《每個人都有自己的時區》
作者:佚名(美國人)
紐約時間比加州時間早三個小時,
New York is 3 hours ahead of California,
但加州時間并沒有變慢。
but it does not make California slow.
有人22歲就畢業了,
Someone graduated at the age of 22,
但等了五年才找到好的工作!
but waited 5 years before securing a good job!
有人25歲就當上CEO,
Someone became a CEO at 25,
卻在50歲去世。
and died at 50.
也有人遲到50歲才當上CEO,
While another became a CEO at 50,
然后活到90歲。
and lived to 90 years.
有人依然單身,
Someone is still single,
同時也有人已婚。
while someone else got married.
奧巴馬55歲就退休,
Obama retires at 55,
川普70歲才開始當總統。
but Trump starts at 70.
世上每個人本來就有自己的發展時區。
Absolutely everyone in this world works based on their Time Zone.
身邊有些人看似走在你前面,
People around you might seem to go ahead of you,
也有人看似走在你后面。
some might seem to be behind you.
但其實每個人在自己的時區都有自己的步伐。
But everyone is running their own RACE, in their own TIME.
不用嫉妒或嘲笑他們。
Don’t envy them or mock them.
他們都在自己的時區里,你也是!
They are in their TIME ZONE, and you are in yours!
生命就是等待正確的行動時機。
Life is about waiting for the right moment to act.
所以,放輕松。
So, RELAX.
你沒有落后。
You’re not LATE.
你沒有領先。
You’re not EARLY.
在命運為你安排的屬于自己的時區里,一切都準時。
You are very much ON TIME, and in your TIME ZONE Destiny set up for you.
別讓任何人打亂你的人生節奏
Don`t let anyone rush you with their timelines
I know people who graduated at 21 and didn`t get a job until they were 27.
I know people who graduated at 25 and they found work immediately.
I know people who never went to university, but found what they love at 18.
I know people who found a job straight out of college making decent money, but hate what they do.
I know people who took gap years and found their purpose.
I know people who were so sure about what they were going to do at 16, they change their mind at 26.
I know people who have children but are single.
And I know people who are married but had to wait 8 to 10 years to have children.
I know people in relationships who love someone else.
I know people who love each other but aren`t together.
So my point is everything in life happens according to our time, our clock.
You may look at some of your friends and think that they`re ahead of you, maybe some of them you feel are behind, but everything happens at their own pace.
They have their own time and clock and so do you.
Be patient.
At age 25, Mark Cuban was a bartender in Dallas.
It took till 32 for J.K. Rowling to be published for Harry Potter after being rejected by 12 publishers.
Ortega launched Zara when he was 39.
Jack Ma started Alibaba when was 35.
Morgan Freeman got his big break at 52.
Steve Carell only got his break after 40 years old.
Virgin was started by Richard Branson at 34.
Getting your degree after 25 is still an achievement.
Not being married at 30 but still happy is beautiful.
Starting a family after 35 is still possible and buying a house after 40 is still great.
Don`t let anyone rush you with their timelines.
Because as Einstein said,”Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that`s counted truly counts.”
And this is the most important thing, I want you to be able to create meaningful purposeful fullfilling lives for yourselves and learn how to use that to make an impact and a difference in the lives of others.
That will be true success.
有的人21歲畢業,到27歲才找到工作。
有的人25歲才畢業,卻馬上找到了工作。
有的人雖然沒上過大學,卻在18歲就找到了熱愛的事。
有的人一畢業就找到了好工作,賺很多錢,卻過的不開心。
有的人選擇間隔年,去尋找自我。
有的人在16歲就清楚知道自己要什么,但在26歲時改變了想法。
有的人有了孩子,卻還是單身。
有的人結婚了,卻等了8-10年才生孩子。
有的人身處一段感情,愛的卻是別人。
有的人明明彼此相愛,卻沒有在一起。
我想說的是,人生中的每一件事都取決于我們自己的時間。
你身邊有些朋友也許遙遙領先與你,有些朋友也許落后于你,但凡事都有它自己的節奏。
他們有他們的節奏,你有你自己的。
耐心一點。
庫班25歲時還在酒吧做酒保。
在被拒12次后,JK羅琳到32歲才出版了《哈利波特》。
Ortega到39歲才創辦了Zara。
馬云35歲才建立了阿里巴巴。
摩根弗里曼到52歲才迎來他演藝事業的大爆發。
Steve Carell 40歲才紅。
Richard Branson 34歲才創辦維珍航空。
25歲后才拿到文憑,依然值得驕傲。
30歲沒結婚,但過得快樂也是一種成功。
35歲之后成家也完全可以,40歲買房也沒什么丟臉的。
不要讓任何人打亂你的時間表。
因為愛因斯坦曾說過:“并不是每一件算得出來的事,都有意義;也不是每一件有意義的事,都能夠被算出來。”
這才是最重要的事,我希望你們可以創造屬于自己的充滿意義的人生,學會用這些去影響點亮他人的生活。
這才是真正的成功。
很多時候,有一瞬間的想法。但沒成為有效的方法
能量的問題,此起彼伏是正常的,內核足夠堅定,非常清晰你需要什么吧
