美聯(lián)英語提供：你要感謝年輕時(shí)努力的你和真心朋友

The gas station nearest my house happens to face a strip club.It is apparently a very successful strip club, as they could afford to install a LCD screen on their roof that might be visible from the Space Station.It's certainly visible from the gas station.At some point my eyes will drift up while pumping gas, and there will be a one-story image of a young woman in some stage of near-undress.離我家最近的加油站對面碰巧有一家脫衣舞夜總會。這家夜總的屋頂裝了一個(gè)巨大的LED屏幕，說不定在太空上都看得見。能夠支付這樣的費(fèi)用，看來經(jīng)營得非常成功。不用說，在加油站也能看見那塊屏幕。在加油的時(shí)候，我會不經(jīng)意地往上看，一層樓高的屏幕上顯示著一個(gè)幾乎一絲不掛的少女。

As I was getting some gas this morning, I wondered for the first time what a woman pumping gas thought when she looked at that screen.Though it would depend on the woman, I thought.A woman who had once been an exotic dancer herself would certainly look at that image differently than a Catholic nun.今天早上，我又來到這里加油，腦海中突然有一個(gè)問題揮之不去：一個(gè)女人來加油的 時(shí)候看到那塊屏幕會有什么想法呢？我覺得那要看她是個(gè)怎樣的人。曾經(jīng)當(dāng)過脫衣舞者的女人和天主教的修女肯定會對那個(gè)圖像有不同的看法。

The image would look different to each of us.And when I say look different, I mean we would be seeing what amounts to a different image.For while the young woman's pose and attire that I see are identical to the pose and attire that every other man, woman, and child sees, the story that image tells me is told uniquely by me, by my own ideas about women and advertising and maybe even gas stations.那張圖像對每個(gè)人來說都是不一樣的，這個(gè)不一樣是指我們會產(chǎn)生不一樣的想法。雖然那個(gè)少女的姿勢打扮在每一個(gè)男人、女人、小孩眼中都是一樣的，但是我在那圖像中捕捉到的故事是獨(dú)一無二的，是由我自身對女人、廣告、甚至是加油站的想法創(chuàng)造的。

The image is nothing;the story is everything.Good to remember if you're a writer.Writers don't report the facts.The fact that there is a strip club with a giant LCD screen blazing near-nudity for all to see means nothing in reality.All that ever matters is what a person believes when they look upon it.What a person believes is the terrain of the storyteller.圖像本身什么都不是，故事才是一切。如果你是個(gè)作家，你會知道作家并不是描寫現(xiàn)實(shí)。那兒有一家脫衣舞夜總會，屋頂上有一塊巨大的LED屏幕，屏幕上顯示著幾近裸體的少女，這是現(xiàn)實(shí)，沒有意義的現(xiàn)實(shí)。真正有意義的是人看到這個(gè)景象時(shí)萌生的想法，人的思

想是創(chuàng)作故事的土壤。

And by the way, it is the only terrain of the storyteller.Storytellers, whether they are conscious of it or not, wish to alter reality.We are not so interested in changing the image that flashes on the great LCD screen of the world.Mostly that's beyond our control.We could march, or protest, or fill out petitions to get the screen changed, but it's faster, ultimately, to tell ourselves a story about what we see there.而且，思想是創(chuàng)作故事的唯一土壤。講故事的人會有意無意地想去改變現(xiàn)實(shí)。我們不是想把現(xiàn)實(shí)中大屏幕上惹眼的圖像換掉，大多數(shù)情況下我們都是有心無力。我們當(dāng)然可以游行示威，寫信請?jiān)赴涯瞧聊粨Q掉，但說到底，更快捷的辦法是給自己講個(gè)跟眼前的事物有關(guān)的故事。

I sometimes forget I have to power to change that story.My mind drifts as idly from thought to thought as my eyes drift from gas pump to pinup.What occurs in this exchange between the world I look upon and the story I tell can happen so fast, can be so habitual, that I can lose track of who is telling the story I am hearing.The moment I remember, the moment I see my mind as a blank page on which to write my life, I am the author once more, and my life is mine again.有時(shí)候我會忘記自己有改變故事的能力。我的視線四處游動，從汽油管飄忽到半裸少

女，我的思維也跟著漫不經(jīng)心地跳躍。把眼前的事實(shí)創(chuàng)作成的自己故事，這就像我的習(xí)慣一樣，一眨眼的功夫，我已經(jīng)分不清我到底是在創(chuàng)作故事，還是成為了故事的主人公。等我回過神來的時(shí)候，等我空白的腦海重新回想起自己生活的時(shí)候，我又重新成為故事的作者，重新回到了自己的生活中。Let's say you have 388 Facebook friends, which is apparently the average.比如說你有388個(gè)Facebook好友，這只是平均數(shù)字。

Now, take away the people you don't actually like.How many true friendsdoes this leave?

