放松自我relax
What does it mean to relax? Despite hearing this term thousands of times during the course of our lives, very few people have deeply considered what it's really about.
放松是什么意思?盡管一生中我們會(huì)成千上萬(wàn)次地聽(tīng)到這個(gè)詞,但是幾乎沒(méi)有什么人好好琢磨過(guò)它到底意味著什么。
When you ask people (which I have done many times) what it means to relax, most will answer in a way that suggests that relaxing is something you plan to do later ?? you do it on vacation, in a hammock1, when you retire, or when you get everything done. This implies, of course, that most other times (the other 95 percent of your life) should be spent nervous, agitated2, rushed, and frenzied3. Very few actually come out and say no, but this is the obvious implication. Could this explain why so many of us operate as if life were one great big emergency? Most of us postponerelaxation until our “in?basket4” is empty. Of course it never is.
當(dāng)你問(wèn)別人(我曾問(wèn)過(guò)許多次)放松意味著什么,大多數(shù)人的答案不外乎是,放松就是某些有朝一日你會(huì)做的事——那些你計(jì)劃在假期里,躺在吊床上,退休以后,或把該干的事都做完之后才有時(shí)間做的事。這自然意味著大部分時(shí)間(你生命中95%的時(shí)間)應(yīng)該是在緊張、焦慮、匆忙、瘋狂中度過(guò)。沒(méi)有什么人會(huì)站出來(lái)說(shuō)不是這么回事,而事實(shí)就是那么回事。這是否能解釋為什么我們那么多的人把人生看作是一件連續(xù)不斷的緊急事件而奔忙不停?我們很多人把放松推遲到我們的“收文籃”清空之后。但我們的“收文籃”當(dāng)然是永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)空的。
It is useful to think of relaxation as a quality of heart that you can access on a regular basis rather than something reserved for some later time. You can relax now. It's helpful to remember that relaxed people can still be superachievers and, in fact, that relaxation and creativity go hand in hand5. When I'm feeling upright, for example, I don't even try to write. But when I feel relaxed, my writing flows quickly and easily.
不妨把放松理解成一種心態(tài),是你可以時(shí)常受用、而不是什么非要留到以后才能享受的東西。你現(xiàn)在就可以放松。記住,會(huì)放松的人依然可以取得輝煌的成就。事實(shí)上,放松和創(chuàng)造往往如影隨形。比如說(shuō),當(dāng)我感到繃得緊緊的時(shí)候,我甚至不會(huì)試著去寫(xiě)點(diǎn)什么。但是我放松時(shí),會(huì)感到下筆流暢自如。
Being more relaxed involves training yourself to respond differently to the dramas of life ?? turning your melodrama6 into a mellow?drama7. It comes, in part, from reminding yourself over and over again (with loving kindness and patience) that you have a choice in how you respond to life. You can learn to relate to8 your thinking as well as your circumstances in new ways. With practice, making these choices will translate into a more relaxed self
要想變得更為放松,需要訓(xùn)練自己換一種方式對(duì)待生活中出現(xiàn)的種種事件——把生活中的“情節(jié)劇”變成一出溫馨的戲劇。要做到這一點(diǎn),在一定程度上就需要不斷地用愛(ài)心和耐心提醒自己:對(duì)于生活的挑戰(zhàn)做出何種反應(yīng)的決定權(quán)在你自己手中。你可以學(xué)著去用新的方式對(duì)待自己的心緒和周遭情形。只要多實(shí)踐,這些選擇會(huì)幫你造就更放松的自我。

Are You Ignoring That Little Thought
你在忽略那些小念頭嗎?
What happened to that brilliant idea that you once had? Did you ignore it because you thought that it was just a little thought ?
你曾經(jīng)想到過(guò)的那個(gè)非凡的主意后來(lái)怎樣了? 你是否因?yàn)橛X(jué)得那只是個(gè)小小的念頭而將其忽略了呢?
Have you ever considered what that little thought would have become if you had acted on your instincts or if you had paid more attention to it ?
你是否考慮過(guò), 如果你依照直覺(jué)行事,或是多用點(diǎn)心,當(dāng)初那個(gè)小小的念頭將會(huì)變成怎樣?
Imagine a scenario ,where you are sitting at home watching television or reading a book , suddenly a light buld is turned on in the dark tunnel of your mind as a thought or an idea crosses your mind . The thought catches your attention but seems so meaningless and you are tempted to discard it , but wait a minute !
想像這樣一個(gè)場(chǎng)景:你正坐在家里看電視或看書(shū),一個(gè)想法或念頭閃過(guò)腦際,令你眼前一亮, 豁然開(kāi)朗。這個(gè)想法雖然令你心中為之一動(dòng),但卻似乎毫無(wú)意義,于是你打算放棄它。但是請(qǐng)等一下!
That thought could be the potential beginning of the success you have so mush yearned for . As the thought crosses your mind . your senses become alert and you suddenly see a possibility , a realization , a solution , a conclusion , or find the answer to a problem whose solution has long eluded you .
