生活是種游戲(Life Is a Game)
you understand that work is a rubber ball. if you drop it, it will bounce back. but the other four balls are made of glass. if you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, damaged or even broken into pieces. they will never be the same. you must understand the an strive for balance in your life. how?
don’t undermine your worth by comparing yourself to others. it is because we are different that each of us are special.
don’t set your goals by what other people consider important. only you know what is best for you.
don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart. hold on to them as you would to life, for without them, it’s meaningless.
don"t give up when you still have something to give. nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
don"t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. it is this fragile thread that binds us to each together.
don"t be afraid to encounter risks. it is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
don"t shut love out of your life by saying it"s impossible to find. the quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
don"t forget, a person"s greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
don"t be afraid to learn. knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.
don"t use time or words carelessly. neither can be retrieved.
don’t let life slip through your fingers by living in the past or in the future. by living your life one day at a time, you live all the days of your life.
don’t’ run-through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
life is not a race, but a journey to be enjoyed slowly each step of the way. yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, and today is a gift. that’s why we call it—the present.
想像生活是一個(gè)游戲，像是你在空中拋五個(gè)球。你點(diǎn)著它們的名字：工作，家庭，健康，朋友，精神，你正保持這些球在空中。
你明白工作是一個(gè)橡膠球。既使你沒(méi)有接住它，它也會(huì)彈回來(lái)。但其它四個(gè)球都是用玻璃做成的。如果你掉落其中一個(gè)，它將會(huì)無(wú)法挽回的留下劃痕和缺口，甚至是摔的粉碎。它們永遠(yuǎn)都不會(huì)回到原來(lái)的樣子了。你必須學(xué)會(huì)全衡生命。怎樣去做?
不要因?yàn)楹退吮容^而使自己的價(jià)值逐漸喪失，因?yàn)槊總�(gè)人都是與眾不同的。
不要把目標(biāo)定在別人都認(rèn)為重要的事情上，因?yàn)橹挥心阒雷约旱膬?yōu)勢(shì)。
不要把什么事情看作心中最重要的，靠它們?nèi)セ蠲�，因�(yàn)樗鼈儠r(shí)候都毫無(wú)意義。
不要在尚可以給予的時(shí)候絕望，因?yàn)闆](méi)有任何事會(huì)在你嘗試之前失敗。
不要害怕承認(rèn)你不夠優(yōu)秀，因?yàn)檎沁@脆弱的細(xì)絲連接著我們。
不要害怕接受挑戰(zhàn)，因?yàn)檫@是使我們學(xué)會(huì)勇敢的機(jī)會(huì)。
不要說(shuō)自己沒(méi)有那樣的運(yùn)氣就把愛(ài)情關(guān)在門(mén)外，因?yàn)樽羁斓牡玫綈?ài)的方法是付出愛(ài)，最快的失去愛(ài)的方法是把愛(ài)抓的太緊，保持愛(ài)的最好方法是讓它插上翅膀。
不要忘記，人最大的情感需要是得到肯定。
不要害怕去學(xué)習(xí)，因?yàn)橹R(shí)是沒(méi)有重量，可以輕便的隨身攜帶的財(cái)富。
不要輕易地使用時(shí)間或者詞語(yǔ)，因?yàn)闅v史不會(huì)重演。
不要讓生命在為過(guò)去或?yàn)閷?lái)的生活中從指尖滑過(guò)，在生命的每一時(shí)刻，你都要為自己而活。
不要因?yàn)樘斓赝瓿缮浟四闵碓诤翁�，將往何方�?/p>
生活不是短跑比賽，而是每一步都值得慢慢欣賞的旅行。昨天是歷史，明天是秘密，而今天是一個(gè)禮物。因此我們叫它“present”。
