011 You Don't Know How Strong You Are

Tough times separate those who give up and those who keep going. Tough times show what heart is really inside. Tough times show what courage is really inside. It's in our toughest moments that we see who people really are. Who are you? "You don't know how strong you are, until being strong is your only choice." Bob Marley said this. And it is so true! You don't even know how strong you are! You have inside you something so great, something so deep, something so strong. Do find that strength inside you.

艱難的歲月把輕易言棄的人和奮勇向前的人區(qū)分開來。困苦的時(shí)刻揭露了人的內(nèi)心，展現(xiàn)了人的勇氣。正是在最艱苦的時(shí)候，我們才能看清世人。你是誰？在堅(jiān)強(qiáng)是你唯一的選擇時(shí)，你才知道自己有多堅(jiān)強(qiáng)。這是Bod Marley說的，說得對(duì)極了！你甚至根本不知道自己到底有多強(qiáng)大！在你的內(nèi)心深處，你擁有很偉大、很深刻、很堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的品質(zhì)。你一定要找到這內(nèi)在的力量。

Whatever you are going through, you can get through it. You will get through it, and it will make you stronger. It will make you wiser and it will make you better. That is what mentally tough people do. They do not allow anything to break them. They force hard times to make them. They learn lessons. They see the blessings. And most importantly they keep going. What lessons can you learn? What blessings can you take from this? If you asked me what is the most important thing one can do in overcoming anything. In one word I will give it to you. Purpose.

無論你正在經(jīng)歷什么，你都能渡過難關(guān)。你會(huì)戰(zhàn)勝困難，而且這會(huì)使你更加堅(jiān)強(qiáng)。它會(huì)使你更睿智、更優(yōu)秀。內(nèi)心強(qiáng)大的人會(huì)怎么做？他們不會(huì)讓任何事打敗自己，他們用困難來塑造自己，他們吸取經(jīng)驗(yàn)，他們看見了困難中那寶貴的財(cái)富。最重要的是，他們永不放棄。你學(xué)到了什么經(jīng)驗(yàn)？你從中得到了什么樣的收獲？如果你問我，對(duì)于一個(gè)人而言，要克服困難，最重要是什么？我只會(huì)告訴你一個(gè)詞：目標(biāo)。

If you know your purpose, if you know why you do what you do, if you know why you must fight, then you will fight. You will fight for your purpose. You will fight for your love. You will fight for that one person. You will fight for your family, for your friends. You will fight for your legacy. You will fight because you know you don't want future generations to give up, because you did. You want them to keep going because you did. You want them to say I will fight because I saw you fight. I will stay strong because you stood strong. That is mental toughness!

如果你知道自己的目標(biāo)，如果你知道你為什么做你所做的事，如果你知道自己為什么必須奮斗，那么，你就會(huì)去奮斗。你會(huì)為了你的目標(biāo)而奮斗，為了你的朋友而奮斗，為了你的財(cái)富而奮斗。你會(huì)奮斗，因?yàn)槟忝靼?，你不想因?yàn)樽约旱姆艞壎沟煤笕俗鍪乱舶胪径鴱U。你想讓他們不斷進(jìn)取，因?yàn)槟阕龅搅?。你想讓他們說，我會(huì)奮斗，因?yàn)槲铱匆娏四愕膴^斗；我會(huì)保持堅(jiān)強(qiáng)，因?yàn)槲铱匆娏四愕膱?jiān)強(qiáng)。這就是精神的強(qiáng)大！
