Reflections on Life

人生凝眸

You are the only one in a sea of infinity!

在无穷无尽有宇宙中，你是独一无二的。

Your dearest possession is life, and it is given to you but once.

你所拥有的一切中最宝贵的便是生命，而属于你的生命只有这一次。

Life gives every one his opportunities, but it doesn't send them into his hands.

生命给每个人提供了机遇送到他手里。

Wherever you want to go, whatever you want to do, it's truly up to you.

不管你想要去哪里，想要做什么，真正做决定的还是你自己。

You are the artist that paints your future with the brush of today!

你就是手握今日之画笔描绘自己未来的艺术家。

A Million Dollar Lesson

价值百万美元的一课

A cab driver taught me a million dollar lesson on customer satisfaction and expectation.

一位出租车司机给我上了一堂价值百万美元的课——关于顾客的满意度与期望值。

Motivational speakers charge thousands of dollars to impart his kind of training to corporate executives and staff. It cost me a $12 taxi ride.

讲成功学的老师给公司的高层和员工做一次这样的培训要收上几千美元，而我只花了12美元的出租车费。

I had flown into Dallas for the sole purpose of calling on a client. Time was of the essence and my plan included a quick turnaround trip from and back to the airport. A spotless cab pulled up.

我飞来达拉斯只是为了拜访一位客户。时间就是生命，我计划拜访他之后急速返回机场。一辆一尘不染的出租车停了下来。

The driver rushed to open the passenger door for me and made sure I was comfortably seated before he closed the door. As he got in the driver's seat, he mentioned that the neatly folded Wall Street Journal next to me was for my use. He then showed me several tapes and asked me what type of music I would enjoy.

司机迅速下车为我打开客座车门，等我舒服地坐好后才把车门关上。在驾驶座上坐定之后，他告诉我，放在我旁边的那份叠得整齐的《华尔街日报》是供我翻阅的。然后，他又将几盒磁带递给我，问我喜欢什么样的音乐。

Well! I looked around for "Candid Camera!" Wouldn't you? I could not believe the service I was receiving! I took the opportunity to say, "Obviously you take great pride in your work. You must have a story to tell

噢!我环顾四周，看偷拍相机藏在哪里!如果你遇到这样的情形，恐怕你也会这样做!我简直不敢相信有这等服务!我趁机说：“看得出你为自己的工作感到非常自豪，这其中一定有故事吧。”

You bet, he replied, "I used to be in Corporate America. But I got tired of thinking my best would never be good enough. I decided to find my niche in life where I could feel proud of being the best I could be. ”

“没错，”他回答道，“我以前曾在一家大公司上班，但是无论怎么努力也达不到别人的要求，我厌倦了这种生活。于是，我决定为我的人生开创属于自己的一片新天地，在那里我能做到最好，并为此感到自豪。

I knew I would never be a rocket scientist, but I love driving cars, being of service and feeling like I have done a full day's work and done it well. I evaluated my personal assets and... wham! I became a cab driver.

“我知道成不了火箭专家，但我喜欢开车，喜欢为他人服务，喜欢完成了一天的工作并且干得出色的那种感觉。我算了下我手头的资产。。。嗯，然后，我开上了出租车。”

One thing I know for sure, to be good in my business I could simply meet the expectations of my passengers. But, to be great in my business, I have to exceed the customer's expectations! I like both the sound and the return of being 'great' better than just getting by on 'average'.

“有一件事我深信不疑，想在这个行当中做得好，只要满足乘客的期望就行了。而要想干得很好，我就必须超出顾客的期望!我不满足于仅仅以一般服务打发日子，我喜欢顾客对我优质服务的赞誉和因此得到的回报。”

The Blessing Tree

祈愿树

I had gone into a supervisor's office to talk about a couple of issues that needed to be addressed. She, like all of the men and women in her department, had been through the proverbial "ringer." The stress was so intense, one could almost taste it.

我走进一位主管的办公室，和她讨论一些需要处理的事情。所有在这个部门工作的人，都像俗语所说的“被上了套”，她也不例外。他们所承受的压力之大，让人体会得到。

I had been assisting the department during a crunch period of being very short-handed, and was watching everyone get close to burn-out. When I inquired about her state of mind, she confessed that her home life was almost non-existant, because she was "zombieing through the evening". The next words out of her mouth expressed a frustration of my own: "This work is not my gift from God. My family is!"

我在这个部门人手不足的危急时刻来这儿帮忙，亲眼目睹了每个人都接近于精疲力竭的状态。当我问及她的精神状态时，她坦言自己几乎没有家庭生活，每天早晨醒来，她都像一具经过夜晚起死回生的行尸走肉。她接下来说的话也是我在受挫时想说的：“这份工作不是上帝给我的礼物。我的家庭才是!”

I had heard of hanging all of one's problems from the office on a "Trouble Tree" while driving home, to be picked up on the way back to the office in the morning, and for a brief second thought about suggesting that scenario.

我曾经听说过在下班开车回家之前把一个人在办公室遇到的所有难题都挂在一个“烦恼树”上，第二天早晨上班时再把它们拿下来。我思考片刻，想告诉她这个办法。

But what came out was: "Why don't we do something different? Let's have a Blessing Tree. On the way home in the evening, we could pull down a blessing to dwell on a character trait we adore in our spouse, a particular reason we love them, the love they or our children have for us. The list could be endless."

但是我说出口的是：“我们为什么不能做点与众不同的事呢?让我们种一颗‘祈愿树’，每天晚上回家之前获得一个愿望，祈求我们的爱人拥有我们所喜欢的性格特征，祈求我们因为某个特殊的理由爱他们，祈求我们的爱人和孩子对我们的爱。肯定有列不完的东西。”

When I tried it on the way home that night, the stress seemed to melt away. There was a "spring in my step" and when I arrived, a smile of joy and contentment was bubbling up from within! For the first time in 2 weeks, I was overjoyed to greet my wife and children!

那天晚上我走在回家的路上，压力好像消失了。我的步伐似乎也轻快起来，当我回到家时，我脸上浮起了微笑，这微笑源自内心的喜悦和满足。两个星期以来，我第一次为和妻子、孩子打招呼而感到由衷的高兴。

The Blessing Tree could make a major difference in your evenings, especially after those really tough days.

祈愿树使你的夜晚和以前截然不同，尤其是在那些艰难的日子之后。
