积极点！10种你应该避免的危险想法

You are what you think about. Can you create a better life by simply thinking about it? Of course not– that’s absurd. But if your mind is dominated by negative thoughts, it’s hard to get motivated to make positive changes that will improve your life. Please consider these 10 dangerous thoughts you should avoid.
我思故我在。但仅靠思考就能创造更美好的生活吗？显然不是——这也太荒谬了。不过，要是你脑子里尽是些消极想法，那就很难作出积极改变进而改善自身生活。下面这10个负面想法你必须尽量避免。

1. “I guess this is as good as it gets.”
“我觉得这样就差不多了。”

The second you become complacent, your progress in life will come to a screeching halt. No matter how good you are at something, you could always stand to improve in some aspect. Learn a new craft, hobby or language to keep your mind creative and fresh. Discover ways to increase the quality of your work or decrease the time it takes to complete tasks you’re already good at (then you’ll have more time for the important things that really make you happy!). Make sure personal growth isn’t just something you talk about–make it a daily event.
一旦你骄傲自满，生活进步就会戛然而止。不论你对某件事多么擅长，总有可以不断提高的地方。学习一项新技能、发展一个新爱好或掌握一门新语言，让思维保持新鲜活力。想办法提高工作质量或减少完成娴熟任务的时间，这样你就能争取更多时间去做开心而重要的事情了！请记住：个人成长靠的不是嘴上功夫——而是日复一日的具体行动。

2. “I’ll just do the easy stuff.”
“我还是挑容易的事做吧。”

That thing that you dread doing more than anything else? The odds are, THAT is the very thing you need to do. Do you think employers are interested in hiring people who are only capable of accomplishing simple tasks that anybody else on the planet could perform? Of course not. Whether it’s for the purpose of making yourself more marketable in the workforce, improving your body and health or whatever the case may be, you need to embrace the fact that you sometimes have to do things that you don’t enjoy.Buckle down and do the thing you don’t want to do because like it or not, that’s probably the very thing you need to do.
你对那件事怕得要死？问题在于，那件事恰恰是你需要去做的。你以为公司愿意聘用只会做任何人都能完成的简单事情的员工吗？当然不可能。不论是为了在职场上更好地推销自己，还是为了保持身体健康，你都得面对这样的事实：有时你不得不做自己讨厌的事情。静下心来认真做你不愿意做的事情吧，因为不管喜不喜欢，这可能正是你亟需解决的问题。

3. “I don’t care about the details, tell me what to do!”
“我不在乎细节如何，直接告诉我该怎么做吧！”

If you don’t understand why a particular task needs to be done, it is unlikely you’ll be able to pay it the proper attention it deserves. And if you don’t ask follow-up questions about things you don’t understand, your results will suffer. Take ownership of every project. Do you have any ideas to contribute that might make the end result better? Say so. No one is going to fuss at you for asking questions or offering suggestions that will improve the end result.
如果你不清楚为何要做某件事，那你很可能会对它马虎大意。如果遇到不明白的问题你又不主动请教，那你可有苦头吃了。每项任务都该拿出主动精神。是不是有好想法能让结果更佳？那就说出来吧。如果你的问题或建议能改善最终结果，没人会反对阻止你的。

4. “I’m not good enough.”
“我不够优秀。”

If you tell yourself you’re not good enough, pretty enough, old enough, smart enough, or (insert adjective of your choosing here) enough, your lack of confidence will reflect in your words, stature, and mannerisms. Why should someone believe in you if you don’t believe in yourself? Surround yourself with positive people who will motivate you. Read books, articles, and studies about what you’re passionate about until you can truthfully say you are an expert in your field. Stop looking for the reasons you can’t do something and find the reasons you can. People often say, “You’re only as strong as your weakest link,” but this statement is blatantly false. You are as strong as your strongest link.
如果你总认为自己不够优秀、不够漂亮、不够资历、不够聪明或诸如此类，那么，这种自卑思想会从你的言行举止中透露出来。既然你连自己都不相信，那别人为何要相信你呢？多跟积极的人交往吧。多去阅读、多加思考，找出自己的优势，然后自信说出自己对某方面很擅长。别再找借口说自己不能怎样，多找理由暗示自己能够干什么。人们总说“人是不堪一击的”，但这完全荒谬至极。你绝对可以坚强如铁。

5. “It will never work.”
“这事儿根本没辙。”

Stop telling yourself you will fail because self-fulfilling prophecies almost always come true.
不要暗示自己会失败——因为心理暗示往往会成真。
