I Will Laugh At The World

我們面臨的第一個內在的敵人是冷漠，第二個內在的敵人是優柔寡斷，第三個內在的敵人是懷疑， 第四個內在的敵人是擔憂， 第五個內在的敵人是過分謹慎。一定要向這些敵人開戰。

Try To Remember The Good Things想想好事情

1. When times become difficult (and you know they sometimes will)， remember a moment in your life that was filled with joy and happiness.

2. Remember how it made you feel， and you will have the strength you need to get through any trial.

3. When life throws you one more obstacle than you think you can handle， remember something you achieved through perseverance and by struggling to the end.

4. In doing so， you’ll find you have the ability to overcome each obstacle brought your way.

5. When you find yourself drained and depleted of energy， remember to find a place of sanctuary and rest.

6. Take the necessary time in your own life to dream your dreams and renew your energy， so you’ll be ready to face each new day.

7. When you feel tension building， find something fun to do. You’ll find that the stress you feel will dissipate and your thoughts will become clearer.

8. When you’re faced with so many negative and draining situations， realize how minuscule problems will seem when you view your life as a whole—and remember the positive things.

1. 當你身陷困境的時候（你有時會），回想你生命中快樂和幸福的時刻。

2. 回想它是如何使你快樂，你便有了走出困境的勇氣。

3. 當面對重重困難，你感覺舉步維艱的時候，回想你以前是如何堅持到底戰勝困難的最后時刻的。

4. 這樣，你就會發現你有能力克服每個障礙。

5. 當你覺得筋疲力盡的時候，暫時離開，讓自己稍作休息。

6. 給自己留點時間做做夢，充一下電，這樣你就能以嶄新的面貌去面對每一天。

7. 當你感覺到緊張的壓力，做一些有樂趣的事吧。你會發現壓力在漸漸消逝，你的想法也漸漸明朗了。

8. 當你面對重重困難的時候，要意識到相對于你的整個生命，這些難題其實是微不足道的——銘記你生命中美好的東西。

Shaking It Off 從生命中的枯井脫困

1. One day， a farmer’s donkey fell into a dried up well. The animal cried piteously for hours as the farmer tried to figure out what to do. Finally， he decided that the animal was old； the well needed to be covered up， and retrieving the donkey just wasn’t worth the effort. So he invited his neighbors to come over and help him bury the donkey in the well to put him out of his misery.

2. They all grabbed shovels and began to scoop dirt into the well. At first， the donkey realized what was happening and again cried pitifully. Then， to everyone’s amazement， he quieted down. A few shovel loads later， the farmer finally looked down into the well and was astonished at what he saw. With each shovel load of dirt that hit his back， the donkey did something amazing. He shook it off and took a step up！

3. As the farmer’s neighbors continued to shovel dirt on top of the animal， he would shake it off and take a step up. Pretty soon， everyone was amazed as the donkey stepped triumphantly over the edge of the well and trotted off！ As with the donkey， life is going to shovel dirt on you， all kinds of dirt. The trick to getting out of the well is to shake it off and take a step up. Each setback we encounter is like dirt shoveled on our backs. Each of our troubles is a stepping stone. We can get out of the deepest wells just by not stopping， by never giving up！ Shake it off and take a step up！

4. What seemed like it would bury the donkey actually blessed him—because of the way in which he handled his adversity. This is a key to one of the mysteries of life. If we face our problems， respond to them positively and refuse to give in to panic and bitterness， the adversities that come along to bury us usually have within them the potential to benefit and bless us！

5. It is up to us to remember to develop the ability to forgive， forget， and press toward our goal. We need to keep developing our faith， our hope and our ability to love unconditionally. These are the tools that will help us “shake it off and step up” out of the wells in which we find ourselves.

1. 有一天某個農夫的一頭驢子，不小心掉進一口枯井里，農夫絞盡腦汁想辦法救出驢子，但幾個小時過去了，驢子還在井里痛苦地哀嚎著。最后，這位農夫決定放棄，他想這頭驢子年紀大了，不值得大費周章去把它救出來，不過無論如何，這口井還是得填起來。于是農夫便請來左鄰右舍幫忙一起將井中的驢子埋了，以免除它的痛苦。

2. 農夫的鄰居們人手一把鏟子，開始將泥土鏟進枯井中。當這頭驢子了解到自己的處境時，剛開始哭得很凄慘。但出人意料的是，一會兒之后這頭驢子就安靜下來了。農夫好奇地探頭往井底一看，出現在眼前的景象令他大吃一驚：當鏟進井里的泥土落在驢子的背部時，驢子的反應令人稱奇——它將泥土抖落在一旁，然后站到鏟進的泥土堆上面！

3. 就這樣，驢子將大家鏟倒在它身上的泥土全數抖落在井底，然后再站上去。很快地，這只驢子便得意地上升到井口，然后在眾人驚訝的表情中快步地跑開了！就如驢子的情況，在生命的旅程中，有時候我們難免會陷入“枯井”里，會被各式各樣的“泥沙”傾倒在我們身上，而想要從這些“枯井”脫困的秘訣就是：將“泥沙”抖落掉，然后站到上面去！事實上，我們在生活中所遭遇的種種困難挫折就是加諸在我們身上的“泥沙”；然而，換個角度看，它們也是一塊塊的墊腳石，只要我們鍥而不舍地將它們抖落掉，然后站上去，那么即使是掉落到最深的井里，我們也能安然地脫困。

4. 本來看似要活埋驢子的舉動，由于驢子處理厄境的態度不同，實際上卻幫助了它，這也是改變命運的要素之一。如果我們以肯定、沉著、穩重的態度面對困境，助力往往就潛藏在困境中。

5. 一切都決定于我們自己，學習放下一切得失，勇往直前，邁向理想。我們應該不斷地建立信心、希望和無條件的愛，這些都是幫助我們從生命中的枯井脫困并找到自己的工具。

Work And Pleasure工作與娛樂

1. To be really happy and really safe， one ought to have at least two or three hobbies， and they must all be real. It is no use starting late in life to say： “I will take an interest in this or that.” Such an attempt only aggravates the strain of mental effort. A man may acquire great knowledge of topics unconnected with his daily work， and yet hardly get any benefit or relief. It is no use doing what you like； you have got to like what you do. Broadly speaking， human beings may be divided into three classes： those who are toiled to death， those who are worried to death， and those who are bored to death. It is no use offering the manual laborers， tired out with a hard week’s sweat and effort， the chance of playing a game of football or baseball on Saturday afternoon. It is no use inviting the politician or the professional or business man， who has been working or worrying about serious things for six days， to work or worry about trifling things at the weekend.
