SHE《612星球》

有一段時間,我的生活略略有些灰暗,感受不到快樂,不愿與人交流,擔心所有的事情,什么都不對勁。那段時間,唯一能讓我覺得安心的除了和我的父母聊天,就是和孩子在一起。

孩子的世界很簡單,想笑就笑,想鬧就鬧,什么遠慮近憂,抵不上一顆糖重要。長大了,想要的東西就越來越多了,再也不是一顆糖能滿足的了。當然,我們得到的也是越來越多了,可是我們的快樂卻似乎越來越少。

圣埃克絮佩里在《小王子》里說:“All grown-ups were once children... but only few of them remember it. ?看到這句話的時候,我瞬間就淚崩了。我知道,我們都需要這樣一本書,找到最初的自己!

小王子說:“One loves the sunset, when one is so sad.” 我想是的;

小王子說:“Love does not mean to look at each other, but to look the same direction” 我想是的;

小王子說:“It is the time you have wasted for your rose that makes your rose so important. ”我想是的。

The Alchemist《牧羊少年奇幻之旅》

作 ?者:Paulo Coelho ? ?保羅.科埃略

豆瓣評分:8.9/10

難度:??(有力量的故事,用簡單的語言緩緩道來)

無意中看到俞敏洪的一篇讀后感,關于這本小書,他提到了小說中反復提到的一句話:

When a person really desires something,all the universe conspires to help that person to realize his dream.”?

只這一句,就直擊心田,決心一看。

我們一直都在追尋,追尋那些我們認為的珍寶。可是到底什么才是生命在中最珍貴的呢?有多少人在追尋的過程中只想得到,卻不愿意有絲毫給予;有多少人在追尋的過程中不愿意放棄過去,卻想有新的開始;又有多少人還記得最初所想要追尋的東西呢?

請記得:“If you are brave to say "good bye", life will reward you with a new "hello".

請記得:“The secret of life is to fall seven times and to get up eight times.

The Notebook 《戀戀筆記本》

作 ?者:Nicholas Sparks ? ?尼古拉斯.斯帕克思

豆瓣評分:7.9/10

難度:???(你喜歡愛情故事嗎?)

(圖片來自網絡)

有不少人應該看過《戀戀筆記本》的電影,可是我依然覺得,書能帶給人更多的想象空間。

這是一個很美的愛情故事:在那一家風光迤邐的私人療養院,每天都會有一位神秘的老男人準時拜訪一位患有老年癡呆癥的老女人。他慢慢坐下,然后在腿上攤開一本褪色的筆記本,輕聲地為女人講述其中記載的一個又一個故事,而女人呢?每當聽到日記中的字句,臉上就會有異樣的神采,仿佛再次回到那段夢中的歲月……

一次相遇,一生相伴,諾亞的每一句情話都可以作為撩妹利“句”,一翻開,就會使一場浪漫之旅······

In your life, There will be at least one time that you forget yourself for someone, asking for no result, no company, no ownership nor love. Just ask for meeting you in my most beautiful years.

The best love is The kind that awakens The soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds.

The Willpower Instinct 《自控力》

作者: Kelly McGonigal 凱利·麥格尼格爾

豆瓣評分:9.0/10

難度:?????

你是不是懶癌、拖延癥患者呢?是不是總想著要堅持做點什么,可要么就是三分鐘熱度,要么就是三天打魚兩天曬網呢?如果是這樣,就來讀一讀這本The Willpower Instinct 《自控力》吧!

這本書是斯坦福大學的美女教授寫的,語言總體上來說是比較簡單的,只是會有一些專業的詞匯需要稍微注意一下,書中生動的描寫了一些實驗和她在工作生活中的例子,使理論變得有趣。擁有自控力,讓我們從堅持讀完這本書開始。

However, many people treat themselves like they are still children -- and frankly, they act more like abusive parents than supportive caregivers. They criticize themselves whenever they give in to temptation or fail in their own eyes:" You're lazy! What's the matter with you." Each failure is used as evidence that they need to be even stricter with themselves. "You can't be trusted to do anything you say you will."

If you think that the key to greater willpower is being harder on yourself, you are not alone. But you are wrong. Study after study shows that self-criticism is consistently associated with less motivation and worse self-control. It is also of the single biggest predictions of depression, which drains both "I will" power and "I want " power. In contrast, self-compassion - being supportive and kind to yourself, especially in the face of stress and failure - is associated with more motivation and better self-control.
