「功夫之王」李小龍的16堂勵志課

Why Listen To Bruce Lee’s Life Lessons?

爲何要聽李小龍的勵志課呢？

If you’re a martial artist, then it’s pretty obvious that Bruce Lee is a person that is worth modeling. The level to which he developed both his body and his mind in the pursuit of martial arts was simply incredible.

若是你是一個武術家，那麼，天然而然李小龍則是一位值得效仿的楷模。他追求武術境界的身心歷練水平簡直是使人難以置信。

However, it’s often overlooked just how much he accomplished in his short life. He constantly battled against racial stereotypes in developing his movie career, and his success in this area lead him to be regarded as one of the most influential martial artists of our time. He started out with huge goals in life and achieved so much that he definitely has some motivational life lessons we can learn from.

不過在他短暫的生命中，他取得的成就每每被忽略了。在發展本身的電影職業生涯中，他一直與種族偏見抗爭，且他在這個領域的成功足以讓他成爲對咱們當今的武術藝術家最有影響力的人物之一。他的人生目標起點很高，取得的成就很大，他的人生勵志課必定值得咱們學習借鑑。

 

Lesson 1:Life Purpose

第1堂課：生活目標

The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering.

不朽人生關鍵在於過一種值得讓人記住的人生。

You only have one life in this body so make the most of it by creating something that adds value to those around you.

僅此一輩子而已，你須要盡力而爲創造點什麼，爲你身邊的人的生活增長些價值。

 

Lesson 2 : Limits

第2堂課：限制條件

If you always put limit on everything you do, physical or anything else. It will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.

若是你給每件事情都設了限，不管是有形的仍是無形的，它都會融進你的工做和生活。沒有極限，只有停滯不前，而你千萬別停滯不前，你必須超越和突破。

Ever since I was a child I have had this instinctive urge for expansion and growth. To me, the function and duty of a quality human being is the sincere and honest development of one’s potential.

當我仍是個孩子的時候，我就本能的渴求發展和成長，對我來講，一我的高品質的人生的做用和職責就是真正開發本身的潛能。

You will only grow to the limits that you place on yourself (and let others place on you). To truly reach your potential you must forget limits and realize you will never reach your full potential in this lifetime.

你給本身設限(或讓別人爲你設限)你只能到達設限點的高度而已。要真正發揮你的潛能，你必須拋開條條框框的束縛限制，不然今生你將永遠不會認爲本身會發掘出本身的所有潛能。

 

Lesson 3 : Happiness

第3堂課：幸福快樂

Be happy, but never satisfied.

要幸福快樂，卻不知足於此。

Allow yourself to be happy now and don’t wait until you’ve reached some arbitrary goal. However, remember that everything in life is either growing or dying, so choose which one you prefer for your life.

如今就讓本身幸福快樂起來，不要等到你達到隨便某個目標時才讓本身幸福快樂。不過請記住：人生只有生死兩個狀態，因此，選擇本身比較喜歡的生活狀態。

 

Lesson 4 : Self Image

第4堂課：自我形象

I’m not in this world to live up to your expectations and you’re not in this world to live up to mine.

我活着不是爲了知足你的指望，就像你也不是由於個人指望而活着同樣。

As you think, so shall you become.

你想成爲何樣的人，就真的會成爲那樣的人。

You define yourself–no one else. So when you create an incredible self image for yourself you will naturally grow into your own amazing expectations.

本身明確本身的形象，而不是讓別人來定義你的形象。因此在打造一個了不得的自我形象過程當中，你天然會成長爲讓本身都出乎意料的形象。

 

Lesson 5 : Goals

第5堂課：設定目標

A goal is not always meant to be reached, it often serves simply as something to aim at.

目標，不必定老是要達到，目標每每只是用來幫助你瞄準方向。

Any goal can be reached when given enough time. So let go and just start moving in the right direction.

只要時間充裕任何目標均可以達到。因此，放開手開始朝着正確的方向前進。

 

Lesson 6 : Learning

第6堂課：不斷學習

A wise man can learn more from a foolish question than a fool can learn from a wise answer.

一個聰明人，從愚蠢的問題上學到的東西要比一個傻瓜在一個聰明的答案上學到的要多。

Take no thought of who is right or wrong or who is better than. Be not for or against.

不想誰對誰錯，誰好過誰，不支持，也不反對。

Always be open to the lessons around you no matter where they come from. Everything in life can teach you something if you are open to receiving the lesson.

堅持參加身邊舉辦的這類課程。若是你樂意接受這類課程的培訓，生活中的一切都能教你東西。

 

Lesson 7 : Action

第7堂課：付諸行動

Knowing is not enough, we must apply. Willing is not enough, we must do.

光是知道是不夠的，必須加以運用。光是但願是不夠的，非去作不可。

If you spend too much time thinking about a thing, you’ll never get it done.

若是你花費太長時間去想一件事，那你永遠不會完成它。

Knowledge will give you power, but character respect.

