当你年轻的时候,至少花6个月到1年的时间,尽可能地过贫穷的生活,尽可能少地拥有东西,在一个小房间或帐篷里只吃豆子和米饭,以体验你 “最糟糕”的生活方式可能是什么。这样一来,当你将来要冒什么风险时,你就不会害怕最坏的情况了。
When you are young spend at least 6 months to one year living as poor as you can, owning as little as you possibly can, eating beans and rice in a tiny room or tent, to experience what your “worst” lifestyle might be. That way any time you have to risk something in the future you won’t be afraid of the worst case scenario.
【讲解】:古代读书人学习的目的,在于修养自己的学问道德(然后去为国家、人民服务),现在读书人学习的目的,在于给别人看(希望得到别人的赞美和任用)。
世界试图将你缩小,把你塞进它的小盒子里,但你必须抵抗。
Home is not where you are born, but where all attempts to escape cease.
Success is not about how much money you make, it's about the difference you make in people's lives.
正所谓“物以类聚,人以群分”,自己处在什么样的圈子里,自己一定有这个圈子的特点。自身的荣辱祸福都是由自己的行为决定的。比如,两堆柴火堆放的样子差不多,但是火星总是容易在干的那一堆里着起火。很多时候我们抱怨别人和不顺心的事,然而往往是自身的问题。
The only thing that is truly important is the difference you make in the world.
