 These 10 habits of highly successful women range from maintaining your hormonal¹ balance to letting go of the past -- and they will positively² affect your mind, body, and soul.

　　成功女士的这十个好习惯会保持你的荷尔蒙平衡,放开过去的事情,能够对你的想法,身体,甚至灵魂产生积极的影响.

　　Taking action is a crucial habit of successful women…and so is dreaming! Don't let go of your passions...

　　采取行动是成功女人的好习惯之一,梦想也是.不要忘却了你的热情.

　　1. Maintain your hormonal balance.

　　保持你的内分泌平衡.

　　Are you moody³, exhausted⁴, irritable⁵, or sad? Check your hormones⁶. If they're out of whack⁷, then you'll struggle to be successful! Make sure you're getting enough protein and vitamins, and decrease your refined sugars and carbohydrates⁸.

　　你是否是个喜怒无常,疲惫,急躁,忧郁的人?检查下你的内分泌情况吧,如果失衡的话,你就很难成功.确保你每天都摄入足够的蛋白质和维他命,减少糖分和碳水化合物的吸收.

　　2. Forgive yourself for your mistakes.

　　如果你犯了错误的话,要学会原谅自己.

　　Highly successful women don't obsess⁹ or feel guilty about past choices or failures. They make mistakes, move on, and apply what they've learned to new situations.

　　成功女人不会为了过去的失败或选择而感到迷惑或有罪恶感.他们犯了错误后,会继续前进,将自己在错误中学到的经验应用到新的情况中.

　　3. Connect with who you are.

　　将你的所有角色连接起来.

　　Being a daughter, wife, or mother is one aspect of your life. It does't define who you are as a woman. To connect with who you are, find and express your authentic¹⁰ self. The more authentic you are, the more appealing you'll be to others – and to yourself!

　　女儿,妻子,母亲都是你生活的方方面面.但这并没有规定你应该成为什么样的女人.将你的人生角色连接起来,找出你真实的自我并超越.你越自信,你就越有吸引力,不管是对自己还是对别人.

　　4. Avoid energy vampires¹¹.

　　避免吸能器.

　　Do you feel drained or sad after spending time with a particular friend, coworker, or relative? Limit the time you spend with him or her. Note how you feel after visiting with a certain person; if you feel energized¹² and happy, then you're in good company. Highly successful women choose their companions wisely.

　　在和某个特别的朋友,同事或亲戚相处一段时间后,你是否感到筋疲力尽或者忧郁呢?那就限制你和他呆在一起的时间.在你拜访一个人之后注意你的感觉,如果你感到高兴,能力满满的话,那就是说你有一些好同伴.成功女人会明智地选择自己的同伴.

5. Speak kindly¹³ to yourself!

　　亲切的和自己对话.

　　If you beat yourself up for being overweight, a "bad" mom, or not exercising enough, you just create a downward spiral. Highly successful women remind themselves of their achievements and successes. They refuse to tell themselves negative things; they accept themselves.

　　如果你被肥胖,坏妈妈,或者不够兴奋打败了的话,你就是使自己进入了一个恶性循环.成功女士都会时刻提醒自己所取得的成就和成功.她们拒绝告诉自己消极的事情,而是真诚地接受自己.

　　6. Listen to your body.

　　听从你的身体.

　　I heard Oprah Winfrey say this about 10 years ago: listen to what your body is telling you. Are you sad, furious, or depressed¹⁴? Follow your body's cues.

　　10年以前我就听Oprah Winfrey说过:听听你身体告诉你的.你是否悲伤,易怒,忧郁?听从你身体的暗示.

　　7. Volunteer your time.

　　贡献你的时间.

　　Find something that takes you out of your comfort zone or that you love to do. You'll feel great that you're helping¹⁵ others out – and volunteering directly improves your physical health. Highly successful women step out of their comfort zones and takes risks.

　　找一些你喜爱做的事情让你远离自己的安乐窝.如果你帮助别人解决了难题的话,你会感觉非常良好的,而志愿工作会直接提高你的身体健康.成功女人都会走出他们的安乐窝,迎接新的挑战.

　　8. Let go of perfectionism.

　　放弃十全十美的想法吧.

　　Strive to do your best, but let go of perfectionist tendencies. Accepting that you're doing the best you can is a habit of highly successful women. Letting go of perfectionism is vitamins and exercise for the soul!

　　尽你最大的努力去奋斗,但是不要执着于十全十美.接受你尽了最大的努力是成功女性的好习惯之一.放弃十全十美的想法是灵魂的维他命和一种锻炼.

　　9. Use your core strengths.

　　利用你的核心优势.

　　Are you a natural mathematician¹⁶, writer, or party planner? Discover your core strengths by trying different things until you find what fits. To take risks and try new things, take short-term volunteer positions or volunteer for new projects at work or in your community.

　　你是否天生是个数学家,作家或者宴会策划人?你可以通过不断的尝试来发现自己的优势,直到你找到最适合自己的为止.你可以挑战新事物,做短期志愿者,或志愿接受工作或团队中的新项目.

　　10. Take time for yourself.

　　留一些时间给自己.

　　This habit for highly successful women is my favorite: take time to recharge your batteries and refuel your emotional, spiritual, and physical energy. Spend at least a few minutes alone each day – even if you have to lock yourself in the bathroom to do it!

　　成功女性的这个好习惯是我最喜欢的一点:花时间充电,重新点燃你的激情,调节你的精神,身体能量.即使是要把自己锁在浴室里面,每天也要找出一点时间独处.