現(xiàn)在，刨除你不喜歡的人，還剩多少真正的朋友——就是你真正關(guān)心他們生活和幸福的那種朋友？

Sorry to say this, but whether that number is high or low, you need to halve it.很抱歉這樣說，但無論是多是少，你都需要再減半。

Yes, fifty per cent of the people with whom you've laughed, cried, fought and maybe even been in their wedding party, 50 per cent of them don't like you-and there's a study to prove it.對，只有50%是你跟他們一起笑、一起哭、一起奮斗，甚至可能還出席了他們婚禮的，其余的都不喜歡你。我們有研究為證。

Published in online journal Public Library of Science , scientists from both Tel Aviv University and MIT have carried out various social experiments and looked into other studies' findings.研究發(fā)表在網(wǎng)絡(luò)期刊《公共科學(xué)圖書館》上，來自特拉維夫大學(xué)和麻省理工學(xué)院的科學(xué)家們進(jìn)行了多種社會實(shí)驗(yàn)，也研究了其他研究成果。

Their aim, according to the Telegraph , was to “determine how many friendships are reciprocal, and how many are one-sided”.據(jù)《每日電訊報(bào)》報(bào)道，他們的目的是要“確定有多少友誼是相互的，有多少是一廂情愿的?！?/p>

And the findings show we're not able to truly identify which of our circle are true friends, and which are just acquaintances.研究結(jié)果表明我們不能真正確定我們的朋友圈里有多少真正的朋友，有多少只能算熟人。

One of the scientists on the project, Dr.Erez Shmueli: “It turns out that we’re very bad at judging who our friends are.”

參與這個(gè)項(xiàng)目的一位科學(xué)家Erez Shmueli博士說：“事實(shí)證明我們都不擅長判斷誰才是真正的朋友。”

“If you think someone is your friend, you expect him to feel the same way.But in fact that's not the case — only 50 percent of those polled matched up in the bidirectional friendship category.”

“如果你認(rèn)為某個(gè)人是你的朋友，你就以為他也拿你當(dāng)朋友。但事實(shí)并非如此，你的朋友中只有一半真的拿你當(dāng)朋友?！?/p>

美聯(lián)英語提供：哪些事情最能點(diǎn)燃你的靈魂

I couldn’t resist the “What quote will define your life in 2017?” challenge on Facebook last week.When I saw the results, I was pleasantly surprised at how accurate it was.It pretty much nailed my outlook on life.我忍不住參加了上周在Facebook發(fā)起的“一句話預(yù)言你2017年的生活”的挑戰(zhàn)。當(dāng)我看了這些結(jié)果，我很驚喜它是如此的準(zhǔn)確，幾乎概括出我個(gè)人的生活觀念。

So as 2016 comes to a close, rather than looking back, I’m looking forward.And, focusing on these five things that really set my soul on fire.所以，既然2016年即將結(jié)束了，與其回顧過往，我選擇向前看。然后關(guān)注在下面這5件真正點(diǎn)燃我的靈魂的事情。

1.Double down on people.1.在人的方面下重注。

Technology is transforming how we work and live, but it’s human creativity that accelerates progress.Technology enables people to take on more interesting and higher-value work--so we need to provide learning opportunities to help them step up to these new challenges.雖然科學(xué)技術(shù)正在改變我們的工作和生活方式，不過人類的活動確實(shí)在推動社會的發(fā)展。技術(shù)能夠讓人們承擔(dān)更多有趣和高質(zhì)的工作——所以我們要提供學(xué)習(xí)機(jī)會幫助他們接觸這些新挑戰(zhàn)。

2.Try to be my best professionally and personally.2.盡力做到專業(yè)與個(gè)人方面的最佳。

In 2017, I will continue to build on my Thrive journey.By being transparent about both my successes and my setbacks, I hope to foster a community of like-minded people who will dispel the myth that burnout is the price we pay for success.在2017年，我會繼續(xù)完成我的名為“Thrive”的項(xiàng)目。公正對待我的成功與挫折，我希望構(gòu)建一個(gè)匯聚志趣相投的人們的社區(qū)，共同破除“倦怠就是成功的代價(jià)”的謠言。

