Life is short. It may feel like it takes forever sometimes, but the reality is that you live, and a short time later, you die. It happens so quickly, many people don't even realize they had a life until it's already over.

　　生命如此短暫。我們有時候覺得生命怎么也走不完，實際上，你現(xiàn)在活著，過不了多久，就會死去。人生真是轉(zhuǎn)眼一瞬間的事情，很多人到臨死前才意識到這一生已經(jīng)結(jié)束。

　　1、Stop Doubting Yourself

　　If you don't believe in yourself, nobody will. Success starts in your mind, and if all you're doing is putting yourself down and predicting failure, it'll become a self-fulfilling prophecy. Instead of doubting yourself, think positively. Not only will you be happier and more successful, you'll spread it to everyone around you.

　　不要懷疑自己

　　如果你自己都不相信自己，那沒人會相信你。成功源于你的頭腦，如果你所做的是不斷地看扁自己，預(yù)言著未來的失敗，這就真的會成為現(xiàn)實。與其懷疑自己，不如積極的考慮問題。不僅會讓自己更加開心和成功，你還能夠感染到周圍的人。

　　2、Stop Being Negative

　　Now that you're done doubting yourself, stop doubting others. You don't like when people are critical of you, so stop being critical of others. Think about how you make other people feel、even if you have good intentions, people don't like hearing negativity.

　　不要那么消極

　　現(xiàn)在你不要再懷疑自己了，也別再懷疑身邊的人。你不希望被人對你挑剔，那么也不要再去挑剔身邊的人。想想你給別人帶來的什么樣的感受吧--即使出發(fā)點是好的，別人也不想聽到那么多消極的事情呀。

　　3、Stop Procrastinating

　　I don't feel like procrastinating right now、I'll do it tomorrow. When you procrastinate, you remain stagnant. Whatever you're putting off doesn't go away; resolve the problem, and move on. You'll be much happier in the long run.

　　不要再拖延

　　我現(xiàn)在不想做，還是留到明天吧。一旦開始拖延，其實你已經(jīng)停滯不前了。你拖延的事情不會自行解決。解決問題，繼續(xù)前行吧。從長遠(yuǎn)角度來說你會更加快樂。

　　4、Stop Being Mean

　　It's completely possible to step on someone's toes without meaning to、it happens all the time. There's no need to pile on by purposefully doing mean things, so make a conscious effort to stop being mean. If someone wrongs you, let it go. There's no need to seek vengeance unless that's the type of person you want to be.

　　不要那么刻薄

　　無意踩到別人的情況真的有可能會發(fā)生--常常會發(fā)生。但沒必要去處心積慮的做一些不好的事情，所以要有意識地讓自己不要那么刻薄。如果有人對你無理地對待，隨他們?nèi)ズ昧?。沒必要去報復(fù)，除非你也想成為那一類的人。

　　5、Stop Being Lazy

　　Lazy people are annoying、it's like pulling teeth getting them to do anything. If I can't do something as simple as going to a movie with you without having to factor in an hour of convincing you to get your lazy butt out of bed, I'd rather go alone. People have enough trouble motivating themselves; don't make your friends and family waste their valuable energy motivating you as well.

　　別再偷懶

　　懶人真的很招人煩--得像趕驢磨墨一樣逼著他們做事情。如果我想跟你看一場電影，卻不得不花一個小時說服你起床，那我寧愿一個人去看。給自己動力都不是件容易的事情，就別讓朋友和家人浪費寶貴的精力再來給你動力了吧。

　　6、Stop Complaining

　　We all have problems, and sometimes we need to vent to someone. That's acceptable, but pay attention to how often you're venting. We all love helping our friends and family, but when all you get from someone is negativity, it's easier to cut them off than help, especially if they're always complaining about the same things.

