I only just recently wrotea blog postrelated to this topic.
關(guān)于這個話題我最近剛寫了一篇博客薛躬。
Here is what average people do: They wake up at 10am, read some news, eat, watch Game of Thrones for 2 hours, eat more junk food, lay on the sofa and stare at their phones for three hours, and then probably watch more TV and sleep. Of course, there will be variations based on one’s social status and geographical locations - I’m largely generalizing, but this is what most average people do on weekends.
大部分平庸的人是這樣做的：他們十點鐘起床，看些新聞驻债，吃飯，看兩個小時的權(quán)利的游戲顽铸，吃很多垃圾食品譬涡。躺在沙發(fā)闪幽，盯著自己的手機大概三個小時，待會兒可能看電視或者睡覺涡匀。不過根據(jù)每個人不同的社會地位和地理環(huán)境稍微有些不同-我大致概括一下盯腌，但是這就是大部分平庸的人周末做的事。
They don’t achieve much. They don’t have goals or plans, and they live everyday without much thought.
他們沒有得到很多渊跋。他們沒有目標(biāo)和計劃腊嗡，他們每天活著卻沒有太多的想法。
This is what I lived like for eighteen years.
我差不多這樣子活了18年
Before college, all I wanted to do was get the guy I liked to notice me, or hang with all my friends and go downtown everyday. I wanted to get in a good university but I wasn’t actually willing to put in any effort. I didn’t actuallywork hardfor anything.
在大學(xué)之前拾酝，我想要的就是讓我喜歡的人注意到我燕少，或者是和朋友在一起天天逛街。我想去一所好的大學(xué)蒿囤，自己卻不想付出努力客们。對任何事我都沒有認(rèn)真做。
You see the trend? I wascomfortable.
你看到這個趨勢了嗎材诽？我很舒服底挫。
And that’s where I got it wrong.I indulged in pleasure, not happiness.I let myself do whatever I wantedin the moment,without actually putting myself under pressure for a better future.
In high school, I binge watchedLast Man on Earthinstead of studying for my bio exam. In college, I ate chocolate and scrolled my Instagram for forty minutes instead of getting a head start on my business project.
Mother of God, what was I doing?
這就是我錯了。我沉溺于快樂脸侥，不幸福建邓。我讓自己做當(dāng)下想做的任何事，沒有把自己放在為了更美好未來的壓力之下睁枕。高中的時候官边，我放縱自己看地球上的最后一個男人，而不是準(zhǔn)備自己的生物考試外遇。大學(xué)的時候注簿，我邊吃巧克力邊刷Instagram四十分鐘，而不是開始自己的商業(yè)項目跳仿。
If you want to beaboveaverage, you need to get used to beinguncomfortable.You need to get used to pain, to discomfort, to prolonged hours of just sitting there and forcing yourself to get through one more page of that fucking essay, one more lesson on code academy.
如果你想不平庸诡渴，你需要變得不舒適。你需要習(xí)慣痛苦菲语，習(xí)慣不舒適妄辩，長時間坐在那里強迫自己再多看一頁文章，再多看一節(jié)編程的課程谨究。
And in the age of distractions, it’s even harder. Messages, notifications, the allure ofmultiplesocial media accounts you gotta keep up to, piled with schoolwork and activities you gotta attend - it’s horror.
在容易分心的年恩袱，這非常的困難。信息胶哲，通知畔塔，多重社交賬戶的誘惑，這些你都需要關(guān)心著，同時還有堆積著的學(xué)校的作業(yè)和活動——簡直可怕
But those aren’t real excuses.Everyonegoes through them. At the end of the day when you evaluate yourself, whether that’s when you graduate or when you die, you’ll see that nothing is excusable.
但是這些都不是理由澈吨。每個人都要經(jīng)歷這些把敢。當(dāng)一天結(jié)束你評估自己時，或者是當(dāng)你畢業(yè)時谅辣，或者當(dāng)你臨死前修赞，你就會明白沒有什么是可以原諒的。
For me, my excuse for not working hard in high school was that “my mom forced me too much.” My mom’s excuse was that her mom "turned the TV on too loud so [she] couldn’t focus.”
對于我來說桑阶，我高中不努力的理由是“我媽把我逼得太狠了柏副。”我媽的理由是她媽媽“電視開的太響了以至于她不能專心蚣录「钤瘢”
Bull fucking shit.
（這句你們懂就好了，我就不翻了）
You can lie to others but stop lying to yourself.The rest of this break, I want to get ahead on building traction for my blog as much as possible, and figure out what I want to do in the tech industry in the future.
你騙得了別人但是不要再騙自己了萎河。接下來的休息時間荔泳，我想盡可能的提升我的博客，然后想出未來的科技行業(yè)我想做什么虐杯。
If I say I “didn’t have enough time”, or “I was too tired”, then I’m lying to myself. I’m in Beijing for two and a half weeks and I have nothing to do.
如果我說“我沒有足夠的時間”玛歌，或者“我太累了”然后我騙了自己。我在北京兩個半禮拜擎椰，什么也沒做成支子。
So there. Fuck it. Fuck all the lies you keep telling yourself.If you want to be above average, then you have to be willing to drip blood and sweat for whatever you want to achieve- otherwise, you’ll just be left behind. A mere speck waiting to be extinguished by the trailing dust of the above-average.
所以啊，不要再對自己撒謊了达舒。如果你想不再平庸译荞，那你不得不為你想得到的東西流血流汗。否則休弃，你只會被落在后面。最終一粒小斑點被高于平均水平的塵埃所滅圈膏。
