　　中文勵志美文看多了，來欣賞一下英文的吧。下面是小編給大家整理的，供大家參閱!

　　：活出精彩，活出生命的質量!

　　While there may be reasons in life to focus on just survival, to fully live, you must thrive!

　　儘管生活中有理由只關注生存，但如果要瀟灑走一回，你必須活出精彩。

　　Here Are 5 Things to Do Every Day to Ensure You Thrive.

　　以下五件事情可以確保你活得精彩。

　　1. Create art, even if you're not an artist! Art comes in many forms. Art could be decorating your home, cooking meals and gardening.

　　1、創造藝術，即便你不是藝術家。藝術的形式多種多樣。藝術可以是裝飾你的家園、煮飯做菜和園藝。

　　2. Create beauty in thought and deed as well as creating beautiful surroundings. Enjoying the natural beauty in nature inspires us to bring that beauty indoors. Beautiful surroundings create beautiful thoughts.

　　2、創造漂亮的周邊環境之外，也要在思維言行上創造美。享受自然之美激勵我們把美帶到室內，美好的環境會帶來美好的想法。

　　3. Love boldly. Do something special, make others feel important.

　　3、大膽去愛。做些特別的事情，讓別人感到自己的重要性。

　　4. Play more! It sounds easy; but is it really easy to set aside time just for fun when deadlines loom, and your phone keeps you alert to the fact that you have a very busy day ahead? Play is essential to your health and well-being. Get outside, chase your kids around, go dancing, watch a comedy act.

　　4、多玩!說起來容易，但當截止日期卻步步臨近、手機又不斷提醒你接下來又是繁忙的一天時，真的讓你勻出時間玩又談何容易?玩樂對身心健康至關重要。去戶外、和孩子追逐打鬧、去跳舞、去看看喜劇吧。

　　5. Create margin. Create space in your day for the unexpected and space just to breathe.

　　5、留白。一天中給意外留點時間和空間，透透氣兒。

　　Finding a bit of time each day to incorporate these simple ideas. It's time to regain control of your life, it's time to thrive!

　　每天勻一點時間把這些簡單的想法付諸實踐，該是重新把握人生、活出精彩的時候了!

　　：欲愛人 先愛己

　　I want to fall in love in 2016.

　　在2016年我渴望墜入愛河

　　I want to fall head over heels this year. By the very end of it, I want to be bursting at the seams of all my scars with a love burning happily in my heart.

　　這一年我希望自己愛得死心塌地。待到年末之際，我希望衝破所有創傷，讓愛的火焰在心中快樂地燃燒。

　　I want the authentic feeling that surpasses dreaming -- a love that is true and never fleeting. I want this for myself as well as for you. I'd like it for the world, if possible.

　　我渴望那種超越夢境的真實感覺——那種真正的、永不流逝的愛。我希望你我皆有這種感覺。如果可能的話，全世界都能享受這種感覺。

　　I want to be every fear I've ever held in the darkest parts of my heart transformed into the purest desire for truth. I want to feel the magic of love singing my soul to sleep.

　　我希望我內心最陰暗處曾擁有的每一份恐懼都轉化為對真愛最熱切的渴望。我期望感受到那種魔力，那種愛情唱著歌讓靈魂入眠的魔力。

　　2016年我想這樣去愛……

　　I want to fall in love before I fall for you.

　　在愛上你之前，我想先墜入愛河

　　So I would like to fall in love many times this year, so that I may know how extraordinary you are when you appear.

　　所以今年我想墜入愛河很多次，次數多到你一出現我就知道你是多麼的與眾不同。

　　I must fall in love this year so I can understand the magnitude of what you will be -- of what you will mean to me, and I to you.

　　我今年一定要墜入愛河，這樣我才能知道你的出現是多麼的重要——關於你對我、我對你意味著什麼。

　　That's how I want to fall in love in 2016. I want to know love before I know you. I want to feel its essence and understand its woes. I want to fall in love this way so that I am full of so much love to hand to you, and I am waiting patiently for the day when I can give it all to you.

　　這些就是2016年我想去愛的方式。我想在認識你之前先懂得愛，我想感受到愛情的本質並懂得它的悲哀。我想如此去愛，這樣我就會有足夠的愛來傳遞給你，我會耐心地等待著那一天的到來，在那天我將把所有愛都傳遞給你。

　　：態度決定生活

　　An elderly carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer ***contractor*** of his plans to leave the house building business and live a more leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family. He would miss the paycheck, but he needed to retire. They could get by.

　　一位老木匠打算退休了。他向自己所在的建築公司僱主請辭，表示想要和自己的老伴以及大家庭去過一種更加閒適的生活。他會想念領薪水的日子，但他還是該退休了，他想日子總是能過下去的。

　　The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favor. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and usedinferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end his career.

　　老闆很捨不得自己的好員工離開，他對木匠說請你再建最後一座房子吧，就算是幫我個忙。木匠答應了，但很快就明顯可以看出他的心已經不在工作上了。他用拙劣的技巧和劣質的材料建這座房子，用這種狀態來結束他的職業生涯其實是一種遺憾。

　　When the carpenter finished his work and the builder came to inspect the house, the contractor handed the front-door key to the carpenter. "This is your house," he said, "my gift to you."

　　木匠完成了他的工作，負責人來驗收房屋，老闆將這座房屋的前門鑰匙遞到了木匠手上，說：“這房子現在歸你了，作為我給你的禮物。”

　　What a shock! What a shame! If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live in the home he had built none too well.

　　木匠頓時感到很震驚。多可惜啊!如果他知道是在為自己修建這所房子的話，他會完全以另一種態度來對待。而現在他不得不住在這座自己胡亂修建的房子裡了。

　　So it is with us. We build our lives in a distracted way, reacting rather than acting, willing to put up less than the best. At important points we do not give the job our best effort. Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built. If we had realized, we would have done it differently.[/en

　　這個故事也映射了我們的生活狀況。我們並沒有用心經營自己的生活，總是抱怨而缺少實際行動，並沒有全力以赴做到最好。最重要的一點是，我們沒有為自己的工作付出百分之百的努力。然後，當我們回過頭看為自己創造的生活條件時我們震驚了，和木匠一樣我們後悔了，要是知道我們是在為自己的生活打拼，我們可能就會用一種完全不同的態度來對待了。

　　Think of yourself as the carpenter. Think about your house. Each day you hammer a nail, place a board, or erect a wall. Build wisely. It is the only life you will ever build. Even if you live it for only one day more, that day deserves to be lived graciously and withdignity. The plaque on the wall says, "Life is a do-it-yourself project."

　　想象一下你就是這個木匠，想象你正在建造這座房子，你每天釘進一顆釘子、安裝一塊板子或者築起一面牆。請用心對待吧，這是唯一一個你為自己打造的生活。即使你只在裡面住上一天，這一天也要活得有光彩、有尊嚴。正如格言所說，“生活是一個只有靠自己才能完成的專案。”

　　Who could say it more clearly? Your life today is the result of your attitudes and choices in the past. Your life tomorrow will be the result of your attitudes and the choices you make today.

　　誰還能說的再清楚些呢?你今天的生活就是你自己過去的態度和選擇的結果，你未來的生活就是你現在的態度和選擇的結果。
