一个叫木头,一个叫马尾

人生最难学会和接受的是什么?

最近没技术可分享,摘一些以前我译的文章到这里。

这一篇摘自我16年所译的Quora[1]上的一篇文章。


What is the most difficult thing to learn and accept about life?

  1. People usually aren't listening. They are either thinking of what they are going to say next, or something else entirely.

人们通常不会听你在说什么。他们要么想着自己接下来要说什么,要么心思完全在别的事情上。

  1. Everyone is insecure about something, it's not just you.

每个人都会对某些事表现出不安全感,不只是你。

  1. You are going to die no matter what.

不管怎样,你总有一天会死去。

  1. Your kids will experience hardship.

你的孩子将经历困难。

  1. The bigger an organization is, the harder it is to make a change even if the need is so obvious.

一个组织越大,要改变它越难,即使问题是显而易见的。

  1. Some people are bad and have bad intentions.

一些人是坏人,他们别有居心。

  1. Many people (not all) will steal 100fromyoutodayevenifitmeansmissingtheopportunitytoearn1000 from you next week.

许多人(并非所有人)今天会从你身上偷走100元,尽管这意味着他们会失去下周从你身上赚取1000元的机会。

  1. You will never be 100% sure about decision ever. But always make a decision because it's better to go back and fix it than to never make it at all.

你永远不会对决定有100%的把握。但一定要做出决定,因为回去修正它总比根本不做决定要好。

  1. There is ALWAYS someone who makes more money than you, is more fit, has a better looking spouse, has an easier life, good things happen to them. Usually more than just one.

总有人比你挣钱多,比你健康,伴侣更好看,生活更容易,还比你好运。而且这类人还不少。

  1. How you react to an event, problem, emotion, or anything, is more important than the actual event, problem, emotion or whatever. You cannot control your emotions, you cannot control others, all you can control is how you are going to react. Sometimes it's easy but usually it's really really hard.

对于一个事件、问题、情绪或别的事情,你的反应比事件本身更重要。你无法控制情绪,无法控制其他人,你可以控制的是你的反应。有时这是容易做到的,但多数时候真的很难。