3.Lift as I rise.3.互幫互助，共同發(fā)展。

The next generation holds so much promise.And, I can help these emerging leaders by giving them opportunities to learn and the safety net to fail forward on the path to achieving their aspirations.年輕一代許下太多的承諾，而我能為這些新晉的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者提供學(xué)習(xí)的機(jī)會，還有預(yù)防失敗的安全網(wǎng)，以此幫助他們追逐自己的夢想。

4.Celebrate more with my team.4.多與團(tuán)隊(duì)?wèi)c祝。

They are simply awesome.I am very blessed to work with such smart and compassionate people.And, we should take more time to celebrate the amazing things we’re doing for our people and our business.他們真的非常有才。我很感恩能夠與這些精明有熱情的人們一起工作。所以，我們應(yīng)該多與他們一起慶祝我們?yōu)槿藗兒凸舅冻龅拿篮脮r(shí)刻。

5.Family.Family.Family.5.家庭。家庭。家庭。

In honor of my mom, who was a teacher, I’m going to close with a quote from a beloved American author, Mark Twain.我的母親曾經(jīng)是一位老師，為了感謝她，我準(zhǔn)備引用我最愛的美國作家馬克?吐溫的一句名言來結(jié)束這篇文章。

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.So throw off the bowlines.Sail away from the safe harbor.Catch the trade winds in your sails.Explore.Dream.Discover.”

“從現(xiàn)在起20年內(nèi)，相比你做了的事情，你會更后悔自己沒有做的事情。所以張開你的帆，遠(yuǎn)離安全灣，迎風(fēng)而行，去探索，去做夢，去發(fā)現(xiàn)吧！”

What sets YOUR soul on fire? I hope you are inspired to boldly chase what you are passionate about in 2017.Best wishes for an extraordinary new year.對于你來說，哪些事情能夠點(diǎn)燃你的靈魂？我希望你能夠在2017年大膽地追逐你的夢想。祝福你有一個(gè)美好的新年。

http://004km.cn/test/kuaisu.aspx?tid=16-73675-0 美聯(lián)英語提供：情人節(jié)你所不知的神秘習(xí)俗

1.There are many favorite songs of Valentine's Day.Here is one of them: 人們喜歡唱的情人節(jié)歌曲有很多。下面就是一首： Let me call you sweetheart, 讓我叫你一聲甜美的人吧，I'm in love with you.我已投入了你的情河，Let me hear you whisper, 請你悄悄給我說一聲，That you love me, too.你也愛上了我。

Keep the lovelight shining, 讓愛之光照著我，In your eyes so true.那是你眼中噴出的真摯情火，Let me call you sweetheart, 讓我叫你一聲甜美的人吧，I' m in love with you.我已投入了你的情河。

2.In Wales wooden love spoons were carved and given as gifts on February 14th.Hearts, keys andkeyholes were favorite decorations on the spoons.The decoration meant, “You unlock my heart!” 在威爾士，雕刻有花紋的木質(zhì)羹匙被視為愛情的象征，并在2月14日作為禮物互相贈送。心、鑰匙、鎖孔等刻在羹匙上的裝飾性圖案倍受青睞。它代表著，“開啟我的心！” 3.In the Middle Ages, young men and women drew names from a bowl to see who their valentines would be.They would wear these names on their sleeves for one week.To wear your heart on your sleeve now means that it is easy for other people to know how you are feeling.在中世紀(jì)，青年男女從碗里抽出寫有名字的紙條，看看他們的情人將會是誰。他們把名字寫在衣袖上，并穿一個(gè)星期。現(xiàn)在，穿著袖子上帶有心形圖案的衣服意味著其他人容易懂得你的感情。

4.In some countries, a young woman may receive a gift of clothing from a young man.If she keeps the gift, it means she will marry him.在一些國家，年輕的男子可以向青年女子贈送衣物作為禮物。如果女子收下了禮物，則意味著她愿意嫁給這位男子。

5.Some people used to believe that if a woman saw a robin flying overhead on Valentine's Day, it meant she would marry a sailor.If she saw a sparrow, she would marry a poor man and be very happy.If she saw a goldfinch, she would marry a millionaire.一些人曾經(jīng)相信，在情人節(jié)里，如果一個(gè)女子看到一只知更鳥在頭上飛過，意味著她可能嫁

