演講者:Tim Ferriss 演說(shuō)題目:認(rèn)清自己的恐懼,比明確目標(biāo)更重要! 通常情況下,我們最害怕做的事情,反而有可能是我們最需要做的。Tim Ferriss是一位早期科技投資者、暢銷書作家。他通過(guò)TED演講告訴大家:做事之前預(yù)想最壞的結(jié)果,三思而后行,可以幫助我們掌控那些自認(rèn)為做不到的事情。 中英文對(duì)照翻譯 So, this happy pic of me was taken in 1999. I was a senior in college, and it was right after a dance practice. I was really, really happy. And I remember exactly where I was about a week and a half later. 我這張快樂(lè)的照片拍攝于1999年。當(dāng)年我大四,拍攝于舞蹈練習(xí)之后。我當(dāng)時(shí)非常開(kāi)心。我清楚地記得在一周半之后, I was sitting in the back of my used minivan in a campus parking lot, when I decided I was going to commit suicide. I went from deciding to full-blown planning very quickly。And I came this close to the edge of the precipice. 我坐在我舊的小貨車后座,在校園停車場(chǎng),當(dāng)時(shí)我決定我要自殺。我很快下定決心并有了周全的計(jì)劃。然而我懸崖勒馬。 It's the closest I've ever come. And the only reason I took my finger off the trigger was thanks to a few lucky coincidences. And after the fact, that's what scared me the most: the element of chance. 死亡近在咫尺。我未扣動(dòng)扳機(jī)的唯一原因是一些幸運(yùn)的巧合。在此之后,我意識(shí)到真正讓我恐懼的是機(jī)會(huì)。 |
