  Self-disciplined people are not all outstanding, but nearly all outstanding
people are self-disciplined people. Self-discipline is pivotal to happiness and
usefulness. It is the master of all the virtues, and has its root in
self-respect.
          自律的人不一定都优秀,但优秀的人基本都是自律的。自律是获取幸福和成就事业不可或缺的能力。它根植于自尊,掌控着所有美德。
          Self-discipline requires self-knowledge and an accurate assessment of your
current abilities.
          自律要求自我认识以及对自己能力的正确评估。
          First, self-knowledge is a preface to self-control. A fair amount of
self-examination is good; too much leads to morbidness; too little conducts to
careless and hasty action.
          首先,要做到自知,才能做到自律。平常应适当地自我反省;需要注意的是,反省过多会导致精神病态,过少则会让我们粗心大意、草率行事。
          Second, the man who would succeed in any great undertaking must hold all
his faculties under perfect control; they must be disciplined and drilled until
they quickly and cheerfully obey the will.
          其次,想在事业上取得成功,就必须很好地把握自己的才能;他们必须受到良好的教育和训练,这样才能愉悦地迅速地服从自身的意愿。
          We all know that self-discipline is in fact self-management. If you want to
get slim, you need to manage your appetite. If you want to succeed, you need to
manage your heart. Think of your mind as a reservoir in which you have been
storing up all the potential power. You will now learn to release those power in
precise quantities and specific directions. This is the essence of
self-discipline.
          自律,其实就是自我管理。想要减肥,就得把自己的嘴巴管住。想要成功,就得把自己的心管住。把你的心智想象成是一座贮存你潜在能力的贮存库,你现在应学习从库中释放适当数量的力量,并将它导引到正确方向,这就是自律的本质。
          So set your goal and write down your reasons for them. Establish a list for
your daily work and life, and execute them out without mercy. This is not
sacrificing your freedom. This is freedom.
          定个目标,并写下原因吧。每天为自己的工作和生活列出一个清单,然后毫不留情地执行它。这并不是牺牲自由,这恰恰就是自由。
          Only in self-discipline can you stop being a slave of all the trivial
things in your life. Only in self-discipline can you achieve the success you
desire.
          只有在自律当中,你才能不成为生活中琐碎的奴隶。只有在自律中,你才能走向你所渴望的成功。
