美麗人生不會從天而降。你要懂得分配好自己的時間、精力、心思，向著自己的生活目標努力邁進，才可以成就美麗的人生。別讓自己再活在憂慮和失敗中，開始裝備自己，迎接成功和抒懷。實現美麗人生，你要周到而有創意地用好一週七天，每天24小時的時間，而不僅僅是做一天和尚敲一天鐘。根據自己的需要和作風進一步調整這些“秘訣”，今天就開始為自己打造美麗的人生吧！

S——Simplify。 A great life is the result of simplifying your life。 People often misinterpret what simplify means。 It’s not a way to remove work from your life。 When you focus on simplifying your life， you free up energy and time for the work that you enjoy and the purpose for which you are here。 In order to create a great life， you will have to make room for it in yours first。

化繁為簡。美麗人生源於對生活的簡化。人們往往會誤解簡化生活的意思，這不是要你放棄生活中所有的工作。當你集中精力簡化生活時，你就能把精力和時間釋放出來，從事你喜歡的工作，為目標奮鬥。要創造美好的人生，你得首先為自己騰點空間出來。

E——Effort。 A great life is the result of your best effort。 Creating a great life requires that you make some adjustments。 It may mean re-evaluating how you spend your time， or choosing to spend your money in a different way。 It may mean looking for new ways to spend your energy that coincide with your particular definition of a great life。 Life will reward your best effort。

盡心努力。美麗人生源於你的最大努力。創造美麗人生， 你需要做出一些調整，這意味著重新分配時間，或者用不同的方式花錢，也許意味著尋找新的方式把精力投放到能引領美麗人生的地方去。生活會給你的努力以獎賞。

C——Create Priorities。 A great life is the result of creating priorities。 It‘s easy to spend your days just responding to the next thing that gets your attention， instead of intentionally using the time， energy and money you have in a way that’s important to you。 Focus on removing the obstacles that get in the way of you making sure you are honoring your priorities。

理清主次。美麗人生源於懂得優先考慮重要的問題。只是去迴應接下來吸引你注意的事情很簡單：不用心考慮最重要的事情，你就是在浪費時間、精力和金錢。集中注意力掃除障礙，確保你能夠去做最重要的事情。

R——Reserves。 A great Life is the result of having reserves——reserves of things， time， space， energy， money。 With reserves， you acquire far more than you need — not 6 months living expenses， but 5 years worth； not 15 minutes of free time， but 1 day。 Reserves are important because they reduce the fear of consequences， and that allows you to make decisions based on what you really want instead of what the fear decides for you。

有備無患。美麗人生源於懂得為自己作些預留——預留 物品、時間、空間、精力和金錢。有了儲備，你可以得到更多——不是六個月的生活費，而是五年的；不是15分鐘的閒暇，而是一整天。儲備是很重要的，因為它能減少你對行動後果的顧慮，讓你按照自己真正想要的作決定，不讓擔憂左右抉擇。

E——Eliminate distractions。 A great life is the result of eliminating distractions。 Up to 75% of your mental energy can be tied up in things that are draining and distracting you。 Eliminating distractions can be a difficult concept to many people， since they haven‘t really considered that there is another way to live。 Look around at someone’s life you admire。 What do they do that you would like to incorporate into your own life？ Ask them how they did it。 Find ways to free up your mental energy for things that are more important to you。

專心行事。美麗人生源於心無旁騖。耗力分心的事會浪費掉你75%的精力。對很多人來說，清除雜念是個難以接受的概念，因為他們從來沒有想過生活原來還可以有另外一種方式。看看身邊令你羨慕的生活。他們的哪些做法是你想學習的呢？請教他們是怎樣做到的。想辦法把心思轉移到你認為重要的事情上。

T——Thoughts。 A great life is the result of controlling your thoughts so that you accept and allow for the possibility that it actually can happen to you！ Your belief in the outcome will directly dictate how successful you are。 Motivated people have specific goals and look for ways to achieve them。 Believing there is a solution to the same old problems you encounter year after year is vitally important to creating a life that you love。

堅持信念。美麗人生源於堅信凡事皆有可能。這種信念會直接決定你的勝算。積極的人有明確的目標，想方設法達成目標。要活得滿意稱心，有一點至關重要，就是要相信自己年復一年面對的老問題總有方法可以解決。

S——Start。 A great life is the result of starting。 There‘s the old saying everyone’s familiar with “a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step”。 In order to even move from the couch to the refrigerator， you have to start。 There‘s no better time to start than today。 Don’t wait for a raise， or until the kids get older， or the weather is better。 Today， right now， is the right day to start to take a step in the direction of your heart‘s desires。 It’s what you do TODAY that will make a difference in your life tomorrow。

立刻行動！美麗人生源於坐言起行。“千里之行始於足下” 這句古諺大家再熟悉不過了。小事諸如從沙發走到冰箱前，還是得先動起來。要行動，就得從今天開始。不要再等加薪了， 等孩子長大點了，或者等天氣好一點。今天，此刻就是起步邁向心頭目標的最好時機。今天你所做的會為你明日的生活帶來精彩的變化。
