篇一
自己主宰的一天An Empowered Day
If you catch yourself feeling sorry for yourself, you have discovered a valuable opportunity. You can transform the negative energy of self-pity into positive energy to improve your situation.
如果你發現你對自己抱有遺憾,那麼你就發現了一個寶貴的機會。你可以將這種自哀自憐的消極情緒轉化為積極的能量來改善現狀。
When you have been disappointed by life, take a step back and look at the positive value in that disappointment. duanwenw You have a powerful reason to become more determined than ever before.
當你對生活失望時,退一步來看,找到這次失望中積極的、有價值的部分。你有足夠的理由比以前更加堅定。
Life has its ups and its downs. And you can choose to benefit from both.
人生中的遭遇時好時壞,而你可以選擇從這兩者中都有所收穫。
Success is not a matter of having everything go your way. Success comes from choosing to find the value in whichever way things go.
成功並不意味著所有的事情都按照你的意願進行。成功源於你嘗試從事物發展的任何一種方式中找到有益之處。
Don’t waste your time and energy making judge ments about whether you are having a good day or a bad day. Decide to take whatever comes and make it into an empowered day.
不要浪費時間和精力去評判這一天你過得好不好。下定決心迎接一切,由你自己主宰這一天。
Whatever form it takes, life is always supplying you with the raw material for fulfilment4.Make good use of it all to move your life steadily in the direction of your dreams.
生活無論以何種形式出現,總會給你提供獲。
篇二
活著的力量The Power to Live
You are much more powerful, creative and effective than you give yourself credit for. You are worthy of the best in life because you are able to give your very best to each day.
你比你自己認為的更強大、更有創造力、更有效率。你值得擁有生活中最好的東西,因為每天你都能夠活出最好的自己。
Start that fortunate process in motion. Open yourself to the positive possibilities of this day and work to bring the best of them to reality.
行動吧,開始你的幸運之旅!開啟心門,擁抱今天一切積極的可能性,努力使這些可能性變為現實。
Whatever good, valuable or meaningful things you can imagine, you can create. duanwenw Though it requires effort and commitment, you are absolutely capable of making it happen.
任何好的、有價值的或有意義的事物,只要你能想到,你就能創造出來。雖然這需要努力和承諾,但是你絕對有能力做到。
Remind yourself that this moment is not merely happening to you. It is happening through you.
提醒自己,這一刻並不僅僅發生在你身上,而是因為有你,這一刻才發生。
You can make it happen in a way that brings great richness to your world and fulfilment to your life. You can choose to be a positive force by directing your potential energy into the things that truly matter.
你可以使之發生,通過極大地豐富你的世界,實現你想要的生活。你可以選擇變為積極的推動力,將自己的潛力運用在真正重要的事物上。
Right now, you have great power to do great things. Step forward, and put that power to use.
就是現在,你擁有強大的力量去做偉大的事情。邁步向前,運用併發揮這力量吧!
篇三
重新定義自己Redefine Yourself
How do you define yourself? As a mother, daughter, wife, friend, husband, son, teacher, student, lawyer, accountant, or any one of a myriad different titles? Or do you define yourself by others’ perception1 of you? Do any of these come close to your own knowledge, your personal experience of whom you really are?
你是怎樣定義自己的?一位母親,女兒,妻子,朋友,丈夫,兒子,老師,學生,律師,會計師,還是其他什麼頭銜呢?或者你是根據別人對你的感覺而給自己下定義?這些定義的依據與你的學識,個人經歷和本質有何相似之處嗎?
In your quiet moments, in times of inexplicable joy, have you had the overwhelming and yet clear and lucid feeling of total invincibility — a feeling that nothing can hold you down, that you can accomplish anything and everything if you put your mind to it? duanwenw Well, that feeling is not a random one.
在你靜心獨處之時,在無法言說的快樂之中,你是否有一種無法抵抗的神勇之感——那是一種戰無不勝,攻無不克的感覺——若你傾心投入,可以完成任何事情的感覺。這種感覺並不是隨意就能產生的。
What is it that gets in the way of your exquisite power?
是什麼妨礙了你神聖力量的發揮呢?
Consider for a moment an iron bar that has magnetic power inherently in it. It will attract or repel things based on it’s own intrinsic magnetism. Over time, if this bar begins to rust, its power will begin to diminish. The oxidative4 damage from the environment that the magnet has not been able to resist, will render it ineffective, eventually. This in no way means the iron bar is not capable of its latent, original power. All it needs to do is shed its rust. Or, consider if you will, a light bulb that is lit, but covered with soot. As long as the soot remains, it will be unable to fulfill the very purpose it was meant to serve to radiate light.
試想,一個有天然磁性的鐵棒,其固有的磁效能使其對別的物體產生吸引或排斥。但時間久了,鐵棒就會生鏽,磁力便開始逐漸消失。磁體無法抵制外界環境對其的氧化作用,磁力最終失效。這並不是意味著鐵棒不具有潛在的原始磁力,只是需要將鏽漬除掉而已。或者你也可以想象一個亮著的燈泡,上面罩了一層煤灰,若煤灰不除,燈泡就永遠無法實現其照亮的功效。
According to ancient Vedic texts, this is in effect what happens to the human experience. The infinite power that is naturally present in each and every one of us by virtue of our own consciousness, can be rendered ineffective if not tended to properly. The stress of our lifestyle, the pollution of our environment, and the collective stress of our world keeps us from functioning at our full potential.
根據古代的梵文記載,類似的現象也曾出現在人類的歷程中。一種天生的無窮能量蘊含在每個人身上,若進行錯誤的引導,就不能淋漓盡致地將其發揮出來。生活方式、環境汙染和各方面的壓力都妨礙了我們潛能的發揮。
But there are remedies: incorporate modalities in your lifestyle that effectively combat stress and help keep you centered. Some of these options are:
挽救的方法是:調節生活方式,有效地應付壓力,使生活有側重點。其措施包括:
Be aware of what you eat, and what you use — both on yourself, and in your environment. Choose natural, organic products.
熟悉你所吃的和所用的對自己及環境的影響。擇自然和有機的產品而用。
