Life is full of surprises. 生活充滿了驚奇。Sometimes these surprises are pleasant and other times we can’t help but feel a little anxious about what the future holds.Which brings us to the importance of feeling confident, secure, and powerful — even in the face of uncertainty. 有時(shí)這些驚奇是令人愉快的，有時(shí)他們會(huì)使我們則禁不住對(duì)未來(lái)是什么樣而感到擔(dān)憂。這些驚奇會(huì)讓我們認(rèn)識(shí)到在即使面對(duì)不確定因素是也能感到自信，安全和權(quán)力的重要性。Because no matter who you are, what you do for a living, or where you live, you’re always going to face moments of uncertainty (unless you’re psychic and can tell the future, of course). But seriously, these moments of uncertainty might happen in any aspect of your life: at work, in business, or in your relationships, for instance. 因?yàn)椴还苣闶钦l(shuí)，做什么工作，或者你在哪居住，你總會(huì)面對(duì)一些動(dòng)蕩時(shí)刻（當(dāng)然，除非你是巫師可以預(yù)知未來(lái)），但是嚴(yán)肅來(lái)講，這些動(dòng)蕩時(shí)刻可能會(huì)發(fā)生在你生活的每一個(gè)方面，比如工作，生意，或者愛(ài)情。And often, what differentiates super-successful and happy people from those who are ridden with anxiety and depression is the ability to sustain power and confidence, even in the face of uncertainty. 且通常，那些超成功幸福的人與那些充滿焦慮，沮喪的人的區(qū)別是他們有即使面對(duì)動(dòng)蕩也可以保持力量和自信的能力。So here are 4 ways to stay confident, courageous, and happy, even when you’re not quite sure exactly how your desired projects – in love, work, and life – will play out in the short term: 當(dāng)你對(duì)愛(ài)情，工作和生活在短期內(nèi)不知道到底該怎么辦時(shí)，如下的四個(gè)絕招可以幫你保持自信，勇敢和幸福。

1 – Stay Rationally Optimistic.

1-保持理性樂(lè)觀

When we humans think and feel rationally positive, our brains actually perform better. That’s because positive mental states produce higher levels of creativity, productivity, and performance. 我們?nèi)祟惱硇缘胤e極地去思考和感受時(shí)，我們的大腦會(huì)運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)得更好。那是因?yàn)榉e極的精神狀態(tài)可以更加有創(chuàng)造力，生產(chǎn)力和執(zhí)行力。Which means: if you’re ever unsure about a project’s progress or future outcome, staying rationally positive (not delusional and positive) might just foster the precise creative insight you need to ensure your ultimate success. Not to mention that it’s a total confidence booster in moments of uncertainty (and rightfully so)! 那就意味著：如果你對(duì)一個(gè)項(xiàng)目的進(jìn)展或未來(lái)的結(jié)果感到不確定時(shí)，理性地保持積極（不是妄想和積極）可以促使你產(chǎn)生精確的創(chuàng)造性的洞察力，而這個(gè)洞察力可以確保你最終成功。不要提這完全是自信促使你在動(dòng)蕩時(shí)刻成功（實(shí)際上就是）

2 – Define Your Plans A, B, C, and D. #2---給你的A,B,C,D計(jì)劃下定義

Any time you’re going for a goal in life, it’s good to map out several potential paths to get there. This way you know you’ll somehow arrive at your desired point.無(wú)論什么時(shí)候你在為人生的目標(biāo)奮斗時(shí)，最好計(jì)劃出幾個(gè)潛在的路線。這樣你會(huì)知道無(wú)論如何你都能夠達(dá)到你的目標(biāo)。Many times having only one potential path toward a goal can leave us anxious or nervous about that path. After all, what if it doesn’t happen as expected?! But imagine how confidentyou’d feel if you knew that you had also mapped out several other paths toward that same outcome? Then you could put your ALL into plans A, B, C, and D…in full knowing that you’ll arrive.

許多時(shí)候只有一條通往成功的路會(huì)讓我們緊張或焦慮。畢竟，萬(wàn)一事情不是自己預(yù)想的那樣那該怎么辦呢？但是可以想象如果你有多條通往同一個(gè)目標(biāo)的路你該感到多么的自信？接著你可以投入一切到你的A,B,C,D計(jì)劃中------因?yàn)槟阒滥憧隙〞?huì)成功的。

3 – Realize Once And For All: It’s All Good. #3---完全認(rèn)識(shí)到：一切安好

How many times has something happened that looked “bad” at the time and then later when you looked back on it you were thrilled that things turned out the way they did? It’s time to realize once and for all that this universe or world supports you and wants you to succeed! 多少次一些看起來(lái)“糟糕”的事，結(jié)果當(dāng)你回顧此事的時(shí)候，發(fā)現(xiàn)不過(guò)是虛驚一場(chǎng)？是時(shí)候徹底認(rèn)識(shí)到整個(gè)宇宙或世界都支持你并希望你成功。The truth is that many times we simply don’t know the best way to achieve our desired outcomes, so we get angry or sad when things don’t work out the way we think they should…only to later realize that it all worked out for our own happiness, joy, success, and benefit. We just didn’t really know any better at the time…we didn’t realize we should becelebrating! 事實(shí)是許多時(shí)候我們只是不知道達(dá)成目標(biāo)的最好方式，所以當(dāng)事情不是按照我們想象的方式進(jìn)行時(shí)我們會(huì)生氣悲傷---結(jié)果后來(lái)我們意識(shí)到這樣都是為了我們自己的幸福，喜悅，成功和利益。只是那個(gè)時(shí)候我們沒(méi)有更好地理解---那時(shí)沒(méi)意識(shí)到我們應(yīng)該慶祝而已。Now imagine how confident you’d feel in ‘uncertain moments’ if you just went with the flow because you ‘spiritually’ knew that everything was actually working in your favor…even if it didn’t seem entirely obvious to you at that particular moment in time…Now THAT’S freedom! 現(xiàn)在可以想象，如果你“精神上”能夠感受到一切都會(huì)以有利于我的方式進(jìn)行---即使它當(dāng)時(shí)并沒(méi)有及時(shí)完全地明顯，那你在“動(dòng)蕩時(shí)刻”會(huì)感到多么的自信?，F(xiàn)在那就是自由。

4 – Do Your Best – Don’t Stress The Rest. #4---竭盡全力---勿壓力過(guò)大

One of the best ways to stay confident in the face of uncertainty is simply to be secure in knowing that you’ve done your best and finally learn to let go of the things you can’t control.面對(duì)動(dòng)蕩，保持自信的最好方式之一就是確定你已經(jīng)竭盡全力，并最終學(xué)著放棄那些你無(wú)法控制的東西。One of the biggest mistakes so many people make is that they give it their all at work, in love, or in anything they think is important – and then they fully STRESS until they know for sure whether their end results will come through as they want them to. (Think school applications, business deals, you name it…it never ends). 許多人都在犯的最大的錯(cuò)誤之一就是把一切都放在工作，愛(ài)情或任何他們認(rèn)為是重要的事情上---那么他們會(huì)感到完全地壓力重重，直到他們確切地知道結(jié)果如他們所愿（如需要學(xué)校應(yīng)用，生意談判等，無(wú)窮無(wú)盡的事情）Solution: when the ball is in your court play your best game, but once it’s in someone else’s court, be cool and stress-free. Refer to # 3 above if you need to!解決方案：球在你院的時(shí)候，盡情地玩你最愛(ài)玩的游戲，但是球一旦在別人的院子里，要保持鎮(zhèn)定，不要有壓力。如有需要參考#3
