Meaning do I look ok?

這代表我看起來還行嗎?

Hey, it’s Marie Forleo. And you are watching Marie TV.

嘿，我是Marie Forleo，你現在正在收看Marie頻道

The place to be to create the business and the life that you love.

一個建造你愛的事業和生活的地方

And today, it’s Q&A Tuesday.

今天是星期二的問答時間

Today’s question comes from Sia and she writes:

今天的問題來自Sia，她寫說：

Hey Marie, there’s a saying: the early bird catches the worm, but I have to admit I have never been fond of mornings.

嘿Marie，俗話說：早起的鳥兒有蟲吃，但我必須要承認我從來沒有喜歡過早晨

Even as a child, I loved my sleep and my most energetic hours are from 10AM to 1PM or 8PM to 10PM at night.

即使是小時候，我喜歡睡覺，我最有活力的時間是從早上十點到下午一點，或是晚上八點到晚上十點

I sometimes feel judged and labeled as lazy by my husband and others because I’m not an early bird.

我有時候會覺得被我先生或是其他人評斷與貼上懶人標籤，因為我不是個早鳥

I feel late risers get a bad rap and that I can be just as or even more productive than a person that gets up early.

我感覺到晚起的人會受到不好的責罵，但我也能夠和早起的人有一樣的生產力，甚至比他們更多

What do you think? Can this night owl catch a hefty mouse instead of a measly worm?

你怎麼想呢?夜晚的貓頭鷹可以抓到肥美的老鼠而不是可憐的蟲子嗎?

Thanks Sia.

謝謝妳，Sia敬上

Sia, this is such a divisive topic.

Sia，這真是一個不協調的主題

That’s probably because we’ve all been conditioned to think that the only route of success is being an early riser.

這也可能是因為我們習慣認為成功唯一的道路就是成為一個早起的人

And, you know, I will admit, late risers do get a bad rap but here’s the thing:

嗯，妳知道的，我也會承認，晚起的人會受到不好的責罵，但是：

each human being comes with their own chronotype, their own sleep preference,

每個人都有自己的生理睡眠型態、他們的睡眠偏好

meaning we come pre-programmed to either be an early bird or a night owl.

這代表我們早就被安排是早鳥或是夜貓子

Now can you change this?

現在妳可以改變它嗎?

In theory, yes you can, but it is very very difficult to change your natural body clock.

理論而言，妳可以的，但要改變妳天生的生理時鐘是非常、非常困難的

And the world does have an undeniable bias for morning people.

而且這個世界對於早鳥有不可否認的偏見

I mean, in stock photos, there’re always the ones having a great time like this,

我的意思是，在以下的照片裡，他們總是像擁有美好的時光，像這樣：

and night owls always look like this.

而夜貓子通常看起來像這樣：

Night owls like yourself may always feel like you’re kind of at war with the world.

像妳一樣的夜貓子通常會覺得自己總是在和世界打仗

I mean that’s because school schedules and work schedules often demand early starts and that can create something called social jet lag.

我的意思是因為學校和工作的時間表通常都需要非常早開始，而這會造成一些所謂的社會時差

You’re always feeling sleep deprived and you’re always feeling tired because you’re trying to adjust to a schedule that’s not natural to you.

妳總是感到睡眠被剝奪，妳也總是覺得特別疲倦因為妳試著調整到對妳而言不自然的時間表

But here is the bottom line: it doesn’t matter whether you’re an early bird or a night owl.

但這裡有一個結果：無論妳是早鳥還是夜貓子都沒關係

You can be productive and happy no matter what, and they both have their advantages and their disadvantages.

無論如何，妳都可以是有生產力而且開心的，當早鳥跟夜貓子都各有利與弊

There are loads of productive night owls and a few famous ones include president Obama, Bob Dylan and French novelist George Sand.

這裡有許多多產的夜貓子例子，一些有名的包括歐巴馬總統、美國政治家Bob Dylan、法國小說家George Sand

And great early birds like Ben Franklin, Condoleezza Rice, and Ernest Hemingway.

厲害的早鳥像是美國政治家Ben Franklin、前美國國務院國務卿Condoleezza Rice、《老人與海》作者Ernest Hemingway

So here’s the deal Sia, this whole conversation comes down to respect.

所以，事情是這樣的Sia，這整個討論歸結為尊重

You have to respect your own body clock and you got to respect others.

妳必須要尊重自己的生理時鐘，妳也需要尊重其他人的

So when it comes to work and getting things done, really honor your most productive time, and at the same time, honor those people around you.

所以當談到工作或是完成事情時，真正的尊重妳最有產能的時間，而同時，尊重在身邊的人

Now it’s true that as a night owl you’re going to have to work a little bit harder and be a little more accommodating

現在，這是事實，當妳是個夜貓子時，妳需要工作的更認真，而且更親切一些

but that should just give you more fuel to kick some major ass and prove your husband and whoever else thinks you’re lazy dead worm.

但這給妳更多的力量去推翻那些否定妳的人，向妳的先生和那些覺得妳是懶蟲的人證明

You know what, speaking of your husband, first thing you gotta do is show him this video, and next thing you gotta do is sing him this song.

妳知道嗎，告訴妳先生，第一件妳要做的事情就是給他看這部影片，第二件妳要做的事就是唱這首歌給他聽

So Sia, let's wrap this up with the twitterable

所以Sia，讓我們用這則推特文來總結吧

No human believes that any other human has a right to be in bed when he himself is up. Robert S. Lynd.

只要我醒了，別人就沒有賴床的權利，Robert S. Lynd說

Now I would love to hear from you.

現在，我想要聽聽你們的想法

So, late owls, have you ever tried to change your nature or have you embrace how you are?

所以，夜貓子們，你們有曾經試著改變過原本的自己嗎?或是你們選擇接受自己呢?

Do you have any great tricks to share with the rest of us?

你有任何好的絕竅可以跟我們其他人分享嗎?

And for all you early birds, what’s your experience like with the night owls?

而所有早鳥們，你的的夜貓子經驗如何呢?

Do you have any advice to share with how you honor and respect the differences?

你們有任何尊重差異的建議可以分享給我們嗎?
