你好，欢迎你的到来。我是凤超，你身边的高效人生教练，学好时间管理和精力管理，过超然人生！
Making changes that endure, we have found, is a three-step process that we call Purpose-Truth-Action. All three are necessary and none is sufficient by itself.
我们发现一个可以让该改变持久的3个步骤，我们称之为目标-真相-行动，三者缺一不可！
The first step in our change process is to Define Purpose. In the face of our habitual behaviors and our instinct to preserve the status quo, we need inspiration to make changes in our lives. Our first challenge is to answer the question “How should I spend my energy in a way that is consistent with my deepest values?” The consequence of living our lives at warp speed is that we rarely take the time to reflect on what we value most deeply or to keep these priorities front and center. Most of us spend more time reacting to immediate crises and responding to the expectations of others than we do making considered choices guided by a clear sense of what matters most.
改变的第一步是明确目标。面对习惯性行为和喜欢维持现状的本性，我们需要启发才能在生活中做出改变。改变的第一个挑战是回答“如何根据自己最深层的价值观安排精力分配”？我们生活没有按照预期发展是因为我们很少花时间反思我们的价值观或也不愿意把相关的事情放在首要或中心位置。大部分人忙于应对当下的危机和回应别人的期望了，而不是根据重要性（价值观）来进行理性选择！
In the purpose stage, our goal is to help clients to surface and articulate the most important values in their lives and to define a vision for themselves, both personally and professionally. Connecting to a deep set of values and creating a compelling vision fuels a uniquely high-octane source of energy for change. It also serves as a compass for navigating the storms that inevitably arise in our lives.
在定义目标阶段，我们的目标是帮助客户梳理他们生命中最重要的价值观，帮助它们个人和职业愿景。这两者的结合为改变提供强有力精力来源，也如罗盘一样引领我们走出生命中不可避免的暴风雨。
It is impossible to chart a course of change until you are able to look honestly at who you are today. In the next stage of our process, Face the Truth, the first question we ask clients is “How are you spending your energy now?” Each of us finds ways to avoid the most unpleasant and discomfiting truths in our lives. We regularly underestimate the consequences of our energy management choices, failing to honestly acknowledge the foods we are eating; how much alcohol we are consuming; what quality of energy we are investing in our relationships with our bosses, colleagues, spouses and children; and how focused and passionate we really are at work. Too often, we view our lives through rose-colored glasses, painting ourselves as victims, or simply denying to ourselves that the choices we are making are having a consequential impact on the quantity, quality, force and focus of our energy.
只有认清现状才可能进行改变！改变的第二步是面对真相。我们问客户的第一个问题是“你现在是如何花费精力的？" 想尽办法避免生活中不愉悦或令人不愉快的真相是人的天性。我们通常低估精力管理方式（选择）所带来的后果，不能坦然承认所吃的食物；饮用了多少酒精；在维持与老板、同事、配偶和孩子关系中所投入的精力；对工作专注和热情的程度。太多情况下，我们是用有色眼镜来看自己的生活，把自己描述成受害者，或者只是简单粗暴地拒绝承认我们的选择对精力数量、质量、力量和专注力所造成深刻影响。
Facing the truth begins with gathering credible data. When clients come to us, we take them through a variety of physical tests, carefully assess their diets, and give them a detailed questionnaire designed to measure precisely how they are managing their energy physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. We also have five of their closest colleagues fill out a similar questionnaire. All of this data give us a clear picture of their current energy capacity and the obstacles that stand in the way of full engagement.
直面真相需要从收集可信的数据开始。当客户来访时，我们会对他们进行一系列的体能测试，严谨地评估其饮食，进行详细的调查问卷测评其如何在体能、情感、专注力和目标感方面的精力管理。我们也会让其5个交往最密切的同事一个类似的调查问卷。所有的数据会给我们清晰了解其现在精力能力和全情投入所遇到的障碍。
The third step in your change process is to Take Action to close the gap between who you are and who you want to be—between how you manage your energy now and how you want to manage your energy to achieve whatever mission you are on.
