奥巴马写给女儿的信：停止在做的17件事

　　7 – Stop Complaining

　　停止抱怨

　
　We all have problems, and sometimes we need to vent to someone. That’s
acceptable, but pay attention to how often you’re venting. We all love
helping our friends and family, but when all you get from someone is
negativity, it’s easier to cut them off than help, especially if they’re
 always complaining about the same things.

　　我们都有麻烦事，有时候总想跟别人倾诉。这可以理解，但要注意你吐槽的频率。我们都喜欢帮助朋友和家人，但如果从那个人身上我只能感知到负能量，那么还是离得越远越好吧，尤其是当他们在反复抱怨同一件事的时候。

　　8 – Stop Being Selfish

　　别再那么自私

　
　If you only think about yourself, you’ll soon find yourself by
yourself. Stop for a minute and think about how your actions affect
other people – did you take the last cup of coffee from the break room?
Refill it! Do you live with others? Don’t drink out the milk carton. We
share this world 100% of the time, so every action you take can affect
other people.

　　如果你只考虑你自己，那么很快你会发现身边只剩下你自己。停一分钟想想你的行为会给别人带来什么影响吧——你是不是从休息室拿了最后一杯咖啡？再倒满呀！你是不是和别人合租？不要喝光所有的牛奶，这个世界是一个完全由大家分享的世界，你所做的每件事都会影响到别人。

　　9 – Stop Wasting Time

　　别再浪费时间

　
　I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: time is the most valuable
resource we have. Don’t waste your time on unproductive things. If you
want to explore the world’s dark corners, that’s great. I still
associate with people who have not-so-kosher careers, but I don’t hang
out with those people at the expense of my own short- and long-term
goals.

　　虽然之前说过了，但我还想再说一遍：时间是我们拥有的最宝贵的资源，不要把时间浪费在没有意义的事情上面，如果你想探索这个世界的黑暗角落，很好。我也认识一些没有固定工作的一些自由职业者，但我不会以牺牲自己的短期长期目标为代价和他们出去玩乐。
