Together is Better 在一起,更好
看了一本充满启发的书 - 《在一起更好 》。简单的字、插画,还有很有意思的句子,让人看了有所启发。我看的版本是中英对照的。
I read a little book of inspiration - Together is Better by Simon Sinek. It's a book not to be missed - simple words and illustrations with inspirational quotes.
书中其中一段有意思的文字:
“愿景就像是个梦 - 要是我们不拿出实际的行动,它就会消失。
大张旗鼓,或是做点小改变都好。
不要再犹豫了,大胆试一试吧。”
”A vision is like a dream - it will disappear unless we do something with it.
Do something big or do something small.
But stop wondering and go on an adventure.“
“在一起,更好”这书名,让我想到了人与人之间的关系。一个人当然也可以独立自己做某些事,可是有些事在一起做的时候也会有不一样的效果或感受。有些事,有些时候,在一起,其实真的是更好。

Make Your Bed
I've been doing this first task of the day right every day since years ago. I've never thought that this would be the title of a great book. This book opened my eyes to the basic SEAL training as well. I strongly recommend this book to others. Each chapter includes a short story which teaches us life lessons.
Interestingly, the first principle is "if you want to change the world, start off by making your bed".
"If you make your bed every morning you will have accomplished the first task of the day. It will give you a small sense of pride and it will encourage you to do another task and another and another.
By the end of the day, that one task completed will have turned into many tasks completed. Making your bed will also reinforce the fact that little things in life matter."
How can we do the great things right if we can't even do the little things right?
Too often we measure success by the great things that we achieve.
Remember that every little thing in life counts.
Are you ready to accomplish more tasks each day?
Start your day by doing the first task of the day right.
Start your day by doing the first task of the day right.
