孟津县韩志华:如何让人生有意义

You have a need you are unable to express. 你有需求却无法表达出来。

Commit to meaningful action rather than involving yourself in meaningless action. Once a decision has been made, your direction will become clear and your time becomes your own, rather than being subject to the whims of what is happening around you.
把力气花在有意义的事情上，而非去忙碌一些无意义的事。一旦做了决定就明确自己的方向，这样你的时间就在自己的掌控之中了，而不是跟着身边的人或事转。 1 Get and stay out of your comfort zone. 了解并远离自己的“舒适地带”。 
'Believe that not much happens of any significance when we're in our comfort zone. I hear people say, 'But I'm concerned about security.' My response to that is simple: 'Security is for cadavers.' '
我老听人说，“我相信当我们处于自己最舒服的地盘时，不会有什么意义重大的事情发生，但我还是担心安全问题。”我对此的反应很简单：死人最安全。 2.Never give up. 从不放弃 
'Almost nothing works the first time it's attempted. Just because what you're doing does not seem to be working, doesn't mean it won't work. It just means that it might not work the way you're doing it. If it was easy, everyone would be doing it, and you wouldn't have an opportunity.'
几乎没有什么事情是第一次尝试就能成功的。只是因为你做的事情似乎不成，并不意味着它就一定成不了。那只是意味着你用的方法可能不对。如果有那么容易的话，那所有人都会去做了，你也不会有机会了。 
3. When you're ready to quit, you're closer than you think.当你想要放弃的时候，往往比你自己以为的更接近成功。 
'There's an old Chinese saying that I just love, and I believe it is so true. It goes like this: 'The temptation to quit will be greatest just before you are about to succeed.' '
我很喜欢一句中国古语，而且也深深地相信其中的道理。那就是“功亏一篑”。 
4 Always be moving forward. 一直前行 
'Never stop investing. Never stop improving. Never stop doing something new. The moment you stop improving your organization, it starts to die. Make it your goal to be better each and every day, in some small way. Remember the Japanese concept of Kaizen. Small daily improvements eventually result in huge advantages.'
永远不要停止投资。永远不要止步不前。永远不要停止尝试新东西。当你停止改进自己的组织结构那一刻，它就开始失去活力。给自己定下每天都要有所长进的目标，即使是很小的长进。记住日本那种“经营方法改善”的理念。每天积累一点小小的进步，最终就会有巨大的进展。 
5. Be quick to decide. 决策要迅速 
'Remember what General George S. Patton said: 'A good plan violently executed today is far and away better than a perfect plan tomorrow.' '
记住巴顿将军(General George S. Patton)的话：今天就得到彻底执行的好计划要远胜于明天的完美计划。

6. Measure everything of significance. 任何具有重要性的东西都要量化。 
'I swear this is true. Anything that is measured and watched, improves.'
我发誓这是千真万确的。只要是被量化、受到注意的事物，它都会增长。 
7. Anything that is not managed will deteriorate. 任何东西如果不进行管理，就会恶化。 
'If you want to uncover problems you don't know about, take a few moments and look closely at the areas you haven't examined for a while. I guarantee you problems will be there.'
如果你想要发现你自己未曾察觉的问题，只需要花一点点时间，仔细观察你已经有一阵子没有去检查的领域。我保证那些地方一定会有问题。 
8 Never expect life to be fair. 永远不要期望生活会是公平的。 
'Life isn't fair. You make your own breaks. You'll be doing good if the only meaning fair has to you, is something that you pay when you get on a bus (i.e., fare).'
生活不是公平的。你得自己去突破。如果对你来说，“公平”唯一的意思是你上公共汽车时给的车钱（也就是票价，英文为fare，与fair同音──译者注），那会对你有好处。 
9 Don't take yourself too seriously. 不要把自己看得太高 
'Lighten up. Often, at least half of what we accomplish is due to luck. None of us are in control as much as we like to think we are.'。
放轻松。通常我们所实现的成就中，至少有一半是出于运气。我们没有人像自己以为的那样掌控着一切。 
10. There's always a reason to smile. 总有微笑的理由。 
'Find it. After all, you're really lucky just to be alive. Life is short. More and more, I agree with my little brother. He always reminds me: 'We're not here for a long time, we're here for a good time!' '
找到它。毕竟光是活下来就真的很幸运了。生命短暂。我越来越赞同我弟弟的话。他总是提醒我：我们不是为了活得长而来到世上，我们是为了来享受生活！
