Today, we are going to share the habit of writing in a diary.
今天我們來(lái)分享關(guān)于寫(xiě)日記的習(xí)慣。
People are always busy trying to create a better life. They think by being constantly busy, the quality of their life is good. But, in fact, they’ve lost their life. This is a quote paraphrased from a Roman philosopher about 2,000 years ago.
人們?yōu)榱诉^(guò)更好的生活而忙忙碌碌，在以為打造了良好的生活品質(zhì)的同時(shí)，卻失去了生活，這句話是大約2000多年前一位羅馬的哲學(xué)家所說(shuō)的。
Imagine that 2,000 years ago people were still struggling with the problem of constantly being busy but not producing the kind of life they truly wanted for themselves.
羅馬時(shí)代的人們和我們現(xiàn)代人即使相隔約2000年的時(shí)間，不過(guò)大家的習(xí)性竟然沒(méi)有改變，真是令人感到悲哀。
If we can’t record accumulated habits in life or constant surging wisdom and let them pass by, this could be the most wasteful thing in this world.
如果我們不能將生活當(dāng)中日積月累的寶貴習(xí)慣，以及不斷涌現(xiàn)的智慧記錄下來(lái)，就這么讓寶貴的經(jīng)驗(yàn)錯(cuò)過(guò)的話，可以說(shuō)這是天底下最浪費(fèi)的事了。
After researching the lives? many famous celebrities and dignitaries, I found a common habit: most of them have the habit of writing in a diary.
我透過(guò)無(wú)數(shù)名人的傳記，以及新聞報(bào)刊，我發(fā)現(xiàn)成功人士都有寫(xiě)日記的習(xí)慣。
Along with getting up in the morning and planning your day in the morning, the habit of writing in your diary will greatly improve the quality of your life.
結(jié)合早上起來(lái)，結(jié)合一日之計(jì)在于晨，我把它們?nèi)跁?huì)貫通成為晨間寫(xiě)日記的習(xí)慣。
Writing in a diary is a great habit.
有這樣的習(xí)慣以后我慢慢才發(fā)現(xiàn)，寫(xiě)日記真的太好。
Many years ago, I found a book called The Magic of a Morning Diary written by a Japanese writer. The book convinced me to write in a diary each morning. Also, from this book, I learned many techniques and methods to write in a way that will improve your life. Today, I will share these with you.
許多年前，我發(fā)現(xiàn)日本有一個(gè)作者寫(xiě)的一本書(shū)叫《晨間日記的奇跡》，讀了這本書(shū)，真的是太棒了，它堅(jiān)定了我寫(xiě)晨間日記的決心，也從中學(xué)到很多技巧與方法，今天結(jié)合實(shí)踐全部都分享給你。
From April 13th, 2009 to this day, 7 years now, I’ve written in my morning diary. When I began doing this I didn’t always write in the morning. Occasionally I would write in the afternoon or in the evening.
所以從2009年的4月13號(hào)開(kāi)始，到今天，我已經(jīng)寫(xiě)了7年的晨間日記，不一定總是在晨間寫(xiě)，但絕大多數(shù)是在晨間寫(xiě)，有時(shí)候我會(huì)在白天的碎片時(shí)間寫(xiě)，有時(shí)候可能會(huì)在晚上補(bǔ)上。
But, over the past four years, I have never missed a morning.? It has become such a good habit.
但是我在過(guò)去的4年里，一天都沒(méi)有斷過(guò)。
There are two kinds of habits: one is a common habit; and the other one is a successful habit.
習(xí)慣分兩種：一種叫一般的習(xí)慣，一種叫成功的習(xí)慣。
I have dreams. I am a person with dreams. And my habits can help me to achieve my dreams.
我有夢(mèng)想，我是一個(gè)有夢(mèng)想的人，而且，我的習(xí)慣可以幫助我實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想。
I don’t want to waste my precious time on trifles. I have no time to waste on trifles. I want to spend all my precious energy on realizing my dreams. Therefore, I insist in writing in a diary.
我不想把偉大的精力花費(fèi)在無(wú)謂的瑣事上，我沒(méi)有時(shí)間對(duì)小事猶豫，我想把自己全身上下的寶貴的能量，用在實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的夢(mèng)想上，所以我堅(jiān)持寫(xiě)日記。
Every day when I get up, I will spend 3 minutes opening my mobile phone, because there is useful software on it. Now, I am using Evernote, for there are years’ accumulated models as well as records of yesterday. In the sense, what I need to do is copy and changing titles.
