摆脱劳累

 

YOUR MINDSET

 

心态

 

"Oh man, another one of the seself-improvement things. I hope I can do it, but I've tried these thingsbefore, and I just never stick with it."

 

“噢天呐，又是一件提升自我的事，我希望自己能做到，但我以前试过，都没坚持住。”

 

This was something I used to say tomyself every time I try to start something new for myself. There's afear-driven side of your brain which tells you, "You can't do this."

 

以前每次我尝试新鲜事物时都会对自己这样说，你大脑中被恐惧控制的那部分在对你说：“你不行。”

 

What can you do? Well, the tip here isto talk to yourself like you're talking to a friend, or a coworker, or a child who is being told by a bully¹ they can't do something they want to try. So thenext time you try something new, be kind to yourself like you would be kind too thers. You are your own worst critic². But you can also be your staunch defender³. Stand up for yourself against yourself.

 

你该怎么办？嗯，我的建议是你要跟自己谈谈，就像有个混蛋跟你朋友、同事或孩子说他们做不到想做的事时你要跟他们谈的一样。所以下次你尝试新鲜事物时，对自己要像对别人一样和善，你就是自己最大的批评家，但你也是自己忠实的维护者。站起来为了你自己去打败你自己。
