INTRODUCTION
引⾔
Shi Ban Gong Bei is an ancient Chinese saying about accomplishing twice the work in half the time. If you begin anything with the right perspective, you make your life easier. As an eye doctor, I know how important clear physical sight is in my patients’ lives.
「事半功倍」是⼀句中国古⽼的谚语意思是在较短时间内完成双倍⼯作。只要以正确的视⻆开始任何事就能让⽣活变得更轻松。作为⼀位眼科医⽣我深知清晰的视⼒对病⼈⽣活的重要性。
I also know how important clear moral and logical sight can be to people’s lives. Living in tune with the truth of who people are and how the world works can save you untold people are and how the world works can save you untold trouble. Living out of tune with those truths can feel as frustrating as trying to cut a steak with a spoon.
我也明⽩清晰的道德判断⼒与逻辑洞察⼒对⼈的⽣命同样重要。若能与真实的⼈性与世界运作规律同步⽽⾏将能避免⽆数困扰相反地若偏离这些真理便如同试图⽤汤匙切⽜排般令⼈沮丧。
Through my travel, education, and daily work with people, I have gathered the following pearls of wisdom. I offer them to you here in the hope that they will ease your way through life. I hope that using them will lend you the clear spiritual sight that I prize above anything else.
透过我的旅程、学习与⽇常与⼈的互动我整理出以下的智慧珍珠献给你愿它们能助你在⼈⽣路上⾛得更顺畅。我更盼望这些智慧能带给你我最珍视的⸺那份清澈的属灵洞察⼒。

如果你太在意这个⼈是谁他可能会因为⾃尊⼼受到刺激⽽产⽣防备⼼理结果反⽽完全看不到问题的本质。
Therefore, you should focus on the issue instead of the person.

第四⼗三颗珍珠 今天也很重要
Yesterday is what we have done.
昨天是我们已经完成的事。
Tomorrow is what we will do.
明天是我们即将要做的事。
But how about today? Should today merely just serve to remember what we did yesterday and prepare for what we will do tomorrow?
那今天呢难道今天只是为了回顾昨天、预备明天⽽存在的吗
That is not fair! Today has the right to be its own day!
这并不公平今天也有成为“今天” 的权利
Focus on today, stay in the moment, and make the best of right now!
专注于今天活在当下把握此刻
Think about it: the reason that we actually need to constantly remind ourselves as such is because we naturally really don’t do this.

第四⼗五颗珍珠 先确认正确再谈效果。
If Johnny always tells lies, you are not going to listen to anything that he says!
如果强尼总是说谎你就不会听信他讲的任何⼀句话
So before you consider what a person has to say, first spend some time verifying their validity.
所以在考虑⼀个⼈说了什么之前应该先花时间确认他的话是否真实可靠。
Only evaluate what a person says after you have the chance to first establish that they are indeed reliable andthat their opinion is (whether it is) indeed worth considering.

第四⼗⼋颗珍珠⼀⽯多⻦。

⸻
PEARL 50: To be successful is to work selectively.
第五⼗颗珍珠 成功的关键在于有选择地⼯作。
放⼤两号字体这句话提醒我们聚焦在重要的少数胜过分散在众多事务中。
People say that in order to be successful, one has to be talented and work hard.
⼈们常说要想成功就必须有才华并且努⼒⼯作。
While these two factors are indeed two of the top three qualities needed to be successful,
虽然这两点确实是成功所需的三⼤要素中的两个
however, neither is actually the #1!
然⽽它们都不是最重要的那⼀个
The most important thing to do if you want to be successful is to work intelligently
如果你想成功最重要的是要聪明地⼯作
by selecting only a few things, focusing on them, and doingthe best you can with those few things.
也就是只选择少数⼏件事专注于它们并全⼒以赴地完成它们。
The goal is not to continue adding to your to-do list,
⽬标不是不断往你的待办清单⾥添加新任务
but rather to work on subtracting various things on your plate
⽽是要设法减少你当前的任务负担
until there is actually nothing left to subtract.

⸻
PEARL 51: Maximal alignment means minimal work.
第五⼗⼀颗珍珠 ⾼度对⻬事半功倍。
In a business collaboration, maximal alignment of interests in the beginning produces minimal work later.
在⼀项商业合作中如果⼀开始各⽅利益⾼度对⻬后期所需的⼯作量就会最⼩。
The opposite is also true:
反之亦然
minimal alignment of interests among the various parties early on
如果在初期各⽅的利益没有对⻬
often ends up necessitating a lot of unproductive work later.
往往会导致后⾯产⽣⼤量⽆效的⼯作。
⸻
Pearl 52: Clearly define the issue first.
第五⼗⼆颗珍珠 先把问题界定清楚。
When you clearly define the issue first, you are actually already halfway there!

