5 Things to Start Doing
5件开始做的事情

1. Start living.
开始生活。

Don’t simply exist in this world, grab life’s full potential by the horns and ride it out. Dare life to be all it can be. Make it a memorable, gripping account of accomplishment. Make it a thrilling, challenging, bold adventure. Make life a passionate, enduring, poetic romance.
不要只是生存在这个世界上,抓住生活的各种机会,努力争取。相信自己的人生充满着无尽的可能性。达到一个值得记住的成就。来一次令人兴奋充满挑战的冒险,把生活打造成一首激情非凡长存久远的浪漫诗篇。

Whatever it is you decide to do with your life, LIVE it! Get going! Move forward, aim high, plan your takeoff. Don’t just sit on the runway. Adjust your attitude and gain some altitude.
无论你决定干什么,都要好好生活下去!不断努力朝前看,目标高远点,计划着每一步。别总坐在那里。调整自己的态度,获得一些正能量吧。

2. Start taking chances that feel right.
感觉对了就抓住机会

Life will try to break you sometimes; nothing and no one can completely protect you from it. Remaining alone in your comfort zone won’t either, for endless, stagnant solitude will also break you with yearning.
生活有时会试图打击你,没有人能真正的全方位保护你。一直呆在自己的小空间里也不是长久之计,长久的孤独也会打破你的向往。

You’re human. You have to love. You have to feel. You have to strive. You are here to risk your heart by putting it into something you believe in. If you avoid taking these chances, one thing is certain, you will make is safely to death someday, feeling empty and unfulfilled.
你是个人,你需要去爱,你需要去感受,你需要去努力。你需要冒险把自己的心给那些你觉得可以信任的东西。如果你放弃了这些机会,我只能确定一点,你会平静的死去,空虚且失落。

3. Start indulging in meaningful challenges.
开始迎接有意义的挑战

What a true blessing it is that there is always work to be done. Because the real value of any accomplishment is not in the end result, it is in the process of accomplishment.
真正的幸福感就是永远有干不完的活,因为满足的真谛不是得到最后的结果,而是整个过程。

Success is a state of mind, and the most reliable way to reach that state is by working mindfully through a meaningful challenge. Such a challenge might seem somewhat overwhelming when you first encounter it, yet as you progress through it, you transform the work from overwhelming to fulfilling.
成功是一种精神状态,想要达到这样的状态,最靠谱的方法就是通过一次有意义的挑战来谨慎的工作。也许一开始碰到挑战时会让你不知所措。但是只要你经历过了,你就会从不知所措到得心应手。

4. Start nurturing your real family.
学会照顾自己的家庭

Family is built with love; it’s not determined by marriage certificates, divorce papers, and formal adoption documents. Families grow from the heart, through mutual love and respect. The only time family becomes nullified is when the ties in the heart are cut. If you cut the ties, these people are not your family. If you build the ties, these people are your family. So build ties with the right people and nurture them with love.
家庭基于爱,它不是由结婚证、离婚文件或是正式领养文件组成的,家庭在互爱和尊重的基础上从内心慢慢培养出来的产物。一旦心与心之间的联系被割断,家庭也会出现危机。如果你隔断了这些联系,那么这些人就不再是你的家人。如果你建立了联系,这些人就是你的家人。所以和那些正确的人建立关系,用爱来维系。

5. Start making time for YOU.
给自己空出时间

There is objective time meant for focused work, but also subjective time where the pulse of your life breathes – your relationships, your awareness, your hobbies, etc.
客观上的确该有时间用来专心工作,但主观上你也需要享受一下自己的生活——你的人际圈、你的意识以及你的爱好等等。

So find the time – the time to read, to smell the flowers, to take a walk in the wilderness, to share a laugh, to learn a fun craft, to try a new recipe, to explore somewhere new, to really be with someone you love, to paint your dreams, or even to just do nothing and relax for a while.
所以空点时间出来:读读书,闻闻花香,在野外散散步,大笑一次或是学习一次有趣的工艺,试试新菜谱,去新地方看看,或是和自己爱的人在一起,描绘一下自己的梦想,甚至是什么也不做仅仅放松自己。