給一位水手；如果她看到一只麻雀，則她可能嫁給一個(gè)窮人，但卻非?？鞓?；如果她看到一只金翅雀，則可能嫁給一位百萬富翁。

6.A love seat is a wide chair.It was first made to seat one woman and her wide dress.Later, the love seat or courting seat had two sections,often in an S-shape.In this way, a couple could sit together--but not too closely!愛情座椅是一種寬大的椅子。它最初是為那些穿著肥大衣裙的女子設(shè)計(jì)的。后來的愛情座椅，或者叫做宮廷座椅，有兩個(gè)部分，經(jīng)常被做成“S”形。這樣，夫妻就可以坐在一起--雖然不能太親密！

7.Think of five or six names of boys or girls you might marry, As you twist the stem of an apple, recite the names until the stem comes off.You will marry the person whose name you were saying when thestem fell off.想著五、六個(gè)你可能嫁或者娶的男孩或女孩的名字。當(dāng)你擰蘋果把兒時(shí)，默念這些名字直到蘋果把兒被扭斷，這時(shí)，你念到的人就是你將要嫁或者娶的人。

8.Pick a dandelion that has gone to seed.Take a deep breath and blow the seeds into the wind.Count the seeds that remain on the stem.That is the number of children you will have.摘一個(gè)已經(jīng)結(jié)子的蒲公英。深呼吸，然后把種子吹向天空。數(shù)數(shù)留在蒲公英桿上的種子，那就是你將擁有的孩子的數(shù)量。

9.If you cut an apple in half and count how many seeds are inside, you will also know how many children you will have.如果你把一個(gè)蘋果切成兩半，并數(shù)清蘋果核里面子的數(shù)量，你就會知道你將會有多少個(gè)孩子。

第四篇：【美聯(lián)英語】雙語閱讀：青春

小編給你一個(gè)美聯(lián)英語官方免費(fèi)試聽課申請鏈接： http://m.meten.com/test/waijiao.aspx?tid=16-73675-0 美聯(lián)英語提供：青春

Let's take steps to banish some of the most common negative thoughts many of us repeat to ourselves.Being in a negative space is harmful to our overall well-being, because what you dwell on can easily become self fulfilling if you don't change your mindset.讓我們一起行動起來，消滅那些我們經(jīng)常告訴自己的消極想法吧!如果你不改變想法，而是一味地沉浸在消極的念頭中，那么，我們的整個(gè)身心就會受到影響，因?yàn)椤柏瑝簟币矔烧妗?/p>

1.I'm not good enough.我不夠好。

This type of negative thought that can apply to many categories.Maybe you don't think you're a good enough mother or good at a sport.Even if you find yourself lacking in something, there's no need to keep repeating it to yourself.The human brain is an incredible thing.Be inspired by Dr.Jill Bolte Taylor, Harvard-trained neuroscientist who suffered a stroke that left her unable to walk, read, write, talk, or remember her previous life.Dr.Taylor took eight years to recover and has since then written a best-selling book about her experience and appeared on Oprah.Keep on working toward something, and watch the leaps and

bounds you'll make.這種消極想法有很多類型。比如你認(rèn)為自己不是個(gè)稱職的媽媽或不擅長運(yùn)動。即使你真的發(fā)現(xiàn)了自己的弱點(diǎn)，也沒必要對自己不斷復(fù)述。人腦是神奇的。吉爾泰勒就是個(gè)激勵(lì)的好典型，她是哈佛大學(xué)的神經(jīng)系統(tǒng)學(xué)專家，中風(fēng)后她就失去了行走、閱讀、書寫、交談的能力了，甚至還失憶了。她花了八年的時(shí)間復(fù)原，用自己的經(jīng)歷寫了暢銷書，還上了奧普拉的節(jié)目。堅(jiān)持做一件事，親眼見證自己的變化。

2.No one cares about me.沒人關(guān)心我。

To accurately say that your family and friends don't care about you would be a very rare situation.Maybe you're being too negative and overlooking the gestures of love they show you.They don't even have to be big gestures, but it's the little things they do for you that count.And people may be reacting to the energy you're putting out;perhaps you think they don't care about you so you don't make any effort in your relationships.Start showing people you care, so they can show you back in kind.And if you don't have good relationships with the people you know, what's stopping you from making new friends?

