5 – Stop Eating Out
5 –不要外出吃飯

Eating out is the biggest waste of money. Every so often it’s nice to treat yourself, but eating out for every meal is the quickest way to drain your bank account. Learn how to cook at least a handful of foods you enjoy: It’ll save you money, keep you healthier, and occasionally impress people.
外出吃飯是最浪費(fèi)錢的。你覺得這是對你自己很好的待遇,但外出吃飯卻是讓你用完自己積蓄最快的方式。至少學(xué)著怎么烹調(diào)一些你自己喜歡的食物:那不僅可以省錢,還可以讓你更健康,偶爾還能讓別人眼前一亮。

6 – Stop Being Lazy
6 –不要再懶惰

Lazy people are annoying – it’s like pulling teeth getting them to do anything. If I can’t do something as simple as going to a movie with you without having to factor in an hour of convincing you to get your lazy butt out of bed, I’d rather go alone. People have enough trouble motivating themselves; don’t make your friends and family waste their valuable energy motivating you as well.
懶人是很惱人的——想讓他們做點(diǎn)事情簡直比登天還難。如果我連像自己看電影這種再平常不過的事都做不到,比起我還用了一個小時去勸你跟我一起去看電影,而你仍舊不愿意起床,那我寧愿一個人去。人們總是很難激勵自己;更不要讓你的朋友和家人浪費(fèi)他們寶貴的精力去激勵你。

7 – Stop Complaining
7 –停止抱怨

We all have problems, and sometimes we need to vent to someone. That’s acceptable, but pay attention to how often you’re venting. We all love helping our friends and family, but when all you get from someone is negativity, it’s easier to cut them off than help, especially if they’re always complaining about the same things.
我們都會遇到問題,有時候我們需要向別人傾訴。那是可以接受的,但是要注意你傾訴的頻率。我們都喜歡幫助我們的朋友跟家人,但是如果你從別人那里聽到的全是悲觀的東西,那打斷他們的抱怨比幫助他們要簡單得多,尤其是他們總是在抱怨同樣的事情的時候。

8 – Stop Being Selfish
8– 不要那么自私

If you only think about yourself, you’ll soon find yourself by yourself. Stop for a minute and think about how your actions affect other people – did you take the last cup of coffee from the break room? Refill it! Do you live with others? Don’t drink out the milk carton. We share this world 100% of the time, so every action you take can affect other people.
如果你以自我為中心,你就只會看到你自己。用一分鐘來想想你的行為是怎么影響別人的—你有沒有把休息室里的最后一杯咖啡喝掉了?再把它裝滿!你是不是跟別人住的?別把盒子里的牛奶喝光。所有的時間里,我們都在同時分享著這個世界,所以你的每一種行為都能影響到其他人。
