序言

前言 只为今天 Just for Today Just for today I will try to live through this day only and not tackle my whole life problem at once. I can do something for twelve hours that would appall me if I had to keep it up for a lifetime. Just for today I will be happy. This assumes to be true what Abraham Lincoln said, that "Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be." Just for today I will adjust myself to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my "luck" as it comes. Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will not be a mental loafer. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration. Just for today I will exercise my soul in three ways. I will do somebody a good turn and not get found out: If anybody knows of it, it will not count. I will do at least two things I don't want to do-just for exercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt: they may be hurt, but today I will not show it. Just for today I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly, talk low, act courteously, criticize not one bit, and try not to improve or regulate anybody but myself. Just for today I will have a program, I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will save myself from two pests: hurry and indecision. Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself and relax. During this half hour, sometime, I will try to get a better perspective of my life. Just for today I will be unafraid. Especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful, and to believe that as I give to the world, so the world will give to me. 【译文】 只为今天，我将会努力仅仅为今天而活，而不是立刻去解决我生命中遇到的难题。我可以12个小时都做同样的事，但若一辈子每天都这样过，会让人恐惧不已。 只为今天，我会很快乐。亚伯拉罕•林肯说得对，“对于大多数人来说，他们认为自己有多幸福，就有多幸福”。 只为今天，我会自我调整，让自己去适应事物的本来面目，而不是想方设法苛求万物遵循我的意愿来运转。“好运”来的时候，我会抓住它。 只为今天，我会努力让内心变得强大。我会学习，学一些有用的东西。我不要成为思想上懒散的人。我将会读一些需要下苦工、思考和专注才能读懂的书。 只为今天，我会用三种方法磨练自己的灵魂。我会做好事不留名，若被人发现就不算数。我至少要做两件不是只为了磨练的事情。我不会让任何人看到我的感情受到伤害：也许它们可能很痛，但是今天我不想表现出来。 只为今天，我会变得和蔼可亲。我会展现出我的最佳状态，穿着得体、言谈温和、行为礼貌、绝不吹毛求疵，试着提高并调整自己而非他人。 只为今天，我会制定一项计划，也许我不会严格执行，但我一定要有这个计划。我会将自己从两个危害中解救出来：仓促行事和优柔寡断。 只为今天，我会独自静静地呆上半小时，让自己放松。在这半小时里，某些时刻，我会对自己的生活有个更美好的期望。 只为今天，我会变得无所畏惧。尤其是，我不会再害怕享受美好，我相信我给予世界的，世界也会给予我，付出就有回报。
