend. This is the real stuff life is made of.
小事即是生活。所以请关注那些细微小事。就像哄孩子入睡,为家人准备可口的饭菜,或者是和老朋友一起开怀大笑,虽然细小琐碎,但也正是这些构成生活本身。
14. Less advice is often the best advice. – People don’t need lots of advice, they need to live. I’ve seen young, rocky relationships develop into wonderful marriages and fleeting inspirations ignite a lifetime of passion and happiness. Our life stories, like the answers we give to long essay questions, are uniquely ours. What people want to know is already somewhere inside of them. We all just need time to think, be and breathe, and continue to explore the undirected journeys that will eventually help us find our direction.
最好的建议是越少越好。人们并不需要过多的建议,他们需要的是亲身经历。我曾见识过一段并不成熟且又不够稳定的恋爱关系走入婚姻,并将转瞬即逝的激情化作陪伴永生的幸福和信念。我们的人生故事,就像是一场仅属于我们自己的漫长的论文答辩。人们想要知道的也早已存在于我们的内心,我们所需要的就是去想、去做和呼吸,继续在这个没有方向的旅途中找到自己的方向。
15. Manage your time. – Your situation and environment is ever changing, so be careful not to confuse things that are urgent with things that are important.
管理你的时间。你的情况和环境一直在变,所以你要留意,不要将那些急迫的事情就视为是重要的。
16. Manage your money. – Don’t buy stuff you don’t need. Don’t spend more than you make. Don’t let your money manage you.
懂得理财。不要买你不需要的东西,不要让自己透支,更不要成为金钱的奴隶。
17. What you learn in school does matter. – While you may not use the specifics of every classroom lesson, every lesson does expand the core thought process of your mind. Over time you will develop problem solving skills that are universally applicable. No single classroom lesson can teach this, and no single classroom lesson is more important.
学校教会我们的其实很重要。也许你并不会用到在课堂上学到的具体知识,但是每节课都会让你的思维得到扩展。随着时间的流逝,你将会提高自己解决问题的能力并令其普遍适用。单一的课程并不能教会你这些,也并不会比此更重要。
18. Dreams will remain dreams forever if you don’t take action. – Don’t dream about it anymore. Start doing it. In 40 years from now what is it that you will regret not having accomplished, appreciated or attempted? Do it, appreciate it and attempt it NOW!
如果你不去追求,那么梦想永远只是梦想。不要再梦想了,不如快点去行动。从现在开始的40年里,你将会后悔还没做什么,没欣赏什么或者没尝试什么吗?行动起来!现在就去欣赏和尝试吧!
