On Motes and Beams 微塵與棟梁
It is curious that our own offenses should seem so much less heinous than the offenses of others. I suppose the reason is that we know all the circumstances that have occasioned them and so manage to excuse in ourselves what we cannot excuse in others. We turn our attention away from our own defects, and when we are forced by untoward events to consider them, find it easy to condone them. For all I know we are right to do this; they are part of us and we must accept the good and bad in ourselves together.
But when we come to judge others, it is not by ourselves as we really are that we judge them, but by an image that we have formed of ourselves fro which we have left out everything that offends our vanity or would discredit us in the eyes of the world. To take a trivial instance: how scornful we are when we catch someone out telling a lie; but who can say that he has never told not one, but a hundred?
There is not much to choose between men. They are all a hotchpotch of greatness and littleness, of virtue and vice, of nobility and baseness. Some have more strength of character, or more opportunity, and so in one direction or another give their instincts freer play, but potentially they are the same. For my part, I do not think I am any better or any worse than most people, but I know that if I set down every action in my life and every thought that has crossed my mind, the world would consider me a monster of depravity. The knowledge that these reveries are common to all men should inspire one with tolerance to oneself as well as to others. It is well also if they enable us to look upon our fellows, even the most eminent and respectable, with humor, and if they lead us to take ourselves not too seriously.

微塵與棟梁
讓人奇怪的是，和別人的過(guò)錯(cuò)比起來(lái)，我們自身的過(guò)錯(cuò)往往不是那樣的可惡。我想，其原因應(yīng)該是我們知曉一切導(dǎo)致自己犯錯(cuò)的情況，因此能夠設(shè)法諒解自己的錯(cuò)誤，而別人的錯(cuò)誤卻不能諒解。我們對(duì)自己的缺點(diǎn)不甚關(guān)注，即便是深陷困境而不得不正視它們的時(shí)候，我們也會(huì)很容易就寬恕自己。據(jù)我所知，我們這樣做是正確的。缺點(diǎn)是我們自身的一部分，我們必須接納自己的好和壞。
但是當(dāng)我們?cè)u(píng)判別人的時(shí)候，情況就不同了。我們不是通過(guò)真實(shí)的自我來(lái)評(píng)判別人，而是用一種自我形象來(lái)評(píng)判，這種自我形象完全摒棄了在任何世人眼中會(huì)傷害到自己的虛榮或者體面的東西。舉一個(gè)小例子來(lái)說(shuō)：當(dāng)覺察到別人說(shuō)謊時(shí)，我們是多么地蔑視他??！但是，誰(shuí)能夠說(shuō)自從未說(shuō)過(guò)謊？可能還不止一百次呢。
人和人之間沒什么大的差別。他們皆是偉大與渺小，善良與邪惡，高尚與低俗的混合體。有的人性格比較堅(jiān)毅，機(jī)會(huì)也比較多，因而達(dá)個(gè)或那個(gè)方面，能夠更自由地發(fā)揮自己的稟賦，但是人類的潛能卻都是相同的。至于我自己，我認(rèn)為自己并不比大多數(shù)人更好或者更差，但是我知道，假如我記下我生命中每一次舉動(dòng)和每一個(gè)掠過(guò)我腦海的想法的話，世界就會(huì)將我視為一個(gè)邪惡的怪物。每個(gè)人都會(huì)有這樣的怪念頭，這樣的認(rèn)識(shí)應(yīng)當(dāng)能夠啟發(fā)我們寬容自己，也寬容他人。同時(shí)，假如因此我們得以用幽默的態(tài)度看待他人，即使是天下秀最令人尊敬的人，而且假如我們也因此不把自己看得過(guò)于重要，那是很有裨益的。
Giving Life Meaning 給生命以意義
Have you thought about what you want people to say about you after you’re gone? Can you hear the voice saying, “He was a GREat man.” Or “She really will be missed.” What else do they say?
One of the strangest phenomena of life is to engage in a work that will last long after death. Isn’t that a lot like investing all your money so that future generations can bare interest on it? Perhaps, yet if you look deep in your own heart, you’ll find something drives you to make this kind of contribution---something drives every human being to find a purpose that lives on after death.
Do you hope to memorialize your name? Have a name that is whispered with reverent awe? Do you hope to have your face carved upon 50 ft of granite rock? Is the answer really that simple? Is the purpose of lifetime contribution an ego-driven desire for a mortal being to have an immortal name or is it something more?
