  • I'm gonna share with you the most important habit that you could ever learn in your life, and no, it's not something like meditate, exercise, or get up early.

    我要和你分享一個你此生會學到的最重要的習慣,不是像冥想、運動、或早起之類的。

  • This is something that I have not heard anyone talk about.

    這是我幾乎從來沒聽其他人提過的東西。

  • And I'm gonna tell you what it is, by sharing with you a quick two-minute story.

    我會透過短短的兩分鐘故事,告訴你這個習慣是什麼。

  • This is Tom, and Tom has told himself that 2019 is going to be the year where he finally gets his life together.

    這是 Tom,Tom 告訴自己 2019 年就是他把握生命、充實生活的一年了。

  • So on New Year's Eve of 2018, he sits down, and he writes out all of his New Year's resolutions, and he writes things like exercise, eat healthy, and get up early.

    所以在 2018 的除夕,他坐著寫下新年新希望,他寫下運動、吃得健康、早起之類的事情。

  • And, as Tom is writing all of this down, he is getting really excited, and he can almost feel all the newfound energy that he's going to have, and he even becomes proud of himself, just for thinking of doing all these things.

    在 Tom 寫下這些時,他很興奮,他快要能感受到嶄新的能量,他甚至光想著要做的那些事就為自己感到驕傲。

  • So the new year comes around, and Tom starts off really strong, he's working out, he's getting up early, and he looks and feels a lot better.

    新年一到,Tom 有很好的開始,他運動、早起,他的樣子和感受都很棒。

  • But one day, after a long day at work, he didn't really feel like going to the gym.

    但某天,在工作整天後,他不太想去健身房。

  • "It's not good to work out when you are tired," Tom would tell himself, so he decided to go home.

    「很累的時候運動不太好。」湯姆告訴自己,決定回家。

  • And when he got home, he didn't really feel like eating that big bowl of salad.

    接著他回到家,他不想吃那一大碗沙拉。

  • What he felt like eating was a great big juicy burger.

    他想吃一個巨大的多汁漢堡。

  • And again, Tom told himself that, "You know what, I have been working really hard over the past few weeks. I deserve a day off."

    再一次,Tom 告訴自己:「你知道嗎?我過去這幾個星期努力運動,值得休息一天。」

  • And that's exactly what he took for himself.

    於是他真的吃了漢堡。

  • And over the next few weeks, Tom's good habits started to slow down.

    接下來的幾個星期,Tom 的好習慣慢慢消失。

  • He started to sleep in a little bit, he would skip a gym session here and there, and the fast forward another few weeks, and almost all of Tom's good habits are gone, and he basically ended up exactly where he started.

    他開始睡一點懶覺,蹺掉一些健身房的課,再快轉到幾個星期後,Tom 的好習慣全沒了,他就跟一開始的他沒兩樣。

  • Personally, I can totally relate with Tom, and I'm guessing at least some of you probably can too.

    我個人完全感同身受,我猜你們之中的某些人也可以。

  • And the question is, why did Tom not stick with his good new habits?

    問題在於,為何 Tom 沒有持續他的好習慣?

  • And the main reason why Tom, and why most people don't stick with good new positive habits, is because they don't possess the most important habit, which is something called "commitment."

    Tom 和大多數人最主要不能守住好習慣的原因在於,他們沒有至關重要的那個習慣,也就是「承諾」。

  • And the definition of commitment is an engagement or obligation that restricts freedom of action.

    承諾的的定義是:約定或限制意志行為的義務。

  • So that means you no longer have the freedom to do anything else once you commit to something.

    一旦你承諾某件事,你就不再有做其他事情的自由。

  • So you might be asking yourself, "Well, how do I really get this commitment thing?"

    你可能會問自己:「那我要怎麼真的做到承諾?」

  • And there honestly isn't a really simple answer to this, but the best answer that I can give you is that you have to just think long and hard about what you are committing to.

    其實沒有簡單的答案,我能給你最好答案是,你要仔細思考你要承諾的東西。

  • I'll give you an example.

    給你個例子吧!

  • Let's say you currently lift weights two times per month.

    你現在一個月會舉重兩次。

  • And you tell yourself that you want to start to work out more.

    你告訴自己,你想要更努力健身。

  • Most people in this situation will say, "I am going to go to the gym three times per week, from now on."

    大部份的人都會告訴自己:「從現在起,我每週要去健身房三次。」

  • Now, this may not seem like a ton, but this is actually a 600 percent increase from going to the gym two times per month, to 12 times per month.

    聽起來也許沒有很多,但實際上你從一個月去健身房兩次,變成一個月去十二次,足足已是六倍的量。

  • And, it's this drastic change that makes it really hard to stay committed.

    這麼大的轉變會讓你很難守住承諾。

  • So, this is what I would recommend.

    所以以下是我的建議。

  • Instead of going to the gym three times per week, try going to the gym once every week, for the next three months, and then once that becomes easy, and it feels like it's just a part of your normal day life, like brushing your teeth, then go to the gym two times per week, and then do that for three months.

    不要一個禮拜去三次健身房,一週去一次就好。接下來的三個月,當這件事變容易、跟刷牙一樣日常時,就一週去兩次健身房,連續做三個月。

  • Then three times, and four times, and so on and so forth.

    接著一週三次、一週四次,一步一步來。

  • And, I would also recommend just focusing on one new habit at a time.

    我也建議一次專注在一個新的興趣就好。

  • You can try doing a few at a time, but usually you will end up exactly like Tom.

    你也可以一次嘗試好幾樣,但通常容易變得像 Tom 一樣。

  • But if you really do feel like you can take on more, then go for it.

    但如果你覺得能承擔更多,就試試吧!

  • But the key thing here, is to always stay committed.

    但重點就在於,要守住承諾。

  • It's really important to never ever go back on your commitments.

    不要背叛承諾是很重要的。

  • Because, if you cannot honor your commitments, you simply won't get to where you want to go in life.

    因為如果你不能達成承諾,你就不會有你想要的人生。

  • Creating great habits is kind of like building a house.

    建立好習慣就像在蓋房子。

  • Imagine that all of your habits are like bricks that you stack on top of one another, and the commitment is like the glue that holds all the bricks in place.

    想像你的習慣都是磚塊,要一個堆在一個上面,而承諾就像膠水,固定所有磚塊。

  • It's kind of fun, and easy, in a way, to just kind of stack up bricks on top of one another.

    建立習慣很好玩也蠻簡單的,就像把磚塊堆疊起來一樣。

  • And then we imagine this amazing-looking house that we are going to build.

    我們可以想像蓋好的房子會有多好看。

  • But, without the glue, without the cement, that house will inevitably fall, and you will probably end up exactly where you left off.

    但如果沒有膠水、沒有水泥,房子終究會垮,你很可能會回到最開始的地方。

  • And this is something that I personally have done so many times in my past.

    這是我個人過去很常做的事。

  • So take your time, and be precise with every single brick, and eventually you will build that amazing looking house that will withstand a lifetime.

    慢慢來,每塊磚頭都放得精準,最後你會有一棟很棒的房子,可以陪你一輩子。

  • Check out my last video about the real truth about success, and I'll see you there.

    可以去看看我上支關於成功的真相的影片,我們那裡見囉!

I'm gonna share with you the most important habit that you could ever learn in your life, and no, it's not something like meditate, exercise, or get up early.

我要和你分享一個你此生會學到的最重要的習慣,不是像冥想、運動、或早起之類的。
