我有一個夢想:如何在10分鐘內發現你的人生目標
This article will show you how to discover your life’s purpose in the next 10 minutes, but let me begin by convincing you that you have a purpose. It was Mike Murdock who said, “Everything created solves a problem.” Your eyes see; your ears hear; your nose smells.
這篇文章將告訴你如何在10分鐘內發現你的人生目標。但是首先，我想讓你相信，你是爲了某個目標而存在的。麥克-默多克說過，“任何創造出來的東西都是爲了解決一個問題。”你的眼睛解決了看的問題，你的耳朵解決了聽的問題，你的鼻子解決了聞的問題。Everything Created Solves a Problem
任何創造出來的東西都是爲了解決一個問題There’s a specific problem that you were created to solve, and you will only succeed if you discover that problem and solve it. Finding this problem is discovering your purpose, solving this problem is accomplishing your purpose.
你的存在一定是爲了解決某個特定的問題。而只有當你發現了這個問題，並解決了這個問題，你纔會獲得成功。發現這個問題的方法就是發現你的人生目標，解決這個問題的方法就是完成你的人生目標。
How do you discover the problem you were created to solve?
如何發現自己要解決的問題是什麼呢？I’m glad you asked; I would like to show you! I want you to answer the questions below. These questions are “sign post” on the path to discovering your purpose today.
我很高興你能這麼問。我來告訴你要如何做！我希望你回答下面的這些問題。這些問題是你在今天發現自己人生目標的旅途上的“標杆”。1. What do you love to do? I’ve noticed that people who are successful, do things they love to do. Tiger Woods loves to play golf, Donald Trump loves real estate, Tony Robbins loves to motivate. Your purpose is related to what you love to do. Write down the activities that you love. Maybe you love to write, maybe you love to talk, maybe you love reading, maybe you love exercising, maybe you love listening to others, maybe you love playing sports, maybe you love selling things. Whatever you love, write it down. Write down as many things as you love.
1.你喜歡做什麼？我發現成功人士都做着自己喜歡做的事。老虎伍茲喜歡打高爾夫，唐納德-特朗普喜歡房地產，託尼-羅賓斯喜歡激勵別人。你的目標與你喜歡做的事有關。把你喜歡的活動寫下來，也許你喜歡寫作，喜歡聊天，喜歡閱讀，喜歡練習，喜歡聆聽，喜歡運動，喜歡銷售。無論你喜歡做什麼，把它寫下來，越多越好。2. What do you notice?A hairdresser notices someone’s hair is out of place, a designer notices a problem with your outfit, a mechanic hears something wrong with the car, a singer notices when someone’s voice is out of pitch, a speaker notices a boring speech. What do you notice? What grabs your attention? Is it relationships, cars, people? Whatever it is, write it down.
2.我注意到了什麼？髮型師會注意到別人的髮型不合適，設計師會注意到你的外套有問題，機械師會聽出車子有毛病，歌手會注意到有沒有走音，演講者會注意到講話無不無聊。你會注意什麼呢？什麼會吸引你的注意力呢？人際關係？車子？還是人？無論是什麼，寫下來。3. What would you do for free? What do you love to learn about? What do you love to talk about? What would you regret never trying? Is it cooking, sports, teaching…write down the answers to these questions.
3.什麼事你會免費去做？什麼東西你會樂意去學習？你喜歡討論什麼話題？什麼事情如果不去嘗試就會後悔？是烹飪、運動、教學......把這些問題的答案寫下來。4. If I was able to look in your library, what would I find?If I found 200 books on “real estate,” then maybe that’s your passion, if I found 300 car magazines, then you should probably be doing something related to cars.…if you have a library, write down the types of books we would find in your library, or the kinds of books that you wish were in your library.
4.如果我到你的個人藏書室去看看，我會看到些什麼？如果我看到200本關於“房地產”的書，那麼也許這就是你的興趣所在；如果我找到300本汽車雜誌，那麼你也許應該做一些與汽車相關的事情。如果你有自己的藏書室的話，把別人能發現的書的種類寫下來，或者你希望在書房裏放些什麼書。5. What sparks your creativity? What do you find easy? What are you good at? What makes you happy?Is it painting, designing, building, speaking, writing; think about it, then write it down.
5.什麼會激發你的創造力？什麼讓你覺得很容易？什麼是你擅長的？什麼能讓你感到快樂？是繪畫、設計、建築、演講、寫作嗎？好好想一想，把答案寫下來。Take a moment and review the answers to the questions you’ve just answered. What are some commonalities?
花一點時間看看自己寫下的答案。有沒有什麼共同點？Think about some ways that individuals with these specific talents and passions could be successful…, take the next two to five minutes and write down as many career, job or business opportunities that someone with your passions would pursue. When you’re done with the list, take a moment to review it.
想想那些擁有特定的天賦和熱情的人是如何成功的。現在，再花2-5分鐘時間，儘可能多地寫下與你類似的人可以去嘗試的任何一個職業、工作或創業機會。如果這些問題都回答好了，那就再回顧一下。Finally, the moment we’ve all been waiting for, circle the item on the list that you feel the most passionate about, the one that seems the most enticing to you, the one that you could see yourself doing forever, the one that deep down inside you believe you can do, the one that you would regret never trying. Circle it now.
最後，萬衆期待的時刻終於來了。在你的答題紙上，用圓圈把你最感興趣、你最喜歡、你最想要去做、如果不去做就會後悔一輩子的項目一一標出來。Congratulations, you’ve just discovered your purpose!
恭喜你，你已經找到了你的人生目標！
