值得你花時間體會的人生感悟

1. Patience and perseverance 1. 耐心和毅力

Thomas Edison said Genius is one percent inspiration and ninety nine percent perspiration. This is a truth that I have learned in my life. We often want results to appear overnight and we give up too fast when something does not work out the way we want it to. 托馬斯愛迪生說過天才就是百分之一的靈感加上百分之九十九的汗水。其實，我早就在我的生活中親身體驗到了這條真理。我們往往都希望事情在短時間內就有成效，當事情不如我們的意愿時，我們常常就會過早地放棄。

When I started this blog I didnt put much effort into it. I threw something together hoping that miraculously it will find its own readers and it will be a success. Of course that never happened. My first posts were not that great, but I worked my way to better grammar, a better writing style and better advice. Patience and perseverance were my allies in this journey. It took me almost three years to get where I am now but I have enjoyed every step of that journey. 當我開始開始寫這個博客時，我沒有投入太多的精力。我把許多東西都曬在這個網頁上，然后期待著它能找到自己的讀者并獲得成功。當然了，這樣的事從來沒有發生過。我發布的頭幾篇博文都寫得不好，但是我刻苦練習，力求以到位的語法、更好的寫作風格和更棒的寫作建議。耐心和毅力是這次旅程中的兩個好伴侶，我花了將近三年的時間才取得這個博客的成功，而且我很享受我所走過的每一步。

2. Loosen the reins 2. 松開束縛你的韁繩

Do you like to be in control of your life? I used to have a real problem with that because I just could not loosen up in life. I had to have everything just the way I planned; I had to be No.1 all the time (your typical description of an over-achiever.) 你想成為你命運的主人嗎?這一問題過去常常困擾著我，因為有些事我就是放不下。我過去常常希望一切事情都如我所計劃的那樣;我過去常常希望自己總是第一名(就如你對于超級成功人士的那種典型描述)。 The trick about life that Ive learned is that we are never in full control of our lives. While we can try our best to be the best we can be, sometimes things just happen. They just do. 我從生活這場魔術中所感悟到的就是我們無法全面地掌控自己的生活。而我們所能做的事就是盡我們所能做最好的自己，然后好事就發生了。生活就是這樣的。

I do not have to be No. 1 anymore. 我沒有必要總去爭奪第一名。

I do not have to leap over hurdles to be happy and content. 我沒有必要非要跨越障礙才能感受到開心與自得。

3. Accept who you are 3. 接納你自己

The biggest discovery that any of us can make is discovering who we really are. A lot of times we try to be somebody else because we want to portray a particular image in life. No matter how much you try, this fake personality will never work out and you will never be able to feel at peace and in balance with yourself. 我們每個人所能做出的最偉大的發現就是發現自我。很多時候我們想成為另一個人，因為我們想讓自己在生活中扮演另一個獨特的角色。不論你多么努力地去為此做出努力，對這個虛假的人格的追求都不會成功，而且你也無法感覺到內心的平靜與平和。 When I gave up my attempts and accepted who I was (basically a nerd) I started feeling so much better. This discovery made me realize my strengths and feel confident around strangers and generally in any situation. Yes, I am not a social butterfly but I am also not the one who will sit in the darkest corner of the room during a party. 當我放棄了這種嘗試而去接納我自己(書呆子)的時候，我感覺好多了。這個發現讓我意識到了我自己的長處，并且讓我在與陌生人相處時感覺更有自信。沒錯，我不是交際花，但我也不是那個在聚會中獨自一人呆坐在黑暗角落中的那個人。

4. Listen to your gut 4. 聽從你的直覺

One of the best skills that a person can learn is listening to him/herself. Listening to yourself will help you make friends with your body it will help you use your intuition and your potential to its fullest. The gut feeling can be the voice of God talking to you. It can be your unconsciousness or it can be both. 我們所能學到的最棒的一個技巧之一就是聽從自己內心的呼喚。聽從你自己的心聲能夠幫助你去結識志同道合的朋友，也會幫助你去充分地利用自己的直覺和潛能。這種直覺就像是你與上帝之間的對話。它也許是無意識的或是有意無意各占一半。

I am not the only one who was using intuition to make decisions in life. George Washington solved his most difficult problems during the Revolutionary War with intuition. His orderlies were instructed not to disturb him while he relaxed and intuited decisions. Actually according to one theory the founding fathers valued intuition so much that they have tried to remind us about it on the back of the dollar bill. The picture of the unfinished pyramid with an eye above it represents how important intuition (the eye) is in developing ideas or making decisions (completing the pyramid.) 我并不是惟一一個使用直覺去做出決定的人。喬治華盛頓就是運用直覺才在革命戰爭中解決了許多重大問題。當他在放松狀態下運用直覺去做出決定時，他不允許他的傳令兵去打擾他。有一種理論就說，我們的國父是如此看重直覺的力量以至于他們將此印在美元鈔票的背面來提醒我們。未完工的金字塔上方有一只眼睛，暗示著直覺(眼睛)在孕育想法和做出決定(完成金字塔)中的重要作用。

5. Always challenge yourself 5. 時常挑戰自己

When we get comfortable with a certain way of life, we get lazy. This laziness keeps us from growing from trying new things and from living a more balanced and happier life. 當我們過慣了舒適的生活后，我們就會變得懶惰。正是這種懶散才讓我們不再進步、不再嘗試新鮮事物、不再去追求更平衡、更快樂的生活。

One of the challenges that I place in front of me is to learn something new constantly. It keeps my life exciting, it opens new business opportunities and it makes me a more full person. 我時常擺在自己面前的挑戰就是不停地去學習一些新鮮的東西。它讓我的生活充滿驚喜，它為我打開了新的商業機遇，它也讓我成為了一個更完備的人。

When I still lived in Ukraine, I found a job in a web design company. I was hired because of my English skills but words like hosting html and ftp sounded like a foreign language to me. During the first few days I was scared of everything because I didnt understand what was going on there and what I had to do. In order to feel comfortable I decided to learn HTML and go through all the basic web tutorials that I could find. In a month I could create a simple site. I was comfortable talking to customers and I actually could guide them through the process of setting up a website and making basic customizations. That was a huge personal triumph. 當我還居住在烏克蘭時，我在一家網站設計公司找到了一份工作。我之所以會被雇傭是因為我的英文水平比較好，但那些諸如虛擬主機、html、 ftp等對我而言就像是外語的專業詞匯。在頭幾天里我對一切都充滿了恐懼，因為我不知道這里在搞些什么名堂，也不知道我該去做什么。為了讓自己感覺自在些，我決定去學習HTML并把我所能找到的一切基礎網絡教程都看一遍。一個月過后，我就能夠獨立創建簡單的網站，和客戶交談讓我感到很愉悅，而且我還可以為他們提供創建網站所需的指導和基礎的自定義設置。這真是一個非常巨大的個人勝利。