A child alive today will die tomorrow. A baby that had the potential to be the next Einstein will die from complication is at birth. The circumstances of life are not set in stone. We are not all meant to live life through to old age. We’ve grown to perceive life3 as a full cycle with a certain number of years in between. If all of those years aren’t lived out, it’s a tragedy. A tragedy because a human’s potential was never realized. A tragedy because a spark was snuffed out before it ever became a flame.
By virtue of inhabiting a body we accept these risks. We expose our mortal flesh to the laws of the physical environment around us. The trade off isn’t so bad when you think about it. The problem comes when we construct mortal fantasies of what life should be like. When life doesn’t conform to our fantasy we grow upset, frustrated, or depressed.
We are alive; let us live. We have the ability to experience; let us experience. We have the ability to learn; let us learn. The meaning of life can be grasped in a moment. A moment so brief it often evades our perception.
What meaning stands behind the dramatic unfolding of life? What single truth can we grasp and hang onto for dear life when all other truths around us seem to fade with time?
These moments are strung together in a series we call events. These events are strung together in a series we call life. When we seize the moment and bend it according to our will, a will driven by the spirit deep inside us, then we have discovered the meaning of life, a meaning for us that shall go on long after we depart this Earth.

給生命以意義
你有沒有想過(guò)，你希望人們?cè)谀闼篮笤鯓釉u(píng)論你？你能否聽到這樣的說(shuō)，“他是個(gè)偉大的人”或“人們的確會(huì)懷念她”，他們還會(huì)說(shuō)些什么？
人生最奇異的現(xiàn)象之一就是，你從事的事業(yè)在你死后仍將長(zhǎng)久存在。這和你用所的錢進(jìn)行投資以便后人能從中獲益不是如出一轍嗎？也許，如果你審視自己的內(nèi)心深處，你就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)促使你做出這種貢獻(xiàn)的驅(qū)動(dòng)力-一種驅(qū)使每個(gè)人尋找在自己死后仍能繼續(xù)存在的事業(yè)的驅(qū)動(dòng)力。
你希望自己的名字被人記住嗎？你希望別人提起你的名字時(shí)心懷敬畏嗎？你希望自己的面容被雕刻在50英尺高的花崗巖上嗎？答案真的那么簡(jiǎn)單嗎？貢獻(xiàn)一生的目的難道終將一死之人想要獲得不朽名聲的自我鞭策的欲望？抑或是其他更偉大的事物？
今天活著的孩子明天就會(huì)死去。一個(gè)有可能成為下一個(gè)愛因斯坦的嬰兒會(huì)死于出生并發(fā)癥。生命的情形并不是固定不變的。我們并沒有注定都要活到老年。我們已經(jīng)認(rèn)識(shí)到，生命是一個(gè)周期，其時(shí)間長(zhǎng)度是特定的。如果這些時(shí)間沒有被充分利用，那就是個(gè)悲劇，因?yàn)槿说臐撃苓€未實(shí)現(xiàn)，因?yàn)榛鸹ㄟ€沒形成火焰就被補(bǔ)滅。
由于存在于肉體之中，所以我們接受這些風(fēng)險(xiǎn)。我們使易朽的肉體服從周圍物理環(huán)境的法則。你仔細(xì)想一想就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)，這種交易并不是那么糟糕。當(dāng)我們幻想生命應(yīng)該如何時(shí)，問(wèn)題就來(lái)了。當(dāng)生命和我們的幻想不一致時(shí)，我們就變得煩惱，無(wú)奈或沮喪。
我們活著，那我們就要活得精彩；我們有能力體驗(yàn)，那我們就要體驗(yàn)人生甘苦；我們有能力學(xué)習(xí)，那我們就要在學(xué)海徜徉。生命的意義可以在一瞬間抓住-一個(gè)經(jīng)常被我們忽略的短暫瞬間。
當(dāng)生命戲劇般地一幕幕拉開時(shí)，其中隱含的意義是什么？當(dāng)我們周圍所有其他都似乎隨著時(shí)間而消逝時(shí)，我們能夠掌握哪個(gè)真理并依靠它來(lái)生活呢？
這些瞬間串聯(lián)在一起，我們稱之為事件。這些事件串聯(lián)系在一起， 我們稱之為生活。當(dāng)我們抓住那個(gè)瞬間并按照我們的意志來(lái)改變它-這意志受到我們內(nèi)心深處的精神的驅(qū)使，我們就發(fā)現(xiàn)了生命的意義-這意義將在我們離開地球之后長(zhǎng)久存在。
Born to Win 生而為贏
Each human being is born as something new, something that never existed before. Each is born with the capacity to win at life. Each person has a unique way of seeing, hearing, touching, tasting and thinking. Each has his or her own unique potentials---capabilities and limitations. Each can be a significant, thinking, aware, and creative being---a productive person, a winner.
