　　優(yōu)美勵(lì)志英文文章1

　　致憂傷的你

　　Dear Anyone Having a Bad Week,

　　親愛的度過糟糕一周的你：

　　I'm sorry. I have no idea why your week is bad, or how bad it actually is. I don't know if you've told anyone, if there's anything that could fix it or if it's made you rather unpleasant to be around. But I do know that I'm sorry that you're hurting, or stressed, or exhausted, or grieving, or frustrated, or depressed, or lonely, or scared or lost.

　　我很抱歉，我無從知曉你的這一周為何很糟糕，也不知道實(shí)際情況到底有多糟。不知道你是否有找人傾訴，是否有什么方式可以讓你好受一些或者說現(xiàn)實(shí)是否讓你更加難過。但是我清楚地知道我為你一切不好的情緒感到深深的同情，無論是你受到傷害或者感到壓力，亦或是感到疲憊、悲傷、筋疲力盡、沮喪、孤獨(dú)、害怕還是迷失。

　　I thought about writing this letter in a couple of different ways. I thought about writing it about the things you could do to feel better: show yourself compassion, go outside and look at the trees, look at a baby photo of yourself. Or I thought about focusing the letter on how the "bad weeks" can actually be pretty beautiful, if you look at them the right way. I almost wrote those letters, and maybe at some point I will, but I think I ended up deciding that I wasn't writing to make anyone feel better -- I just want you to feel heard.

　　我想象過用各種不同的方式來寫這封信。我想象寫一些可以讓你感到好些的事情：比如對(duì)自己表示同情、出去看看樹木或者看看自己兒時(shí)的照片;或者我也想象過將信的著重點(diǎn)放在，如果你用正確的方式來看待“糟糕的一周”，你或許會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)這一周實(shí)際很美好。我差一點(diǎn)就那樣寫了，也許將來會(huì)這樣寫。但是現(xiàn)在我最終決定不寫這些。——我只是想讓你們感到，有人聽到了你們的心聲。

　　There's something about humans that makes us crave for our pain to be recognized. There is something inherently good and comforting in having someone say, "Yeah, that sounds really hard," or, "It really sucks that you have to deal with all that."

　　作為人類本身，我們都渴望自己的悲傷被了解。如果有人能在這個(gè)時(shí)候?qū)δ阏f“是的，那聽起來的確很糟”或者“你需要面對(duì)這些真的是太不幸了”，我們的內(nèi)心都會(huì)感到些許好轉(zhuǎn)或安慰。

　　But unfortunately, that's not always the direction that society pushes us in. We have been taught that bad days are to be silently borne beneath a bright smile; that expressions of pain are uncomfortable.

　　但不幸的是，現(xiàn)實(shí)并不總能按照我們期望的方向發(fā)展。我們總是被告知需要隱藏自己的悲傷，展露自己的微笑。而這種表達(dá)方式讓人并不舒服。

　　I want you to know you can feel free to spill your bad day all over the place and wear it on the front of your shirt.

　　我想要讓你知道，你可以在任何地方自由表露你的壞情緒，你甚至可以將它畫在T恤上穿在你的身上。

　　I want you to know that the expressions of your pain are beautiful and that I will try my very hardest to feel the hurt with you. I want you to know that your grumpy, stressed out, short-tempered self is just as awesome as your cheerful self. Please do not shun your suffering.

　　我想要讓你知道你表現(xiàn)出來的悲傷也很美麗，我會(huì)盡我最大的努力來盡量感受你的不幸。我想要讓你知道，有壞情緒、壓力感和小脾氣的你與快樂時(shí)的你一樣可愛。請(qǐng)不要再壓抑自己的情感。

　　In writing this, know that I hear you, and let yourself be healed. I hope your day turns around, and that even if it doesn't, you can still find a few moments of beauty and/or happiness amidst the crappiness. For all of you not having bad days -- carry on, and enjoy.

　　在寫這篇文章時(shí)，我聽到了你們的心聲，請(qǐng)讓自己盡快好起來。我希望你們?nèi)兆踊謴?fù)正常，即使不能，你仍然可以發(fā)現(xiàn)一些美好的瞬間或者苦中作樂一下。為了不讓你們自己持續(xù)這種糟糕的日子，向前看，去享受生活吧!

