探索未知(中英)

探索未知Exploring the Unknown只有缺乏安全感的人才会奋力寻求安全。

Only insecure people would struggle to find safety.我们所经历的最美好的事物便是探秘未知。

它是所有艺术和科学的真正源泉。

The most beautiful thing we can experience is exploring the unknown. It is the true source of all art and science.神秘的未知也是人的发展和激情的源泉。

The mysterious unknown is also the source of human development and passion.（一）积极尝试新事物Actively Trying New Things如果你充分相信自己，就有能力进行任何活动。

一旦你敢于探索那些未知的领域，便有可能体验到人世间的各种乐趣。

想想那些被称为“天才”的人，那些在生活中颇有作为的人，他们并不是仅精通一件事的人，也不是回避未知的人。

他们和你一样，都是普通人，唯一区别只不过是他们敢于走别人不敢走的路。

你可以用崭新的目光重新看待自己，打开心灵的窗子，进行那些你一向认为力所不能及的事情；否则，你就会以同样的方式重复进行同样的活动，直到你进棺材为止。

事实上，伟人也是普通人，他们的伟大之处往往体现在其探索的品质及探索未知的勇气上。

If you fully believe in yourself, you will have the ability to carry out any activities. Once you dare to explore those unknown areas, it is possible for you to experience various pleasures in the world. Think of those who have been called “genius”, those who are fairly successful in their lives, they are not only proficient in one thing, and also not those kind of people who evade the unknown. They are ordinary people, just like you, the only difference is that they dare to break a path unbeaten before. You can see yourself with brand-new eyes, open the window of your heart, anddo those things that are beyond your powers as you thought before; otherwise you will repeat the same activities in the same way, until you are dead. In fact, the great men are also ordinary people; their greatness is always reflected in the quality of exploration and their courage to explore the unknown.要积极尝试新事物，就必须摒弃这样的观点：改变现状不如苟且偷安，因为改变将会带来许多不稳定的未知因素。

也许你一直认为自己非常脆弱，经不起摔打，如果涉足于完全陌生的领域，会碰得头破血流。

这是一种荒谬的观点。

当你身处逆境时，你可以依靠自己战胜困难；当你遇到陌生事物、身处陌生环境时，你不会经不起考验，更不会一蹶不振。

相反，如果消除一些单调的常规因素，你倒会少出现些精神崩溃。

如果你在生活中添加未知因素作为调味剂，你就不会选择精神崩溃。

To actively try new things, it is imperative to abandon this kind of view: it’s better to seek temporary ease and comfort than to change the status quo, because the changes will bring a lot of unknown factors of instability. Maybe you think you have been very fragile, can not bear the hardships, and if you are involved in a completely unknown area, you will meet with setbacks. This is an absurd point of view. When you are in adversity, you can rely on yourself to overcome the difficulties; when you meet with unfamiliar things or when you are in a strange environment; you can stand any test, and would never collapse after one setback. To the contrary, if you eliminate some monotonous conventional factors, you may have less mental collapse. If you add unknown factors in your life as a flavoring, you will not choose a nervous breakdown.你可能还认为，做任何事情都必须要有理由，否则做它又有什么意义呢？纯属谬论！只要你愿意，便可以去做任何事情，而不必一定要有理由。

你如果认为事事都要有理由，你就不能去尝试新的经历。

你对理由的“热衷”阻碍你成长发展，使你不能开放自己。

如果你不必再向任何人——包括你自己——就任何事情提出理由，那将是一件多么令人宽慰的解脱啊！You may also believe that everything must be done for a reason, otherwise what’s the point of it? This is a pure false theory! If you like, you can do anything, and you don’t have to have a reason. If you think that everything should be done for a reason, you can not try new experiences. The cult of reasons hinders you to grow, develop, and open yourself. If you don’t have to find a reason for anything for anyone, including yourself, that would be a comforting relief!你可以想做什么就做什么，其原因只不过是你愿意这样做。

这种思维方式将向你展现出新的活动前景，并有助于消除你迄今为止养成的消极生活方式——惧怕未知。

You can do whatever you want, just for the reason that you are willing to do so. This thinking pattern will show you new perspectives, and help you eliminate your negative life style you have developed so far—fearing the unknown.（二）僵化与自发性Rigidity and Spontaneity所谓自发性，就是随时根据兴致做你喜欢的事情。

你甚至会发现，也许这并不是你喜欢做的事情，然而你还是喜欢尝试一下。

The so-called spontaneity is that you can do whatever you like according to your interests at any time. You may even find that this is not what you like, but you still want to have a try.思维僵化的人永远不会有所发展。

他们往往按早已习惯的固定方式去做事情。

亲爱的读者，你是真的生活了一万多天，还是仅仅生活了一天，重复了一万多次？当你在生活中致力于发挥自己的能动性时，应该向自己提出这个意味深长的问题。

Rigid thinking people will never have development. They have already got used to do things in a fixed way. Dear reader, have you really lived more than ten thousand days, or only lived one day, and repeated it for more than ten thousand times? When you are committed to take your initiative in you life, you should ask yourself this meaningful question.（三）内心安全感与外界安全感External Security and Inner Sense of Security外界安全感是指外界的保障，如金钱、房产和汽车等物质财富，或者是工作或社会地位等生活保障。

但是，世界上存在着另外一种值得追求的安全感，这就是内心安全感。

External security is the protection of the outside world, such as money, property, cars and other material wealth, or work, social status and other life guarantee. However, there is another sense of security in the world that worth pursuing, that is inner sense of security.所谓内心安全感，就是相信自己能够处理任何事情的安全感。
