永远永远不要说放弃

永远永远不要说放弃

No matter how successful you are in life and business, success doesn’t give you immunity from humanity. We all have days where we don’t want to get out of bed. But…what happens when this feeling lasts for days or weeks or months? What happens when we feel like we’ve lost purpose and we just want to give up, whether on a career or relationship?

在生活中，在工作上，不管你是多么成功，成功不会赋予你免受生活带来的苦难。总有那么些天不想起床，但是，当这种情况连续出现几天，几周，或是几个月呢？不管是在工作上还是感情上，当我们感觉我们生活的目的不明确，想要放弃的时候会怎样呢？

I’ve identified the seven things you need to do when you feel like giving up.

当你感觉想要放弃的时候，看看我已经归纳出来的这些。

Go Back To ‘Why’

回过头来问自己“为什么”

As Simon Sinek says, it starts with ‘why.’ Occasionally, we start with one vision in mind and end up moving so far away from why we started a business, job or relationship in the first place that we end up lost and questioning our decisions and actions. Maybe you can’t remember the last time you were happy. Perhaps your big colorful picture of where you wanted to head has slowly turned to black and white. Get back that clarity! Every 90 days revisit your big ‘why’ to ensure you’re on track and achieving what you want.

就像西蒙 西尼克所说，得先找找“为什么”。有时候，起初在我们心里都有一个关于事业、工作、感情的美好愿景，但是最后的结果却与我们的愿景相差太远。失败之后，我们就会质疑我们最初的决定，我们的行动。也许你不记得上次上次开心是什么时候。也许在你脑海中的那个五彩缤纷的画面也已经慢慢的变成黑白色。让她变得清晰起来吧。每隔90天就问问自己“为什么”，以确保你走在正确的道路上，以确保你能实现你的目标。

Learn To Feel Uncomfortable

学着去感受生活中的不舒适

Life is not easy nor is it meant to be. We are always facing hurdles and obstacles that we must overcome, which is all part of the journey. If you can accept that things will get tough and it won’t always be roses and sweet-smelling kittens, you’ll get yourself better prepared for what’s to come. When you feel stuck in a rut you must learn to breathe, reset and revisit your goals. What is it that you’re going for in business and in life? A simple readjustment and a brief ‘time out’ can dramatically move you forward like you never thought possible.

生活并不容易，也不应该是容易的。在生活中，我们总是会遇到我们必须经历的障碍，因为这是这段旅途中的一部分。你得接受这些你认为很困难的东西，生活中并不会满是芳香的玫瑰和温顺的小猫，为了能应付接下来所要面对的困难，你得让你自己变得更好。当感觉自己快要无法呼吸时，你要学会呼吸，重新设立，重新审视你的目标。在你的事业和生活中，那算是什么？小小的调整，短暂的时间内就会让你做到在你过去认为那是不可能做到的事。

Win Through Persistence

坚持就是胜利

Winston Churchill said, “If you have an important point to make, don’t try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time – a tremendous whack.” Persistence is the key if you want to win. I’ve felt like giving up many times during my entrepreneurial journey and the persistence to make things happen has kept me going. Understanding and truly believing that persistence delivers results will keep you moving forward.

温斯顿·丘吉尔 说过，“要是你有一件重要的事情要去做，不要试着去洞察一切，或者是自作聪明，用你满腔的干劲儿，做第一次，不行就回到原点，再试一次，或者做第三次----或者很多次。”要是你想要取得胜利，坚持才是最重要的。在我创业期间我觉得我放弃了很多次，但是是坚持不懈的去做才让我获得的成功。真正的了解，真正的相信坚持不懈会让你不断前进。

Share Your Goals

与人分享你的目标

You wake up and decide that today is the day you’ll quit smoking. You start the morning strong, but don’t want to mention it to anyone at work in case you feel like one at afternoon tea. Find an ‘accountability buddy’ to keep you on track. Sure, this is scary, but it ensures you deliver on your promise to yourself. Make sure the other person will show you some tough love. This will keep you honest and continually taking action.

早上醒来，你决定从今天开始戒烟。早上的时候，你还很坚定，但是又要防止自己在喝下午茶的时候想来一根，所以不愿向别人提起戒烟的事。找一个“有原则的兄弟”帮你坚持。当然，有点可怕，但是这样能让你坚持你的决定。这个人一定得能对你说出逆耳忠言，这样才能让你对自己诚实，以便继续保持这种最正确的做法。

Acknowledge Challenges

接受挑战

Oh yes, there will be tough times – but you already know this. When you feel like giving up because it’s too tough, it’s not a surprise as you knew the journey wouldn’t be full of rainbows and bunnies. Acknowledge the challenge, embrace it, learn what you can and power on!

哦，是的，肯定会有一段艰苦的岁月----但是你是早已经知道会这样的。当你感觉自己因为太困难而想要放弃的时候，你也并不会觉得很惊讶，因为这段旅程注定不是一帆风顺。接受挑战，拥抱它，学习你能学到的，掌握你能掌握的能力。

Get Happy

要快乐

We all get in a funk every now and again. That’s just the way we’re built. But, instead of lying on the sofa eating ice cream out of the tub and putting on your favorite sitcom, get happy! Think back to the last time you were really thriving in your life. Think about what you were doing and make that happen again!

时不时的，我们都会感觉到恐惧。这是我们自己决定要走的路，但是与其是窝在沙发里吃冰激凌，还不如泡个澡换上自己做喜欢的衣服，让自己变得快乐起来。回想最近一次你觉得你真的觉得很快乐的时光，想想那时你是做了什么，然后再做一次。

Be Proud

为自己感到骄傲

Sometimes we forget to stop and smell the flowers. Along those lines, we also forget to celebrate the victories our efforts have created. Be proud of where you have come from and what you’ve achieved. Every 90 days, review the last three months, and soak up your achievements no matter how small they are.

有时我们忘记了停下来，闻闻花香。谈到这里，我们也忘记了要庆祝通过努力而获得的成功。为你的家乡，为你所取得的成就而感到自豪。每隔90天就回顾一下最近三个月你所取得的成就，不管这些成就是多大还是多小，你都能从中受益。

The next time you feel like giving up, ask yourself if you’ve done everything possible in your current situation to maximize the opportunity. Have you experienced all the learnings, happiness and pain associated with what you want to achieve? If the answer is no, then keep going until you have!

下次当你想要放弃的时候，问问你自己，在目前的情况下，你是否做到了争取到了最多的机会，尽可能多的做到了你能够做到的？在追逐梦想的路上，你是否已经学习了你所需要学习的，是否经历了与梦想有观点所有快乐的、痛苦的事？要是答案是否定的，那么在你经历了这些之前请继续努力吧！
