Just For Today
就為了今天
Just for today
I will try to live through this day only
and not tackle
my whole life problem at once.
就為了今天
我將盡力只度過今天
而不立刻去解決終身的問題
I can do something for twelve hours
that would appall me
if I had to keep it up for a lifetime.
對一件令我沮喪而又必須堅持一輩子的事
我只能堅持十二個小時
Just for today I will be happy.
This assumes to be true
what Abraham Lincoln said,
that "Most folks are as happy
as they make up their minds to be."
就為了今天叹哭，我會很快樂
亞伯拉罕-林肯說過
“大多數(shù)人都是決定想怎么高興就怎么高興◎卿蹋”
這已經(jīng)被認(rèn)為是真理
Just for today
I will adjust myself to what is,
and not try to adjust everything
to my own desires.
I will take my "luck" as it comes.
就為了今天阿浓，
我會做自我調(diào)整適應(yīng)事物本來的面目
而不是想方設(shè)法使每一件事滿足自己的欲望
當(dāng)機(jī)會來臨的時候我會抓住它
Just for today
I will try to strengthen my mind.
I will study.
I will learn something useful.
I will not be a mental loafer.
I will read something
that requires effort,thought
and concentration.
就為了今天恳蹲，我會盡力心強(qiáng)志堅
我會學(xué)習(xí)豆赏，學(xué)一些有用的東西
我不會做一個精神上的流浪漢
我會讀一些需要努力芳悲、思考
和注意力集中的東西
Just for today
I will exercise my soul in three ways.
I will do somebody a good turn
and not get found out:
If anybody knows of it,
it will not count.
就為了今天
我會用三種方法來磨煉我的靈魂
我會做對某人有利的事
但不能被發(fā)現(xiàn)
若有人發(fā)現(xiàn)了就不算數(shù)
I will do at least two things
I don‘t want to do—
just for exercise.
我將會做至少兩件
我不愿做的事情——
只為了磨練
I will not show anyone
that my feelings are hurt:
they may be hurt,
but today I will not show it.
我不會讓任何人感到我的感情受到了傷害：
它們可能受到了傷害
但今天我不想表現(xiàn)出來
Just for today I will be agreeable.
I will look as well as I can,
dress becomingly, talk low,
act courteously, criticize not one bit,
and try not to improve
or regulate anybody but myself.
就為了今天榛丢，我會過得很愜意
看起來我達(dá)到了最佳狀態(tài)
穿著得體枪芒、講話謙虛
行為禮貌彻况、一點不吹毛求疵
盡量改進(jìn)和調(diào)節(jié)自己而不是別人
Just for today I will have a program,
I may not follow it exactly,
but I will have it.

我會制定一個計劃
我也許不會嚴(yán)格地遵守它
但我一定要有計劃

倉促行事和優(yōu)柔寡斷
Just for today
I will have a quiet half hour
all by myself and relax.

to enjoy what is beautiful,
and to believe
that as I give to the world,
so the world will give to me.

并且相信我給予世界的
世界也會給予我
