Do you have the habits of a successful person? Your habits alone determine who you become. Your habits alone determine if you succeed.
你有成功人士所有的习惯吗?仅仅你的习惯就能决定你能成为谁,是否迈向成功。
James Allen said, "We are anxious to change our circumstances, but we are unwilling to change ourselves."
詹姆斯·艾伦曾经说过:“我们都努力去改变我们周围的环境,但我们都不愿意去改变我们自己。”
Put it another way, we are anxious to succeed, but we are unwilling to create the habits that cause success.
换句话来说,我们都很努力想要迈向成功,但我们却都不愿意去培养那些带来成功的习惯。
The Law of Habit 习惯的黄金定律
The Law of Habit states that the more frequently you perform a task the easier is becomes to perform that task the next time, and consequently, the more difficult it becomes not to perform the task.
习惯的黄金定律表明:一件事情,你完成的次数越多,就越容易去完成这一件事,也就是说,这件事情就会变得越来越容易了。
If you go the same way to work everyday, you would find it difficult to go in a different direction, simply because we are creatures of habit, and we protect the habits that we have, good or bad.
如果你每天都走同一条路去上班,你会发现你很难再另寻他径。那仅仅是因为我们是有习惯的生物,我们会不论好与坏地去保护我们所现拥有的习惯。
Over 90 percent of the tasks that we complete are rooted in habit: the way we put on our shirt, brush our teeth, skip flossing at night, all are rooted in habit.
我们完成的事情有超过90%都已经根深蒂固地成为了习惯,就像我们穿衣服的方式、刷牙的方式、晚上剔牙的方式等等。
Our habits are a very powerful tool, and when used to our benefit can be life altering. However, they can also be used to our detriment.
我们的习惯是一个非常强大的工具,当我们把习惯运用在对我们有利的地方时,将会是终生受用的。然而,习惯也会对我们造成伤害。
The Purpose of Discipline and Will Power 纪律和意志力的目的
Discipline will only get you so far. In order to make progress you need to tap into the power of your subconscious mind, the source of your habits.
纪律能帮到你的始终有限。你只有把好习惯的力量潜移默化地融入潜意识中,才会有所提高。
The subconscious mind is the “work horse” of the mind because it controls your habits; it manages the “habits” that accounts for your life.
潜意识是大脑的忠实地执行者,它操纵着那些与你生活息息相关的习惯。
If you have good habits programmed into your subconscious mind, then you will do good things, and you will succeed. And, if you have bad habits programmed into your subconscious mind, then you will act accordingly.
如果你拥有一个好的习惯,你就会去做一些对自己有益的事情,一步一步迈向成功。但如果你有些根深蒂固的坏习惯,你也会相应地表现出来。
Discipline and will power are to be used to create the right habits, and then those habits will give you the life you desire.
纪律和意志力都能帮你培养一些好的习惯,那些习惯会协助你过上自己想要的生活。
