在新的一年里,很多人都想有所改變,如提高英語(yǔ)能力、通過(guò)考試、職位晉升等新年目標(biāo)?墒牵總(gè)人心里都知道,那一個(gè)個(gè)懷揣著美好希望和滿(mǎn)腔斗志的目標(biāo)終究還是“目標(biāo)”,很難實(shí)現(xiàn)。不過(guò),只要大家肯認(rèn)真努力,愿望也是會(huì)變?yōu)楝F(xiàn)實(shí)的,下面就給大家分享幾個(gè)“小竅門(mén)”。
英語(yǔ)閱讀:實(shí)現(xiàn)新年目標(biāo)的10個(gè)竅門(mén)
British psychologist Richard Wiseman has done several surveys on willpower - in 2007 he tracked the success of 3,000 people’s New Year’s resolutions, only to find that a mere 12 percent of them managed to achieve what they had set out to do. He looked into what the successful people were doing differently, and, based on their experience, devised a list of tips for others who want to stop failing miserably.
英國(guó)心理學(xué)家理查德·懷斯曼做過(guò)很多關(guān)于意志力的調(diào)查。2007年,他對(duì)3000人進(jìn)行了追蹤調(diào)查,統(tǒng)計(jì)他們新年目標(biāo)的實(shí)現(xiàn)情況,結(jié)果僅有12%的人完成了 自己之前制定的目標(biāo)。他又對(duì)成功實(shí)現(xiàn)目標(biāo)的人做了進(jìn)一步調(diào)查,發(fā)現(xiàn)了一些與眾不同的方法,最后他通過(guò)實(shí)驗(yàn)得出了幾條建議,來(lái)幫助那些一度無(wú)法實(shí)現(xiàn)目標(biāo)的 人。
Before we get into the list, it turns out the number one thing to stop relying on is your own willpower - that’s basically the worst approach to keeping a resolution, and is the reason why so many of us never start exercising more, continue eating all that fried chicken, and still can’t speak a word of French.
在學(xué)習(xí)這些“竅門(mén)”之前,你要意識(shí)到無(wú)法實(shí)現(xiàn)目標(biāo)的“罪魁禍?zhǔn)住本褪且蕾?lài)于意志力,這可以說(shuō)是最差勁的辦法。想想你為什么無(wú)法加強(qiáng)鍛煉,無(wú)法抗拒炸雞的誘惑,無(wú)法說(shuō)出一句法語(yǔ),癥結(jié)就在于此吧。
What should you be doing instead? As Wiseman explained on his blog back in 2013, your goals should be small and manageable, you should document your success, tell others about your intentions, and, importantly, not beat yourself up for failing. Here’s the complete list of Wiseman’s advice:
那么,你應(yīng)該怎么做呢?早在2013年懷斯曼就在博客上給出了答案:目標(biāo)不必太大,要在能力范圍內(nèi),而且應(yīng)該記錄下目標(biāo)實(shí)現(xiàn)的過(guò)程,告訴別人你要做什么,最重要的是,不要被失敗擊倒。下面是懷斯曼給出的十大建議:
1) If possible, make only one resolution - changing a lot of things at once is more difficult.
盡可能只制定一個(gè)目標(biāo)。一次性做太多改變是相當(dāng)困難的。
2) Think about your resolutions in advance, and spend some time to reflect on them.
提前想好目標(biāo),然后花點(diǎn)時(shí)間好好地反復(fù)考慮。
3) Don’t re-visit past failures, but focus on new resolutions instead.
不要執(zhí)著于之前的失敗,而要專(zhuān)注于當(dāng)下的目標(biāo)。
4) Focus on what you really want - don’t just go with what’s trendy.
認(rèn)準(zhǔn)真正想要的,不要隨波逐流。
5) Break your goal into manageable, concrete steps with specific deadlines.
將目標(biāo)細(xì)化成一個(gè)個(gè)可達(dá)到的小目標(biāo),在規(guī)定時(shí)間內(nèi)完成相應(yīng)任務(wù)。
6) Go public - tell your friends, family, social networks about your goals, which will increase your fear of failure and also garner support.
開(kāi)誠(chéng)布公,把目標(biāo)告訴朋友,家人以及社交圈,這樣會(huì)增加對(duì)失敗的懼怕,同時(shí)得到他們的支持。
7) Create a checklist focusing on how much better your life will be once you’ve achieved your goals.
一旦達(dá)成目標(biāo),列一張清單,展現(xiàn)現(xiàn)在的生活中好的改變。
8) Whenever you make progress on the steps towards your goal, give yourself a small reward.
只要取得了離目標(biāo)更近的進(jìn)步,哪怕一點(diǎn)點(diǎn),都應(yīng)給自己一點(diǎn)獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)。
9) Document your journey - charts, spreadsheets, journals and other means of tracking your progress will keep it concrete.
記錄目標(biāo)實(shí)現(xiàn)的過(guò)程:用圖表,電子表格,日記等等記錄下這段經(jīng)歷可以將目標(biāo)具體化。
10) Don’t beat yourself up and quit if you sometimes revert to old habits - treat it as a temporary setback.
即使時(shí)常會(huì)犯老毛病,不要?dú)怵H,將它看成是暫時(shí)的挫折。