家人朋友都不關(guān)心你，這種情況其實(shí)不太常見。可能你過于消極的想法使你忽略了他們對你表達(dá)的愛。他們甚至并不需要為你做什么驚天動地的大事，正是一些小事才真正打動人心?；蛘吣阌X得沒人關(guān)心你，所以無需再經(jīng)營人際關(guān)系，但其實(shí)也許人們只有在感知到你的付出后，才會對你進(jìn)行回報(bào);關(guān)心別人，別人才會關(guān)心你。如果你和周圍人的關(guān)系處理不好，為何不結(jié)交些新朋友?

3.I really dislike this person.我真的不喜歡這個(gè)人。

If you dislike a person in your work or personal life, focusing on her bad qualities is not going to make things better.You need to let go of your assumptions about her and know that she is human too, which means she makes mistakes.Either you move on and stop thinking and talking about her, or learn to approach her or think about her in a positive manner.Focus on her good qualities, and repeat them to yourself instead of honing in on the unpleasant things.如果工作或生活中有你討厭的人，只關(guān)注她的缺點(diǎn)有害無益。你需要放下對她的所有成見，告訴自己她也是個(gè)人，也有犯錯(cuò)的時(shí)候。要么就不再談?wù)撍拖胫?，要么學(xué)著去接近她，或想想她好的一面。多想想她的優(yōu)點(diǎn)，不要再專注于讓你不開心的事情。

4.Why is she better off?

為什么她比我好?

Comparing yourself to someone else is never productive or positive.There's always going to be someone who is younger, prettier, smarter, or richer than you.If you keep coveting what someone else has, then this may cause you to be resentful of them, which will open a whole other negative can of worms.Remember, what they don't have is your whole package.Be appreciative of what you have, because if you want to play the comparison game, remember that there are people who are also worse off than you are.和別人比較永遠(yuǎn)不是有效率和積極的表現(xiàn)。總有比你年輕，漂亮，聰明，富有的人。如果你始終關(guān)注別人擁有什么，會帶來你對他們的恨意，隨即帶來更多消極的想法。記住，你所擁有的也是他們所沒有的。珍惜你所擁有的東西，如果真的想和別人比較，也別忘了總有

比你差的人。

5.I'll never reach my goal.我永遠(yuǎn)無法達(dá)到目標(biāo)。

If you think you're not going to be able “get there,” think again.There are many people who are worse off and have overcome bigger obstacles than what you are facing.Take, for example, Olympic sprinter Oscar Pistorius, an amputee who overcame his handicap to compete in the Olympics against his able-bodied peers.Everything is within your reach as long as you work hard and have a a positive attitude.如果你認(rèn)為自己達(dá)不到，再想想。比你差的人比比皆是，他們遇到的困難也比你的更大。比如，奧運(yùn)會短跑選手刀鋒戰(zhàn)士奧斯卡·皮斯托利斯，一個(gè)被截肢的運(yùn)動員，戰(zhàn)勝了自己的阻礙，在其他健壯的對手中脫穎而出贏得了奧運(yùn)會的冠軍。只要你努力付出，有著積極的信念，任何事都能夠做到。

Are you waiting for your dreams to come true and change your life?

I am sorry to tell you that dreams don't come true.你是否還在等待實(shí)現(xiàn)夢想來改變你的生活?

很遺憾，那樣夢想是不能成真的。

Rather, it is your goals that can forever change your life.You need to set goals in order turn your dreams into reality.但是，你的目標(biāo)卻能永遠(yuǎn)的改變你的生活

如果要想夢想成真，你就需要給自己訂立目標(biāo)

Don't Confuse Dreams and Goals

Dreams are easy.They are free, too.不要將你的夢想和目標(biāo)拒之門外

夢想簡單易得

However, dreams by themselves are just that… dreams.然而，夢想本身也就是夢想

They are imaginary.And they don't produce tangible results.它們是被想象出來的，它們也不會形成有形的產(chǎn)物。

You need to turn your dreams into action.You need goals to make the visions

of your dreams real.你要做的就是將你的夢想變?yōu)樾袆印Ｄ阈枰O(shè)立目標(biāo)，將你的夢想變得觸手可及。

“Dreams can inspire you, but goals can change your life.”

夢想能夠激勵(lì)你，但是目標(biāo)才能改變你的生活

Goals are all about action.Goals turn dreams into reality.目標(biāo)與一系列的行動相關(guān)。目標(biāo)能讓夢想成真。

Goals change you and can change your life.目標(biāo)可以改變你，改變你的生活。

Don't confuse your dreams with goals.不要將你有了目標(biāo)的夢想拒之門外。

Dreams occupy your mind.Goals take over your reality.夢想充實(shí)你的內(nèi)心世界，目標(biāo)占據(jù)著你的現(xiàn)實(shí)生活。

What will it take to turn your dreams into goals?

