In a university commencement address several years ago, Brian Dyson, CEO of Coca Cola Enterprises, spoke of the relation of work to one's other commitments: "Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit - and you're keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls - family, health, friends and spirit - are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life."

几年以前在一次大学开学典礼上，可口可乐公司的CEO Brian Dyson进行了一次演讲。他阐述了工作与其他美德的关系。他说“把生活想象成是一场游戏，就像是漂浮在空中的五种气球。我们分别把他们叫做工作，家庭，健康，朋友和精神，让他们保持在空中。你很快会发现工作就是一个橡皮球，你把他扔掉他还会弹回来。但是其他四种气球-家庭，健康，朋友和精神，却是用玻璃做的。如果你放掉其中任何一个，他都会不可避免的有磨损，有记号，有刻痕，受损坏甚至被摧毁。都不会再恢复成原状了。你必须懂得这个道理并且在你的生活中去努力平衡他们。”

How? Don't undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special. Don't set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you. Don't take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as they would your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
Don't let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future.

但是该怎么做呢？千万不要拿自己和别人比而低估了自己的价值。因为我们每个人都是不同的，都是独特的。不要把你的目标设定在别人认为重要的事情上，只有你自己知道什么最适合你。不要把你内心所想的事都认为是理所当然的。要好好珍惜他们就像是你的生命一样，因为失去了他们生活就毫无意义了。不要老是活在过去或者憧憬未来而让生活从你的指尖流逝。

By living your life one day at a time, you live ALL the days of your life. Don't give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying. Don't be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us to each together. Don't be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave. Don't shut love out of your life by saying it's impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.

每天生活一点点，你的生命才更完整。如果你还有想要抓住的东西，就不要轻易放弃。只要你不停止努力没有什么事情能难倒你。不要害怕承认自己并不完美，这并不能束缚住我们。不要害怕遇到危险，这正是我们学会如何变得勇敢的好机会。不要认为爱情很难找，就把他拒之门外。收获爱情最快的方法就是奉献爱，而失去爱情的最快方式就是抓的太紧了，维持爱情最好的办法就是给他一双翅膀让他自由飞翔。

Don't run through life so fast that you forget not only where you've been, but also where you are going. Don't forget, a person's greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated. Don't be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily. Don't use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved. Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way. Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a Mystery and Today is a gift: that's why we call it The Present.

不要生活的太快以至于让你忘记了自己是来自于哪里又要到哪里去。不要忘记一个人最大的情感需要就是感激。不要害怕学习，知识是不压身的，它是一笔你随时都能用的财富。不要随意的浪费时间和说一些没用的话，因为一旦失去了或者说了一些不该说的话都是不可挽回的。生活不是赛跑而是一场旅行，需要你一步一步的慢慢的去体会。昨天已成过去，明天还是未知，今天才是最珍贵的。所以我们把它称之为--现在。