在每一天早上起來(lái)，我會(huì)花很短的3分鐘的時(shí)間，打開(kāi)我的手機(jī)，因?yàn)槲业氖謾C(jī)有軟件，我現(xiàn)在用印象筆記，因?yàn)橛卸嗄攴e累下來(lái)的模板，因?yàn)橛凶蛱斓挠涗洠抑灰?jiǎn)單地復(fù)制，改一下標(biāo)題。
Each day, in Evernote, I will write down the date and location. Now it is as natural as counting to ten. I record the day’s weather. For instance, now, I am in Guangzhou. It’s cloudy. I will record the temperature. In this way, I start writing without delay.
我會(huì)寫(xiě)上當(dāng)天的日期，會(huì)寫(xiě)上地點(diǎn)，這有點(diǎn)像習(xí)慣的1、2、3......自然就開(kāi)始寫(xiě)了，我會(huì)記錄當(dāng)天的天氣，比如現(xiàn)在我在廣州,是陰天，我會(huì)記下今天的溫度，這樣讓我很快就開(kāi)始寫(xiě)了。
Then, I will review the yearly goals that I have written in Evernote. I see how many goals I need to realize in this year. Also, I will look at the frogs for this month. The frog is the most challenging items for the month.
然后我會(huì)看看日記當(dāng)中已經(jīng)寫(xiě)在里面的年度目標(biāo)，我會(huì)看看我今年，要實(shí)現(xiàn)的哪些夢(mèng)想，我會(huì)去看看這個(gè)月的青蛙，青蛙代表有挑戰(zhàn)的事情。
We should ever do positive matters, do matters exert positive influences on our life.
我們永遠(yuǎn)要去做積極的事情，對(duì)人生有積極的影響、重大的事情。
When I look ahead to the goals I want to accomplish over the months and year, I break it down and think about what I need to do today that will get me closer to that ultimate goal. What can I do now that is not urgent but still necessary to get me to those goals?
當(dāng)我關(guān)注到年度和月度的時(shí)候，我會(huì)想想今天該做什么，除了日程表上那些已經(jīng)確定特定時(shí)間的事情，我還有哪些事情要做呢？
I will also write down my thoughts and reflections on what happened yesterday. In this way, day after day and year after year, I’ve record my thoughts and reflections. Through this practice, I am able to convert the things I learned into the positive steps to achieve my future goals.
我會(huì)寫(xiě)下我對(duì)昨天發(fā)生事情的感悟。所以這樣日復(fù)一日，年復(fù)一年，我做到了對(duì)自己的反省，這讓我把過(guò)去所發(fā)生的事情轉(zhuǎn)化成對(duì)未來(lái)的下一步。
Confucius once told his disciples that “Every day, I examine myself on three counts”. Have you ever done it?
孔子對(duì)弟子講過(guò)要吾日三省吾身，你做到了嗎？
Socrates once said, “It’s not worth to live a life without self-inspection”!
蘇格拉底也講過(guò)一句話：沒(méi)有反思的人生不值得過(guò)！
We can improve our diary writing skills by combining the lessons learned from sages, of the past with those from modern western techniques.
我們就把圣賢的教誨，加上西方的一些方式和方法，以及現(xiàn)代的科技，就可以實(shí)現(xiàn)每天寫(xiě)日記，當(dāng)然了，你首先要能夠起得來(lái)。
In our last lesson, we talked about how to get up.
我們?cè)谏弦恢v講過(guò)如何起床？
Remember… to use natural light, fragrances, music and a shower.
用光線、香味、音樂(lè)、洗澡讓我們起來(lái)并清醒。
In this phase, we shared the habit of writing in a morning diary when you get up.
這一節(jié)我們分享了早上起來(lái)，寫(xiě)晨間日記的習(xí)慣。
Are you willing to start?
你愿意開(kāi)始嗎？
If you’re willing to start, it could be the start of something great. Why don’t you try?
如果你愿意那太好了，不妨試試看。
Come on! Dare to make your life more splendid!
一起加油，祝你的生命更精彩！
