英語美文朗讀 第457期 Turn off your phones
Why do so many people on the planet right now medicate themselves, they medicate themselves with too much technology, they're medicating themselves in front of that white screen, checking the smartphone a hundred and ten times every day. That's not checking your technology, you know what that is, that's an addiction, and an escape from what is.
為什么現(xiàn)在地球上有那么多人自己用藥，過多地使用技術這種藥，他們在白屏前給自己用藥，每天要查看110次手機。這并不是在檢查你的技術，你知道那是什么嗎，那是一種上癮，也是一種逃避，對現(xiàn)實的逃避。
And if you said to most people, did you know you're addicted to your smartphone, did you know you're addicted to your notifications, addicted to your television, did you know you're addicted to your excuses, addicted to gossip, did you know you're drinking too much alcohol because you're addicted to it, did you know that this is all a flight from what is, because deep down inside the deepest unknown part of you knows that you're in pain over potential unlived. They would fight you to the death.
如果你對大多數人說：你知道你對智能手機上癮了嗎，你知道你對手機通知、對電視上癮了嗎，你知道你對借口上癮了嗎，對流言蜚語上癮了嗎，你知道你喝太多酒是因為對酒上癮了嗎，你知道嗎，這一切都是為了逃避現(xiàn)實，因為在你內心深處最深的未知部分，你知道自己在為無處施展的潛力而痛苦。他們會一直折磨你到死。
Deep down inside I believe most people on the planet are heartbroken. Why? Because they've betrayed the visions, ambitions, values and mission in their heart, they've betrayed their talent by buying into the mass hypnosis that the world has sold them. And they're 35 and they're 45 years old, and they're just no no, this is what everyone does, and they just check check check check check. For most people their misery is derived by their inability to sit quietly in a room by themselves, most of us are so distracted, they're so over stimulated, they're so interrupted, they don't create the silent spaces where their genius can present to themselves, and just because 95% of the population does this, we think this is how we should live, and so I'm suggesting to you the mass of humanity the reason they're doing this it's a flight from pain that's deep within their subconscious.
我相信這個星球上大多數人的內心深處，都是破碎的。為什么?因為他們背叛了自己心中的愿景、野心、價值觀和使命，相信了這個世界賣給他們的大眾催眠藥，背叛了自己的才能，不去發(fā)揮出來。他們35歲，45歲，他們只是不、不、不，每個人都如此做著，他們只是看手機、看手機、看手機...。對大多數人來說，他們的痛苦源于他們不能獨自安靜地坐在一個房間里，大多數人太心煩意亂，太激動，受到太多干擾，他們的天賦展現(xiàn)需要安靜的空間，但他們無法創(chuàng)造這種空間，但僅僅因為95%的人都這樣做了，我們認為這就是我們應該的生活方式嗎，我建議你：大多數人這樣做的原因，是為了逃離他們潛意識深處的痛苦。
And why are they in pain, why do they need the medication of distraction, it's because they don't want to feel the pain, it's uncomfortable, it takes bravery to feel the pain, and all I'm suggesting to you is if you have betrayed your potential, if you're not bringing it on, if you're not shining your light in the world, and if you're not standing in the highest expression of your fullest talents, and not only doing a disservice to the world, you're growing the pain.
為什么他們會痛苦，為什么他們需要分散注意力的藥物，這是因為他們不想感受痛苦，這不舒服，而且感受痛苦需要勇氣，但我只想告訴你，如果你已經背叛了你的潛力，如果你沒有實現(xiàn)它，如果你沒有在這個世界上閃耀你的光芒，如果你沒有最大程度地展現(xiàn)自己的才能。那這不僅是對世界的傷害，你也在增加自己的痛苦。
Bring your potential, and your light to the world, and if you're not doing that your pain is going to grow, your deep hidden sorrow will grow, and you'll drink more alcohol, you'll do more drugs, you'll be more toxic in your workplace, you'll be more passive-aggressive, or hateful, and if you're wondering why the world has so much hate, checking your notifications, looking at your email, looking at SMS, looking at pictures of people's breakfasts, it's an addiction, it's a dopamine addiction, start the process of breaking your addiction to distraction today.
把你的潛力，你的光芒帶到這個世界上，如果你不去做你的痛苦將會增加，你隱藏的深深的悲傷會增長，你會喝更多的酒，你會吸更多的毒品，你會對你的工作場所更不滿，你會變得更被動、更具侵略性、更可恨，如果你想知道為什么世界上有這么多的仇恨，看看你的手機通知，看看你的電子郵件，看看短信，看看人們早餐的圖片，這就是一種上癮，這是一種多巴胺上癮，今天就開始打破你對娛樂消遣的上癮吧。
If you look at most people on the planet they're literally hooked to a white screen, they're wasting their human potential, hooked into some social platform that's creating empires for other people. Many people if not most people are now a form of artificial intelligence, they're not living their brains potential, not living their physiological potential, not living their creative potential, they're not living their human potential, are not living their economic potential. Why? Because they're hooked to a screen, because most people are lost, most people are cooked. Turn off your phones, get serious about this, this is your life!
你看看這個星球上的大多數人，他們真的被白屏迷住了，他們在浪費他們擁有的人類潛能，被一些社交平臺所吸引，在為其他人創(chuàng)造帝國。現(xiàn)在很多人(如果不是大多數人)活的都像人工智能，他們沒有充分發(fā)掘他們的大腦潛能、生理潛能、創(chuàng)造潛能、人類潛能以及經濟潛力。為什么?因為他們被一個屏幕所吸引，因為大多數人都迷失了自己，大多數人為技術所控制。關掉你的手機，嚴肅點，這才是你的生活!
