父親分享的30堂人生智慧課（下）
it simple. There is a world of magnificence hidden in simplicity. Pick the five most important things in your life now and focus on those things. Let the other stuff go. Stop the busyness and really enjoy what’s important to you.
簡單化。有很多富麗堂皇都隱藏在簡簡單單中。現在選出你生活中最重要的五件事情，然後集中精力去做這幾件事。將其他的一切拋在腦後。停下忙碌的步伐，真正地享受對你來說重要的事情。
s on goals, not obstacles.
專注於目標，而非阻礙。
e is a major gap between knowledge and taking ACTION. Mistakes and failures are necessary interim steps in the learning process. Stop talking about what you have done or what you are going to do. Just do it and let your actions speak for themselves.
知道和採取行動之間有明顯的差距。錯誤和失敗是學習過程中必然會出現的環節。不要再談論你已經做過的事情和你要去做的事情。只管去做，讓行動爲事實說話。
times you just have to go for it. Put your uncertainty and fears aside for a second and ask yourself this: “If I try and I don’t get it right the first time, what will I have lost and what will I have gained?” The answer is: You will have lost nothing but a little bit of your time while gaining an important lesson that will help you get it right the second or third time.
有時候你必須去試一下。將你的不確定和擔憂暫時放一邊，問自己：“如果我嘗試了，第一次卻未成功，那麼我將會失去什麼又得到什麼呢？”答案是：你只不過失去了自己的一點時間，但是卻得到了一次重要的教訓，這會幫助你在第二次或第三次的時候做好。
down seven times, stand up eight. -Japanese proverb
跌倒七次，第八次的時候站起來。——日本格言
se a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life. –Confucius
知之者不如好之者，好之者不如樂之者。——孔子
order to get, you have to give.
要想索取，必先給予。
much is worth fighting about. Step back from arguments with your spouse, family members or neighbors. When you feel anger surging up and you want to yell that vulgar remark on tip of your tongue, just close your mouth and walk away. Let yourself calm down. You don’t have to be right or win an argument. It just doesn’t matter.
沒有什麼值得去爭吵。在跟伴侶、家人或鄰居吵架的時候退讓一步。當你感到怒氣上升，想要破口大罵的時候，閉上嘴走開。讓自己冷靜下來。你沒必要非要做得對或者在爭吵中獲勝。這根本就不重要。
iveness is not saying, “What you did to me is okay.” It is saying, “I’m not going to let what you did to me ruin my happiness forever.” Forgiveness is always the answer… let go, find peace, liberate yourself!
寬恕並不是去說，“你對我做的事情沒關係。”而是說，“我不打算讓你對我所做的事情永遠摧毀我的快樂。” 寬恕是永遠的答案……放手，尋找寧靜，釋放自己！
you can’t be with the one you love, love the one you’re with.
如果你不能和你愛的人在一起，那麼就愛和你在一起的那個人。
le skills – I think the main one: ASKING THE RIGHT QUESTIONS AND LISTENING.
交際能力——我認爲主要的一點是：問恰當的問題和傾聽。
don’t need an MBA, but take some courses or read some books on finance, economics, financial planning, investments (real estate, stock market), and accounting. Don’t buy stuff you don’t need. Don’t spend more than you make. Don’t let your money manage you.
你不需要去讀MBA，但是要參加一些金融、經濟、財務規劃、投資（房地產、股票市場）、會計方面的課程或者讀一些這些方面的書。不要買不需要的東西。不要入不敷出。不要讓你的金錢來掌控你。
is your life, your body and mind. Without necessarily getting a Ph.D. in nutrition, increase minimal culinary skills, accumulate some basic nutritional knowledge, and start experimenting immediately with what works for you. Also concentrate on keeping your body active. Escape from confinement in automobiles and office desks and move around.
這就是你的生活，你的身體和頭腦。你不一定非要去獲得營養學的博士學位，你可以提高最簡單的烹飪技巧，積累一些基本的營養知識，立即開始實驗一些對你有效的東西。同時也注意保持身體活力。不要太依賴汽車和辦公桌，多出去轉轉。
all make mistakes, have struggles, and even regret things in our past. But you are not your mistakes, you are not your struggles, and you are here NOW with the power to shape your day and your future.
我們都會犯錯誤、有掙扎，甚至爲過去的事情感到後悔。但你並不是錯誤，也不是掙扎，你現在正擁有力量去塑造你的每一天和未來。
e! Let everyone know that today you are a lot stronger than you were yesterday… and you will be.
微笑！讓每個人都知道今天的你比昨天的你更加強大，而且你將會越來越強。
