六個步驟使你在七天內打造一個更完美的自己(圖)

I wake up every morning knowing I can be something more than I was yesterday. I know I can be anything I want to be as long as I focus on that goal. I attempt to make every day another step towards succeeding at my dreams. There is no better day than today to start being the best you.

Every day that you have, you have the opportunity to make incredible things happen. Sure, there are almost 7 billion people on the Earth, but you can still make a difference either in your life or another. What I am asking of you is that you make one small attempt to make yourself better in some way for the next 7 days and, hopefully, continue this lifestyle change. Before we get into that, let’s answer a few questions…

每天早上醒來我都知道，我可以比昨天再進步一點點。我知道只要我堅持我的目標我的夢想就可以實現。我試圖把每一天作爲向我的夢想邁出的又一步。最好的方法就是從今天開始做最好的自己。你所擁有的每一天，你都有機會作出令人難以置信的事情。當然，有近70億人在地球上，但你仍然可以使你的生活與衆不同。我所要求的是，你做一個小小的嘗試，使自己變得更加完美在未來7天之內，並希望繼續這種生活方式的改變。在我們進入這之前，讓我們回答幾個問題...

Why Should You Become a Better You?

爲什麼你應該成爲一個更好的你？

I am assuming you are an amazing person right now. You have accomplished many great things and done a lot for others in your life. However, I feel that if we aren’t striving daily to be a better person, we begin to feel comfortable in the daily norm. Like many of you, I hate the daily norm. I love making everyday different than the last and experience something different as often as possible. With that, we should all challenge ourselves to be better so that we continue to grow and develop at whatever point we are in our lives.

我現在假設你是一個了不起的人。你已經在你的人生中完成了許多偉大的事情並且爲別人做了很多。做你生活中一個人很多。不過，我覺得如果我們現在不爭取每天做一個更好的人，我們會在常規生活中開始感到舒適。跟你們大多數人一樣，我不喜歡常規。我喜歡是每一天都變得和過去不一樣並且經歷一些不一樣的東西。我們應該挑戰我們自己使我們變得更出色，那樣我們才能在我們人生的任何時刻都不斷的進步。

What are the Benefits of Being a Better Me?

成爲更好的我有什麼好處呢？

By attempting to be a better you, you will be happier, more productive, and fulfill more dreams than if you chose to be stagnant. You will start to see new opportunities that once were never a reality nor a possibility. You will meet new and exciting people that may give more meaning to your life. These benefits just touch the surface of the positive impact of attempting to be a better you can have.

相比停滯不前，在追求日臻完美的過程中，你會更快樂，更高效，實現更多的夢想。你將開始看到一些新的機遇，這些新的機遇是曾經不可能成爲現實的。你會遇到新的和令人激動的人們，他們可能會給你的生活帶來更多的意義。這些好處只是觸及了對於成爲更出色的你的有積極影響的表面。

Why in the World Would I Listen to You About Being a Better Me?

爲什麼在這個世界上我會聽你教導我如何成爲一個更好的我？

That’s a great question and I am glad you asked. I am not perfect. I have many flaws. However, daily, I try to be a better person because I know that by doing so I am adding value to my existence and hopefully, to others as well. I am bringing more value to the great gift of life. If there is anyone that can strive to be a better person, it is me. So, if I am seeing the positives from trying to be a better person, I know you can gain from attempting this small action too. I am no motivational speaker, but I do know that I have the skills to assist others in a modest way. You don’t have to take any of this advice. But, it never hurts to try something new that may just improve your life. The worst case scenario is that I don’t help you in any way and you go back to your already awesome life.

