Jim Rohn said “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” And it’s completely true. If you want to be a success, hang around with successful people. If someone has what you want, you can do what they do, and get what they’ve got.
吉姆·雷恩说：“你最常接近的5个人的平均值就是你。” 这句话完全正确。如果你渴望成功，那就应多接触成功人士。如果某人拥有你希望得到的东西，你可以按照他们的做法，得到他们拥有的东西。

12. Worry less
少担心

Worrying about that big test is normal, as is worrying about that possible job promotion, but when you begin to worry excessively, it can become a real problem. Worrying can lead to stress and anxiety, which can become disorders and negatively affect all areas of your life.
担心重要的考试很正常，担心可能的工作升迁也是一样。但当你开始过分担心时，担心本身可能成为问题。担心可以产生压力，导致焦虑，而混乱接踵而来，你生活的方方面面将受到消极影响。

13. Learn from your past but don’t dwell on it
以史为鉴，但不要纠结于过去

Being caught up in your past can lead to stagnation and the inability to progress in your life. Understand that life is just a series of events and move on. You can change the future but you cannot alter your past decisions.
沉浸于过去让你停滞不前、无力进取。要知道，生活是一系列不断发展的事件。你可以改变未来，却不能对过去的决定做出改变。

14. Travel
旅行

Most of you want to travel the world, see new things, and meet new people. But statistics show that the average mother in the U.S. will start a family at age 25, meaning that your travel options will become quite limited for a number of years after you start having children. And even if you do tell yourself that you’re going to travel, most of you won’t. Don’t put it off. Get out there and see the places you desire most.
大多数人渴望周游世界，接触新事物，结交新朋友。但数据显示，美国妇女一般在25岁时开始做母亲，这意味着此后的数年之内，你的旅行机会相当受限。即使你不断告诉自己，你有出游的想法，但大多实现不了。不要犹豫，收拾行装，去欣赏你最心仪的美景吧。

15. Learn a new language
学门新语言

In this day and age, knowing a second (or third) language is no longer just a hobby, it can help you in your career. Being able to communicate with people from multiple cultures not only makes good business sense, but expands your personal growth.
当今时代，懂二种或三种语言不再是爱好，你的职业生活将因此受益。具备与多种文化交流的能力不仅能铸就你良好的商业意识，还是你个人成长的助力。

16. Overcome some of your biggest fears
消除一些盘踞内心的恐惧

Your fears will haunt you for your entire life if they aren’t dealt with. Do you really want to go through life being deathly afraid of flying? Do you want the fear of public speaking to control you? Of course not. Take these challenges head on and early on and overcome them.
如果听之任之，恐惧将萦绕你一生。你真得希望终其一生都怕飞翔怕得要死吗？你希望在大家面前讲话时总是诚惶诚恐吗？当然不。直面挑战，克服它们。

17. Experiment
经验

Life is chock full of experiences. Try new things. Get out there and fail often. Learn from your mistakes. You only get one chance at this life. Get as much in as you can.
生活中皆是经验。尝试新事物。大胆走出去，接受失败，从错误中学习。你只能活一次，尽量多尝试。

18. Appreciate your parents
感激父母

As children, we adore our parents. As teens, we ignore our parents. And in adulthood, we take them for granted. Knowing that they did the best possible job they could raising you will help you appreciate them. Make a phone call right now to tell them so.
孩提时，我们崇拜父母；青春年少时，我们忽视父母；成年后，我们认为他们做的一切都是应该的。他们尽最大的努力抚养你，懂得这一点将使你感激他们。马上拿起电话，告诉他们你的感激之情。
