在繁瑣無聊的生活中，時刻保持有意識（Self-awareness），知道什么對你是重要的，學(xué)會控制你的想法?！癓ess is more”，能把復(fù)雜的事情用簡單的語言表達(dá)也是一種能力。
杜克大學(xué)的老師畫的14幅邏輯圖，把看似繁瑣的思維方式寥寥幾筆就描繪了出來，讓人一目了然。
01
“Pay close attention. This is your life.”
請密切留意，這就是你的生活
“Pay close attention. This is your life.”
請密切留意，這就是你的生活
—Professor Deborah Pope,Department of English
活在當(dāng)下，體會每一刻，生活會充盈許多。
02
It is just a choice that leads to the next steps of life
選擇沒有想象中那么重要
“People always obsess over big decisions (e.g., which job/ position to accept), but really, tomorrow will always be a blur. Plan with calmness, and then take the leap in the direction you think is best, knowing that there will rarely be a ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ but just a choice that leads to the next steps of life.”
人們總是過于在意那些重要的決定 (比如接受什么樣的工作或者職位) 但是實(shí)際上明天總是難以確定的。用冷靜的心做計劃，向你認(rèn)為最好的目標(biāo)大膽進(jìn)發(fā)，要知道，很少有所謂完全”正確”或是”錯誤”的決定，因?yàn)樗鼈冎徊贿^都是一個讓你的生命進(jìn)入下一個階段的決定。
—Professor Mohamed Noor,Department of Biology
‘選擇’沒有重要到可以決定我們的一生。
03
Relationships
關(guān)系比索取更重要
“You will get the more satisfaction about the relationships you form than from the things you acquire.”
和你得到的相比，你可以從和別人建立的關(guān)系中獲得更多的滿足感
—Joel Rosch,Center For Child and Family Policy
‘給’永遠(yuǎn)比‘拿’愉快

不慕虛名
“Respect people over job titles. Everyone’s life has meaning.”
尊重人而不是他們的頭銜，每個人的生命都有自己的價值。
—Stacy Torian,Graduate School Admissions
我們的墓志銘，不需要頭銜
05
Instead of seeing it as a shutdown
look at it as an opportunity
拒絕也是一種機(jī)遇
“Learn to reframe rejection. Whether you’re working towards a leadership position or building a company, people will frequently tell you no. Instead of seeing it as a shutdown, look at it as an opportunity to figure out why. Are you asking the wrong person? Have you not yet demonstrated you can handle the new responsibility? Over time, ‘no’ becomes just another opportunity to wait, learn and try again.”
學(xué)會重新認(rèn)識拒絕。當(dāng)你處在一個領(lǐng)導(dǎo)者的位置或者建立一個公司的時候，人們會經(jīng)常告訴你”不行”。但是與其把這個NO視為事情的結(jié)束，不如把它看作一個尋找原因的機(jī)會：你是不是找了錯誤的人? 你是不是還沒有表現(xiàn)出你可以承擔(dān)這個新責(zé)任的能力? 隨著時間的推移，NO就會變成另一個等待，學(xué)習(xí)和嘗試的機(jī)會。
—Kathryn Minshew ,Co-founder of The Muse
積極點(diǎn)，你能得到更多
06
Find a place where you can be challenged

“Find a place where you can be challenged. Ask yourself: Am I proud of my work?”
找到一個可以挑戰(zhàn)自己的地方。問自己:”我是否為我的工作感到自豪”
—Katie Smith,Career Center
熱情地迎接挑戰(zhàn)
07
Embrace ambiguity
迷人的‘不確定性’
“Don’t be afraid to diverge from your ‘plan.’ Embrace ambiguity. The uncertain and what may appear high risk in relationships, jobs and life is usually very cool and worthwhile.”
別害怕偏離你的計劃。勇敢的接受不確定性。那些在你感情，工作和生活上表現(xiàn)出不確定性和高風(fēng)險的東西往往都是很酷而且很值得你嘗試的。
—Christopher Simmons,Office of Federal Relations
未來的不可知，是我們前進(jìn)的原動力
08
Stop and look back
學(xué)會反思
“As you move forward into the next stage of your life, do not forget to stop and look back to discover the meaning of where you have been. That will help you better understand who you are, where you may be heading, and how you can get there.”
當(dāng)你進(jìn)入你人生的新階段，別忘了停下來回頭看看，去發(fā)現(xiàn)你過去經(jīng)歷的意義。它可以讓你更好的了解你是誰，將到哪里去，如何去那里。
—David Steinbrenner,Postdoctoral Services
停下來，是為了更好地出發(fā)

閱讀自己領(lǐng)域之外的書，廣泛并且熱情地閱讀。創(chuàng)造力是一個必需的生存技能，而一些靈感就來自于你不經(jīng)意間的積累。
—Jan Little,Sarah P. Duke Gardens
閱讀不僅要有深度，也要有廣度
12
誠實(shí)待己
Be true to yourself
“Be true to yourself. Be willing to learn and to be coachable.”
誠實(shí)地對待自己。求知若渴，虛懷若谷。
—Prim Siripipat ，ESPN Commentator
再也沒有比自欺欺人更容易的事情了

愛在于感恩和傳遞
