Life Lessons About Success Self Improvement

我們生命中的每一刻都是一種經驗。我們可以選擇從中學習到什麼,並讓他們成為過去。

Every moment in our life is an experience. We can either choose to learn something from them or let them pass us by.

在過去的一年我試著對以下做出一些努力:

Over the past year I have made a conscious effort to:

  • Stay curious (保持好奇)
  • See the good(看到好的一面)

The reason? 原因是?

經驗幫助我們為生命發展一個更好的觀點,而且我相信我們的成功是藉由我們的觀點與決心達成的。

Experiences help us develop a better perspective on life and I believe it is our perspective that determines our future success.

看到好的一面以及保持好奇心可以挑戰自我去從每一次的經驗中學習。我們會以我們從沒有預料過的方式成長。適應這樣的心態同時運作打造兩間公司幫助了我加強我的觀點。

When seeing the good and staying curious, it will challenge us to learn from each experience. We will grow in ways we never thought possible. Adopting this mentality while working on building two companies has enhanced my perspective.

以下是我所學習到的生命課程:

Below are the life lessons I have learned thus far:
