Considering how much time most adults will spend in the workplace over the course of their lives (an estimated 25-30 years), it doesn't take much of a stretch to surmise a person’s choice of career plays a significant role in their sense of happiness.
想想大多數成年人一輩子要工作多長時間(據估計25-30年)，所以不難想象一個人選擇的事業對他們的幸福感有多大影響。
I believe a fulfilling career is something you have the power to create, moment by moment, year by year, and decade by decade. Just as success rarely happens overnight, deriving a healthy amount of satisfaction from the work that you do requires the right mindset.
我想令人滿意的工作會讓你時時刻刻、日復一日、年復一年地產生創造力。一夜成名很少見，所以，你需要擺正心態，才能從你所從事的工作中獲得足以維持健康的滿足感。
I recently read Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert. She shares her wisdom regarding the choice each of us has between saying yes or no when inspiration strikes. She writes about clearing out obstacles which are preventing you from living your most creative life, understanding that "whatever is bad for you is probably also bad for your work."
我最近讀了伊麗莎白·吉爾伯特的書《大魔術》(Big Magic)，她分享了一些關于我們每個人在突發靈感時的明智之選究竟是采納還是拒絕。她寫道，你要清除阻礙你生活充滿創造力的障礙，你要明白，“對你沒好處的東西可能對你的工作也沒有裨益。”
There are so many wonderful truths that she offers, but one of my favorites is found on page 63, where she says: "Work with all of your heart because - I promise - if you show up to work day after day after day after day, you just might get lucky enough some random morning to burst right into bloom."
她給出了這么多絕妙的真理，但我最喜歡的在63頁，她說：“你要全身心投入工作，因為我敢保證如果你日復一日不間斷地工作，你就能在某一天攢夠運氣苦盡甘來。”
Here are five of my tips to contemplate as you reach for your goals.
以下是關于追求目標我給出的5條建議。
1. Operate in an area that brings you joy.
1. 從事能給自己帶來快樂的領域。
2. Identify your natural strengths.
2. 認清自己的強項。
3. Acknowledge your areas of weakness but don't let it stop you.
3. 看清自己的弱點，但不要讓它攔住你前進的腳步。
4. Establish what is most important to you.
4. 確定什么對你是重要的。
5. Go for it, stick with it, or as my dad always used to remind me to do when I was younger: finish what you start.
5. 努力爭取，堅持住，或者像我小時候爸爸經常提醒我的：開始了就不要放棄。
To close with another quote from Elizabeth Gilbert: "Create whatever causes a revolution in your heart."
用伊麗莎白·吉爾伯特的另外一句話作結束語：“把改變你心靈的想法變成現實。”
Loving your work and living a full life requires intention, action, and a good dose of Big Magic!
熱愛工作、生活充實都要有目標、有行動、還需要有一點大魔法!
