英語勵志美文：就爲了今天

摘錄：就爲了今天，我將不再畏懼。尤其我不會再懼怕享受漂亮的事物，並且信任我給予世界的，世界也會給予我。

Just for today I will try to live through this day only and not tackle my whole life problem at once. I can do something for twelve hours that would appall me if I had to keep it up for a lifetime.

Just for today I will be happy. This assumes to be true what Abraham Lincoln said，that "Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be."

Just for today I will adjust myself to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my "luck" as it comes.

就爲了今天，我將盡力只渡過今天而不立即去解決畢生的問題。對一件令我懊喪而又必需一輩子的事，我只能保持十二個小時。

就爲了今天，我會很快活。亞伯拉罕-林肯說過，“大多數人都是決議想怎麼愉快就怎麼興奮。”這已經被以爲是真諦。

就爲了今天，我會做自我調劑適應事物原來的面目，而不是千方百計使每一件事滿意本人的願望。當機遇降臨的時候我會捉住它。

就爲了今天，我會努力心強志堅。我會學習，學一些有用的東西。我不會做一個精力上的流落漢。我會讀一些須要盡力、思考和留神力集中的貨色。

Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will not be a mental loafer. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration.

Just for today I will exercise my soul in three ways. I will do somebody a good turn and not get found out: If anybody knows of it, it will not count. I will do at least two things I don't want to do—just for exercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt: they may be hurt, but today I will not show it.

Just for today I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticize not one bit，and try not to improve or regulate anybody but myself.

Just for today I will have a program, I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will save myself from two pests: hurry and indecision.

Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself and relax. During this half hour, sometime, I will try to get a better perspective of my life.

Just for today I will be unafraid. Especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful，and to believe that as I give to the world, so the world will give to me.

就爲了今天，我會用三種方式來錘鍊我的靈魂。我會做對某人有利的事但不能被發現，若有人發明了就不算數。我將會做至少兩件我不願做的事件——只爲了磨難。我不會讓任何人覺得我的情感受到了傷害：它們可能受到了損害，但今天我不想表示出來。

就爲了今天，我會過得很愜意。看起來我到達了最佳狀況，衣着得體、講話謙遜、行動禮貌、一點不求全責備，儘量改良和調節自己而不是別人。

就爲了今天，我會制訂一個打算，我興許不會嚴厲地遵照它，但我必定要有規劃。我會防止兩種過錯：匆促行事跟猶豫不決。

就爲了今天，我將會單獨悄悄地呆上半小時放鬆。在這半小時裏，某個時刻，我會日後對我的生涯有個更好的見解。

就爲了今天，我將不再畏懼。尤其我不會再懼怕享受漂亮的事物，並且信任我給予世界的，世界也會給予我。