改变的第三步是采取行动。用实际行动缩短“现实的你”和“理想中的你”、“现在的精力管理方式”和“理想的精力方式”之间的差距？
This step involves building a personal-development plan grounded in positive energy rituals. Some of our existing habits serve us well, but others are more expedient. They help us get through the day, but take a long-term toll on our performance, health and happiness. Examples include relying on junk food for bursts of energy; smoking or drinking to manage anxiety; furiously multitasking to meet demands; setting aside more challenging, long-term projects in favor of what feels immediately pressing and easier to accomplish, and devoting little energy to personal relationships. The costs of these choices and many others only show up over time.
这步骤中需要建立以积极精力仪式习惯为基础的个人发展计划。现有的某些习惯是有利的，但另外一些习惯是为了满足应急。这些应急习惯可以帮助我们度过短暂的一天，但长期来看，这对我们的效能、健康和幸福有极大的损害作用！例如，吃垃圾食品获得精力的瞬间提升；通过抽烟喝酒来管理焦虑；同时一心多用，同时进行多任务满足需求；忽视更具挑战性、长期的项目，喜欢更多紧急和容易完成的，对人际关系精力投入很少！这些选择的代价（恶果）会随着时间的流失慢慢显现出来！
But just as negative habits and routines in our lives can be undermining and destructive, so positive ones can be uplifting and revitalizing. It is possible to build and sustain energy in all dimensions of our lives rather than watching passively as our capacities slowly diminish with age. Building rituals requires defining very precise behaviors and performing them at very specific times—motivated by deeply held values. As Aristotle said: “We are what we repeatedly do.”
坏习惯和日常行为具有侵蚀性和破坏性，好习惯具有提升和复苏作用，焕发出新状态。在生活中建立和维持各维度的精力充沛是可能的，而不是眼睁睁被动地看着我们的精力随着年龄增加而慢慢衰退下去。正如亚里士多德所说，“我们重复的行为铸造了我们” 。
我的思考My Thinking
很多人总是无法做出有效改变，今天这里有一个很好的改变三部曲：目标-真相-行动！
Many people can't make effective and enduring changes and there's a 3-step process: Purpose-Truth-Action!
目标Purpose
人一般知道自己不想要什么：我不想贫穷、我不想被限制，但却不知道自己想要什么，太多人笼统说，我想要平衡而自由的人生，我想要财富自由，我想要幸福！这些都是很感性的想法，为此采取的行动基本不会持久，毕竟没有想清楚自己需要什么！清晰的目标往往来自我们的价值观，而价值观就是解决什么最重要的问题。这也是是精力管理最高层目标感的维度，逻辑关系如下：价值观→目标→行动！
People are clear about of what they don't want: I don't want to be poor, I don't want be constrained, but never know what they really want. Many people say ambiguously, like I want balanced and free life, i want Financial Freedom, I want happiness, and these are emotional expressions and actions based on will not endure as they are not really clear about what they want! Clear and specific purposes rooted from our deep values which to tell what's the most important. This also belongs to the highest level of the four dimensions of Energy Management. The logic is: Values → Purpose → Actions.
真相Truth
所谓的真相就是真实的现状。逃避真相是人的本性，毕竟真相会让人不舒服！人也倾向于高估自己的能力，比如我决定每天中英文打卡，看似很简单，但每天花至少要花2个小时，假如遇到突发情况，这2小时就没法保证了!；另外一个很好的例子，要减肥的人通常被要求记录一切吃的（没有记录就没有发生），但这是个很大的挑战，很多时候吃东西是无意识的，吃了也不记得了！
Truth is the real current situation. Avoiding unpleasant and discomfiting truths in our lives is human nature. People tend to overestimate their capability, take myself as one example, I plan to share Energy Management everyday bilingually which seems simple, but it takes at least 2 hours which can't be guaranteed when there's an emergency. The other example, the weight controller is usually required to record every bit of foods they had which is challenging as many are aware of what they ate!
了解真相必须从收集数据开始。书中很好的解决方案是本人测评、本人和5位同事填写调查表。
To know the truth starts with collecting data. There are quiz, questionnaire are provided in this book.
行动Action
再完美的计划不行动也也只是空想而已。行动是落地的唯一方式，也是缩小理想和现实差距的唯一方式。行动的目的是为让我们养成良好的精力仪式习惯，这会让我们获得各维度的充沛精力，也会大大减少精力随着年龄增而衰退的速度。
Action makes the plan come and is the only way that brings dreams into reality. Action is to culture the positive rituals of Energy Management which enables us to have strong energy in all dimensions in our lives and slowing down the diminishing speed as we're aging.