随着时间推移我们做的事情会不断变化
how we do things,
但我们做事的⽅式
as well as our human quality and attributes that are reflected through the things we do and how we do it,

does not change.
却始终如⼀。

如果我们所做的事情没有如我们所期望的那样发展
yet the decision to do them was our own to begin with,
但⼀开始做这件事的决定是我们⾃⼰做出的
then we as human beings tend to be more accepting of the outcome
那么作为⼈类我们往往更容易接受这样的结果
than we would have been if the decision to do them was made for us by others.
⽐起如果是别⼈替我们做这个决定的情况来说更能接受。
The reason for this is that in the former situation,
之所以如此是因为在前⼀种情况下
we have no one to blame but ourselves.
我们除了⾃⼰之外没⼈可以责怪。
⸻
Pearl 56: You can make yourself happier.
第五⼗六颗珍珠 你可以让⾃⼰更快乐。
Human beings become unhappy when we unwisely compare what we have with the ideal and often non-existent alternatives!
⼈类之所以感到不快乐是因为我们不明智地把⾃⼰拥有的东⻄与那些理想的、甚⾄根本不存在的选项作⽐较
So, the way to make ourselves happier—which does work every time—is to compare your current situation only with other existing alternatives.
因此让⾃⼰更快乐的⽅式⸺这真的每次都有效⸺就是把你⽬前的状况只拿来和其他「真实存在的」选择做⽐较。
As long as your current situation is better than all other existing alternatives, you will be happy!
只要你现在的情况⽐所有其他现实中的选择都好你就会感到快乐
⸻
Pearl 57: Pick the longest straw you see.
第五⼗七颗珍珠 挑选你所看到最⻓的稻草。
We sometimes are stuck in inaction because we feel that the method that we have is still not the perfect one.
有时候我们会因为觉得⼿上拥有的⽅法还不够完美⽽陷⼊⽆所作为的状态。
Well, the 100% ideal method actually does not exist!
但事实上百分之百理想的⽅法根本不存在
So, as long as what we are considering is the best among the existing choices of method, then let’s do it!

Some people live by focusing on [the errors of] others or even by trying to sabotage others (e.g., a competitor).

第六⼗六颗珍珠⽤听者的语⾔说话⽽⾮说话者的语⾔。
The goal of communication is to be understood.

第六⼗七颗珍珠仔细调查所有可⾏选项。
Before making a decision, make sure that you have indeed examined carefully all of the available choices.
在做决定之前⼀定要确保你确实已经仔细检查了所有可⽤的选择。
Jumping into making a decision and then finding out that there are actually choices that were not considered, is a waste of time!
仓促做出决定事后才发现还有其他未曾考虑的选项那就是在浪费时间

第六⼗⼋颗珍珠 要么全程参与要么完全不参与。
Either involve someone in a whole discussion, or do not involve that person at all.

A person who does not know all of the factors that apply to your situation will waste your time with unworkable options and irrelevant advice.
不了解你处境所有关键因素的⼈会⽤不切实际的选项和⽆关的建议浪费你的时间。
Involving someone halfway is the best way to create confusion!

Pearl 70: The best life balances virtues.
第七⼗颗珍珠 最美的⼈⽣是美德的平衡。
Lack of effort hurts productivity, while extreme effort uses all of our energy and leaves us unhappy.
缺乏努⼒會損害⽣產⼒⽽過度努⼒則會耗盡我們所有精⼒讓我們變得不快樂。
So, life is always an optimization process.
所以⼈⽣其實是⼀個不斷優化的過程。
Finding your particular balance gives you a good life.
找到適合⾃⼰的平衡點就能擁有美好⼈⽣。
(If the vertical (Y) axis is productivity or happiness, and the horizontal (X) axis is human effort (from 0% to 100%), then life is always a bell-shaped curve.
如果縱軸 Y代表⽣產⼒或快樂橫軸 X代表⼈類的努⼒程度從0%到100% 那麼⼈⽣的曲線就是⼀個鐘形曲線。
While 0% effort will get us nowhere (low values in the Y axis),
0%的努⼒會⼀事無成Y軸的值很低
trying while ignoring the writing on the wall (100% effort) is also detrimental and non-productive (also low values in Y axis).
但如果在明知無望時仍投⼊100%的努⼒也會適得其反無法產⽣效果 Y軸同樣很低。
So life is always an optimization process,
所以⼈⽣永遠是⼀個優化過程
i.e., we keep on working and exploring to find that particular location on the X axis (particular % of effort)
也就是說我們不斷努⼒與探索試圖在X軸上找到那個最佳的位置某個努⼒的百分⽐
where the vertical Y axis value (productivity/happiness) is at a maximum.
這個位置能讓縱軸Y ⽣產⼒/幸福達到最⼤值。
