做自己 應(yīng)該為自己感到驕傲的6個(gè)理由.

　　現(xiàn)在的人很多都會自卑，會對自己感覺到不滿意。其實(shí)做自己，不應(yīng)該這樣，對自己滿意，為自己感到驕傲才是善待自己。

　　You have to be a smaller size. You have to burn more fat. You have to tighten your butt, firmyour abs, fit into those skinny jeans, and do it all in 3 weeks! That just sucks。

　　你得穿更小尺碼的衣服，你得燃燒更多的脂肪。為了在3個(gè)星期內(nèi)能夠穿上緊身牛仔褲，你咬牙拼命減肥收臀緊腹?

　　If you’re tired of hearing all of this, and hearing it over and over again, maybe you need tostand your ground, rebel, and go against the tide. You are so much more than just a size or anumber, but living in a culture that’s beauty- and body- image-obsessed isn’t easy. In fact, it’sdownright painful, especially if you’re not a size 2.

　　如果你已經(jīng)厭倦一而再再而三聽到這些，或許是時(shí)候站起來反抗了。你是個(gè)大活人，憑什么用身材尺碼來評判你?但是，生活在這個(gè)以貌取人、不惜一切追求美麗的社會里，也確實(shí)不容易。對于體型不完美的人來說，更加悲催。

　　Most of us weren’t even born that small! If you’re tired of feeling bad, especially around thistime of year when the weather’s warming up and everyone is talking bikinis maybe you do needa new look, but this one should have nothing to do with your weight, size or shape。

　　更何況，很多人生來就是大尺碼啊!可是你又不希望心情總是這么糟糕，尤其是現(xiàn)在天氣漸漸變熱，大家都在討論穿什么樣的比基尼，所以你也想改變一下形象——但是，這并不意味著你必須改變體重、尺碼或體型哦。

　　This look takes cultivating what’s on the inside. It means being fearless about who you areboth inside and out. It means standing up and screaming at the top of your lungs, “I’m notgoing to drop a jean size to be acceptable and valued, I’m actually perfect just the way I am!”

　　改變也可以是指內(nèi)在氣質(zhì)的培養(yǎng)。也就是說，你得學(xué)會從里而外地接受自己，你得站起來大聲宣布“我才不要為了穿上緊身牛仔褲去減肥，我喜歡自己現(xiàn)在的樣子!”

　　Here’s a few tips on how to begin:

　　下面就告訴你該如何去做：

　　1. Know your heart

　　了解自己的內(nèi)心

　　We’re paying more attention to external issues than we are to our hearts. That’s why peopleare dying out there: if we spent half as much time noticing and tending to our hearts, we wouldbe a lot healthier emotionally. Think about how much time the fashion industry, the foodindustry and the cosmetic industry pay to convince you that you’re not OK, and most peoplebuy into it, hook, line, and sinker. How do I know? Because I buy it way too often as well.Invest in your heart—know your value and change your world。

　　我們對外在的關(guān)注總是多于對內(nèi)心的呵護(hù)。所以很多人都會在這個(gè)癥結(jié)上摔跟頭。如果我們勻出一半精力關(guān)注并呵護(hù)我們的內(nèi)心的話，我們的心理要健康得多。想想時(shí)尚圈、食品業(yè)及化妝業(yè)花了多大精力讓你覺得自己“很遜”來著?可還是有很多人上鉤——咬鉤、上線、中招。我是怎么知道的?因?yàn)槲乙采线^很多次當(dāng)啊!所以，還是投資自己的內(nèi)心吧——去了解你的價(jià)值，然后作出改變。

　　2. Cultivate it

　　修養(yǎng)身心

　　How do you tend to your heart? By paying attention to what’s happening to it as the losses oflife unfold. By feeding it with good kind things. By spending time with yourself and learningwho you are and what your strengths are。

　　你將怎樣呵護(hù)內(nèi)心呢?當(dāng)在生活中吃虧時(shí)，請關(guān)注內(nèi)心的感受吧;請用美好來澆灌它吧;請花時(shí)間跟自己相處、了解自己并發(fā)掘自己的優(yōu)點(diǎn)吧。

　　3. Be Fearless

　　勇敢無畏

　　Find your strengths and you’ll become fearless. Utilize the gifts you’ve been given, and impactyour world with them. Be humble. Be a friend. Be generous. Give your heart away, and leadothers。

　　當(dāng)發(fā)現(xiàn)自己的優(yōu)點(diǎn)時(shí)，你會變得勇敢無懼。請利用你的天分好好改變自己的生活。要謙遜，要友善，要大方，要用自己的內(nèi)心感染他人。

　　4. Love strong

　　愛堅(jiān)不可摧

　　Pay attention to the one thing that’s most important in your life: those you love. Don’t let yourconcern for your size, your weight or your body image rob you of life. Don’t let it steal timeaway from those you love because you’re so preoccupied with all that mess. Risk. Step out. Saygood-bye to the old way and dare to try something new. You’ll feel so much better。

　　關(guān)注你生活中最重要的——那些你所愛的。別讓對身材體重的煩惱侵吞你的生活，別讓它霸占你寶貴的時(shí)間，別為這些煩惱把一切搞得亂七八糟?！芪ｋU(xiǎn)，趕緊跳出來吧!跟舊的生活方式說再見，嘗試一些新的東西吧。你會感覺好很多!

　　5. Be gratul

　　心懷感恩

　　It’s hard to be gratul for something you loathe. My clients with eating disorders and bodyimage concerns can’t generally find one thing to like about their physical appearance, but Ichallenge them to risk looking beyond what they see and begin to cultivate an attitude ofgratulness for what their physical body allows them to do. Hold a child. Run a marathon. Writea poem. Play an instrument. Touch a loved one. Start small, but start somewhere。

　　討厭的人和事物，又怎么會感恩呢?我的客戶飲食失調(diào)、為身材苦惱，對自己的外貌沒有一處不討厭，但是我要求他們試試換個(gè)角度看待自己，盡可能以感恩的心態(tài)對待自己的外貌。試著抱抱小孩，跑一場馬拉松，寫一首小詩，學(xué)一門樂器或撫慰所愛的人，隨時(shí)從小處做起。

　　6. Stop Comparing

　　停止攀比

　　Don’t look at the girl at the gym, the guy on the magazine or the hot chick at the beach tojudge yourself. Start thinking about your strengths, your attributes. If you feed yourself asteady diet of garbage, that’s how you’re going to feel—like garbage。

　　別總是拿自己跟健身館女孩、雜志模特或沙灘女郎作比較。多想想自己的優(yōu)點(diǎn)和氣質(zhì)。要是你總是吃垃圾食品，你自己也會不知不覺覺得自己檔次很低。

　　At the end of the day, only one thing is necessary to revolt against the societal norms thatdemand we be thin to be valued: choice. The choice to ignore the cultural mandates and setthe world on fire just as you are. A choice to live, really live a full and abundant life whereyou’re content with who you are, not what you look like. Go get ‘em!

　　最后，我們對抗社會上“苗條即美貌”偏見的辦法就是——做出選擇。選擇無視社會偏見，走自己的路，讓別人犯傻去吧!選擇用心經(jīng)營豐富多姿的生活，為自己感到驕傲，不再為相貌煩惱。拿出行動來吧!
