Guiding Yourself with the Future用未来引领自己

Guiding Yourself with the Future

If everything goes well, right up one’s alley,

one is inclined to stand still and confine himself to where he is.

Only by challenging himself, can a man make progress.

So, don’t set limit on yourself,

then you’ll find your way unlimited.

If we climb a mountain but give it up halfway,

nothing will be changed;

Only when we push ourselves forward against the pressure, and hold on straight to the end,

can we see the bright moon as dark clouds clear up.

Do not define yourself as “incapable”,

otherwise, even a man of great capability will turn out to be incapable;

Instead, keep thinking that “I can make it”,

then what seemed impossible turns out to be absolutely possible.

Please make a vow and ask yourself “What do I want?”

Then trace gradually backward to the very start:

To fulfill this vow, what should I do now?

That is, do not confine yourself to the past.

Guide yourself with the future.

用未来引领自己

样样如意、得心应手，

人就容易故步自封，

把自己限制住了。

要做有挑战的事，人才能成长。

不要给自己限制，

人生的路就可以无限。

一座山，如果爬到一半就放弃，

一切都不会改变；

只有顶着压力往前进，坚持到底，

才能守得云开见月明。

不要给自己下定义说“能力不够”，

否则再有能力的人也会变成没有能力；

反过来，要去想“我一定能做到”，

那么做不到也会变成做到。

要发愿，我想要什么？

然后从这个愿慢慢向回推：

要实现这个愿，我现在应该做什么？

不要让过去把自己限制住，

要用未来引领自己。
