第一章 活在当下 Just for Today 就为了今天，我将会独自静静地呆上半小时放松。在这半 小时里，某个时刻，我会对我日后的生活有个更好的看法。 Just for today I will be happy. This assumes to be true what Abraham Lincoln said, that “Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.” Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will not be a mental loafer. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration. Just for today I will exercise my soul in three ways. I will do somebody a good turn and not get found out. If anybody knows of it, it will not count. I will do at least two things I don’t want to do –– just for exercise. Just for today I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticize not one bit, and try not to improve or regulate anybody but myself. Just for today I will have a program, I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will save myself from two pests: hurry and indecision. 002 Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself and relax. During this half hour, sometime, I will try to get a better perspective on my life. Just for today I will be unafraid. Especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful, and to believe that as I give to the world, so the world will give to me. 只为今天 就为了今天，我会很快乐。亚伯拉罕·林肯说过，“大多数人都是 决定想怎么高兴就怎么高兴。”这已经被认为是真理。 就为了今天，我会尽力心强志坚。我会学习。学一些有用的东西。 我不会做一个精神上的流浪汉。我会读一些需要努力、思考和注意力 集中的东西。 就为了今天，我会用三种方法来磨练我的灵魂。我会做对某人有 利的事但不能被发现。若有人发现了就不算数。我将会做至少两件我 不愿做的事情——只为了磨练。 就为了今天，我会过得很惬意。看起来我达到了最佳状态，穿着 得体、讲话谦虚、行为礼貌、一点儿不吹毛求疵，尽量改进和调节自 己而不是别人。 就为了今天，我会制定一个计划，我也许不会严格地遵守它，但 我一定要有计划。我会避免两种错误：仓促行事和优柔寡断。 就为了今天，我将会独自静静地呆上半小时放松。在这半小时里， 某个时刻，我会对我日后的生活有个更好的看法。 就为了今天，我将不再害怕。尤其我不会再害怕享受美丽的事物， 并且相信我给予世界的，世界也会给予我。
