心靈雞湯:心遠地自偏守望內心深處的寧靜

1. Don't worry about your self-image.
不要顧慮自我形象。

We all have an image of ourselves, how we think we appear to others. It's usually wrong because we just don't know what other people think about us, and so it's not worth worrying about.

人人心中都有自我形象，也就是我們認爲自己在別人眼中的樣子。不過這個形象往往是錯的，因爲我們其實並不知道別人到底怎麼看自己，所以很容易杞人憂天。

2. Give up trying to find yourself.
放棄自我尋找

A lot of people say, "I need time to find myself, to work out who I am." This is one way to give yourself a neurosis because there's nothing to find. You have your capabilities; you may be a cook or a chemist or a charity worker and nothing can take that away.

很多人說，我需要時間尋找自我，來認清自己到底是誰。其實這隻會讓你變得神經兮兮，因爲並沒有什麼好找的。你有你的技能，你是個廚師、化學家或者慈善工作者，沒有什麼能改變這個事實。

3. Celebrate your uniqueness.
悅納自己的與衆不同

Every human being is different, unique. Nobody has quite the same take on things as you do. This is a marvellous feeling to enjoy. At the same time we have to understand that others have a different take too. It means we're not necessarily right, and it makes us more tolerant.

每個人都與衆不同。你和任何人都不一樣，這是一種很好的感覺。同時，要知道別人和自己也不一樣。這就是說，你不一定總是對的，這讓我們變得更寬容。

4. Live now!
活在當下

Don't put it off until tomorrow. We don't know what tomorrow will be like. The past is a memory – so there's no point in living there. The future is a hope and a dream which is pleasant to contemplate now is all we have.

不要把事情拖到明天。誰都不知道明天是什麼樣子。過去已經成爲回憶，沒必要活在回憶中。未來還是一個值得憧憬的美夢。現在纔是我們真正擁有的。

5. Be aware of this moment in your life.
關注每分每秒

What's happening? What are you doing? Are you enjoying? It doesn't have to be a big moment like a graduation ceremony or winning a lottery prize. Life is mostly small moments like washing the dishes or riding the subway, or having coffee with a friend. Life is too precious to be wasted drifting along half-awake.

正在發生什麼？你在做什麼？你在享受人生嗎？不一定要等到畢業典禮或者中彩票這樣的重大時刻纔去享受。洗盤子、乘地鐵、和朋友喝咖啡，是這些平凡而短暫的時刻組成了我們的生活。人生苦短，可不能半睡半醒的浪費了。

小編有約：隨着自己年齡的長大，慢慢地開始變得很着急起來，什麼事情都很慌。什麼時候能夠停下自己的腳步，喝杯茶，慢慢的想一想到底要怎麼，人才會快樂呢？Daisy覺得首先就是要接納自己，每個人都是不一樣的，所以沒有必要大家都一樣，好好回味回味這篇文章吧！
