　　的流逝在新的知识，学问却在需要它的姗姗来迟。早期生活应该极其有用的我却才，本可以帮助我在年里错误跟伤害----大部分曾经强加于别人身上过。

　　我不生活会无故地富裕而有情趣，那浪漫的妄想。我都充满动荡和不安。也不同意错误是于某个地方好帮助学习的。错误我犯的- ---出于无知、害怕希望人都喜欢的愚蠢愿望----了的生活工作有更少的更多的快乐(还包括)。下面有几点是我很久以前就希望能够的。期待能帮助大家，是小部份人，能够重蹈覆辙。

　　Most people learn over time, but often learning comes too late to be fully useful. There are certainly many things that I know now that would have been extremely useful to me earlier in my life; things that could have saved me from many of the mistakes and hurts I suffered over the years—and most of those that I inflicted on others too。

　　I don’t buy the romantic notion that my life has been somehow richer or more interesting because of all the times I screwed up; nor that the mistakes were “put” there to help me learn. I made them myself—through ignorance, fear, and a dumb wish to have everyone like me—and life and work would have been less stressful and more enjoyable (and certainly more successful) without them. So here are some of the things I wish I had learned long ago. I hope they may help a few of you avoid the mistakes that I made back then。

　　1.平常心。

　　太多我曾经为其兴奋，为其焦虑，亦或是浪费了我精力的到最后却被是无关紧要的。幸福生活里极其微小的一部分。我希望早点，以便能把精力都投入到关乎幸福的事，而。

　　Most of it doesn’t matter.So much of what I got excited about, anxious about, or wasted my time and energy on, turned out not to matter. There are only a few things that truly count for a happy life. I wish I had known to concentrate on those and ignore the rest。

　　2.世界上痛苦与仇恨最大源泉是对的执迷。

　　恐怖组织和激进分子，抓住的不放，或把一小片土地的历史归属杀戮的理由，更或是修正几百年前的所谓的历史错误。

　　The greatest source of misery and hatred in this world is clinging to past hurts.Look at all the terrorists and militant groups that hark back to some event long gone, or base their justification for killing on claims of some supposed historical right to a bit of land, or redress for a wrong done hundreds of years ago。

　　3.盲目追赶潮流是对精神和智力的扼杀

　　你可以廉价的时尚木偶，也可以独一无二的你，都在于的。信仰的鸦片，流行才是。

　　Following the latest fashion, in work or in life, is spiritual and intellectual suicide.You can be a cheap imitation of the ideal of the moment; or you can be a unique individual. The choice is yours. Religion isn’t the opiate of the masses, fashion is。

　　4.等待有把握时再去做事，意味着永远的等待。

　　人能做的最大的冒险，乐意在公共场合经常暴露的愚昧。能比学得更快。“哎呀”， 乐趣。

　　Waiting to do something until you can be sure of doing it exactly right means waiting for ever.One of the greatest advantages anyone can have is the willingness to make a fool of themselves publicly and often. There’s no better way to learn and develop. Heck, it’s fun too。

　　5.有人抱怨你太特立独行，恭喜你，你正的路上

　　谁愿意像动物活着?强的家伙们不希望你的意愿去做，希望你停止给制造麻烦并听从的命令。但你得，你在卑躬屈膝的又能活出自我。

　　If people complain that you’re too fond of going your own way and aren’t fitting in, you must be on the right track.Who wants to live life as a herd animal? The guys in power don’t want you to fit in for your own sake; they want you to stop causing them problems and follow their orders. You can’t have the freedom to be yourself and meekly fit in at the same time。

　　6.你将工作等同于生活，你将为工作而生活

　　和人，当艺术家和音乐家的工作是的生活，我感到很困惑。其实那工作，的自我。除非你有抵挡的激情，恰巧也你从中得以谋生，请永远记住，工作手段，而目的，的目享受生活。在目的的，尽地少花在手段上。傻瓜才是为工作而生活。

　　If you make your work your life, you’re making your life into hard work. Like most people,I confused myself by looking at people like artists and musicians whose life’s “work” fills their time. That isn’t work. It’s who they are. Unless you have some overwhelming passion that also happens to allow you to earn a living doing it, always remember that work should be a means to an end: living an enjoyable life. Spend as little time on the means as possible consistent with achieving the end. Only idiots live to work。

　　7.永久的胜利者

　　踏上冠军宝座是件好。但不要梦想着可以永久占据位置，最糟糕，你正决定为达此目的而不择手段。

　　8.试图取悦别人是徒劳无益的做法

　　总有些人会对你发飙。你接触，在也会不喜欢、贬低、轻视或你。，你永远也不别人真正的需要，你为此所做的努力付诸东流。放松些吧，爱你会包容你的过失，才是在乎。人，都不花5分钟去考虑。

　　Trying to please other people is largely a futile activity. Everyone will be mad at you sometime.Most of the people you deal with will dislike, disparage, belittle, or ignore what you say or do most of the time. Besides, you can never really know what others do want, so a good deal of whatever you do in that regard will go to waste. Be comforted. Those who love you will probably love you regardless, and they are the ones whose opinions are worth caring about. The rest aren’t worth five minutes of thought between them。

　　9.破坏关系的最快最简单的方法听信谣言

　　浪费你的最糟糕是传播谣言。传播流言蜚语好比瘟疫的携带者，相比之下，蟑螂都比干净、善良。

　　The quickest and simplest way to wreck any relationship is to listen to gossip.The worst way to spend your time is spreading more. People who spread gossip are the plague-carriers of our day. Cockroaches are clean, kindly creatures in comparison。

　　10.你能做的，是和敬而远之。

　　混蛋也能传染，你和呆的越长，你也越有染上混蛋的习气你就混蛋。

　　You can rarely, if ever, please, placate, change, or mollify an asshole.The best thing you can do is stay away from every one you encounter. Being an asshole is a contagious disease. The more time you spend around one, the more likely you are to catch it and become one too。

　　11.努力加倍，期望减半

　　花掉你计划的两倍，最后却只你一半的期望结果。没好为此沮丧的，(俗话说：事倍功半)让它去吧，你要前行。

　　Everything takes twiceas long as you plan for and produces results about half as good as you hoped. There’s no reason to be downhearted about this. Just allow for it and move on。

　　12.接纳

　　你努力，你都逃避。除了，你还能谁呢?你可以扮演和假装，但扮演和假装你。你都接纳，努力挖掘已东西，谁有义务接纳你呢?

　　However hard you try, you can’t avoid being yourself.Who else could you be? You can act and pretend, but the person acting and pretending is still you. And if you won’t accept yourself—and do the best you can with what you have—who then has any obligation to accept you?

　　13.人是奇怪的偏执狂

　　撒谎者撒谎，骗子行骗。人对你倾诉的，通常已在其它人的面前倾诉过，想要回应。忠诚的朋友，遭受的冤屈依旧忠诚。

　　People are oddly consistent.Liars usually tell lies. Cheaters cheat whenever it suits them. A person who confides in you has usually confided in several others first—but not got the response they wanted. A loyal friend will stay loyal under enormous amounts of thoughtless abuse。

　　14.世界上最大的噪音是的抱怨

　　The loudest noise in the world is the sound of people whining.Don’t add to it。

　　15.谈到公众谎言，比预算数字更令人震惊的

　　把折腾上面，是浪费。既使(奇迹中的奇迹!) 你是实事求是并且的， 人也愚蠢。

　　When it comes to blatant lies, there are none more egregious than budget figures.Time spent agonizing over them is time wasted. Even if (miracle of miracles!) yours are honest and accurate, no one else will have been so foolish。