　　Sincerely,

　　此致

　　陽光生活每一天的5個(gè)秘訣

　　1. Don't avoid or ignore negativity.

　　1. 勿要躲避或忽視陰暗面

　　In order to conquer and overcome, it must be acknowledged. This can include people in your life who may be bringing you down, a hostile workplace environment or even a personal stressor that you haven't conquered quite yet. You are in control of your environment and if these negative situations keep making an appearance, it's up to you to handle them.

　　我們得正視生活的陰暗面，這樣才能將其克服與戰(zhàn)勝。負(fù)面因素可以包括生活中會(huì)使你沮喪的人和不友善的工作環(huán)境，甚至是目前仍讓你感到壓力的源頭。你所處的環(huán)境為你掌控。倘若這些消極場(chǎng)景一直出現(xiàn)，將其解決的也只能是你。

　　2. Take care of yourself and your needs.

　　2. 關(guān)愛自己，重視自我需求。

　　In order to feel compelled to live a powerful and meaningful life, you must love you. Take care of your actions and how you live each day, and this will be reflected in your thoughts and emotional state of mind. Love yourself fully in order to love others fully.

　　為了讓生活有意義并充滿能量，你必須愛自己。關(guān)注你的所作所為以及每天的生活方式吧。它們將會(huì)反映到你的思想與情感狀態(tài)中。為了全心全意地愛他人，你得全身心地愛自己。

　　3. Mend what's broken or get rid of it.

　　3. 之于裂痕，要么修復(fù)，要么忘懷。

　　Determining what is worth your time and effort and what is not can be challenging. If situations are toxic and beyond repair, it's time to let go. Are there relationships or friendships that remain damaged but you know are worth the time? Fix them and find peace. Do what you can to find love in situations where it may have be absent in the past.

　　決定什么值得你付出時(shí)間與努力，而什么又不值得，是有難度的。如果情況不樂觀且難以修復(fù)，那是時(shí)候放手了。你是否仍認(rèn)為有些受損的感情或友情值得花時(shí)間來維持?修補(bǔ)它們吧，并且保持平和的心態(tài)。盡你所能從過去那些不曾有愛的場(chǎng)景中發(fā)現(xiàn)愛!

　　4. Give back.

　　4. 傾情回饋。

　　Giving our time, energy, love, mentorship and sometimes money is what life is about. Everything we put out into the world comes back to us. My mom taught me a quote she learned in Mexico that stuck with me forever, "donde comen uno, comen dos." (where one can eat, two can eat.) It moves me every time I say it out loud. At the end of the day, no matter what you have you are likely in a position to give something small to someone else who needs it. Don't hesitate.

　　人生的真諦是給予我們的時(shí)間、能量、愛和教導(dǎo)(金錢有時(shí)也是)，我們向世界付出的一切都會(huì)有所回饋。我母親曾教過我她在墨西哥學(xué)到的一句話，讓我永生難忘：“donde comen uno, comen dos.”(一人能食之處，也能供兩人享用。)我每次大聲讀這句話時(shí)，都會(huì)被震撼感動(dòng)。說到底，無論你擁有什么，你都有可能給予他人小小的一份心意，而這正是他們需要的。不要猶豫。

　　5. Things that make us smile, laugh and feel good are just awesome.

　　5. 所有讓我們笑逐顏開，感覺不錯(cuò)的事都值得敬重。

　　This one is pretty simple...Just do MORE of it. Do more of what makes you happy! I truly believe that in the super fast paced world we live in, happiness may not come as easily as we wish. In order to navigate through work and responsibilities that seem monotonous, we have to actively pursue and engage in beautiful acts of love and kindness. So get to it!

　　這點(diǎn)極其簡(jiǎn)單…只要更多地去實(shí)行它。去做更多讓你開心的事!我真心相信，在如今這個(gè)超快節(jié)奏的世界，幸福來得也許并不像我們希望的那樣簡(jiǎn)單。為了能順利處理那些看上去單調(diào)的工作與職責(zé)，我們得積極追求愛和善的美妙行為，并更多地參與其中。所以行動(dòng)起來吧!

　　優(yōu)美勵(lì)志英文文章3

　　優(yōu)秀的人們每天會(huì)做的10件事

　　We all see and hear about extraordinary people around us and wonder why can’t we be more like them? Sometimes we chuck that notion as absurd and unachievable. I would say not so fast. It’s not the big things that make someone extraordinary. It’s the small things.

