Stage 1- Get Clear on What You Were Born to Do- Chapter 1- Clarity is Your Superpower

第一步，搞清楚你天生要做什么。

Stage one, get clear on what you were born to do.

第一章，清晰就是你的超能力。

Chapter one, clarity is your superpower.

凌晨两点，我们家里一片寂静。

It was 02:00 in the morning and our house was completely quiet.

孩子们都睡在床上，妻子在我身边安睡。

The kids tucked in their beds, my wife sleeping peacefully next to me.

我呢？

Me?

我辗转反侧，痛苦不堪，疲惫至极。

I was restless, miserable, and exhausted.

睡不着，因为我自己就是恐怖片的主角，片名叫《失眠在烂城》。

Unable to sleep because I was the main character in my own horror movie, Sleepless in Suckville.

这种情况已经持续好几个月了。

This had been going on for months.

睡觉本该是自然而然的事。

Sleep should have been automatic.

我和斯泰西，带着三个三岁以下的孩子，正处于育儿最辛苦的阶段，哪怕只是坐下三十秒都可能直接睡着。

Stacey and I, with three kids under the age of three, were in that intense season of parenting where just sitting down for thirty seconds could put you in a coma.

可我却在盯着床头的时钟，看着时间一点点流逝，那简直就像我生命的倒计时。

Instead, I was watching my bedside clock countdown the hours, a visual clock of my life.

我满脑子想的都是，我离四十岁只有五年了。

And all I could think was, I'm five years away from 40.

我的事业毫无起色。

My career is going nowhere.

我浪费了太多生命。

I've wasted so much of my life.

看购物广告是我逃避痛苦的唯一方式。

Watching infomercials was my only escape from the agony I felt.

它们不仅让我分心，还让我感觉好受一点。

They not only distracted me, they also made me feel a little better.

事情本来可能更糟。

Things could be worse.

我可能也会是那些人中的一员。

I could be one of those guys.

但内心深处，我其实有点羡慕那些人。

Deep down though, I kind of envied those people.

至少他们看起来在做自己热爱的事情。

They at least looked like they were doing something they love.

表面上，我没什么可抱怨的。

On the surface, I had nothing to complain about.

从条件上看，我们在亚特兰大郊区的日子要什么有什么。

On paper, our life in the Atlanta suburbs was everything you could ask for.

我自己开的小生意也还过得去。

The little business I owned was doing okay.

我和妻子都喜欢这个社区，大家也都健健康康的。

My wife and I liked our neighborhood and everyone was healthy.

我们桌上不缺吃的，心里也挺感恩的。

There was food on our table and we were grateful.

那我为什么还这么低落呢？

So why was I so down?

为什么我睡不着觉？

Why couldn't I sleep?

因为我知道，我没有在做自己天生该做的事。

Because I knew I wasn't doing what I was born to do.

就算外表看起来一切都好，那也没用。

It didn't matter that everything looked good from the outside.

我的工作简直在榨干我的生命力。

My j o b was sucking the life out of me.

每天开始工作都特别难，但分心却特别容易。

It was extremely hard to get started every day, but super easy to get distracted.

我在卖自己根本不在乎的东西，而且一点也不想继续干下去了。

I was selling something I didn't care about and had no desire to keep doing it.

我知道还有更多可能，但我觉得被困住了。

I knew there was more, but I felt stuck.

对于像我这样乐观、精力充沛的人来说，这真是难以接受。

For an optimistic energetic guy like me, this was a bitter pill to swallow.

日复一日，我感觉自己像在跑步机上奔跑，停不下来，就算能停下来也不知道该往哪儿去。

Day after day after day, I felt like I was running on a treadmill with no way to stop and nowhere to go even if I could.

更糟的是，我还在悲伤中。

To make matters worse, I was also grieving.

我最近才意识到，我整个成年生活都在为之准备的职业，大家都说我是天生干这行的，其实并不是我梦想的工作。

I'd recently realized that the career I'd prepared for my entire adult life, the work everybody said I was born for, wasn't my dream job after all.

我参与过两次国会竞选，在州长手下工作过，按理说现在应该已经在竞选公职了。

I'd worked two congressional campaigns, served on a governor's staff, and was supposed to be running for public office by now.

但相反，我失去了热情。

Instead, I'd lost my passion.

在一个我已经失去信心的体制里，我觉得自己无法带来改变。

I didn't feel I could make a difference in a system I'd lost faith in.