The word “winner” and “l(fā)oser” have many meanings. When we refer to a person as a winner, we do not mean one who makes someone else lose. To us, a winner is one who responds authentically by being credible, trustworthy, responsive, and genuine, both as an individual and as a member of a society.
Winners do not dedicated their lives to a concept of what they imagine they should be; rather, they are themselves and as such do not use their energy putting on a performance, maintaining pretence and manipulating others. They are aware that there is a difference between being loving and ACTing loving, between being stupid and ACTing stupid, between being knowledgeable and ACTing knowledgeable. Winners do not need to hide behind a mask.
Winners are not afraid to do their own thinking and to use their own knowledge. They can separate facts from opinions and don’t pretend to have all the answers. They listen to others, evaluate what they say, but come to their own conclusions. Although winners can admire and respect other people, they are not totally defined, demolished, bound, or awed by them.
Winners do not play “helpless”， nor do they play the blaming game. Instead, they assume responsibility for their own lives. They don’t give others a false authority over them. Winners are their own bosses and know it.
A winner’s timing is right. Winners respond appropriately to the situation. Their responses are related to the message sent and preserve the significance, worth, well-being, and dignity of the people involved. Winners know that for everything there is a season and for every activity a time.
Although winners can freely enjoy themselves, they can also postpone enjoyment, can discipline themselves in the present to enhance their enjoyment in the future. Winners are not afraid to go after what he wants, but they do so in proper ways. Winners do not get their security by controlling others. They do not set themselves up to lose.
A winner cares about the world and its peoples. A winner is not isolated from the general problems of society, but is concerned, compassionate, and committed to improving the quality of life. Even in the face of national and international adversity, a winner’s self-image is not one of a powerless individual. A winner works to make the world a better place.

生而為贏
人皆生而為新，為前所未有之所存在；人皆生而能贏。人皆有其特立獨(dú)行之方式去審視，聆聽，觸摸，品味及思考，因而都具備獨(dú)特潛質(zhì)-能力和局限。人皆能舉足輕重，思慮明達(dá)，洞察秋毫，富有創(chuàng)意，成就功業(yè)。
“成者”與“敗者”含義頗多。談及成者我們并非指令他人失意之人。對(duì)我們而言，成者必為人守信，值得信賴，有求必應(yīng)，態(tài)度誠(chéng)懇，或?yàn)閭€(gè)人，或?yàn)樯鐣?huì)一員皆能以真誠(chéng)回應(yīng)他人。
成者行事并不拘泥于某種信條，即便是他們認(rèn)為應(yīng)為其奉獻(xiàn)一生的理念；而是本色行事，所以并不把精力用來(lái)表演，保持偽裝或操控他人。他們明了愛與裝家，愚蠢與裝傻，博學(xué)與賣弄之間迥然有別。成者無(wú)須藏于面具之后。
成者敢于利用所學(xué)，獨(dú)立思考，區(qū)分事實(shí)與觀點(diǎn)，且并不佯裝通曉所有答案。他們傾聽，權(quán)衡他人意見，但能得出自己的結(jié)論。盡管他們尊重，敬佩他們，但并不為他們所局限，所*，所束縛，也不對(duì)他人敬若神靈。
成者既不佯裝“無(wú)助”，亦不抱怨他人。相反，他們對(duì)人生總是獨(dú)擔(dān)責(zé)任，也不以權(quán)威姿態(tài)凌駕他人之上。他們主宰自己，而且能意識(shí)到這點(diǎn)。
成者善于審時(shí)度勢(shì)，隨機(jī)應(yīng)變。他們對(duì)所接受的信息做出回應(yīng)，維護(hù)當(dāng)事人的利益，康樂和尊嚴(yán)。成者深知成一事要看好時(shí)節(jié)，行一事要把握時(shí)機(jī)。
盡管成者可以自由享樂，但他更知如何推遲享樂，適時(shí)自律，以期將來(lái)樂趣更盛。成者并不忌憚追求所想，但取之有道，也并不靠控制他們而獲取安然之感。他們總是使自己立于不敗。
成者心憂天下，并不孤立塵世弊病之外，而是置身事內(nèi)，滿腔熱情，致力于改善民生。即使面對(duì)民族，國(guó)家之危亡，成者亦非無(wú)力回天之個(gè)體。他總是努力令世界更好。
