十大理由告訴你立即行動是開始的比較好方式

　　I've always wanted to start my own business. I'vealways wanted to start working for myself. Yet Ididn't make that decision until 3 years ago, afterbeing made redundant. And then my first businesswas started in 2013. I finally got started instead ofthinking about it or putting it off until a later time.Maybe you've yet to get started on somethingimportant yourself. Maybe you can relate to what I'msaying, and you feel you've been slacking off for toolong now. Here's why getting started is the best wayto get started. Right now.

　　我總是想開始創(chuàng)業(yè)。我總想要做個自由職業(yè)者。后來我覺得總是這么想，這么說絲毫沒有意義，3年前我終于下定決心開始實施。于是我在2013年開始了第一次創(chuàng)業(yè)，最終決定著手干起來，而不是停留在思考層面或者再考慮往后推遲一段時間?？赡苣阋呀?jīng)開始做一些對于你來說很重要的事情。也可能你對我的說法感同身受，覺得自己已經(jīng)松懈了很久。下面就來說說為什么立即行動是開始的最好方式。

　　10.It's better than thinking about it.

　　10.開始行動要優(yōu)于單純的思考

　　Thinking about something before you do it is a great trait to have. But thinking can also bedangerous when you do too much of it. You can think as much as you like, but thinking isn'tgoing to change the situation. In fact, thinking isn't going to change anything. Thinking will justkeep you in the same position you're already in. You won't go anywhere, as If you're a humanstatue.

　　我們一般都有個特點，喜歡在做事情之前先想一想。但是當你想的特別多的時候往往會讓事情變糟。當然你可以盡情想像，但是光想并不能改變形勢。實際上，只想不做是不能改變?nèi)魏问虑榈摹Ｒ驗楣馐窍牒退伎贾荒茏屇阍靥げ?。就像是個人物雕塑，哪也去不了。

　　9.Too much thinking can become a bad habit.

　　9.過度思考會變成一個壞習慣

　　Whatever you do everyday is a habit, and that's a fact. Unfortunately that means too muchthinking can also become a habit. And It's not a habit that's going to push you forward and getyou started. It's about time to woke up and got started, or else you never will.

　　你每天做什么事都會成為一種習慣，這是事實。所以不幸的是，想的過多也會變成一種習慣。但卻不是促進你前進并讓你開始的習慣。該是清醒的時候了，立即行動吧，否則你將永遠不會開始。

　　8.It's better than never taking action.

　　8.開始行動優(yōu)于永遠不行動

　　Do you want to be the man or the woman who never does anything? Do you want to be theman or the woman who never gets started? Take action and get out of your own head. Youwon't regret it.

　　你想成為永遠不干事的那種男人或者女人嗎?你想成為那種永遠不行動的那種男人或者女人嗎?立即行動，擺脫自己局限，你絕對不會后悔。

　　7.It's better than dreaming about doing it.

　　7.沒有行動的夢想僅僅是幻想

　　How long are you going to dream about starting your own business? How long are you going todream about getting started? How long are you going to dream about how wonderful it'll bewhen you DO take action? And how long are you going to dream about how much of adifference it'll make to your life? There's only so much dreaming you can do before you have toturn that dream into action. A dream without action is a fantasy, destined to never come true.

　　你夢想自己去創(chuàng)業(yè)有多久了?你夢想開始你的創(chuàng)業(yè)有多久了?夢想自己開始行動后會出現(xiàn)什么結(jié)果?夢想創(chuàng)業(yè)后會對你的生活產(chǎn)生什么樣的影響?在你將夢想變成現(xiàn)實之前，你做的只是夢想。沒有行動的夢想僅僅是幻想，注定永遠不能成為現(xiàn)實。

　　6.You've got to get over your fear of starting eventually.

　　6.要克服對開始行動的恐懼

　　"Have no fear of perfection – you'll never reach it." – Salvador Dali. Maybe that's the reasonwhy you've yet to get started up until this point. Are you afraid? What are you so afraid ofanyway? Is it rejection? Being turned down? Things not going the way you expect them to?Are you afraid of failure? Do you fear being criticized? Humiliation? Losing money? Lack ofsupport? Whatever your fears might be, it's time to get over it.If there's one thing I've learnedabout facing your fears, it's the fact that fear is never as bad as we believe it to be.

　　薩爾瓦多·達利說過：不追求完美，你將永遠不能成功?？赡苓@就是你一直到現(xiàn)在還沒有開始的原因。你害怕嗎?那你害怕什么呢?被拒絕?沒有發(fā)展?事情沒有像自己想象那樣發(fā)展?害怕失敗?擔心受到指責?覺得丟臉?怕賠錢?缺乏支持?無論你擔心什么，都到了要克服的時候。要知道一個道理，你的擔心永遠都不會如你想象的那樣糟糕。

　　5.It's better than over analyzing what you want to do.

