Choose Optimism
選擇樂觀
Optimism and pessimism are both powerful forces,and each of us must choose which we want to shape our outlook and our expectations. There is enough good and bad in everyone's life-ample sorrow and happiness,sufficient joy and pain-to find a rational basis for either optimism or pessimism. We can choose to laugh or cry, bless or curse.It's our decision: From which perspective do we want to view life? Will we look up in hope or down in despair?
樂觀與悲觀是兩種強大的力量,我們每個人都必須在這兩者之間做出選擇,從而塑造我們對未來的展望和期待。每個人的生命中都有足夠多的幸與不幸—數不清的哀傷和喜悅,歡欣與痛苦—給我們樂觀或悲觀的合理理由。我們可以選擇哭或是笑,祝福或是詛咒。這是我們的決定:我們選擇用什麼樣的眼光去看待生活?是昂首去尋找希望抑或垂頭在絕望中逡巡。
An optimistic attitude is not a luxury;it's a necessity.The way you look at life will determine how you feel,how you perform, and how well you will get along with other people.Conversely,negative thoughts, attitudes,and expectations feed on themselves; they become a self-fulfilling prophecy.Pessimism creates a dismal place where no one wants to live.
樂觀的態度不是一種奢侈品;它是我們生活的必需品。你看待生活的方式將決定你的感受、你的表現,以及你與他人相處得如何。反過來,悲觀的想法、態度和預期也會自成因果:它們是能自我實現的預言。悲觀會製造出無人願往的黑暗處所。
Optimism diverts our attention away from negativism and channels it into positive, constructive thinking. When you're an optimist, you're more concerned with problem-solving than with useless carping about issues. In fact, without optimist, issues as big and ongoing as poverty have no hope of solution. It takes a dreamer-someone with hopelessly optimistic ideas, great persistence, and unlimited confidence-to tackle a problem that big. It's your choice.
樂觀精神使我們的注意力從消極的否定態度轉向積極的、建設性的思考。如果你是樂觀主義者,你會更關心如何解決問題,而不是毫無意義地怨天尤人。事實上,如果沒有樂觀向上的精神,像貧窮這樣沉重且持續存在的問題是沒有希望解決的。解決這樣的問題需要一個夢想家—一個擁有九死不悔的樂觀精神、矢志不渝的堅韌態度和無限信心的人。樂觀還是悲觀,在於你自己的選擇。