政治里的那些勾心斗角，让我对长期从事公共服务失去了热情。

The politics of politics had killed my vision for a long career in public service.

面对这个死胡同，我真的很受打击。

Staring at this dead end shook me.

我以前以为政治就是我的全部。

I had thought politics was it.

但我的梦想破灭了，连带着我的希望也没了。

But my dream had died and taken my hope with it.

当我盯着电视屏幕时，我只有一个念头。

And as I stared at the TV screen, I only had one thought.

我真的不需要那些刀。

I really don't need those knives.

我需要的是一个新的方向。

What I need is a new direction.

被疑虑困扰着。

Plagued by doubt.

这场混乱中唯一的好处是，我的不安分一直推着我继续寻找有意义的工作。

The one good thing about this mess was that my restlessness constantly nudged me to keep searching for meaningful work.

开车去开会或者看那些电视购物节目的时候，我会在心里琢磨各种职业设想。

While driving to a meeting or watching one of those infomercials, I'd toss around different career scenarios.

作为一个有想法的人，我能轻松想象出十几条路可以走，其中一些看起来相当令人兴奋，包括广播行业。

Being an ideas guy, I could easily visualize a dozen paths to take, some of which seemed pretty exciting, including broadcasting.

在我允许自己稍微做做梦的时候，我会想起，我这辈子只要在观众面前做点什么，就会特别来劲，每一分钟都享受其中。

In the moments where I'd let myself dream a little, I'd remember that for my whole life, whenever I'd done anything in front of an audience, I would get the juice, loving every minute of it.

而且我觉得我有天赋。

And I thought I had the raw talent.

有时候我甚至会想象自己在演播室里，向有影响力的人提问有趣的话题。

Sometimes I'd actually visualize myself in a studio asking influential people questions about interesting topics.

但几乎立刻，内心的对话就开始了。

But almost immediately, the inner dialogue would start.

肯，醒醒吧。

Ken, reality check.

广播界没人认识你。

No one in broadcasting knows who you are.

你既没经验，也没学历。

You have zero experience and no degree.

而且你年纪太大了，进不了这行。

And you're too old to break into the industry.

醒醒吧，老兄。

Wake up, dude.

这个梦想成不了真。

This dream ain't happening.

你还是老老实实去上班吧，省得自己失望。

You should just go do your job and save yourself a lot of disappointment.

当我开始相信那个怀疑的声音时，痛苦的遗憾就涌了上来。

As I began to believe the voice of doubt, the painful regrets would kick in.

我浪费了太多生命。

I have wasted so much of my life.

要是当初一开始就选个更好的职业就好了。

If only I'd chosen a better career in the first place.

我本该在人生还有无限可能的时候去追求广播事业。

I should have pursued broadcasting when my whole life was ahead of me.

现在这个年纪，我根本不可能有自己的节目了。

There's no way I'll ever have a show of my own at this point.

感觉就像我的心和脑子一直在吵架。

It was like my heart and my head were in a constant argument.

一会儿我为各种可能性兴奋不已，一会儿又担心自己是不是疯了。

One moment, I would be excited about the possibilities, the next moment, sick with the thought I might be delusional.

就像坐过山车，上上下下，一个弯接一个弯，一个圈接一个圈。

It was like riding a roller coaster up and down, curve after curve, loop after loop.

我知道我不能再这样下去了。

I knew I couldn't keep doing this much longer.

我的心承受不住了。

My heart couldn't handle it.

我需要一些方向。

I needed some direction.

到了做决定的时候了。

Decision point.

那段失望和迷茫的日子，不只是职业上的问题。

That season of disappointment and confusion wasn't just a professional problem.

也是个人生活上的问题。

It was a personal one.

回头看，我明白我的危机是因为缺乏清晰的目标。

Looking back, I can see that my crisis was created by a lack of clarity.

我不清楚该往哪个方向走，什么样的工作最适合我，甚至就算想明白了，也不知道怎么才能得到那份理想的工作。

I wasn't clear on what direction to take, what particular work fit me best, or even how to get to my dream job if I did figure it out.

我比一碗彩虹糖里的变色龙还要困惑。

I was more confused than a chameleon in a bowl of Skittles.

你有没有经历过这种时候？

Have you been there?

那种既不开心又不知道该怎么办的痛苦处境。

That painful intersection between not happy and don't know what to do about it.

你现在是不是也处在这种状态？

Are you there now?

是不是担心已经太晚了？

Afraid it's too late?

