Live For Today

Live For Today Source：Internet /> How does one live for today? 如何才能更好地活在当下呢? We start by not waiting for something bad to happen to spur us into action. And we commit to this as part of our daily lives. Here are four questions that can start you on your way: 不要等待不幸来促使我们采取行动。我们要将决心作为习惯融入生活。以下是要问的四个问题: Do I know what really matters to me? 我知道对我来说到底什么是重要的吗？ Do I know what brings me joy? 我知道什么能带给我快乐吗？ Are there things in my life that need to go to make room for what's important? 生活中有什么事情可以被搁置，以便为重要的事情腾出空间? What am I waiting for? 我在等待什么？ We start with these questions because you need to know what matters at your core in order to have a more fulfilling life. What makes you happy? What makes you uncomfortable or even angry? Although we can't avoid some of the mundane tasks in life we can couple them with things that bring us joy. 我们用这些问题开场，因为你得先了解你心里什么最重要，才能过上充实的生活。什么让你快乐？什么让你感到不舒服甚至愤怒？虽然我们无法回避生活中枯燥的活动，但我们能将快乐和无聊融合起来。 You also need to identify the people, places and things that drain you emotionally, spiritually and physically. If you can't eliminate them from your life you need to find ways to minimize your exposure to them and their impact on your life. 你还需要发现从情感上、精神上、体力上折磨你的人、地点和事情。如果你无法完全把他们从你的生活中消除，你需要想办法减少和他们的接触，将他们对你生活的影响最小化。 Honestly access your wants, needs and aspirations. Do you have a dream that has gone unfulfilled? Why? If the answer is you're waiting for such and such to happen, now is the time to stop waiting and take action. Then you can banish woulda, coulda, shoulda from your vocabulary. 诚实地了解自己想要、需要和渴望哪些东西。你有未实现的梦想吗？为何没实现？如果是因为你守株待兔而不行动，那现在就是停止等待、开始行动的时候。这样你才会让“本来如何”，“本可以如何”，“本应该如何”从你的字典里消失。 Finally, remember that each day is a gift (yes even if you are stuck in traffic, the baby is crying, or you've burnt tonight's dinner) and your life can change in an instant. 最后，记着，每一天都是一份礼物（即便交通拥堵、孩子哭闹、晚饭被烧焦），你的生活眨眼之间就能改变。 /> Rebecca Lin 2009 Winter In USA/>
