改变我一生的思考习惯
The Thinking Habit That Changed My Life

        我记得三年前的一个晚上，那时我的生活非常不同
        I remember one evening three years ago ,when my life was very different.

我的负担过重。我债台高筑。我抽烟。
I was overweight. I was deeply in debt. I was a smoker.

我感到绝望和无助。我什么也改变不了。
I felt hopeless and helpless. I couldn't change anything.


        然后我抬头望着天空，心想生命是一个奇迹。
        Then I looked up at the sky and thought what a miracle life is.

我决定列出我生命中美好的事情。
And I resolved to list the good things in my life.

我有一个很棒的妻子。我有五个很棒的孩子。
I had a wonderful wife. I had five amazing children.

我可以看到和欣赏我周围世界的美丽。
I could see and appreciate the beauty of the world around me.

这个名单还在继续，但你应该明白了。
The list went on, but you get the idea.

即使事情对我来说很糟糕，实际上我还好。
Even when things seemed terrible for me, actually I was OK.


        那天晚上，我下定决心对我所拥有的一切和我生命中的人心存感激。
        That night I resolved to be grateful for what I had, and for the people in my life.

我开始了感恩的习惯。
I started the habit of gratitude.

现在很多人认为它不重要。
Now many people consider it unimportant.

我是来告诉你这很重要。它改变了生活。
I' m here to tell you that it's very important. It changes lives.


        现在我更欣赏我的妻子伊娃了。
        Now I appreciate my wife Eva more.

有她在我的生活中我感觉很好。
I feel good about having her in my life.

我们加深了我们的关系。
And we have deepened our relationship.

我也更欣赏我的孩子。
I also appreciate my kids more.

我倾向于注意到他们的可爱、好奇和幽默，而不是批评他们。
Instead of criticizing them, I tend to notice their loveliness,curiosity and humor.

我对身边的人更友善，无论是在工作中还是在其他任何地方，
I'm kinder to others around me,at work and everywhere else,

因为我看到的不是每个人的缺点，
because instead of seeing the faults in everyone,

而是好的一面，并对他们心存感激。
I see the good, and am grateful for them.

我需要的更少，因为我不再去想我没有的东西，
I need less, because instead of thinking about what I don't have,

而是对我已经拥有的东西心存感激。
I am grateful for what I do have.

每一刻都成为感恩的理由，
Each and every moment becomes cause for gratitude,

生活也变得更容易。
and life becomes easier.


        没有感恩的习惯，
        Without the habit of gratitude,

我们往往会抱怨，看到人和事的缺点。
we tend to complain and see the bad in people and things.

我们不能马上改变，但你可以做点什么。
We can't change that at once, but you can do something.

例如，你可以从一个小动作开始。
For example, you can start with a small action.

真正感受你生命中某件事或某个人的幸福，
Really feel the happiness that something or someone is in your life,

或者花点时间列一个你生命中值得感激的事情的清单。
or take a moment to make a list of the things in your life that you're thankful for.

训狗
Dog Training

        对所有的狗来说，训练狗是必须的。
        Dog training is a must for all dogs.

这不仅仅是告诉你的狗不要再做他正在做的事情，
It is more than just telling your dog to stop doing what he's doing;

这是一个教狗在特定情况下表现出特定行为的过程。
it is the process of teaching a dog to exhibit certain desired behaviors in specific circumstances.

正确的训犬不是“权宜之计”，而是一个持续的过程
Proper dog training is not a "quick fix"-it is an ongoing process.


        训狗还包括教导主人。
        Dog training also involves teaching the owner.

接受训犬是每一个狗主人应该做的事情。
Going through dog training is something that every dog owner should do.

就像回到学校一样。
It is like going to school over again.

这都是关于交流，
It is all about communication,

你需要学会和你的狗交流
and you need to learn to communicate with your dog


        训练你的狗坐下可能是你要训练你的狗做的第一件事。
        Training your dog to “sit” is probably the first thing you will train your dog to do.

当你想让你的狗坐下时，把食物举到它的头上并说坐下”。
When you want your dog to sit, hold a treat above his head and say “sit".

当狗坐下时，再次说“坐下”，然后马上给它吃的。
As the dog sits,say "sit" again and then immediately give him the treat.

为了够到食物，你的狗应该坐起来。
Your dog should drop into a “sit” position in order to reach the food.


        教你的狗去接东西可以增进感情。
        Teaching your dog to fetch promotes bonding.

要做到这一点，首先扔一个球，
To do this, first throw a ball,

然后命令"取来"。当他开始朝球跑过去时，再喊"取来"。
and give the command “fetch”. As he starts to run towards it,yell “fetch” again.

你可以用你的狗最喜欢的东西代替球。
Instead of a ball, you may use the object your dog loves most.

但是，不要用沉重的物品或棍子来玩取物游戏，
Do not play fetch with heavy items or sticks, however,

因为这可能会损坏狗的牙齿或伤害狗。
as this can damage the dog's teeth or injure the dog.


        一只训练有素的狗应该留在主人命令的地方，
        A well-trained dog should remain where his owner commands,

所以“停留”也是训练狗的一个重要命令。
so “stay" is an important command in dog training as well.

因为它更复杂，这将是另一篇文章的主题。
Since it is more involved, that will be the subject of another article.


        训狗是一项非常体力的活动，所以要做好累的准备。
        Dog training is a very physical activity, so be prepared to be tired.

训狗也有受伤的危险，
And dog training is never without risk of injury,

尤其是对那些更具攻击性的狗。
especially with more aggressive dogs.