是不是担心就算有机会，自己也没那个天赋？

Worried that even if you get a break, you don't have the talent?

如果是这样，你并不孤单。

If so, you are not alone.

2019年的一项在线调查，在疫情之前，显示将近65%的员工在考虑2020年离职。

A 2019 online survey, pre pandemic, revealed that almost sixty five percent of employees were thinking of leaving their jobs in 2020.

根据美国政府劳工统计，美国成年人平均在25岁到52岁之间，不只是换一两次工作，而是六次或更多。

According to the US government labor statistics, the average American adult doesn't just change jobs once or twice between ages 25 and 52, but six times or more.

其他研究显示，近50%的受访员工至少换过一次职业，而不仅仅是换工作。

Other research says that almost 50% of all workers surveyed have changed careers, not just jobs, at least once.

主要原因就是他们不开心。

The main reason, they were unhappy.

美国员工对工作失望透顶，十分之九的人告诉《哈佛商业评论》，如果做的工作更有意义，他们愿意接受降薪。

American employees feel so disappointed in their work that nine out of 10 told the Harvard Business Review they would take a pay cut if it meant doing more meaningful work.

换句话说，意义比金钱更重要。

In other words, meaning matters more than money.

不过好消息是，这本书会教你怎么从工作中既获得意义又赚到钱。

But the good news is this book will show you how to get meaning and money from your work.

别走开。

Stay tuned.

我分享了一些自己经历的痛苦，是想让你知道，我完全理解那种感受。

I've shared some of the misery in my story because I want you to know I get it.

全都懂。

All of it.

我做这一切、创办Ken Coleman节目的原因，就是因为我曾深陷在个人和职业的双重煎熬中。

The reason I do what I do, the reason the Ken Coleman show exists is because I have lived in this purgatory of personal and professional misery.

我永远不会忘记那种觉得自己一无是处的感觉，怀疑自己能不能有所作为，害怕就算找到了自己的路，也走不到头。

I won't ever forget feeling like I didn't have anything to offer, doubting I would ever make a difference, fearing that if I found my path, I wouldn't be able to complete it.

而现在，帮助别人摆脱这些感受、走出困境、向前迈进，去做出他们独特的贡献、实现他们的梦想，是我人生中最大的快乐之一。

And now it's one of the greatest joys of my life to help others overcome those feelings, get unstuck, and move forward to make their unique contribution and achieve their dreams.

那么，这段改变人生的旅程要从哪里开始呢？

So where does this massive life altering journey begin?

从清晰开始。

With clarity.

清晰就是你的钥匙。

Clarity is your key.

我这辈子到底该做什么？

What should I do with my life?

我现在的工作福利很好。

My current job has great benefits.

就算我不喜欢，也应该继续待着吗？

Should I stay put even though I don't love it?

我一直想尝试点不一样的，但这会不会太不现实了？

I've always wanted to try something different, but is it just too unrealistic?

通往有意义工作的路，始于想清楚，因为清晰是打开你未来的钥匙。

The path to meaningful work starts by getting clear because clarity is the key to unlocking your future.

什么是清晰？

What is clarity?

清晰就是确定、明确，或者说是容易看到或听到的东西。

It's the quality of being certain or definite or something that is easy to see or hear.

在我们这段旅程里，清晰意味着你清楚自己是谁、想做出什么贡献，以及为什么想产生这样的影响。

For our journey together, clarity means being certain of who you are, what contribution you want to make, and why you want to make that impact.

当你清楚自己是谁、在工作中能做出什么贡献，以及为什么这个贡献对你很重要时，你就能应对路上遇到的各种不确定性。

When you're clear on who you are, the contribution you make in the workplace, and why the impact of your contribution matters to you, you have the ability to navigate any uncertainty that confronts you on your path.

这对你来说意味着什么？

What does that mean for you?

意义重大。

A lot.

搞清楚自己，能帮你找到理想的工作。

Getting clear helps you identify your dream job.

它给你信心迈出第一步，也给你勇气在这条路上坚持下去，不管多难。

It gives you the confidence to step out on the path, and it gives you the courage to stay on that path no matter how rough it gets.

我在节目里接触的很多人，都在工作上有些困扰。

Most of the people I talk with on the show are locked up about their work in some way.

他们不够清楚自己要什么。

They don't have clarity.

所以，虽然我会问一些实际的问题，但我特别留意的是，聊到哪些话题时，对方会兴奋起来，那种发自内心的激动。

So while I ask practical questions, I'm especially listening for what makes that person's pulse quicken for all of the good reasons as we talk.