　　不要再抱怨

　　我們都有麻煩事，有時候總想跟別人傾訴。這可以理解，但要注意你吐槽的頻率。我們都喜歡幫助朋友和家人，但如果從那個人身上我只能感知到負(fù)能量，那么還是離得越遠(yuǎn)越好吧，尤其是當(dāng)他們在反復(fù)抱怨同一件事的時候。

　　7、Stop Wasting Time

　　I've said it before, and I'll say it again: time is the most valuable resource we have. Don't waste your time on unproductive things. If you want to explore the world's dark corners, that's great. I still associate with people who have not-so-kosher careers, but I don't hang out with those people at the expense of my own short- and long-term goals.

　　不要再浪費時間

　　雖然之前說過了，但我還想再說一遍：時間是我們擁有的最寶貴的資源，不要把時間浪費在沒有意義的事情上面，如果你想探索這個世界的黑暗角落，很好。我也認(rèn)識一些沒有固定工作的一些自由職業(yè)者，但我不會以犧牲自己的短期長期目標(biāo)為代價和他們出去玩樂。

　　- Stop Listening to Haters

　　No matter what you want to do in life, there's always someone around to tell you why it can't and won't work. I can come up with millions of reasons Twitter won't work, and yet it's one of the most popular social media sites on the web. My opinion didn't stop Twitter's success any more than it convinced Kobe Bryant to quit the NBA or Josh Hartnett to stop acting. Why would you let someone's opinion stop you?

　　不要聽討厭的人說話

　　無論你想干什么，總會有人告訴你不要這么做，沒有用的。我可以想出成百萬條推特不實用的理由，但它還是互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上最流行的社交網(wǎng)站之一。我的想法不會阻止推特的成功，就像你無法勸科比退出NBA或喬什·哈奈特不要當(dāng)演員了一樣，都毫無意義。那么為什么要讓別人的想法阻止你呢？

　　8、Stop Being Wasteful

　　You don't finish your meals, and away food instead. You leave the faucet running when you brush your teeth, pouring precious water down the drain. You drive places you could easily walk, burning gasoline （a non-renewable resource）。 You are wasteful, and it needs to stop.

　　不要再浪費

　　你飯沒吃完，然后扔掉食物；刷牙的時候還開著水龍頭，就讓寶貴的水嘩嘩的流走；明明可以走到的地方你偏要開車，燃燒汽油（無法再生資源）。如果你浪費了，那就趕緊停止這一惡習(xí)。

　　9- Stop Taking Everything Personally

　　People get offended about the strangest things. Take Kendrick Lamar's now-infamous verse on “Control” this summer: he called out a list of a dozen rappers he thinks he's better than （and he's right）。 The internet went crazy, and rappers all over the industry rushed to their mics to record a response. The thing is, all K-Dot said is he's the best rapper. Everyone took it personally, and that's exactly what he was going for. The lesson to learn from this is that not everything is about you, and if you're easily upset, someone will use that to their advantage.

　　別把每件事太往心里去

　　人們會因為一些奇怪的事情感到被侵犯。就拿Kendrick Lamar這個夏天備受爭議的歌曲《Control》為例：他在歌詞中挑釁了一些他認(rèn)為比他弱的說唱歌手（的確是這樣），一石激起千層浪，整個說唱界的歌手都蜂擁錄歌作為回?fù)?。重點在于，所有的人都認(rèn)為自己是最好的說唱者，每個人都更看重自己，這就是他的目的所在。這件事教給我們的無非就是不是所有的事都要圍著你轉(zhuǎn)，如果你是玻璃心，有人會利用這一點。

　　10- Just Stop, and Breathe…

　　No matter what you're doing in life or how your day is going, there's always room to just stop for a moment and just breathe. Try it right now to celebrate getting through this list of everything you're doing wrong.

　　停下來，深呼吸！！

　　無論你現(xiàn)在在干什么，這一天過得怎么樣，你都需要好好停一下深呼吸。不如現(xiàn)在就歇一歇，犒賞自己總算挺過了一些錯事。
