This is a very good piece of thought.
Read carefully and relate it to your life.
How many times does a footballer try before he can score a goal?
The Law of the Seed
Take a look at an apple tree.
There might be five hundred apples on the tree, but each apple has just
ten
seeds.
That's a lot of seeds!
We might ask, "Why would you need so many seeds to grow just a few more
apple trees?"
Nature has something to teach us here.
It's telling us: "Not all seeds grow. In life, most seeds never grow.
So if you really want to make something happen, you had better try more
than
once."
This might mean:
You'll attend twenty interviews to get one job.
You'll interview forty people to find one good employee.
You'll talk to fifty people to sell one house, one car, one vacuum
cleaner,
one insurance policy, or a business idea.
And you might meet a hundred acquaintances just to find one special
friend.
When we understand the "Law of the Seed", we don't get so disappointed.
We stop feeling like victims.
We learn how to deal with things that happen to us.
Laws of nature are not things to take personally. We just need to
understand them - and work with them.
IN A NUTSHELL
Successful people fail more often. But they plant more seeds.
When Things Are Beyond your control, here's something that you must
NOT DO so as to avoid misery in your life:
You must not decide how you think the world SHOULD be.
You must not make rules for how everyone SHOULD behave.
Then, when the world doesn't obey your rules, you get angry!
That's what miserable people do!
On the other hand, let's say you expect that:
Friends SHOULD return favours.
People SHOULD appreciate you.
Planes SHOULD arrive on time.
Everyone SHOULD be honest.
Your husband or best friend SHOULD remember your birthday.
These expectations may sound reasonable. But often, these things won't
happen!
So you end up frustrated and disappointed.
There's a better strategy. Demand less, and instead, have preferences!
For things that are beyond your control, tell yourself:
"I WOULD PREFER "A", BUT IF "B" HAPPENS, IT'S OK TOO!"
This is really a change in mindset. It is a shift in attitude, and it
gives
you more peace of mind ...
You prefer that people are polite ... but when they are rude, it doesn't
ruin your day.
You prefer sunshine ... but if it rains, it is ok too!
To become happier, we either need to
a) Change the world, or
b) Change our thinking.
It is easier to change our Thinking!
IN A NUTSHELL
It is not the problem that is the issue, but rather it is your attitude
attending to the problem that is the problem.
It's not what happens to you that determine your happiness.
It's how you think about what happens to you!
Read carefully and relate it to your life.

仔细阅读，并涉及到您的生活。
多少次，是否一名足球运动员尝试之前，他能进球？
法律的种子
考虑一下一个苹果树。
可能有500苹果，树，但每个苹果刚
十
种子。
这里面有很多的种子！
我们可能会问， “为什么你会需要这么多的种子，成长在短短数更多
苹果树“ ？
性质的东西，教导我们在这里。
它告诉我们： “不是所有的种子成长。在生活中，大多数种子从来没有成长。
所以，如果你真的想作出一些情况，你最好尝试一次以上“ 。
这可能意味着：
您将出席20面谈，以得到一个工作。
您面试40人，找到一个好雇员。
您谈一谈，以50人出售了一栋房屋， 1辆汽车， 1个
清洁工人，
一份保险政策，或一个经营理念。
和您可能会认识100个人，只是为了找到一个特别朋友。
当我们真正的理解法律“种子” ，我们就不这么失望。
我们停止感觉我们是个受害者。
我们会更懂得如何处理发生的事。
不要让自然规律影响我们的生活。我们所需要的只是了解他们-与他们共事。
在一言以蔽之
成功的人失败比一般人多，但他们种的子也更多。
当事情超出你的控制，这里的东西，您必须
不这样做，以避免痛苦，在你的生活：
你不能决定如何，你认为世界应该是。
你绝不能订立规则如何，大家应该的行为。
然后，当世界上不服从您的规则，你生气！
这是可悲的人做的！
在另一方面，让我们说你期望：
朋友们应该返回恩惠。
人民应该感谢您。
飞机应准时到达。
每个人都应该诚实。
您的丈夫或最好的朋友，应该记得你的生日。
这些期望，听起来可能是合理的。但很多时候，这些东西将不会发生！
所以你最终感到沮丧和失望。
有个更好的策略。需求更少和有多种选择！
事情是超出你的控制，告诉自己：
“我宁愿有” A “ ，但如果有” B “的情况下，我也能接受” ！
这实在是改变思维方式。这是一个转变的态度，和它让你拥有更安宁的心灵...
您喜欢礼貌.的人..但是，当他们是粗鲁的，它不影响你的心情和美好的一天。
你喜欢阳光...但如果下雨，这也没关系！
要成为快乐，我们要么需要
a ）去改变世界，或
b ）去改变我们的思维。
这是比较容易改变我们的思想！
在一言以蔽之
问题不是问题而是我们的态度去面对问题才是问题！
你的快乐和幸福不是外在决定的而是你的思想和心灵决定的！
Read carefully and relate it to your life.
How many times does a footballer try before he can score a goal?
联系自己好好地读一读这篇思想性极好的文章.
想想足球运动员,要经过多少次(尝试)努力,才能踢进一个球.
The Law of the Seed
种子的法则
Take a look at an apple tree.
There might be five hundred apples on the tree, but each apple has just
ten
seeds.
That's a lot of seeds!
看看这棵苹果树。
树上有也许500个苹果，每个苹果有十颗种子。
真不算少！
We might ask, "Why would you need so many seeds to grow just a few more
apple trees?"
Nature has something to teach us here.
It's telling us: "Not all seeds grow. In life, most seeds never grow.
或问, “我们不会种植那么多苹果树,为什么要那么多种子呢?"