　　我們都看到或聽說過身邊那些優(yōu)秀的人，并在想為什么自己不能和他們一樣?有時(shí)我們覺得這種想法很荒謬，根本無法實(shí)現(xiàn)。我覺得不一定。人并不是因?yàn)榇笫露鴥?yōu)秀，而是因?yàn)樾∈虏抛兊米吭健?/p>

　　Things that over a period of time have the power to radically change your life. They become extraordinary by making a difference in someone's life. Here are some of the things extraordinary people do every day:

　　發(fā)生在一段時(shí)間內(nèi)的事情可以從根本上改變你的生活。優(yōu)秀的人通過讓他人的生活有所不同而變得卓越。下面的幾件事是非凡的人每天都會(huì)做的。

　　1. They are open to criticism

　　他們樂于接受批評(píng)

　　Just because you’re the boss, doesn’t mean you are right every time. It doesn’t mean you have the best ideas. Learn to back up your ideas or decisions with reason. Use logic to explain things, not authority. By doing this your decisions might invite criticism, but you will also get an opportunity to improve.

　　你是老板，但這不表示你每次都對(duì)，不表示你的想法最好。學(xué)著用理性來支持你的想法或決定。運(yùn)用邏輯來解釋事情 ，而不是運(yùn)用權(quán)威。這樣的話你的決策可能會(huì)引發(fā)批評(píng)，但是你卻得到了提高的機(jī)會(huì)。

　　2. They admit their mistakes

　　他們都承認(rèn)錯(cuò)誤

　　My friend’s boss made a huge mistake by tying up with an event management company. The whole purpose of the tie-up was to promote his company but it failed miserably. Instead of defending his idea and carrying on as if nothing happened, he apologised to the team for not including them in the decision making. It’s OK to admit you were wrong. You will not only gain the respect of your team mates, you will also gain credibility.

　　我朋友的老板犯了個(gè)大錯(cuò)，他把公司和一個(gè)活動(dòng)管理公司合并了，本來合并是為了提升他的公司，誰知道最后竟是悲慘的結(jié)局。他沒有為自己的想法辯護(hù)，沒裝作什么也沒有發(fā)生，而是因自己在做決策時(shí)沒有考慮到團(tuán)隊(duì)的意見而向他們道歉。承認(rèn)自己做錯(cuò)了沒什么大不了。你不僅會(huì)獲得團(tuán)隊(duì)成員的尊敬，而且也會(huì)贏得信譽(yù)。

　　3. They are generous with compliments

　　他們毫不吝嗇贊美之詞

　　Remember the time, say in school or at work when you worked really hard but got nothing in return. Not even a thank you. It hurts when your efforts are not recognized. So every chance you get to praise someone, do it. A simple, “That was some great work, keep it up,” can go a long way in making the employee feel great about them self. A compliment can have a positive impact on their lives. Your team/family will love you for it.

　　還記得你認(rèn)真學(xué)習(xí)或努力工作而沒有任何回報(bào)的時(shí)候吧，有時(shí)連句“謝謝”都沒有。可你的努力不被承認(rèn)時(shí)你會(huì)受到打擊。所以，當(dāng)你有機(jī)會(huì)贊揚(yáng)他人時(shí)，一定要贊揚(yáng)。一句簡(jiǎn)單的贊美之詞，如“做得真好，繼續(xù)努力，”會(huì)讓雇員在很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間內(nèi)都會(huì)感覺良好。贊美能對(duì)他們的生活產(chǎn)生積極的影響。你的團(tuán)隊(duì)/家庭也喜歡你這樣做。

　　4. They are sensitive to others

　　他們對(duì)他人都很敏感

　　Think about a time you complimented someone and the recipient changed the topic? Maybe he or she was uncomfortable. But you still were not amused were you? Similarly, when you feel awkward receiving a compliment or an award, remain in control and give the person in front of you a genuine smile and thank him or her. Don’t make the moment sour by acting on your insecurities.

　　想一想，有沒有這樣的時(shí)候?你正贊美對(duì)方而對(duì)方卻改變了話題?也許你的贊美令他/她感覺不舒服。但是你會(huì)覺得不痛快，對(duì)吧?同樣地，當(dāng)你收到贊美之詞或獎(jiǎng)品時(shí)，如果感到尷尬，可以克制自己，給你面前的人報(bào)以真正的微笑并謝謝他/她。不要因?yàn)椴话踩卸屇且豢套兊貌挥淇臁?/p>

　　5. They ask for help

　　他們尋求幫助

　　When you need help, don’t be arrogant or shy and stop yourself. If you’re lost on the road, it is fine to ask for directions. Everyone needs a little help sometime. When you ask for help, you receive help. By doing so, you’re letting people know you’re no superhuman, that you’re willing to listen, you also need support at times…which only show you could become a great leader someday.