许多狗主人犯的一个主要错误是认为狗的训练已经结束了。
One major mistake many dog owners make is to think that the dog training is over.

训练你的狗贯穿你的一生。
Training your dog continues throughout your dog’s life.

古希腊的价值观

1. Ancient Greek civilization has greatly helped the building of today's society.

现在许多国家仍然基于法律和伦理来指导古希腊人的教义和行为。
Many countries now still base their laws and ethics(伦理) on the teachings and doings of ancient Greeks.

在日常生活中,古希腊人重视忠诚、荣耀、智力且好客。

这些看似简单的价值观，
These may seem simple values,

但它们确实有效地将古希腊塑造成了历史上最受参考的文化。
but they did effectively shape ancient Greece into a most referenced culture in history.


在古希腊，男人必须去学校学习。
2. During ancient Greece, men were required to go to school and learn.

男孩在6岁之前都在家里接受教育，然后被送去学校。
Boys were taught at home until they were 6 years old and then sent off to school.

古希腊学校的特点是，男孩从6岁到14岁都要上学，
Ancient Greek schools featured a structure that had boys in school from the age of six until fourteen

然后有额外的4年可选时间。
and then an optional additional four years.

这些男孩接受了艺术和公民训练。
The boys were trained in arts and in citizen training.

公民训练为希腊男孩准备了两方面的成年生活，即和平和战争。
Citizen training prepared Greek boys for two aspects of adult life , which were peace and war.


古希腊年轻人的荣耀就像今天年轻人的名声一样。
3. Glory for young men in ancient Greece was the same as fame to young people today.

关于战争和战斗的故事流传给年轻人，
Stories of war glories and battles were handed down to young men

这样他们就希望在战争的胜利中扬名立万。
so that they desired to make their names along with the victory of a battle.


在古希腊，帮助你的同伴是生活的一个重要方面。
4. Helping your fellow man was an important aspect of life in ancient Greece.

古希腊人是善良和慷慨的。
Ancient Greeks were kind and generous.

他们毫无疑问地为旅行者提供食物、住所和保护。
They offered food, shelter and protection to travelers without question.

他们相信帮助别人是他们兄弟的责任
They believed that helping others was their brotherly duty.


忠诚也许是古希腊文明最重要的价值。
5. Loyalty is perhaps the most important value of ancient Greek civilization.

希腊人所做的一切都强调这一点。
It was stressed in everything the Greeks did.

他们相信家庭、群落，最重要的是对神的忠诚。
They believed in loyalty to the family, the community and most importantly to the gods.

古希腊的众神经常给市民测试。

积极思考就是力量
The Power of Positive Thinking

        人类的情感是那些不能被精确定义的因素之一。
        Human emotion is one of those factors that cannot be defined exactly.

原因是它是相当不确定的。

当我们经历不同的事情时，我们无法改变被激起的感觉。

然而，我们必须永远记住，我们可以控制自己的反应。
__26 B. However, we must always remember that we can control our reactions.__


        有些人忘记了他们是掌控者。
        Some people forget that they are in control.

他们根据自己的情绪做出选择。

他们经历失败和损失，让他们的情绪支配他们的决定。
They experience failure and loss and let their emotions rule their decisions.

        有些人说他们需要一个幸运的休息来从失败中恢复过来。

然而，生活很少给人们喘息的机会。
__27 E. However, life rarely gives people a break.__

他们需要靠自己克服失败。
They need to get over their failures on their own.

但是他们是怎么做到的呢?答案是:积极的思考
But how do they do that? The answer is: positive thinking


        人们常常没有意识到积极思考的力量。
        People often fail to realize the power of positive thinking.

他们没有意识到他们最大的敌人就在他们自己身上。
__28 A. They fail to realize that their worst enemy lies within themselves.__

他们没有意识到只有克服恐惧才能在生活中获得真正的成功。
They fail to realize that they only need to overcome their fears in order to truly succeed in life.

他们只是太骄傲了，看不到自己的缺点。
They just have too much pride and are blinded of their own shortcomings.


        积极思考的力量在于信念。
        The power of positive thinking lies in belief.

你要相信你在掌控之中。
__29 F. You need to believe that you are in control. __

你所做的决定会影响你的生活。
You make the decisions that affect your life.

你可能无法改变你的环境，
You may not be able to change your environment,

但你能够改变你对它的反应方式。
but you are able to change the way you react to it.


        积极思考的力量在于虚假的勇气。
        The power of positive thinking lies beyond false courage.

你需要重新看一看你周围的世界。
You need to take another look at the world around you.

你不能只是看看你的失败，否则你会失去希望。
__30 C. You can’t just take a look at your failures,or you will lose hope.__

你不能依赖你的成功，
You can’t rest on your success,

否则愚蠢的骄傲会使你做出错误的决定。

At least, they don't like to be looked at all day every day!

然而，在英国有一个地方，你每天都可以看到很多名人。

        So it is __44 natural__(nature) that making mistakes in your effort to reach your dreams is __45 considered__(consider) a must,

你不应该担心，因为你可能会从错误中获得很多好处。

通过犯错误，你可以区分你所做的正确和不正确的部分。
By making mistakes you then can distinguish between the correct and the __47 incorrect__(correct) portions of what you did.

我们生活中的事业不是要成功，
“Our business in life is not to succeed,

而是要保持良好的精神继续失败。
but to continue to fail in good __49 spirits__(spirit).”
