Fear comes from the fact that you THINK you cannot act or will act incorrectly. But if you actually try, even though you’re scared as hell, you’ll often realize that these fears didn’t have any foundations. They can be blown away if you tell yourself you’ll just do it whatever happen. In many cases you’ll think that death is your worse case, but you have to realize you’re over-exagerating.
當你覺得你無法完成一件事或者將會搞砸一件事的時候，恐懼感就會產生。但是，假如你去嘗試，你常常會意識到那種恐懼其實是毫無依據的，盡管你當時害怕得要死。如果你對你自己說不管會發生什么事我就是要這樣做，恐懼就會消失的無影無蹤。許多情況下，你會覺得死亡是最件糟糕的事，但是你必須要意識到的是你有點夸大其詞了。
It’s crazy how much our brain can work in order to protect us against ourself. Imagine you’re in a plane, about to jump out of it to do some parachuting. You’ve never done that before. When you’re about to jump, the brain jumps in and start giving you every bit of information it has against parachuting because fear has a seed into you brain. But if you’ve been jumping out of airplanes for ages, let me tell you the brain simply doesn’t care anymore because it knows nothing will (generally) happen. This concept is the core idea of doing one thing that scares you every day.
為了保護我們自己，我們的大腦會不顧一切地讓我們去做事與愿違的事。想象一下，你在一架飛機中正準備跳傘，這時大腦會灌輸一些負面的信息讓你無法順利跳傘，那是因為恐懼像種子那樣扎根在我們的頭腦中。假如你此前有幾年的跳傘經歷的話，我可以告訴你，你的大腦不會有所顧忌，因為你知道不會有意外發生。這個概念是“每一天做一件你害怕的事”的核心理念。
When you push your limits, the number of fears you have start to decrease. With time you will start understanding that all those fears are just crap that your brain creates to protect you from the unknown but you’ll also know that this unknown is not THAT dangerous. Approaching girls on the street is something many guys are just going to freeze if they have to do it, but it is possible. It just takes time and effort. If you do it one step at a time you’ll realize that there’s nothing really dangerous about doing it.
當你將自己推向自己能力的極限的時候，讓你感到恐懼的事就會開始減少。久而久之你會漸漸領悟其實所有的恐懼都是你的大腦出于保護自己的本能而產生的，而且你也會領悟到那些未知的恐懼沒有你潛意識中認為的那樣危險。在街上慢慢接近女孩這個舉動會讓許多男孩手足無措，但這并不是無法辦到的事。只是要花費一點時間和工夫。如果你有計劃的一步步做一件事，你會發現其實所謂的危險也沒什么大不了的。
What is really interesting from doing this technique every day is that you experience a good amount of adrenaline through your body. It’s also really great to have done something you thought you couldn’t do. Doing this will make your life at least a thousand time better because there won’t be any barriers to stop you. You’ll get a better life, more respect from your peers, more control over yourself and will be able to share lots of experiences other might never thought about doing because they are too scared to follow the “Do one thing every day that scares you” mentality. But YOU ARE STRONG.
每天做這樣一件技術活的有趣之處就是你體內會產生大量的腎上腺素。而且假如你完成了原先你認為做不到的事，你會感覺非常棒。做這樣的事至少可以讓你現在的生活好上一千倍以上，因為不會再有阻止你的障礙了。你會過上更好的生活，獲得來自同行們的更多的尊敬，而且你能更好地控制你自己，能夠分享許多別人想都不敢想的經歷，因為他們太害怕了以至于不能夠追隨“每一天做一件你畏懼的事”。但是你很堅強。
If you do things you think shouldn’t be doing, sometimes you get opposite results: you get what you were looking for. Take this example: you put money into a saving account which gives you a poor return rate but you do so because you are “scared” of losing your money. You decide it’s time to apply your new mentality and take the money and start buying shares instead. Maybe for the first transactions you’ll have a bit of a rush/adrenaline going on because you aren’t sure of what’s going to happen, but then you are really proud of what you did. Even though you might have made mistakes, by doing what you were afraid of you removed a barrier you had. As time goes by, you learn how the market works and you’ll get better. You’ll might even make thousands of thousand by doing it. And now you’re REALLY happy because you got past what you were looking for: earning something with the money you had. What the real accomplishment is, is that you’ve shown to yourself you were able to get over a fear you had. Amazing.
如果你做一些你原本認為不應該做的事，有時你會得到相反的結果：你得到了你渴望的東西。舉個列子來說：你把錢放進了回報率很低的儲蓄賬戶，因為你害怕損失錢財。于是你覺得是時候要改變心態，把錢取出來轉而買進股票。也許在第一輪交易中你會莽撞行事，因為你不確定接下來會發生什么，但是接著你會對你所做的事感到非常自豪。既是你有可能會犯些錯誤，但你會漸漸明白市場是怎么運作的，之后你會越來越好。你也許甚至會成千上百次的去做這件事。現在你真正地感到幸福，因為你得到了你渴望已久的東西：用自己的錢去投資并獲得回報。真是太棒了。
Fear is the only thing that limits you from acting and YOU WANT TO ACT. Don’t let those fears control you for all your life, start showing them who’s the real boss here.
恐懼是唯一一件阻擾你去做你想要做的事的東西。不要讓這些恐懼控制你一生，讓它瞧瞧誰才是你命運的真正主人。