　　當(dāng)你需要幫助時(shí)，不要因?yàn)樽源蠡蚝π叨蝗ハ蛩饲笾?。如果你迷路了，就去問問別人怎么走。每個(gè)人都會(huì)在某一時(shí)刻需要幫助。當(dāng)你尋求幫助時(shí)，會(huì)有人幫助你。這樣做，你會(huì)讓人知道你不是超人，你愿意傾聽，你有時(shí)也需要?jiǎng)e人的支持……這表明有一天你也可能成為偉大的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)。

　　6. They apologize when needed

　　他們?cè)摰狼傅臅r(shí)候就道歉

　　We all make mistakes, but what makes a person big is when he is ready to apologize. Don’t try to hide behind excuses: “I didn’t mean to say it, it just happened.” “I was irritated with such and such person so…” No. Don’t try to shift blame. Just come right out and say you’re sorry.

　　我們都會(huì)犯錯(cuò)，但優(yōu)秀的人勇于道歉。不要試圖找借口：“我不是這個(gè)意思。”“我被這樣的人激怒了……”不要這樣。不要試圖推卸責(zé)任。直接說你錯(cuò)了。

　　7. They are willing to learn

　　他們樂于學(xué)習(xí)

　　When you don’t understand how something works, let an expert show you. When you let someone teach you something, you are telling the person that you respect their talent, time and that you believe he knows what he is talking about. That you respect their experience. Always be willing to learn, because there is no way in hell to know everything.

　　當(dāng)你不清楚事物的原理時(shí)，讓專家給你解釋。當(dāng)你讓別人教你東西時(shí)，你是在告訴別人你尊敬他的天賦、時(shí)間，你相信他的話。你佩服他們的經(jīng)驗(yàn)。永遠(yuǎn)要樂于學(xué)習(xí)，因?yàn)檫@是認(rèn)識(shí)世間萬物的唯一途徑。

　　8. They are helpful

　　他們樂于助人

　　Never hesitate to help someone. It’s fairly simple but it goes a long way. Don’t be non-committal and say something vague like, “Can I help you?” because they might just say, “No, I’m good.” The key is to not sound patronizing. Be specific. “I had the same problem with this coffee machine in the morning. I think I have figured a way to make it work.” Offer in a way that feels mutually beneficial.

　　能助人時(shí)且助人。說起來容易做起來難。不要害怕承諾并說一些模糊的話，“需要我的幫忙嗎?”因?yàn)閯e人可能以為你只是說說，“不，我很好。”并要注意不要以恩人自居。要具體一點(diǎn).” 早晨我也碰到這個(gè)咖啡機(jī)出現(xiàn)過同樣的問題。我覺得我想到了一個(gè)辦法能把它修好。”用一種互惠互利的方式去幫助他人。

　　9. They are expressive

　　他們?cè)敢獗磉_(dá)自己

　　They are not bottled up. They feel something they verbalize it. Then be it pulling someone for not working hard or congratulating someone on their wonderful performance. This behaviour is not only restricted to work, but is applied to every aspect of their life.

　　他們不把話憋在肚子里。他們把感覺用語言表達(dá)出來。有人不努力工作就督促他，有人做得很好就祝賀他。這種方式不僅限于工作，而且適用于生活的方方面面。

　　10. They’re in charge of their emotions

　　他們能控制情感

　　Sometimes it is very important to stay mum. Especially when you’re angry or irritated or bitter, you don’t want to end up saying things you didn’t really mean to. So they take their time, they process their emotions, thin back to what happened, and then come to a decision about how to tackle it. Before you say anything, consider other’s feelings. Never be rash with words or actions.

　　有時(shí)保持沉默是非常重要的。尤其是當(dāng)你生氣、被激怒或很痛苦時(shí)。你不想說一些讓別人誤會(huì)的話。優(yōu)秀的人很從容，他們能控制自己的情感，想想發(fā)生過的事情，然后決定如何處理。在說話之前，考慮他人的感受。不要輕率說話或行動(dòng)。
