Why Listen To Bruce Lee’s Life Lessons?

為什么要聽李小龍的勵志課呢?

If you’re a martial artist, then it’s pretty obvious that Bruce Lee is a person that is worth modeling. The level to which he developed both his body and his mind in the pursuit of martial arts was simply incredible。

如果你是一個武術(shù)家，那么，自然而然李小龍則是一位值得效仿的楷模。他追求武術(shù)境界的身心歷練水平簡直是令人難以置信。

However, it’s often overlooked just how much he accomplished in his short life. He constantly battled against racial stereotypes in developing his movie career, and his success in this area lead him to be regarded as one of the most influential martial artists of our time. He started out with huge goals in life and achieved so much that he definitely has some motivational life lessons we can learn from。

不過在他短暫的生命中，他取得的成就往往被忽略了。在發(fā)展自己的電影職業(yè)生涯中，他一直與種族偏見抗?fàn)帲宜谶@個領(lǐng)域的成功足球讓他成為對我們當(dāng)今的武術(shù)藝術(shù)家最有影響力的人物之一。他的人生目標(biāo)起點(diǎn)很高，取得的成就很大，他的人生勵志課一定值得我們學(xué)習(xí)借鑒。

Lesson #1 – Life Purpose

第1堂課：生活目標(biāo)

“The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering。”

“不朽人生關(guān)鍵在于過一種值得讓人記住的人生。”

You only have one life in this body so make the most of it by creating something that adds value to those around you。

僅此一生而已，你需要盡力而為創(chuàng)造點(diǎn)什么，為你身邊的人的生活增加些價值。

Lesson #2 – Limits

第2堂課：限制條件

“If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them。”

“如果你給每件事情都設(shè)了限，無論是有形的還是無形的，它都會融進(jìn)你的工作和生活。沒有極限，只有停滯不前，而你千萬別停滯不前，你必須超越和突破。”

“Ever since I was a child I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth. To me, the function and duty of a quality human being is the sincere and honest development of one’s potential。”

“當(dāng)我還是個孩子的時候，我就本能的渴求發(fā)展和成長，對我來說，一個人高品質(zhì)的人生的作用和職責(zé)就是真正開發(fā)自己的潛能。”

You will only grow to the limits that you place on yourself (and let others place on you). To truly reach your potential you must forget limits and realize you will never reach your full potential in this lifetime。

你給自己設(shè)限(或讓別人為你設(shè)限)你只能到達(dá)設(shè)限點(diǎn)的高度而已。要真正發(fā)揮你的潛能，你必須拋開條條框框的束縛限制，否則此生你將永遠(yuǎn)不會認(rèn)為自己會發(fā)掘出自己的全部潛能。

Lesson #3 – Happiness

第3堂課：幸福快樂

“Be happy, but never satisfied。”

“要幸福快樂，卻不滿足于此。”

Allow yourself to be happy now and don’t wait until you’ve reached some arbitrary goal. However, remember that everything in life is either growing or dying, so choose which one you prefer for your life。

現(xiàn)在就讓自己幸?？鞓菲饋?，不要等到你達(dá)到隨便某個目標(biāo)時才讓自己幸福快樂。不過請記?。喝松挥猩纼蓚€狀態(tài)，所以，選擇自己比較喜歡的生活狀態(tài)。

Lesson #4 – Self Image

第4堂課：自我形象

“I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine。”

“我活著不是為了滿足你的期望，就像你也不是因?yàn)槲业钠谕钪粯印?rdquo;

“As you think, so shall you become。”

“你想成為什么樣的人，就真的會成為那樣的人。”

You define yourself–no one else. So when you create an incredible self image for yourself you will naturally grow into your own amazing expectations。

自己明確自己的形象，而不是讓別人來定義你的形象。所以在打造一個了不起的自我形象過程中，你自然會成長為讓自己都出乎意料的形象。

Lesson #5 – Goals

第5堂課：設(shè)定目標(biāo)

“A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at。”

“目標(biāo)，不一定總是要達(dá)到，目標(biāo)往往只是用來幫助你瞄準(zhǔn)方向。”

Any goal can be reached when given enough time. So let go and just start moving in the right direction。

只要時間充裕任何目標(biāo)都可以達(dá)到。所以，放開手開始朝著正確的方向前進(jìn)。

Lesson #6 – Learning

第6堂課：不斷學(xué)習(xí)

“A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer。”

“一個聰明人，從愚蠢的問題上學(xué)到的東西要比一個傻瓜在一個聰明的答案上學(xué)到的要多。”

“Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against。”

“不想誰對誰錯，誰好過誰，不支持，也不反對。”

Always be open to the lessons around you no matter where they come from. Everything in life can teach you something if you are open to receiving the lesson。

堅(jiān)持參加身邊舉辦的這類課程。如果你樂意接受這類課程的培訓(xùn)，生活中的一切都能教你東西。

Lesson #7 – Action

第7堂課：付諸行動

“Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do。”

