生活这样向前走：做很多人不会去做的21件事

Many people want to get ahead. Yet, most sit back and critique those who are successful. They wonder how a few are able to excel where the majority struggle.
每个人都想朝前走。当然总有那些在你身后嫉妒你成功的人们。他们不懂为什么只有少数人能走过大多数人都无法逾越的困境。

If you want to get ahead, there is not a shortcut or secret. However, one place to start is to do the things that successful people do. The things that other people don’t or won’t do.
如果你想要进步，没有捷径或秘密可循。但是，你可以从做那些成功人士做的事开始着手。做那些其他人不做或永远不会做的事情。

Get Up Early – Not enough time in your day? Get up earlier. Starting your day before others do, empowers you to get more done while others are sleeping. You will soon find that you accomplish before the day begins than most people do all day.
早起：一天的时间不够用？早起吧。比其他人更早的开始自己的一天，在别人睡觉的时候你已经完成了更多的事情。你很快就会发现，你能比其他人一天之中完成的东西多很多。

Prepare for Your Day – Head into your day prepared. Do your homework. Prepare for the events of your day whether it is school, your job, or even having fun.
每天做规划：要计划好一天的生活。做作业，无论是学习，工作还是玩乐，都要计划好所有的事情。

Exercise- Too many people say that they want to workout, but few do. Do some sort of physical activity each and every day. Keeping your body in shape, motivates your mind and productivity.
锻炼身体：太多人说他们想去运动，但是很少有人真去做。每天做一些健身运动。保持你的身材，激活头脑保持能量。

Finish Ahead of Deadlines – It seems that our society had become numb to the concept of deadlines. However, to avoid lost opportunities, penalties, and other life friction, ensure that you finish ahead of deadlines whether for a simple task, a bill, or a major project.
不要拖到最后一刻：这个社会对限期的概念似乎越发淡薄。然而，要避免失去机会，受到惩罚以及其他的不如意，我们就要确保在限期之前完成任务，无论是简单的小任务，账单，还是大的项目。

Have Goals – Successful people have goals. There has been a rising trend lately, to “not have goals.” All this ensures is that you won’t fail because you haven’t tried to attain anything. Instead of going wherever life takes you, set goals and choose your own path.
有目标：成功的人都有自己的目标。最近“不要目标”的趋势有所增长。因为不用试着得到什么，你永远也不会失败。与其随波逐流，不如为自己设下目标，走出自己的路。

Take Chances – No one ever won by sitting in their comfort zone. You have to get up and get out. You have to be willing to take risks… sometimes big, sometimes small. Only going outside our boundaries can we grow.
把握机会：没有人在舒适的生活中获胜。你需要站起来走出去，你要做好冒险的准备，无论大小。只有走出障碍，我们才会成长。

Don’t Complain – Complaining is a waste of time. It is procrastination in disguise. Instead of whining about something, do something about it.
不要抱怨：抱怨太浪费时间了。它是拖延的伪装。与其一直抱怨着，不如做些事来改善。

Dream Big – Many people dream too small. Think big… then dream bigger! Push yourself to even higher levels than you thought possible. We are all stronger than we think.
有大梦想：很多人的梦想都太小了。想多点，梦想也会更大！逼着自己到更高的层次，即使连自己都从未想过。我们都比自己想象的更坚强。

Have a Hobby – All work and no play doesn’t do the body or mind good. Have a hobby and let your passion breathe energy into all areas of your life. It doesn’t matter what it is, as long as it drives you.
有个爱好：只工作不玩耍对身体和头脑都没好处。有个爱好，让你的热情能把能量带进生活的方方面面。无论爱好是什么，只要能推进你就好。

Learn New Things – Many stop learning the day they leave school. Successful people are lifelong learners. Never pass up the chance to learn a new fact or a new skill.
学习新东西：很多人离开学校之后就不再学习了。成功的人一辈子都在学习。从不放弃任何学习新知识或新技能的机会。
