There are times when you are going to do well, and times when you're going to fail. But neither the doing well, nor the failure is the measure of success. The measure of success is what you think about what you've done. Let me put that another way: The way to be happy is to like yourself and the way to like yourself is to do only things that make you proud.
There's that old joke, not very funny, that goes, “No matter where you go, there you are.” That's true. The person who you're with most in life is yourself and if you don't like yourself you're always with somebody you don't like.
有时候你会干得很漂亮,有时候你会失败,但二者都不是衡量成功的标准。衡量成功的标准是你自己对你的所为怎么看。让我换一句话说:让自己幸福的办法是喜欢你自己,喜欢自己的办法是只做让你自己感到骄傲的事情。
有一个老笑话,不是很好笑,它是这么说的:“无论你走到哪里,你都在那里。”这是真的。你一生中跟你在一起最多的人是你自己,如果你不喜欢你自己,那你就会总是跟你不喜欢的人在一起。
