Seven Secrets to a Great Life　非凡人生的七大秘訣

·Anonymous·

A great life doesn't happen by accident. A great life is the result of aIIocating your time, energy, thoughts, and hard work towards what you want your life to be.Stop setting yourself up for stress and failure, and start setting up your life to support success and ease.A great life is the result of using the 24/7 you get in a creative and thoughtful way, instead of just what comes next.Customize these“secrets”to fit your own needs and style, and start creating your own great life today！

1.S-Simplify.A great life is the result of simplifying your life.People often misinterpret what simplify means.It's not a way to remove work from your life.When you focus on simplifying your life, you free up energy and time for the work that you enjoy and the purpose for which you are here.In order to create a great life, you will have to make room for it in yours first.

2.E-Effort.A great life is the result of your best effort.Creating a great life requires that you make some adjustments.It may mean reevaluating how you spend your time, or choosing to spend your money in a different way.It may mean looking for new ways to spend your energy that coincide with your particular definition of a great life.Life will reward your best effort.

3.C-Create Priorities.A great life is the result of creating priorities.It's easy to spend your days just responding to the next thing that gets your attention, instead of intentionally using the time, energy and money you have in a way that's important to you.Focus on removing the obstacIes that get in the way of you making sure you are honoring your priorities.

4.R-Reserves.A great life is the result of having reserves-reserves of things, time, space, energy, money.With reserves, you acquire far more than you need-not 6 months living expenses, but 5 years worth；not 15 minutes of free time，1 day.Reserves are important because they reduce the fear of consequences, and that allows you to make decisions based on what you really want instead of what the fear decides for you.

5.E-EIiminate distractions.A great life is the result of eliminating distractions.Up to 75%of your mentaI energy can be tied up in things that are draining and distracting you.Eliminating distractions can be a difficult concept to many people, since they haven't really considered that there is another way to live.Look around at someone's life you admire.What do they do that you would like to incorporate into your own life?Ask them how they did it.Find ways to free up your mental energy for things that are more important to you.

6.T-Thoughts.A great life is the result of controlling your thoughts so that you accept and allow for the possibility that it actually can happen to you！Your belief in the outcome will directly dictate how successful you are.Motivated people have specific goals and look for ways to achieve them.Believing there is a solution to the same old problems you encounter year after year is vitally important to creating a life that you love.

7.S-Start.A great life is the result of starting.There's the old saying everyone's familiar with“a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”In order to even move from the couch to the refrigerator, you have to start.There's no better time to start than today.Don't wait for a raise, or until the kids get older, or the weather is better.Today, right now, is the right day to start to take a step in the direction of your heart's desires.It's what you do TODAY that will make a difference in your life tomorrow.

逸名

非凡的人生不是偶然產(chǎn)生的，它需要你合理分配自己的時間、精力、心思并為實現(xiàn)自己的生活目標而努力。走出憂慮和失敗，全身心地迎接成功和安逸。非凡的人生是利用分分秒秒來創(chuàng)造和思索的結(jié)果而不是坐等。讓我們從今天開始，根據(jù)下面的“秘訣”和自身情況，創(chuàng)建屬于自己的非凡人生吧！

1.化繁為簡。非凡的人生源于簡化你的生活。人們往往誤解了簡化的含義，即不參加工作。當生活真正簡化，你就會有時間和精力從事喜歡的工作，并為之奮斗。創(chuàng)建非凡的人生，首先要有自己的空間。

2.不懈努力。非凡的人生源于個人的艱苦努力。它需要對你的生活做些調(diào)整，它可能需要你重新分配時間，或調(diào)整理財方式；它可能要你尋求新的方法以使你將精力放在你自己所定義的非凡的人生上。有付出就會有回報。

3.分清主次。非凡的人生源于分清主次。人很容易被瑣碎的事所吸引，而不能將時間、精力、金錢放在重要的事上，要集中精力先清除在自己首要解決問題上的絆腳石。

4.有備無患。非凡的人生源于懂得儲備——儲備物品、時間、空間、精力和金錢。有了這些儲備，你所獲得的就會遠遠多于所期望的——你得到的會是五年的生活費，而不是六個月的；你得到的會是一整天的閑暇時間，而不只是十五分鐘。儲備很重要，因為它能減少你的顧慮，還會使你依照自己的目標來做決定而不是被顧慮所支配。

5.專心致志。非凡的人生源于專注。做事三心二意，會耗費一個人75%以上的精力。很多人不知道如何清除雜念，因為他們從未想過換種方式生活。看看周圍那些令你羨慕的人的生活吧，看自己能從他們身上學到些什么？向他們請教，尋求專注的方式，把精力集中到真正重要的事情上。

6.堅定信念。非凡的人生源于控制你的信念。信念會令事情真的發(fā)生，也會直接告訴你，你是多么的成功。有動力的人目標明確，并會想盡一切辦法去實現(xiàn)。生活中會反復遇到很多問題，堅信這些問題終會解決，是創(chuàng)造美好生活的關(guān)鍵。

7.立刻行動。非凡的人生源于行動。有句大家熟悉的古諺語，“千里之行始于足下”，即使是想從沙發(fā)走到冰箱前，也需要親自行動。從今天開始行動吧，不要再找借口，說等漲工資了；等孩子長大了；或者等天氣好了再說吧。從今天開始，去努力實現(xiàn)心中的夢想，這是最好的時機。只有從今天就開始，你的明天才會更好。
