守住內(nèi)心深處的那片寧靜5步走

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(rèn)為自己在別人眼中的樣子。不過這個形象往往是錯的，因為我們其實并不知道別人到底怎么看自己，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(rèn)清自己到底是誰。其實這只會讓你變得神經(jīng)兮兮，因為并沒有什么好找的。你有你的技能，你是個廚師、化學(xué)家或者慈善工作者，沒有什么能改變這個事實。

3. Celebrate your uniqueness. 悅納自己的與眾不同

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.

每個人都與眾不同。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(dāng)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么樣子。過去已經(jīng)成為回憶，沒必要活在回憶中。未來還是一個值得憧憬的美夢?，F(xiàn)在才是我們真正擁有的。

5. Be aware of this moment in your life. 關(guān)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(fā)生什么?你在做什么?你在享受人生嗎?不一定要等到畢業(yè)典禮或者中彩票這樣的重大時刻才去享受。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。