这些信息，是简历上看不出来的。

This tells me things their resume never could.

在我们短暂的交流中，我的目标是把每位来电者的心声反馈给他们，让他们自己找到答案。

In the short time we have together, my goal is to hear and read each caller's heart back to them so they can realize their own answer.

我永远不会比他们更了解自己，他们才是自己的专家。

I will never be the expert on them, but they are.

他们内心深处藏着答案，知道自己天生该做什么、为什么做。

Deep inside of them are the answers about what they were made to do and why.

我的工作就是帮他们打开那把锁。

My job is to help pick the lock.

我记得节目里有一位来电者，叫米歇尔。

I remember one caller to the show named Michelle.

她十年前为了抚养女儿放弃了职业道路，但现在又重新回到了职场。

She had given up her career path a decade earlier to raise her daughter, but was now back in the workforce.

听了一段时间节目后，米歇尔意识到自己只是一直从一个没前途的工作跳到另一个，仅仅为了维持生计。

After listening to the show for a while, Michelle realized she'd only been hopping from one dead end job to another just to make ends meet.

她的工作既没有目标也没有热情，她想要更多。

There was no purpose or passion in her work, and she wanted more.

一天晚上，她坐在厨房桌旁，开始理清思路。

She sat down at her kitchen table one night and started getting clear.

她知道自己喜欢在健康保险行业工作，帮助人们在专业药房拿到他们需要的药物。

She knew she enjoyed working in health insurance, helping people get the medicine they needed at a specialty pharmacy.

她研究了专业药房领域的职业，找到了一个需要去医生办公室的工作，帮助医生和患者获得专业药物。

She researched careers within specialty pharmacy and found a position that traveled to doctor's offices, helping doctors and patients get access to specialty medications.

我给了她一些建议，她修改了简历并申请了这个职位。

I gave her some suggestions and she revised her resume and applied for the position.

仅仅几周后，她就得到了这份工作，年薪从3万美元涨到了10万美元。

Within just a few weeks, she was offered the job and went from making $30,000 a year to $100,000.

米歇尔的故事并不是奇迹。

Michelle's story is not a miracle.

这是可以预见的。

It's predictable.

她的故事展示了清晰目标的超能力。

Her story illustrates the superpower of clarity.

有了清晰的目标，你也能实现自己的突破。

With clarity, you can experience your own breakthrough.

最了解你的人就是你自己。

You are the expert on you.

你有能力改变自己的命运，而且你早就有了自己需要的答案。

You are capable of changing your destiny, and you already have the answers you need.

我只是帮你解锁，让你能看到这些答案。

I'm just going to help you get unlocked so you can see them.

清晰的力量。

The impact of clarity.

在棒球比赛中，当击球手在恰到好处的位置击中球，也就是所谓的甜点区时，他或她几乎感觉不到与球的接触，但每个人都能看到结果。

In baseball, when a batter hits the ball in just the right place, the sweet spot, he or she can barely feel the contact with the ball, but everyone can see the result.

我不知道该怎么形容，就是看起来和感觉上都对，几乎毫不费力。

I don't know how to say it except that it just looks and feels right, almost effortless.

接触完美无缺。

The contact is perfect.

球简直是从球棒上弹出去的，飞得更远更快。

The ball literally jumps off the bat and travels farther and faster.

清晰能为你带来什么？

What does Clarity do for you?

它能让你看清球，眼睛一直盯着它，这样你就能发挥出最大潜力，产生最大的影响。

It lets you see the ball and keep your eyes on it so you can perform to your potential and create maximum impact.

它能帮你日复一日在工作中打出有意义的本垒打。

It helps you hit meaningful home runs in your work day after day.

一旦你在工作中找到了那个最佳击球点，你马上就能感觉到。

As soon as you experience work in your sweet spot, you will know it.

由此产生的巨大影响力，对你来说会显得非常自然。

The maximum impact this creates will feel natural to you.

你的头脑会明白，内心也会感受到。

Your head will know it and your heart will feel it.

现在你就明白为什么成功的运动员那么自信了。

Now it makes sense why successful athletes are so confident.

因为他们找到了那个最佳击球点。

They found the sweet spot.

拥有清晰的认知对我们来说也是一样的道理。

Having clarity works the same way for us.

有了清晰的认知，我们就能自由地看待工作机会，并且可以说，如果这份工作涉及这些内容，我知道我能做好，而且我会很喜欢。

Being clear frees us to look at job opportunities and say, if the job involves this, I know I can do it well, and I'll love it.