知識會帶給你力量，但人品會帶給你尊重。

There are plenty of people in this world who know what they have to do to get what they want. The few that succeed are those who develop a character of constant and deliberate action.

世上不少人都瞭解本身該作什麼本身想要什麼。培養堅持不懈的性格經深思熟慮並付諸行動才能得以成功。

 

Lesson 8 : Focus

第8堂課：術業專攻

I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.

我不怕一次踢腿10000次的人，但我怕把一個踢腿動做練了10000次的人。

There are many paths you can follow to reach your destination. However, you’ll never reach the end if you keep changing paths along the way.

到達目的地的途徑有多種。可是，若是你沿途不斷變換道路的話是永遠不會到達終點的。

 

Lesson 9 : Time

第9堂課：珍惜時間

If you love life, don’t waste time, for time is what life is made up of.

若你熱愛生命，就不要浪費時間，由於生命是由時間構成的。

We all start each day with 24 hours in the bank; the difference is what we do with it.

咱們每人天天都在銀行存了24小時：區別在於咱們用這24小時作什麼。

 

Lesson 10 ： Failure

第10堂課：失敗受挫

Don’t fear failure. — Not failure, but low aim, is the crime. In great attempts it is glorious even to fail.

不要怕失敗受挫。失敗不是罪過目標過低纔是罪過。大膽嘗試雖敗猶榮。

Failure is a natural part of the learning process for anything we do. No parent has ever watched their child fall while trying to take their first steps and said, 「well, I guess they’re not a walker.」 So why would you do this to yourself?

失敗是咱們學習作任何事情的過程當中的一個天然組成部分。全天下父母看着本身的孩子試着邁出第一步時都不會說：「嗯，我估計這孩子不會走路。」 那麼你爲何要這樣對本身呢？

 

Lesson 11 ： Perseverance

第11堂課：堅持不懈

Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one.

不要祈求過一種輕鬆的生活，要祈求賜予你忍受困難日子的力量。

You are always going to have problems and challenges in your life. Success in any area is simply learning how to overcome bigger and bigger challenges.

生活中總有各類問題和挑戰。在任何領域的成功都只不過是學着如何克服更大的挑戰而已。

 

Lesson 12 ： Flexibility And Adaptability

第12堂課：靈活性&適應性

Be like water making its way through cracks. Do not be assertive, but adjust to the object, and you shall find a way around or through it. If nothing within you stays rigid, outward things will disclose themselves.

水滴石穿。不要專斷專行，要適應目標對象，有目標有對象就會找到方法。若是內在不夠堅決，外在會表露無遺。

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

放空你的思想，透明的、無定形的、像水同樣，若是你將水放入杯子，它就變成杯子的形狀;你將水放入瓶子，它就變成瓶子的形狀;你把水放入茶杯中，它就變成茶杯的形狀;水能夠柔軟的流動，也能夠堅硬的凝結，像水同樣吧，個人朋友。

Become flexible and adaptable in your daily life and problems will roll off your shoulders. Tension is only created when results do not met our expectations or perception of how the world should be.

平常生活中變得有靈活性和適應性，面臨問題才能迎刃而解。只有咱們對這個世界的指望未實現時，才產生了壓力。

 

Lesson 13 ： Simplification

第13堂課：簡單化

It’s not the daily increase but daily decrease. Hack away at the unessential.

不是一每天的增長而是要一每天的減小，減去那些沒必要要的東西。

Adapt what is useful, reject what is useless, and add what is specifically your own.

要適應環境，拒絕無用的，再加上你本身的特別之處。

When you clear your life and mind of the unessential then amazing things start to happen. Be ruthless in asking, "does this serve my greater life purpose?"

明確你的生活和思想上的重要目標，那麼神奇的事情就會出現。反問本身：「這是否是我人生的一大目標？」

 

Lesson 14 : Relationships

第14堂課：人際關係

To know oneself is to study oneself in action with another person.

想要了解一我的就要去研究這我的與那我的的行爲差異。

Let go of the behaviors and actions of others as you can never change someone else. Instead look at how you interact (and react) with others, as this is a reflection of your own beliefs.

由他去吧！你沒法改變別人的作法。而要看你如何影響他人，這纔是本身的信仰的真實反映。

 

Lesson 15 : Service

第15堂課：服務精神

Real living is living for others.

爲別人活着纔是真正的活着。

Realize that anything you want in life can be obtained by helping others get what they want.

認識到這樣一個道理：生活中你想要的東西均可以經過幫助別人來獲得本身想要的東西。

Lesson 16 : Live In The Moment

第16堂課： 活在當下

Take things as they are. Punch when you have to punch. Kick when you have to kick.

處之泰然。當出拳則出拳;當踢腿則踢腿。

Always focus your attention on the present moment. Your past does not determine your future–that comes from what you do in this exact moment.

一直把注意力集中在當下。你的過去並不決定你的將來，關鍵在於你當下在作什麼。