這是偉大的問題，我很高興你問。我並不完美，我有很多缺陷。但是，我每天嘗試成爲一個更完美的人，因爲我知道我這樣做使我的存在更有意義。我給使我的生命更具有價值。如果有一個人爭取成爲一個更好的人，那就是我。所以，如果我看到使自己更完美的積極因素，我知道你也可以從這個小小的行爲開始嘗試。我不是積極的演說者，但是我知道我可以以一種謙虛的方式幫助他人。你沒有必要採取其中的任何建議。但是，採取一些可以提高弄生活的方式並沒有什麼不好的。最糟糕的情況是，我不用任何方式幫助你，而且你回到了你已經不錯的生活。

Now that those questions are out of the way, here are 6 daily steps that are basic and useful to becoming a better you in 7 days:

現在這些問題已經被解決了，這裏有6條基本的、有益的步驟可以使在這7天之內越來越優秀。

Wake up before sunrise.

This may be tough for the night owls, but this can be one of the best ways to get in tune with yourself before the chaos hits. Take advantage of being ahead of everyone else and enjoy the coming of the day. This practice will lead to a fresher, more alive you throughout the day if continued. The happier you start your day, the brighter the rest of the day will be.

1、在日出前起牀

這對夜貓子來說可能很困難，但是這可能是最好的方法使自己與自身相協調在沒有混亂之前。以一種領先別人的姿勢來迎接即將來到的一天。如果能持續做下去，這種做法將導致一個更新鮮，更有生機的你。你每天開始的越開心，在這天剩下的時間裏你將過的更愉快。

Ask someone if there is anything you can help them with.

Try to ask others if there is anything that you can do to make their day better. They will appreciate you more and may inspire them to pay it forward. This action usually leads to self-fulfillment knowing that you have improved the life of another.

2、去問問別人有沒有你能幫的上忙的事情

試着問別人是否有什麼你能做的來幫助他們的日子變得更好。他們會更加感激你並且能激勵他們不斷前進。這種行爲通常會導致自我實現而且能知道你幫助改善了另一個生命。

Get outside and be active.

I usually plead the case for getting outside so that more people would be healthier. But, today, I just want to share this action step so that you can get outside and disconnect from the world. By this I mean the digital world. Today, many of us spend all of our day in front of the television or computer screen. The world is vast and incredible and usually it can be experienced just by walking out the front door. Take this opportunity to walk through your town or city and greet all of those you pass. Experience life in the form of nature. Do this for 30 minutes and your mind will be clearer and more alive than when you started.

3、出門並且保持積極

我通常爲爭取去戶外而辯論因此更多的人能變得更健康。但是，今天，我只是想分享這一行動步驟這樣你們就能去戶外體驗與世隔絕。通過這個我的意思說，目前的數字世界，今天，我們中的對數人花了我們一整天的時間在電視和電腦前面。世界是巨大的和難以置信的，它可以被體驗只要需要通過走出前門。藉此機會，走過你的城市，和所有你經過的人和事物打招呼。體驗生活在自然的形式裏。這樣做30分鐘你的大腦會變得更清晰、更有活力與開始時相比。

4、寫下你下週的目標

別把眼光放的太遠。享受這周你想達成的每一件事。通過寫下你一週的小小理想，你更有可能會今天就開始行動而不是一再的耽擱。想要簡化你的工作嗎？寫下能讓你逐漸達到這個目標的每天的任務。儘量讓這些任務簡單一些，你能實現能給你帶來光明的一些偉大的成就。

Do one thing you love.

Love reading?Love running? Love talking? Love relaxing? Love writing? Whatever it is that you love, try doing that for some period of your day. When we experience the things we love, we tend to carry that positive attitude towards the following actions. This will increase your level of enjoyment with life so that you can be better at everything else that you do.

5、做一件你喜歡的事

喜歡讀書？喜歡跑步？喜歡說話？喜歡放鬆？喜歡寫作？不管什麼只要你喜歡，試着去做在一天的某些時間內。當我們體驗我們喜歡做的事的時候，我們就會傾向於對接下來的行爲持有積極的態度。這會提高你享受生活的水平因此你所作的每一件事都能做的更好。

Have you always wanted to know how to say a few words of Mandarin as well as understand what you were saying? Well, learn that one new thing today.
