Life is short. It may feel like it takes forever sometimes, but the reality

is that you live, and a short time later, you die. It happens so quickly, many people don’t even realize they had a life until it’s already over。

生命如此短暫。我們有時(shí)候覺得生命怎么也走不完，實(shí)際上，你現(xiàn)在活著，過不了多久，就會(huì)死去。人生真是轉(zhuǎn)眼一瞬間的事情，很多人到臨死前才意識(shí)到這一生已經(jīng)結(jié)束。

1 – Stop Doubting Yourself

1 停止懷疑自己

If you don’t believe in yourself, nobody will. Success starts in your mind, and if all you’re doing is putting yourself down and predicting failure, it’ll become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Instead of doubting yourself, think positively. Not only will you be happier and more successful, you’ll spread it to everyone around you。

如果你自己都不相信自己，那沒人會(huì)相信你。成功源于你的頭腦，如果你所做的是不斷地看扁自己，預(yù)言著未來的失敗，這就真的會(huì)成為現(xiàn)實(shí)。與其懷疑自己，不如積極的考慮問題。不僅會(huì)讓自己更加開心和成功，你還能夠感染到周圍的人。

2 – Stop Being Negative

2 停止消極

Now that you’re done doubting yourself, stop doubting others. You don’t like when people are critical of you, so stop being critical of others. Think about how you make other people feel – even if you have good intentions, people don’t like hearing negativity。

現(xiàn)在你不要再懷疑自己了，也別再懷疑身邊的人。你不希望被人對(duì)你挑剔，那么也不要再去挑剔身邊的人。想想你給別人帶來的什么樣的感受吧——即使出發(fā)點(diǎn)是好的，別人也不想聽到那么多消極的事情呀。

3 – Stop Procrastinating

3 停止拖延

I don’t feel like procrastinating right now – I’ll do it tomorrow. When you procrastinate, you remain stagnant. Whatever you’re putting off doesn’t go away; resolve the problem, and move on. You’ll be much happier in the long run。

我現(xiàn)在不想做，還是留到明天吧。一旦開始拖延，其實(shí)你已經(jīng)停滯不前了。你拖延的事情不會(huì)自行解決。解決問題，繼續(xù)前行吧。從長遠(yuǎn)角度來說你會(huì)更加快樂。

4 – Stop Being Mean

4 不要那么刻薄

It’s completely possible to step on someone’s toes without meaning to – it happens all the time. There’s no need to pile on by purposefully doing mean things, so make a conscious effort to stop being mean. If someone wrongs you, let it go. There’s no need to seek vengeance unless that’s the type of person you want to be。

無意踩到別人的情況真的有可能會(huì)發(fā)生——常常會(huì)發(fā)生。但沒必要去處心積慮的做一些不好的事情，所以要有意識(shí)地讓自己不要那么刻薄。如果有人對(duì)你無理地對(duì)待，隨他們?nèi)ズ昧恕]必要去報(bào)復(fù)，除非你也想成為那一類的人。

5 – Stop Eating Out

5 不要在外吃飯

Eating out is the biggest waste of money. Every so often it’s nice to treat yourself, but eating out for every meal is the quickest way to drain your bank account. Learn how to cook at least a handful of foods you enjoy: It’ll save you money, keep you healthier, and occasionally impress people。

在外面吃飯真的非常非常的浪費(fèi)錢。也許每次對(duì)于你而言都是一次犒賞，但每頓都在外面吃反而是花光積蓄的最快方式。至少也去學(xué)學(xué)怎么做一些自己喜歡的菜：既能省錢，還能讓你更健康，還會(huì)讓其他人眼前一亮。

6 – Stop Being Lazy

6 不要再偷懶

Lazy people are annoying – it’s like pulling teeth getting them to do anything. If I can’t do something as simple as going to a movie with you without having to factor in an hour of convincing you to get your lazy butt out of bed, I’d rather go alone. People have enough trouble motivating themselves; don’t make your friends and family waste their valuable energy motivating you as well。

懶人真的很招人煩——得像趕驢磨墨一樣逼著他們做事情。如果我想跟你看一場(chǎng)電影，卻不得不花一個(gè)小時(shí)說服你起床，那我寧愿一個(gè)人去看。給自己動(dòng)力都不是件容易的事情，就別讓朋友和家人浪費(fèi)寶貴的精力再來給你動(dòng)力了吧。

7 – Stop Complaining

7 停止抱怨

We all have problems, and sometimes we need to vent to someone. That’s acceptable, but pay attention to how often you’re venting. We all love helping our friends and family, but when all you get from someone is negativity, it’s easier to cut them off than help, especially if they’re always complaining about the same things。

我們都有麻煩事，有時(shí)候總想跟別人傾訴。這可以理解，但要注意你吐槽的頻率。我們都喜歡幫助朋友和家人，但如果從那個(gè)人身上我只能感知到負(fù)能量，那么還是離得越遠(yuǎn)越好吧，尤其是當(dāng)他們?cè)诜磸?fù)抱怨同一件事的時(shí)候。

8 – Stop Being Selfish

8 別再那么自私

If you only think about yourself, you’ll soon find yourself by yourself. Stop for a minute and think about how your actions affect other people – did you take the last cup of coffee from the break room? Refill it! Do you live with others? Don’t drink out the milk carton. We share this world 100% of the time, so every action you take can affect other people。

如果你只考慮你自己，那么很快你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)身邊只剩下你自己。停一分鐘想想你的行為會(huì)給別人帶來什么影響吧——你是不是從休息室拿了最后一杯咖啡?再倒?jié)M呀!你是不是和別人合租?不要喝光所有的牛奶，這個(gè)世界是一個(gè)完全由大家分享的世界，你所做的每件事都會(huì)影響到別人。
