　　If you truly feel strong, there's nothing to fear when others do well--in fact, there's a great reason to celebrate.

So if you sense your feelings of envy are diminishing, take it as a good sign that your resilience is improving.

　　如果你真的感受到内心的强大力量，那么在别人成功的时候也没有什么值得担忧的——实际上，这也是很值得庆贺的理由。真正的内心强大不会因他人的成功而感到对自己成就的削弱。所以当你感到自己的嫉妒感越来越少，那就可以确定自己正在不断地增强心智。

　　It's natural to feel good when you succeed and bad when you fail, but the mentally strong don't let the ups and downs of life interfere with their essential self-image. Next time life deals you a blow, then, notice how deeply it affects you. If you can shrug it off more easily without feeling too bad about yourself, congratulations! You've likely achieved a high measure of mental strength.

　　成功时喜悦，失败时悲伤是人之常情，但内心强大的人不会让这些生活的起伏影响基本的自我形象。所以下次当你感到很糟糕的时候，那就留意一下这些情绪对你影响的程度有多深。如果你能毫无顾忌地把它抛之脑后，那么恭喜你!你已经达到了很高程度的内心强大了。

　　10. You don't try to hide your weaknesses

　　10.你不会试图掩盖自己的弱点
