理想和现实之间:不是丰满与骨干,而是做与不做
Stop making big decisions and focus on closing the gap with where you want to be.
不再做不切实际的决定,而是把精力集中于如何缩小梦想与现实的差距。A successful life is not made of easy, clean cut choices.
成功的生活不是简单利落的做几个选择就能获得。Have you ever seen a guy desperately enamoured with a girl, but he can't bear to talk to her? Or someone who wants to get fit, but they won't step in a gym? How about someone who wants better career options but stays exactly where they are?
你有见过男孩深深迷恋着女孩,却不敢跟她说话吗?或者有些人想减肥,却没有进过健身房?那有没有见过一些人希望有更好的职业选择,却停在当下、固步自封吗?
Start take lots of continuous small steps. Take something you love doing - or if you're not sure what that is, something you'd like to try. And move towards it now.
开始通过小步骤不断积累。着手做一些你喜欢的事——如果你不确定是什么,做你想尝试的事。从现在开始向目标前进。You don't have to choose between a well-paid job you don't like and the unknown. You have countless other options:
你不必在不了解的事和高薪工作之间做选择。你还有很多其他选择:1. Start up a small business in your evenings
1. 利用晚上时间开展新业务2. Ask your boss what you could do for them to get promoted
2. 询问老板要做什么可以获得晋升3. Teach yourself a new skill that interests you
3. 自学你感兴趣的技能4. Write a blog or a book
4. 写博客或书Some steps will lead to greater things. But as long as you sit feeling paralysed, I can assure you nothing will change at all.
不积跬步无以成千里。但只要你觉得自己做不好,我可以向你保证任何事都不会发生变化。Do not, and I shall repeat for emphasis, do not defer this until a "better time". If you make a habit of that, you'll wake up one idle Monday and wonder how you let your whole life fly away.
千万不要,我要重复强调下,千万不要拖延以等待“更好的时机”。如果你把拖延变成习惯,你将在某个周一慵懒的醒来,然后想你如何让一生都飞速流逝。