“光是知道是不夠的，必須加以運(yùn)用。光是希望是不夠的，非去做不可。”

“If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done。”

“如果你花費(fèi)太長時間去想一件事，那你永遠(yuǎn)不會完成它。”

“Knowledge will give you power, but character respect。”

“知識會帶給你力量，但人品會帶給你尊重。”

There are plenty of people in this world who know what they have to do to get what they want. The few that succeed are those who develop a character of constant and deliberate action。

世上很多人都了解自己該做什么自己想要什么。培養(yǎng)堅(jiān)持不懈的性格經(jīng)深思熟慮并付諸行動才能得以成功。

Lesson #8 – Focus

第8堂課：術(shù)業(yè)專攻

“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times。”

“我不怕一次踢腿10000次的人，但我怕把一個踢腿動作練了10000次的人。”

There are many paths you can follow to reach your destination. However, you’ll never reach the end if you keep changing paths along the way。

到達(dá)目的地的途徑有多種。不過，沿途不變換道路是永遠(yuǎn)不會到達(dá)終點(diǎn)的。

“If you love life, don’t waste time, for time is what life is made up of。”

“若你熱愛生命，就不要浪費(fèi)時間，因?yàn)樯怯蓵r間構(gòu)成的。”

We all start each day with 24 hours in the bank; the difference is what we do with it。

我們每人每天都在銀行存了24小時;區(qū)別在于我們用這24小時做什么。

Lesson #10 – Failure

第10堂課：失敗受挫

“Don’t fear failure. — Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts it is glorious even to fail。”

“不要怕失敗受挫。失敗不是罪過目標(biāo)太低才是罪過。大膽嘗試雖敗猶榮。”

Failure is a natural part of the learning process for anything we do. No parent has ever watched their child fall while trying to take their first steps and said, “well, I guess they’re not a walker。” So why would you do this to yourself?

失敗是我們學(xué)習(xí)做任何事情的過程中的一個自然組成部分。全天下父母看著自己的孩子試著邁出第一步時都不會說：“嗯，我估計(jì)這孩子不會走路。” 那么你為什么要這樣對自己呢?

Lesson #11 – Perseverance

Lesson #12 – Flexibility And Adaptability

第12堂課：靈活性&適應(yīng)性

“Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves。

“水滴石穿。不要獨(dú)斷專行，要適應(yīng)目標(biāo)對象，有目標(biāo)有對象就會找到方法。如果內(nèi)在不夠堅(jiān)定，外在會表露無遺。 ”

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend。”

放空你的思想，透明的、無定形的、像水一樣，如果你將水放入杯子，它就變成杯子的形狀;你將水放入瓶子，它就變成瓶子的形狀;你把水放入茶杯中，它就變成茶杯的形狀;水可以柔軟的流動，也可以堅(jiān)硬的凝結(jié)，像水一樣吧，我的朋友。

Become flexible and adaptable in your daily life and problems will roll off your shoulders. Tension is only created when results do not met our expectations or perception of how the world should be。

日常生活中變得有靈活性和適應(yīng)性，面臨問題才能迎刃而解。只有我們對這個世界的期望未實(shí)現(xiàn)時，才產(chǎn)生了壓力。

“It’s not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential。”

“不是一天天的增加而是要一天天的減少，減去那些不必要的東西。”

When you clear your life and mind of the unessential then amazing things start to happen. Be ruthless in asking, “does this serve my greater life purpose?”

明確你的生活和思想上的重要目標(biāo)，那么神奇的事情就會出現(xiàn)。反問自己：“這是不是我人生的一大目標(biāo)?”

Lesson #14 – Relationships

第14堂課：人際關(guān)系

“To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person。”

“想要了解一個人就要去研究這個人與那個人的行為差別。”

Let go of the behaviors and actions of others as you can never change someone else. Instead look at how you interact (and react) with others, as this is a reflection of your own beliefs。

由他去吧!你無法改變別人的做法。而要看你如何影響他人，這才是自己的信仰的真實(shí)反映。

Lesson #15 – Service

第15堂課：服務(wù)精神

“Real living is living for others。”

“為別人活著才是真正的活著。”

Realize that anything you want in life can be obtained by helping others get what they want。

認(rèn)識到這樣一個道理：生活中你想要的東西都可以通過幫助別人來得到自己想要的東西。

Lesson #16 – Live In The Moment

第16堂課： 活在當(dāng)下

“Take things as they are. Punch when you have to punch. Kick when you have to kick。”

“處之泰然。當(dāng)出拳則出拳;當(dāng)踢腿則踢腿。”

Always focus your attention on the present moment. Your past does not determine your future–that comes from what you do in this exact moment。

一直把注意力集中在當(dāng)下。你的過去并不決定你的未來，關(guān)鍵在于你當(dāng)下在做什么。