而且这会让我内心感到充实。

And it will make my heart full.

三十年的研究支持我的这个观点。

Thirty years of research backs me up on this.

如果你曾经体验过那种几乎毫不费力的状态，你就会体验到心理学家所说的“心流”这种心理状态。

If you've ever experienced one of those practically effortless situations, you will experience a mental state psychologist referred to as flow.

这个领域的顶尖研究者是一位名字特别拗口的家伙，叫米哈伊·契克森米哈赖。

The leading researcher in this field is a guy with a name that just rolls off the tongue, Mihai Cheeksentmihai.

米哈伊是克莱蒙特研究生大学的心理学教授，也是心流理论的创始人。

Mihai is a professor of psychology at Claremont Graduate University and the originator of flow theory.

他把心流比作演奏爵士乐。

He compares flow to playing jazz.

你的整个身心都投入其中，并且你把自己的技能发挥到了极致。

Your whole being is involved, and you're using your skills to the utmost.

他对心流的描述，听起来很像是在自己的最佳状态里工作。

His description of flow sounds a lot like working in your sweet spot.

当你进入心流状态时，时间感会消失，你会忘记自己，感觉自己是更大事物的一部分。

You're in the flow when your sense of time disappears, you forget yourself, you feel part of something larger.

你正在做的事情本身就变得值得去做。

What you are doing becomes worth doing for its own sake.

你在做自己真正喜欢的事情。

You're doing what you really like to do.

当你处于心流状态时，工作充满活力，结果也非同凡响。

When you're in the flow, the work is energizing and the results are extraordinary.

当我想到那些我敬佩的、找到了自己最佳状态的人时，首先浮现在我脑海里的名字之一就是我高中时的篮球教练——本尼·波尔克，他可是个火爆脾气。

When I think about people I've admired who found their sweet spot, one of the first names that pops into my mind is Benny Polk, my spitfire basketball coach from high school.

波尔克教练天生就是这块料，就连当年教练们穿的那种难看极了的短裤，他穿起来都显得很酷。

Coach Polk was such a natural that he even looked cool in those dreadful short shorts that coaches wore back in the day.

我总想象他脖子上挂着哨子，脸上带着专注的神情。

I always pictured him with a whistle around his neck and an intense look on his face.

他爱训练的程度不亚于爱比赛，而且他讲解战术板上的那些符号和跑位特别清楚，谁都能听懂。

He loved practice as much as he loved games, and he had a way of teaching the x's and o's so anyone could get it.

一场高质量的训练能让他像赢球一样开心。

A good practice made him as happy as a win.

你从来没见过有个人对球员完成战术演练、掌握基本功、在学业上取得好成绩，或者在生活中取得成功感到如此兴奋。

You've never seen a guy so excited for his players to execute a drill, master a fundamental, excel in the classroom, or win in life.

教练把教一群十几岁的少年这件事，做得看起来每天都毫不费力。

Coach made teaching a bunch of teenagers look easy all day, every day.

他的技能、热情和价值观完美融合，对我以及许多其他人产生了巨大的影响。

His skill, enthusiasm, and values came together powerfully, And his impact on me and many others was huge.

找到你的心流状态。

Finding your flow.

像波尔克教练那样，你是如何找到自己的最佳状态并进入心流的呢？

How do you get to your sweet spot like coach Polk and find that flow?

通过明确我们每个人都拥有的三项核心天赋。

By getting clear about the three primary gifts we're all given.

第一，你的天赋，你最擅长的事。

Number one, your talent, what you do best.

第二，你的热情，你最喜欢做的工作。

Number two, your passion, the work you love to do most.

第三，你的使命，你工作中对你意义重大的成果。

Number three, your mission, the results of your work that matter deeply to you.

当你从这个状态出发时，那种感觉无与伦比。

When you're operating from this place, there's nothing like it.

不过很多人忽略的是，要找到你的最佳状态，你需要对这三份礼物都清清楚楚。

What a lot of people miss though is that to find your sweet spot, you need to be clear on all three gifts.

只靠天赋，你可以成功。

Using only your talent can make you successful.

用天赋去做你热爱的事，你能获得工作满足感。

Using your talent to perform your passion can give you job satisfaction.

但用天赋去做热爱的事，去完成使命，那才是你找到意义的时候。

But using your talent to perform your passion to fulfill your mission, that's when you find significance.