　　5.立即行動比一直停留在分析研究上好

　　You know what happens when you start over analyzing something? You stress yourself out.You wear yourself out, you worry, you over think, you make stuff up in your head, and you overexaggerate. What an imagination our brains have! But seriously speaking, there's only somuch analyzing you can do. At some point you're going to have to kick your ass into gear. Atsome point you'll have to put the key in the ignition, start the engine, and push the pedal.You can't do that with your mind.

　　你應(yīng)該清楚當你開始不斷分析事情的時候會給你帶來什么?這是在給自己增加壓力。你這是在消耗自己，擔心，過分思慮，腦子里總想些亂七八糟的事情，非?？鋸?，那我們的頭腦會出現(xiàn)什么情況?但是嚴格的說，你也只能分析你能夠做的。從一定意義上說，你將會坐立不安。所以有些時候你需要用鑰匙點火，開動機械，推動踏板，你不能用腦子做這些。

　　4.Procrastinating won't get you anywhere.

　　4.拖延會使你一事無成

　　Getting started is easy, simple, and doable. Yet procrastinating is also easy to do. Ironic isn't it?But the truth is, delaying what you've been dying to do isn't going to benefit you. At best, it'llhinder you in more ways than one. Remember what I said earlier about what we do everydayis a habit? Well If you procrastinate enough, that habit will creep into other parts of your lifeas well. If you procrastinate with simple things, you'll procrastinate with harder things. Oneleads to another. Start small If you must, but at the least you need to get started.

　　開始行動其實很簡單，也是可行的。然而拖延也很容易做到的，你不覺得諷刺嗎?但是事實上，拖延你將做的事情對你并不利。實際上，它將在很多方面阻止你。還記得上面我剛說的每天干的事情就會成為一個習慣?當你拖延成為習慣，這個毛病就會侵蝕到你生活的其他方面。當你在簡單的事情上拖延，那你也將會在復雜的事情上拖延。事情之間往往存在著連鎖反應(yīng)。盡管你僅僅是開始了一小步，但是至少你需要開始。

　　3.The last thing you want to do is regret not starting.

　　3.你需要做的最后一件事情就是不后悔行動

　　Regretting what you've done is one thing, but regretting what you've never done is another.Lets be honest, regretting what you haven't done is so much worse. Especially when it'ssomething you're adamant to do. You don't want to be that person who regrets it 30 yearsfrom now, do you?

　　后悔做過的事情是一回事，但是后悔從來沒有做過的事情又是另外一件事情。說實在的，后悔沒有做的事情是非常糟糕的。特別是一些你執(zhí)著的事情。你不會想成為從現(xiàn)在開始后悔30年的那種人吧?

　　2.You can adjust your actions along the way.

　　2.你可以隨時調(diào)整你的行動

　　Ready, aim, fire! You've heard of the saying, right? Well what happens if you spend all yourtime aiming, and not firing? You'll never hit anything! That's basically what you're doing bythinking too much and not getting started. Ready, fire, aim should be your approach. Youmight not get it right on the first shot, but you can adjust your aim as you go along.

　　準備，瞄準，開火!你可能已經(jīng)聽到一些說法，如果你只是把時間全部放在瞄準，而不是開火，那么你將永遠無法捕獲任何東西。充分考慮自己要做的事情是一項基礎(chǔ)性工作，并不代表已經(jīng)開始行動。準備，開火，目標，這應(yīng)該成為你的步驟。你可能第一槍沒能擊中，但是你可以邊干邊調(diào)整。

　　1.It's better to make a mistake than do nothing at all.

　　1.犯錯誤也比什么都不做強

　　This ties in with the last point I just made. I don't like to make mistakes, you don't like tomistakes, nobody likes to make mistakes. But nobody's perfect so it's impossible not to makea mistake. As great as computers and smartphones are, even they can make mistakes! Youcan't get away from it. And that's OK. Just be sure to get started on whatever you've beendelaying for so long. And when you do make a mistake, learn from it and get it right the nexttime. Then you'll be way ahead, I can guarantee you that!

　　這點和我剛才說的觀點緊緊相連。我不喜歡犯錯誤，你也不喜歡犯錯誤，沒有人喜歡犯錯誤。但是沒有人可以完美無缺，永遠不犯錯誤是不可能的。先開始做一些已經(jīng)被你拖延很久的事情吧。當你犯了錯誤，從錯誤中吸取教訓，下一次給予改正，然后你就可以勇往直前，我保證你可以做到。
