我們都有麻煩事，有時(shí)候總想跟別人傾訴。這可以理解，但要注意你吐槽的頻率。我們都喜歡幫助朋友和家人，但如果從那個(gè)人身上我只能感知到負(fù)能量，那么還是離得越遠(yuǎn)越好吧，尤其是當(dāng)他們?cè)诜磸?fù)抱怨同一件事的時(shí)候。

Stop Being Selfish
別再那么自私
If you only think about yourself， you’llsoon find yourself by yourself. Stop for a minute and think about how youractions affect other people – did you take the last cup of coffee from thebreak room？ Refill it！ Do you live with others？ Don’t drink out the milkcarton. We share this world 100% of the time， so every action you take canaffect other people.
如果你只考慮你自己，那么很快你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)身邊只剩下你自己。停一分鐘想想你的行為會(huì)給別人帶來什么影響吧——你是不是從休息室拿了最后一杯咖啡？再倒?jié)M呀！你是不是和別人合租？不要喝光所有的牛奶，這個(gè)世界是一個(gè)完全由大家分享的世界，你所做的每件事都會(huì)影響到別人。
9
Stop Wasting Time
別再浪費(fèi)時(shí)間
I’ve said it before， and I’ll say it again：time is the most valuable resource we have. Don’t waste your time onunproductive things. If you want to explore the world’s dark corners， that’sgreat. I still associate with people who have not-so-kosher careers， but Idon’t hang out with those people at the expense of my own short- and long-termgoals.
雖然之前說過了，但我還想再說一遍：時(shí)間是我們擁有的最寶貴的資源，不要把時(shí)間浪費(fèi)在沒有意義的事情上面，如果你想探索這個(gè)世界的黑暗角落，很好。我也認(rèn)識(shí)一些沒有固定工作的一些自由職業(yè)者，但我不會(huì)以犧牲自己的短期長(zhǎng)期目標(biāo)為代價(jià)和他們出去玩樂。
10
Stop Making Promises
別再做承諾
Always under-promise and over-deliver. Whenyou make a promise， you’re adding responsibility to your plate that， despiteall your best intentions， you may not be able to deliver on. More often thannot， your promise is an absolute (i.e “I promise I’ll always love you”)， and onlySith deal in absolutes. Instead of making a promise with your words， simply bethere when people need you， and exceed their expectations with your actions.
總是做承諾，總是做不到。每次做承諾都是不禁給自己增添了責(zé)任，無(wú)論你的出發(fā)點(diǎn)有多好，你都不可能完成所有的部分。大部分時(shí)候，你的承諾都太過絕對(duì)(比如“我發(fā)誓我永遠(yuǎn)愛你”)，也只能在絕對(duì)環(huán)境中才能實(shí)現(xiàn)。與其用語(yǔ)言許下承諾，不如在別人需要你的時(shí)候出現(xiàn)，然后用行動(dòng)達(dá)到他們的期望吧。
11
Stop Being a Pushover
不要做老好人
We live in a capitalistic society in whicheveryone’s trying to sell us something. Everyone’s looking out for themselvesin one way or another， and you need to do the same. Stop putting yourself outbecause you’re too shy to say no.
我們所處的社會(huì)，每個(gè)人都試圖告知我們一些事情。每個(gè)人都從不同的角度去找尋著自己，你也需要，你要做的就是在合適的時(shí)候說不。
12
Stop Listening to Haters
不要聽討厭的人說話
No matter what you want to do in life，there’s always someone around to tell you why it can’t and won’t work. I cancome up with millions of reasons Twitter won’t work， and yet it’s one of themost popular social media sites on the web. My opinion didn’t stop Twitter’ssuccess any more than it convinced Kobe Bryant to quit the NBA or Josh Hartnettto stop acting. Why would you let someone’s opinion stop you？
無(wú)論你想干什么，總會(huì)有人告訴你不要這么做，沒有用的。我可以想出成百萬(wàn)條推特不實(shí)用的理由，但它還是互聯(lián)網(wǎng)上最流行的社交網(wǎng)站之一。我的想法不會(huì)阻止推特的成功，就像你無(wú)法勸科比退出NBA或喬什·哈奈特不要當(dāng)演員了一樣，都毫無(wú)意義。那么為什么要讓別人的想法阻止你呢？
13
Stop Being Wasteful
停止浪費(fèi)
You don’t finish your meals，and away food instead. You leave the faucet running when you brush your teeth，pouring precious water down the drain. You drive places you could easily walk，burning gasoline (a non-renewable resource)。 You are wasteful，and it needs to stop.
你飯沒吃完，然后扔掉食物；刷牙的時(shí)候還開著水龍頭，就讓寶貴的水嘩嘩的流走；明明可以走到的地方你偏要開車，燃燒汽油(無(wú)法再生資源)。如果你浪費(fèi)了，那就趕緊停止這一惡習(xí)。
14
Stop Littering
不要亂扔垃圾
The only thing I hate more than wastefulpeople are litterbugs. Litterbugs are my least favorite bug， and there are morethan you’d think. If you’ve ever thrown even one piece of gum， paper， candywrapper， cigarette butt， etc on the ground， you’re a disgusting litterbug， andyou should be ashamed of yourself. There are over 7 billion people in the world– if each person only throws one “innocent” piece ofgarbage on the ground， that’s 7 billion pieces of garbage littering a world in which nobody “did it”。
唯一一個(gè)讓我覺得比浪費(fèi)的人更可惡的就是垃圾蟲。垃圾蟲最讓我厭惡，而且永遠(yuǎn)多的讓你數(shù)不清。如果你曾扔過一塊口香糖，一張紙、糖果包裝、煙蒂，那么你就是惡心的垃圾蟲。你應(yīng)該感到恥辱。世界上有超過70億的人——如果每個(gè)人都無(wú)意識(shí)的扔一點(diǎn)垃圾，那么全世界就會(huì)變成70億垃圾場(chǎng)，哪怕沒有罪魁禍?zhǔn)住?br />
Your one decision makes a HUGE difference，and I will not allow you to blow it off and walk around with your head heldhigh. You’re a litterbug， and it needs to stop immediately. You don’t get alifehack for this one， you filthy animal. Just stop – you already know how.
