When you look back on yourself in the past – 10, 20, 30 or more years ago – it’s surprising to see how much you have changed over time. Your experiences, your friends, your family and your work have all shaped who you are right now. But where will you be in another few years? How will you have changed? Reflective writing in your journal is an excellent way to think about what you want out of the future.
当你10年、20年或更多年后回顾过去时,你会吃惊地发现,随着时光的流逝,你也发生了很大的变化。你的经历、朋友、家庭和工作造就了现在的你。但是再过几年你会在哪里呢?你会如何变化呢?这样反思性的写作,会是思考未来你想要什么的一种好的方式。
You may have already written a letter to your younger self before, conveying all the wisdom and perspective you wish you had had at the time. Now consider the opposite end of the spectrum; what would you say if you wrote your future self a letter?
你也许以前试过给过去的自己写信,向年轻时的自己传授一些人生的智慧和观点,你希望那时候的自己就能知道这些。现在我们换个角度看问题,如果让你给未来的自己写封信,你会写点什么?
Just imagine writing a letter to your future self 5 years from now, then opening it at that exact moment 5 years down the road to see how much of it resonated with you. It is a useful supplementary tool to be used in goal achievement, because when you write the letter to your future self, it helps crystallize exactly how you anticipate yourself to become at that specific moment down the road.
想象一下,给5年后的'自己写一封信,当5年后你打开那封信时,你会产生多少共鸣。这是实现目标的一种有用的辅助工具,因为当你给未来的自己写信时,你会慢慢理清希望自己在人生旅途的那个特定时刻变成什么样子。
As you read the letter in the future, you can assess how many things match up (or not vs. your expectations in the past and think about why that’s the case. Often times, the goals we set and our goal achievement process are subjected to a lot of changes along the way, due to varying obstacles, unanticipated circumstances and changing priorities. The letter gives you a macro-view of your initial vision and lets you recognize how your current vision differs from the past.
当你在未来读这封信时,你可以看看有多少事情是像你过去期望的那样,你也会思考为什么会这样。很多时候,我们设定目标在实现的过程中会受到沿途中各种因素的影响,因为会遇到各种各样的困难、各种意外情况并需要不断调整优先级。这封信能让你从宏观的角度上去看自己最初的愿景,让你意识到自己现在的想法和过去相比有多么不同。
When you open the letter in the future, you as your future self gets to compare how you used to be in the past and compare with how you are currently. This lets you see in totality how much things have changed since then – and this can be a really intriguingexperience. It’s interesting to just see how much you have grown/changed since you wrote the letter.
当你以后看信时,你会把过去的自己和现在的自己进行比较。这会让你看清从写信时起你发生了哪些变化,这种体验是非常有趣的。光看看从你写信开始发生了哪些变化就很有趣了。
我们班可谓是人才济济,强手如云。在这个班级里,我算是一个名副其实的`“丑小鸭”了。
我羡慕范潇龙雄辩的口才,老师刚提问他就举手;我羡慕陈燕婷娟秀的字迹;我羡慕陈瑜的文才,写起作文来一挥而就,下笔如有神;我羡慕苏亦昕流利的英语,说起英语来滔滔不决,犹如一个小老外……我羡慕别人也怨自己无能。
或许是渐渐没了信心,在班里,我几乎到了“默默无闻”的地步。有一会,一个同学借我一本书,这本书中有一句话对我深有感悟“我愿用自己的努力,编织一片片羽毛,使自己变成一只美丽的天鹅。”是啊,作者能努力使自己成天鹅,那我不能拥有自己的“闪光点”吗?
之后,我开始发现自己的长处。每天我都练习写毛笔字,有时作业一多,时间也往后移,弄得我很晚才能睡,但我始终坚持练习。每回,老师一布置预习的作业,我就在语文书上左标右写,把一本好好的书写得满满的……经过许久的努力,我的字在班上数一数二,上课,老师一提问,我就举手……我发现了自己的“闪光点”,渐渐走出了低谷,下课和同学们嬉戏,打成一片。
但我要感谢那句话,正是那句话,使我学会了争取,努力。即便我这只“丑小鸭”无法在春天变成天鹅,但我愿用自己的努力,让自己飞上蓝天。
感谢那句话,感谢那句令我终生难忘的话。
