Regardless of where you are in life,
無論你在人生的哪個(gè)階段
who you are,
無論你現(xiàn)在的身份是什么
what you've done,
無論你過去做過什么
and how you feel about yourself,
你對(duì)自己有怎樣的認(rèn)識(shí)
it's never too late to have your Day 1 and start fresh..
想要開啟人生的第一天,從頭開始,永遠(yuǎn)都不晚
Your future is a clean slate .
你的未來是一張空白的畫紙
Even if you think you've lived a 1/10 life so far,
即使你覺得,到現(xiàn)在為止的人生,都讓你只有一成的滿意
you can put 10/10 effort going forward
那么,請(qǐng)你用十成的努力向前進(jìn)
and see a huge difference from where you are right now.
你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)與現(xiàn)狀決然不同的巨大變化
It'll take time,
這需要時(shí)間
as all things do,
任何事情的發(fā)展都是如此?
but you may as well start.
但你最好從此刻開始
?A week from now you could be a week into a whole list of new daily habits
七天之后,我會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn),自己已經(jīng)收獲了許許多多新的生活習(xí)慣
- eating better, working out, learning a new skill;
更健康的飲食,鍛煉,學(xué)會(huì)了一項(xiàng)新技能等等等等
whatever you want to improve on,
無論你希望在哪個(gè)方面有所改善
you can get there.
你一定會(huì)達(dá)成
It'll take time.
這會(huì)需要時(shí)間
It could take a lot of time depending on what it is,
各種不同的事情,所需要的時(shí)間也不一樣
but it's worth it. You know it's worth it.
但一切都是值得的。在心里你知道如此。
A month from now you could have a completely different mindset.
一個(gè)月之后,你的思維方式會(huì)徹底改變
That's what changing your habits does.
這正是習(xí)慣的改變帶來的成果
I feel like these days I see so many people who have given up
如今我感到自己見過許許多多的人選擇放棄
and resigned themselves to mediocrity .
最終甘于平庸
They've essentially come to terms with the 'fact'
他們最終都與“現(xiàn)實(shí)”妥協(xié)
that things will always be the way they are,
“事實(shí)”就是,生活永遠(yuǎn)都會(huì)是這個(gè)樣子
and coast through just waiting to die.
他們選擇隨波逐流,混吃等死
That's not a fact. That's a decision.
然而,這并不是真正的“事實(shí)”,而只是他們一廂情愿
As a great black Irish inmate once said,
我有一位非裔愛爾蘭國籍的摯友,事業(yè)杰出,他曾告訴我,
?"That's all it takes really. Pressure, and time".
“承受壓力,付出時(shí)間,你所需要付出的僅僅是這兩點(diǎn)?!?/div>
Changing your small habits and being consistent with the changes is ultimately the key to growing as a person
改變你的那些小習(xí)慣,讓這些改變持之以恒,這就是個(gè)人成長的最終關(guān)鍵
and getting to where you want to get.
它會(huì)幫你抵達(dá)你想去的遠(yuǎn)方
I don't know you.
陌生人,我并不認(rèn)識(shí)你
I don't know your goals or your aspirations,
我不知道你有著怎樣的目標(biāo)和志向
but I guarantee that whatever they are,
但我能保證,無論你的目標(biāo)和志向是什么
you can take the first step towards them today if you want to.
只要你愿意,今天你就能朝著自己的目標(biāo)邁出一小步
And I suspect most of you know what that first step is.
我猜想,其實(shí)大多數(shù)人都明白,自己如何邁出第一步
I've always believed there are 2 versions of a person -
我一直相信,所有人都有兩種狀態(tài)
the person they are now,
即,每個(gè)人的現(xiàn)狀
and the person they could become
以及每個(gè)人理想中的狀態(tài)——
?if they worked with what they have.
只要他們努力改變自己的現(xiàn)狀
?Visualize the very best possible version of yourself;
想象一下,那個(gè)最好的自己是什么模樣
the best you can achieve with what you have.
思考一下,憑借你所擁有的一切,你能取得多大的成就?
How do they look?
你想象中最好的自己是什么樣子?
?How do they think or behave or dress
他們會(huì)如何思考,如何待人接物、舉手投足,如何穿衣打扮?
and how do they spend your time?
要成為他們,需要你花時(shí)間做些什么?
You could be that person.
你可以成為那個(gè)人!
You have far more potential than you think.
你的潛能遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超過你的想象!
