双语：10分钟内发现你的人生目标

　　This article will show you how to discoveryour life’s purposein the next 10 minutes, but let me begin by convincing you that you have a purpose. It was Mike Murdock who said, “Everything created solves a problem.” Your eyes see; your ears hear; your nose smells.
　　这篇文章将告诉你如何在10分钟内发现你的人生目标。但是首先，我想让你相信，你是为了某个目标而存在的。麦克-默多克说过，“任何创造出来的东西都是为了解决一个问题。”你的眼睛解决了看的问题，你的耳朵解决了听的问题，你的鼻子解决了闻的问题。

　　Everything Created Solves a Problem
　　任何创造出来的东西都是为了解决一个问题

　　There’s a specific problem that you were created to solve, and you will only succeed if you discover that problem and solve it. Finding this problem is discovering your purpose, solving this problem is accomplishingyour purpose.
　　你的存在一定是为了解决某个特定的问题。而只有当你发现了这个问题，并解决了这个问题，你才会获得成功。发现这个问题的方法就是发现你的人生目标，解决这个问题的方法就是完成你的人生目标。

　　How do you discover the problem you were created to solve?
　　如何发现自己要解决的问题是什么呢？

　　I’m glad you asked; I would like to show you! I want you to answer the questions below. These questions are “sign post”on the path to discovering your purpose today.
　　我很高兴你能这么问。我来告诉你要如何做！我希望你回答下面的这些问题。这些问题是你在今天发现自己人生目标的旅途上的“标杆”。

　　1. What do you love to do? I’ve noticed that people who are successful, do things they love to do. Tiger Woods loves to play golf, Donald Trump loves real estate, Tony Robbins loves to motivate. Your purpose is related to what you love to do. Write down the activities that you love. Maybe you love to write, maybe you love to talk, maybe you love reading, maybe you love exercising, maybe you love listening to others, maybe you love playing sports, maybe you love selling things. Whatever you love, write it down. Write down as many things as you love.
　　1.你喜欢做什么？我发现成功人士都做着自己喜欢做的事。老虎伍兹喜欢打高尔夫，唐纳德-特朗普喜欢房地产，托尼-罗宾斯喜欢激励别人。你的目标与你喜欢做的事有关。把你喜欢的活动写下来，也许你喜欢写作，喜欢聊天，喜欢阅读，喜欢练习，喜欢聆听，喜欢运动，喜欢销售。无论你喜欢做什么，把它写下来，越多越好。

　　2. What do you notice?A hairdresser notices someone’s hair is out of place, a designer notices a problem with your outfit, a mechanichears something wrong with the car, a singer notices when someone’s voice is out of pitch, a speaker notices a boring speech. What do you notice? What grabs your attention? Is it relationships, cars, people? Whatever it is, write it down.
　　2.我注意到了什么？发型师会注意到别人的发型不合适，设计师会注意到你的外套有问题，机械师会听出车子有毛病，歌手会注意到有没有走音，演讲者会注意到讲话无不无聊。你会注意什么呢？什么会吸引你的注意力呢？人际关系？车子？还是人？无论是什么，写下来。

　　3. What would you do for free? What do you love to learn about? What do you love to talk about? What would you regret never trying? Is it cooking, sports, teaching…write down the answers to these questions.
　　3.什么事你会免费去做？什么东西你会乐意去学习？你喜欢讨论什么话题？什么事情如果不去尝试就会后悔？是烹饪、运动、教学......把这些问题的答案写下来。

　　4. If I was able to look in your library, what would I find?If I found 200 books on “real estate,” then maybe that’s your passion, if I found 300 car magazines, then you should probably be doing something related to cars.…if you have a library, write down the types of books we would find in your library, or the kinds of books that you wish were in your library.
　　4.如果我到你的个人藏书室去看看，我会看到些什么？如果我看到200本关于“房地产”的书，那么也许这就是你的兴趣所在；如果我找到300本汽车杂志，那么你也许应该做一些与汽车相关的事情。如果你有自己的藏书室的话，把别人能发现的书的种类写下来，或者你希望在书房里放些什么书。

　　5. What sparks your creativity? What do you find easy? What are you good at? What makes you happy?Is it painting, designing, building, speaking, writing; think about it, then write it down.
　　5.什么会激发你的创造力？什么让你觉得很容易？什么是你擅长的？什么能让你感到快乐？是绘画、设计、建筑、演讲、写作吗？好好想一想，把答案写下来。

　　Take a moment and reviewthe answers to the questions you’ve just answered. What are some commonalities?
　　花一点时间看看自己写下的答案。有没有什么共同点？

　　Think about some ways that individuals with these specific talents and passions could be successful….Now, take the next two to five minutes and write down as many career, job or business opportunities that someone with your passions would pursue. When you’re done with the list, take a moment to review it.
　　想想那些拥有特定的天赋和热情的人是如何成功的。现在，再花2-5分钟时间，尽可能多地写下与你类似的人可以去尝试的任何一个职业、工作或创业机会。如果这些问题都回答好了，那就再回顾一下。

　　Finally, the moment we’ve all been waiting for, circle the item on the list that you feel the most passionate about, the one that seems the most enticing to you, the one that you could see yourself doing forever, the one that deep down inside you believe you can do, the one that you would regret never trying. Circle it now.
　　最后，万众期待的时刻终于来了。在你的答题纸上，用圆圈把你最感兴趣、你最喜欢、你最想要去做、如果不去做就会后悔一辈子的项目一一标出来。

　　Congratulations, you’ve just discovered your purpose!
　　恭喜你，你已经找到了你的人生目标！

　　Note: You may feel equallypassionate about one or two items, and that’s ok.
　　注：你也可以对一个或两个同样感兴趣，这也是可以的。