你渴望的成功和满足感，其实来自于在工作中实现意义。

And the success and satisfaction you long for come with achieving significance in your work.

曾经有一段时间，我以为体育广播可能是我在播音领域的归宿。

There was a time when I thought sports radio might be the area of broadcasting for me.

但当我通过一些小活儿尝到了那个世界的滋味后，我意识到，我对体育的热爱并不等于我喜欢每天花三个小时聊体育。

Once I got a taste of that world through some small gigs though, I realized my love for sports didn't translate into a love for talking sports for three hours every day.

过了一段时间，我开始感到空虚。

After a while, I started to feel empty.

体育广播并没有满足我的第三部分，也就是我最想要的结果。

Sports radio didn't fulfill that third part of me, the results I wanted most.

当我思考这个拼图时，我明确了自己的目标，那就是利用我的公共沟通技巧来帮助人们发挥他们的潜力。

As I considered that piece of the puzzle, I got clear on my purpose, which was to use my public communication skills to help people maximize their potential.

如果我坚持做体育广播，那我只是在表演娱乐而已。

Had I stuck with sports radio, I would have just been performing to entertain.

但我的使命，也就是我最渴望的结果，让我一直走在发现目标的路上。

But my mission, the results I desired most, kept me on the path to discovering my purpose.

我节目里有个听众叫考特尼，她描述的那种感觉，是我听过最贴切的说法了。

The way Courtney, a caller on my show, described the feeling is as good a description as any I've heard.

她说，肯，我在明确使命这部分上卡住了。

She said, Ken, I'm struggling with getting clear on the mission part.

我什么都想不出来。

I can't come up with anything.

她告诉我她在天赋方面想要的结果后，接着谈到了热情，提到她喜欢把人们和有用的健康资源连接起来。

After she told me what her results would be under talent, she moved on to passion and mentioned how she loved connecting people to useful health and wellness resources.

为什么是健康和养生？

Why health and wellness?

我问她。

I asked.

说具体点。

Be specific.

她说，因为我在生活中有过一次突破。

Because I had a breakthrough in my life, she said.

彻底的生理转变。

A total physical transformation.

没错。

Bingo.

考特尼刚刚揭示了她非常在意的工作成果，以及为什么这件事对她如此重要。

Courtney had just revealed the result of her work that she cared deeply about and the reason it mattered so much.

她想帮助其他人体验生理上的转变。

She wanted to help other people experience physical transformation.

我记得我笑得特别开心，因为我知道她刚刚恍然大悟。

I remember smiling big knowing her light bulb had just switched on.

剩下的就是问她一个问题，让她心里感受到她脑子里刚刚意识到的东西。

All that was left was to ask her a question to get her heart to feel what her brain had just realized.

所以我说，如果你能每天每时每刻都做这件事呢？

So I said, what if you could do that all day, every day?

知道你帮助别人像你改变自己那样改变了他们的人生？

Knowing you helped somebody transform their life the way you transformed your own?

肯，那简直无法形容，考特尼回答说。

Ken, it would be unspeakable, Courtney replied.

就是这样。

That's it.

这就是我们这两章要讲的核心。

That's the whole point of what we're doing in these two chapters.

当天赋、热情和使命在你的最佳领域交汇时，你的心会歌唱，你会感受到那股动力。

When talent, passion, and mission come together in your sweet spot, your heart sings and you feel the juice.

各位，清晰至关重要。

Clarity is critical, folks.

没有它，这本书的其他章节都讲不通。

No other chapter in this book will make sense without it.

想知道你这辈子该做什么吗？

Want to know what to do with your life?

想找到你的梦想工作并为之努力吗？

Want to find your dream job and go after it?

我可以非常肯定地告诉你，答案归结为这一点。

I can absolutely tell you that the answer comes down to this.

弄清楚你自己是谁。

Get clear on who you are.

你必须先弄清楚，然后去追求它。

You've got to get clear, and then you've got to go after it.

这是你的时代。

This is your time.

接下来我们会讨论如何做到这一点。

We'll talk about how to do that next.

来吧。

Come on.

翻到下一页。

Turn the page.

我等不及了。

I can't wait.

第一章要点回顾。

Chapter one takeaways.

记住这一点。

Remember this.

你来到这个世界上，就是为了扮演一个独一无二的角色。

You were created to fill a unique role in this world.

你能行。

你非常有价值。

You are incredibly valuable.

这样做。

在这本书里，投入自我发现的过程。

Commit to the process of self discovery in this book.
