Let's go! Tell me about yourself. ספר לי על עצמך. I regard life as my toy store. אני מחשיב את החיים כחנות הצעצועים שלי. Better to ask permission than forgiveness. עדיף לבקש רשות מאשר סליחה. Only by error do we learn. רק בטעות אנו לומדים. And by observation. Error and observation. Observe more! ועל ידי התבוננות. טעות והתבוננות. התבונן יותר!
Now I can only ask for forgiveness. עכשיו אני יכול רק לבקש סליחה. How we feel about something is often determined by the story we tell ourselves about it. איך אנחנו מרגישים לגבי משהו נקבע לרוב על ידי הסיפור שאנחנו מספרים לעצמנו עליו. The story people tell us about themselves tells us little about who they are, and much about who they want us to believe they are.
הסיפור שאנשים מספרים לנו על עצמם מספר לנו מעט על מי הם, והרבה על מי שהם רוצים שנאמין שהם. The ability to delay gratification is a predictor of success in life. היכולת לדחות סיפוקים היא מנבא להצלחה בחיים. I leave the last bite of something tasty to make future-me love current-me. אני משאיר את הביס האחרון של משהו טעים כדי לגרום לעתיד לאהוב אותי הנוכחי.
Delayed gratification at the extreme is no gratification. סיפוק מושהה בקיצוניות אינו סיפוק. If you can't be happy with a coffee, then you can't be happy with a yacht. אם אתה לא יכול להיות מאושר עם קפה, אז אתה לא יכול להיות מאושר עם יאכטה. The first rule of winning the game is to stop moving the goalposts הכלל הראשון של ניצחון במשחק הוא להפסיק להזיז את עמודי השער Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler.
הכל צריך להיות פשוט ככל האפשר, אבל לא פשוט יותר. I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned. אני מעדיף שאלות שאי אפשר לענות עליהן מאשר תשובות שאי אפשר להטיל בהן ספק. My mind is made up of an elephant and a rider. המוח שלי מורכב מפיל ורוכב. Only by doing things the elephant dislikes will I know if the rider is in control.
רק על ידי עשיית דברים שהפיל לא אוהב אדע אם הרוכב שולט. I end every hot shower with 1 minute of cold water. אני מסיים כל מקלחת חמה עם דקה אחת של מים קרים. The elephant never wants to do it, the rider always does. הפיל אף פעם לא רוצה לעשות את זה, הרוכב תמיד רוצה. Discipline is the act of proving to yourself that you can trust yourself. משמעת היא הפעולה של להוכיח לעצמך שאתה יכול לסמוך על עצמך.
Discipline is freedom. משמעת היא חופש. Discipline must be practiced, in small and big ways. יש לתרגל משמעת, בקטנות ובגדולות. Self esteem is a mountain made of layers of paint. הערכה עצמית היא הר העשוי משכבות צבע. Not everything has to be so serious. לא הכל חייב להיות כל כך רציני. When you bring the fun, the world appreciates it. כשאתה מביא את הכיף, העולם מעריך את זה.
Have you ever thought about how scary the ocean would be if fish could scream? האם אי פעם חשבת על כמה האוקיינוס היה מפחיד אם דגים היו יכולים לצרוח?
