040 You Have To Be Disciplined

It's easy to go through life holding on to things that are weighing us down, guilt, resentment, doubt, worry. The problem is when we allow these things in, they're taking up space for the good things that should be there. Imagine your life is like a container. You were created to be filled with joy, peace, confidence, creativity, but if you allow worry in, it pushes out the peace. There's not space for both. You can't go above 100%. You have a limited amount of room. 

生活中很容易執(zhí)著于那些拖累我們的東西，罪惡感，憤恨，懷疑，煩惱。問題是，當(dāng)我們?cè)试S這些進(jìn)入我們的生活時(shí)，它們占據(jù)了本來屬于好事情的地方。把你的生活想象成一個(gè)容器，你生來就是去容納快樂，平和，自信，創(chuàng)造力的，但如果你允許煩惱進(jìn)入，煩惱就會(huì)把平和推出去。它們無法共存。你不能容納超過自身容量的東西。你只有有限的空間。

If you allow guilt to take up space, that's space that you don't have for the confidence you need. And the reason some people don't enjoy their lives, is because their container, their heart is contaminated with so many things. They have 10% worried, stressed out over their job, 12% bitterness, mad at their neighbor, 20% guilt, beating themselves up for past mistakes, 9% jealousy, their co-worker is more beautiful. They don't realize 70% of their container is negative. They wonder why they don't have joy, creativity, passion, they only have room for 30% of what they should have. 

如果你允許罪惡感進(jìn)入，你的自信心就會(huì)被擠出去。而有些人不能享受生活的原因，就是因?yàn)樗麄兊娜萜?，他們的心靈被太多事情污染了。他們有10%的對(duì)于工作的煩惱和壓力，12%的對(duì)于鄰居的怨氣和怒火，20%的對(duì)于過去錯(cuò)誤的折磨和罪惡感，9%的對(duì)于同事美麗的嫉妒。他們沒有意識(shí)到它們70%的容器都是負(fù)面的。他們想知道為什么他們沒有快樂，創(chuàng)造力，激情，他們只有30%的空間去容納它們。

And the scripture says give no place to the enemy. It's not just talking about forces of darkness, that means give no place to guilt, give no place to worry, give no place to bitterness. It can't come in and automatically take over. You control what's in your container. You control what you think about, what you choose to allow in, and we all have negative emotions, negative feelings. You have to make the choice, I'm not going to give this jealousy, this bitterness, this anger valuable space and let it poison my life. I'm going to protect what I allow in me.  And every morning when we wake up, we need to empty out anything negative from the day before. Somebody offended you at work, they didn't treat you right, it's easy to let that offense stay.

經(jīng)文中說，不要理會(huì)你的敵人。這不僅是字面的意思，這是指不要把內(nèi)心的空間讓給罪惡感，讓給煩惱，讓給怨氣。它們無法自己進(jìn)來，并占據(jù)空間。你能控制你的容器容納什么。你能控制你的思想，選擇什么可以進(jìn)入你的容器，我們所有人都有負(fù)面的情緒和感受。你必須做出選擇。我不會(huì)把珍貴的空間讓出給嫉妒，怨氣和怒火，并讓它們侵害我的生活。我要有選擇地把一些東西放進(jìn)來。每天早上，我們醒來，我們要把昨日的負(fù)面情緒清空。一些人在工作中冒犯了你，對(duì)你不好，我們很容易受這些問題的困擾。

Feels good to carry around a grudge, but you have to be disciplined, say no I am giving this offense any room. I am not going to let it sour my day. They hurt you once, don't let them continue to hurt you by holding on to the offense. Being offended is not harming them, it's harming you. It's taking up space you need for the good things that move you towards your destiny. Take inventory of what you're giving space to. Life is too short to go through it with negative things holding us down.

帶著怨恨會(huì)輕松一些，但是你必須自我約束，不要給這些冒犯任何空間。我不會(huì)讓這些破壞我的一天。它們傷害了你一次，不要讓他們持續(xù)地傷害你。被觸怒不是傷害他們，而是傷害自己。它占據(jù)了容納好事情的空間。清查一下你的容器吧。生活太短暫了，不能帶著拖累我們的負(fù)面情緒去感受生活。
