注重欢乐：为快乐而做-2

( To continue)

Instead ---
 
Focus on Learning. Instead of making a goal to achieve more in your job, decide instead to read and learn how to do one new thing each week. 

Focus on Time. Schedule your time to include what's important to you, like reading time, or exercise time, or family time, or learning time. 

Focus on the Why. Instead of just forcing yourself to mop the kitchen floor, tap into the higher goal that mopping the kitchen floor supports (having a clean and healthy home). 

How does that feel? Not bad, huh! If you focus on the pleasure that a desire gives you, you'll find it easier to put in the work that it takes. (One author gives the example of giving blood --- while the experience itself may be less than pleasant, the joy comes in knowing "why" you're doing it). 

And I absolutely guarantee that you will achieve more, maintain your efforts, and have a much better journey along the way. 

Over the next 12 months, instead of focusing on the effort, FOCUS ON THE JOY. Focus on the people and things that are most important to you. Focus on the pleasure you get out of moving towards your goals. Focus on the process of creating something, not what results you expect. 

Invest in yourself more than you ever thought was allowed. Not only will you reap rewards, but those around you will benefit more than you ever believed. ( finished)

　　中文：

　　（续）相反——
 
　　注重学习。不要为自己的工作定一个目标，以取得更多的成绩，而是下决心每周读书或者学会做一件新的事情。

　　注重时间。把一些重要的事情安排到你的日程中，例如读书时间、锻炼时间、与家人团聚的时间，或者学习时间。

　　注重原因。不要强迫自己去拖厨房的地板，选择更高的目标（拥有一个清洁健康的家庭）。

　　你觉得怎么样？不错吧？哈哈！如果你注重自己所期望的欢乐，你会发现深入工作中很容易。（一位作家举了献血的例子——体验本身可能不是那么有趣，快乐源于清楚自己这么做的原因）。

　　我绝对敢保证你会得到更多，继续努力，你会拥有更好的经历。

　　来年的12个月，不要只注重苦干了，要注重欢乐。注重对你来说最重要的人和事物。注重你在取得目标的过程中所得到的欢乐。注重创造事物的过程，而不是你期望得到的结果。

　　赋予自己比所期望的更多，不但你能收到回报，而且超出你的想象，连你周围的人也会受益。（完）
