life lessons you will learn the hard way

人生必学的教训

In a world where everyone is trying to be like someone else, it takes great amount of courage to take the road less traveled.

在一个大家都想成为别人的世界中，需要很大勇气才能走少有人走的路。

In our whole life, we are always asking ten people before taking any step.

在我们的生活中，我们总是在行动前问10个人的看法。

We always want to validate that we are sure and do not make any mistake. We are too scared to fail hence, we follow the same path that everyone suggests, do the same thing everyone does, take the same career path everyone takes, wear the same clothes everyone wears, and hang out with the same people we work with.

我们总是想确保这样做是可以的，这样做是不会犯任何错误的。我们太害怕失败了，所以我们按着别人建议的道路去走，做别人做的事情，走别人走的职业路线，穿和别人一样的衣服，和同事一起出去玩。

Why? Because we are scared. But when you get bored of life, you realize that you are not meant to do what everyone does and that your destiny is different than anyone else’s out there in the world.

为什么？因为我们太害怕了。但是，当你觉得生活无聊时，你会意识到，你不该去做别人做的事情，你的命运和世界上其他人的命运都不同。

But the price we pay to realize this is high because it takes a tremendous amount of guts to follow your own trail by listening to your heart.

但是我们意识到这一点所需要花费的代价太高了，因为这需要大量的勇气去倾听自己的内心来走自己的道路。