那個(gè)想法可能就是你渴望已久的潛在的成功起點(diǎn) 。當(dāng)它在你頭腦中閃過(guò)時(shí),你的思維變得敏銳起來(lái),你突然看到了一種可能性、一種想法的實(shí)現(xiàn)、一個(gè)解決方案、一個(gè)結(jié)論,或是找到讓你困惑已久的問(wèn)題的答案。
It is almost as if a divine being has whispered the perfect solution into your ear or awakened your sences to a reality thereby bringing illumination to your life . It is like finding the last piece of jigsaw puzzle.
這就像是一位圣人在你耳邊低語(yǔ),告訴你最佳的解決方案, 或者將你的思維喚回到現(xiàn)實(shí),從而給你的人生帶來(lái)光明。這就像是找到智力拼圖的最后一塊一樣。
This becomes an AHA moment and everything freezes around you as you excitedly try to grasp the practicality of that little but powerful thought .
這將成為一個(gè)令人驚喜的時(shí)刻。當(dāng)你滿心激動(dòng),努力領(lǐng)會(huì)那個(gè)不起眼但非常有用的想法的實(shí)用性時(shí), 周圍的一切都好像靜止了。
Your self-confidence and enthusiasm increase as you become conscious of the great possibilties that can arise if that little thought is acted upon . This becomes the moment to build upon that thought and to write down any ideas that are streaming from that little thought for later review .
當(dāng)你意識(shí)到,如果實(shí)踐那個(gè)小小是想法,就會(huì)產(chǎn)生極大的可能性時(shí),你的自信心就會(huì)增強(qiáng),熱情也會(huì)高漲。此時(shí),你要以那個(gè)小小的想法為基礎(chǔ),記下由其激發(fā)出的所有念頭,以便日后回顧。
Seemingly meaningless little thought or ideas when acted upon have a potential to explode into great projects .
看似無(wú)足輕重的小想法或念頭一旦得以實(shí)施,就具有演變成偉大事業(yè)的潛能。
Many successful projects have been born from the little positive thoughts that were carefully nurtured and recognized as tickets to great things .
許多成功的事業(yè)都源于那些得到精心孕育的積極的小想法,這些想法被看作是走向輝宏事業(yè)的敲門磚。
You may have heard people say many times that it just came to me in a flash moment , a small idea or seemingly meaningless thought may cross your mind about something you have been planning to accomplish .
你可能聽(tīng)別人多次說(shuō)過(guò):我瞬間有了那個(gè)想法。閃念之間,一個(gè)與你一直計(jì)劃實(shí)現(xiàn)的事情有關(guān)的小點(diǎn)子或看似毫無(wú)意義的想法,就可能會(huì)在你腦中閃過(guò)。
Don't waste an opportunity to act on a potenntially brilliant idea . You don't have to wait for a major peers in order for a major idea , a master stratety , or approval from your peers in order for you to act on that little thought .
不要浪費(fèi)任何一個(gè)實(shí)踐某個(gè)充滿潛力的非凡念頭的機(jī)會(huì)。你不必為了實(shí)踐那個(gè)小念頭而等待大主意、總體規(guī)劃的出現(xiàn),或是等待同伴的贊同。
That little thought or idea is the beginning of great things if you decide to follow it thought .
如果你下定決心堅(jiān)持到底,那個(gè)小小的想法或念頭就會(huì)是你成就偉大事業(yè)的開(kāi)始。

買摩登自行車的犀利對(duì)話
Tom saw an advertisement in a newspaper for a beautiful modern bicycle which cost 50, so he went to the shop to have a look。
After examining the bicycle carefully, Tom turned to the shopkeeper and said, "There isn't a lamp on this bicycle, but there was one on the bicycle in your advertisement." "Yes, sir," answered the shopkeeper, "but the lamp isn't included in the price of the bicycle. It's an extra."
"Not included in the price of bicycle?" Tom said angrily, "But that's not honest. If the lamp's in the advertisement, it should have been included in the price you gave there."
"Well, sir," answered the shopkeeper calmly, "there is also a girl on the bicycle in our advertisement, shall we supply one for you too?"
小湯姆在報(bào)紙上看到一輛很漂亮的摩登自行車的廣告,標(biāo)價(jià)50英鎊,于是他到商店去看一看。
小湯姆很仔細(xì)地看完那輛自行車后,轉(zhuǎn)過(guò)身對(duì)店主說(shuō):“這輛自行車少了一盞燈,但在廣告上的自行車是有的。”“是的,先生,”店主回答說(shuō),“但那盞燈不包括在自行車的價(jià)格里面,是另外收費(fèi)的。”
“不包括在自行車價(jià)格里面?”小湯姆很生氣,“但這是不誠(chéng)實(shí)的。如果燈在廣告上,它就應(yīng)該包括在你所標(biāo)出的價(jià)格之內(nèi)。”
“嗯,先生,”店主冷靜地回答:“在我們的自行車廣告上還有一個(gè)女孩,難道我們也要為您提供一個(gè)嗎?”