这里,大自然来给我们上课啦.
她说,不是所有的种子都会长成苹果树,事实上,其中大部分种子没有成树的机会。
So if you really want to make something happen, you had better try more
than
once."
因此,如果你真想有所作为，你最好多试试.
This might mean:
You'll attend twenty interviews to get one job.
You'll interview forty people to find one good employee.
You'll talk to fifty people to sell one house, one car, one vacuum
cleaner,
one insurance policy, or a business idea.
And you might meet a hundred acquaintances just to find one special
friend.
When we understand the "Law of the Seed", we don't get so disappointed.
有意思的是:
应聘面试20次，只为得到一个工作的位置;
招聘面试40个人，只为找到一个好雇员;
费尽口舌谈了50个顾客,只为出售1栋房, 1辆车，1个吸尘器，或一份保险,一个商业经营计划.
您去认识100个人，只为找到一个特别的朋友.
真正理解了“种子的法则”,我们就不会那么轻言放弃.
.
We stop feeling like victims.
We learn how to deal with things that happen to us.
别老觉得自己倒霉.
好好学习面对现实.
Laws of nature are not things to take personally. We just need to
understand them - and work with them.
自然的法则不会让我们随心所欲地自由.
我们要了解她--然后与之共存共荣.
IN A NUTSHELL
简言之
Successful people fail more often. But they plant more seeds.
When Things Are Beyond your control, here's something that you must
NOT DO so as to avoid misery in your life:
成功的人经历过更多的失败，然而,他们种下更多的种子.
如果,情况超出了你的控制能力，请记住如下要诀,以防不测:
You must not decide how you think the world SHOULD be.
You must not make rules for how everyone SHOULD behave.
Then, when the world doesn't obey your rules, you get angry!
That's what miserable people do!
你不能决定世界该是你想象的那个样子.
你不能指定规范让每个人该如何行止.
然后，当世界不合你意的时候,你恼火了！
倒霉的人就是这个样子才倒了霉的!
On the other hand, let's say you expect that:
让我们再来说说你期望的是什么：
Friends SHOULD return favours.
People SHOULD appreciate you.
Planes SHOULD arrive on time.
Everyone SHOULD be honest.
Your husband or best friend SHOULD remember your birthday.
你期望——
你的朋友应该知恩图报.
人们应该对你心存感激.
飞机应准时赶到.
每个人都应该诚实可靠.
你的丈夫或最好的朋友，都应该把你的生日,牢记在心.
These expectations may sound reasonable. But often, these things won't
happen!
So you end up frustrated and disappointed.
There's a better strategy. Demand less, and instead, have preferences!
这些个期望，听起来都是应该的,合理的. 但是,常常,这些东西都不会发生！
终于,你常感受挫,以至沮丧.
有一个很好的办法,可以让你解忧. 那就是, 少一点需求, 多一点选择！
For things that are beyond your control, tell yourself:
如果情况超出你的能力, 那么,告诉你自己:
"I WOULD PREFER "A", BUT IF "B" HAPPENS, IT'S OK TOO!"
我喜欢A, 但如果出现的是B, 那也没关系!
This is really a change in mindset. It is a shift in attitude, and it
gives
you more peace of mind ...
思维方式变一变. 是一种(心)态度的转变, 它会让你变得神定心安...
You prefer that people are polite ... but when they are rude, it doesn't
ruin your day.
You prefer sunshine ... but if it rains, it is ok too!
您当然喜欢有礼貌.的人...但是，当他们是粗鲁的，它不影响你的心情和美好的一天。
你当然喜欢阳光...但如果下雨，这也没关系！
To become happier, we either need to
a) Change the world, or
b) Change our thinking.
It is easier to change our Thinking!
要成为一个快乐的人，我们还要
a ）改变世界，或
b ）改变自己的想法。
改变自己的想法,相对容易一点!
IN A NUTSHELL
It is not the problem that is the issue, but rather it is your attitude
attending to the problem that is the problem.
It's not what happens to you that determine your happiness.
It's how you think about what happens to you!
总而言之
问题不是问题本身,面对问题的态度才是问题！
决定你幸福的,不是发生了什么,而是对发生的事情该怎么个看！
我们需要种下很多种子，才能长出一颗苹果树。
如果我们种下一颗种子，就能长出一颗苹果树，我们就不会觉得快乐，也不会珍惜。
如果我们种下了很多种子，没有长出一颗苹果树，我们会觉得失望。
如果我们种下了很多颗种子，没有长出苹果树，我们继续种，经过很多次失败，终于长出了一颗苹果树，我们会觉得真的快乐！并且珍惜。
生活就是这样，蒋大师说的对，我们可以通过改变我们的思想去做出更好的选择，但是我们是否能改变我们内心的感受，是快乐还是失望？
没有种出苹果树，会感到成功的快乐吗？
所以快乐的感觉都是经历过很多次的失败才能体会到，生活中很少，所以才会珍惜。
所以我们会记得：需要种下很多种子才能长出一颗苹果树！经历过很多以后，就会明白幸福不容易，就会过的坦然、平静，并且懂得珍惜！
受过苦的人才知道幸福的滋味。
我们需要种下很多种子，才能长出一颗苹果树。
如果我们种下一颗种子，就能长出一颗苹果树，我们就不会觉得快乐，也不会珍惜。
如果我们种下了很多
by the way, smile everyday makes people happy.
It's how you think about what happens to you!
精辟啊！前些日子看了一本书，书中曾有这么一句话：“可怜自己，是一件很卑鄙的事情。”曾感慨了一番，但今天看到该文“We stop feeling like victims.We learn how to deal with things that happen to us.”说得太好了。