怎樣才能把你的夢想轉(zhuǎn)化成你的目標(biāo)?

Here are 10 Big Differences Between Goals and Dreams:

這里有夢想和目標(biāo)的10個(gè)不同點(diǎn)

Goals are something you are acting on.目標(biāo)是你正在做的某些事。

Dreams are something you are just thinking about.Goals require action.Dreams can happen without lifting a finger, even while you are asleep.夢想是你內(nèi)心正在思考的某些東西。目標(biāo)需要行動。睡覺的時(shí)候可以產(chǎn)生夢想，甚至不動一根手指也一樣可以辦到。

Goals have deadlines.Dreams are just, well, dreams.目標(biāo)是有期限的，而夢想只是夢想。

Goals must have a deadline.They have a time limit.Dreams can go on forever.In fact, many people maintain dreams their entire lives without ever reaching them.目標(biāo)肯定有一個(gè)有效期，它們是有時(shí)間限制的。但是夢想?yún)s能永遠(yuǎn)存在。事實(shí)上，許多人都有一個(gè)一生都沒能實(shí)現(xiàn)的夢想。

Dreams are free.Goals have a cost.夢想不需要你支付任何東西，而目標(biāo)是需要付出代價(jià)的。

While you can daydream for free, goals don't come without a price.Time, money, effort and sweat.How will you pay for your goals?

做白日夢不需要有付出，但是目標(biāo)卻不可能沒有付出。時(shí)間，金錢，精力，汗水。為了達(dá)成你的目標(biāo)，你打算付出些什么呢?

Goals produce results.Dreams don't.目標(biāo)是可以產(chǎn)生一定的結(jié)果的，但夢想不會。

Want to change your life? Your job? Your status in life? Goals can do that.A good friend of mine made six-figures on the ebook he published.He did that.Had it stayed as a dream, his life would have been as it always was.想要你的生活，工作，社會地位有些改變嗎?目標(biāo)可以幫你做到。我的一個(gè)好朋友出版的電子書數(shù)量超過了六位數(shù)，他確實(shí)做到了。如果他一直讓夢想只是夢想的話，他的生活還是跟以往一樣，沒有任何改變。

Dreams are imaginary.Goals are based in reality.夢想是想象的產(chǎn)物，而目標(biāo)確實(shí)存在于現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中。

You may dream of being Superman, but that is probably not going to happen.Goals are about what you can actually accomplish.They are grounded in the reality of our world.Goals should be big, but not supernatural.你的夢想可能是做一個(gè)超人，但很可能它不能成真。目標(biāo)與你實(shí)際完成的事有關(guān)，它們存在于我們的現(xiàn)實(shí)生活中。目標(biāo)可以很大，但絕不是超自然。

Goals have a finish line.Dreams never have to end.目標(biāo)有一個(gè)終點(diǎn)，但夢想?yún)s可以是沒有邊際的。

Dreams can go on forever.They don't have to have an ending point.Goals must have a specific outcome.夢想可以一直存在，他不需要有終結(jié)點(diǎn)。但目標(biāo)肯定會有一個(gè)特定的結(jié)果。

Dreams can inspire you.Goals can change your life.夢想可以一直激勵(lì)你，而目標(biāo)才能改變你的生活。

Dreams can bring you motivation.They can inspire you.But, goals can change your life forever.夢想能給你帶來激情，它能一直鼓勵(lì)你，但是目標(biāo)才能一直改變你的生活。

Goals must have focus.Dreams don't.我們必須專注目標(biāo)，夢想可以不用。

Dreams can be drifting, ever-changing thoughts.Goals must be laser-focused.They must be specific and they must be always on your mind.夢想是可以隨著思想的變化而變化的，但是目標(biāo)必須要有焦點(diǎn)。它們是具體的，印在你腦海里的。

Goals require hard work.Dreams just require your imagination.目標(biāo)需要我們努力工作，而夢想只需要你的想象。

Dreaming is easy.做夢都挺容易的。

Almost everyone has a dream.But, fewer people have goals.幾乎人人都有夢想。但是極少人有目標(biāo)。

Goals are hard and they require hard work.(See #3)

完成目標(biāo)是艱難的，同時(shí)也需要我們?yōu)榇硕Φ毓ぷ鳌?/p>

Dreams stretch your imagination.Goals stretch you.夢想可以拓寬你的想象力，而目標(biāo)是拓展你自己。
