At the end of year I took a good hard look at who had exhibited considerable resilience in 2017, and made a list of my favorites. Not only do they serve as great examples of great empathy, optimism, self-efficacy, hope and initiative; they also are the most likely to flourish in the next year. Learn from what they did in 2017, and let them inspire your efforts to thrive in 2017.
年底的时候我仔细观察了一下2017年展现出相当大恢复力的人,并列了一张“我的最爱清单”。他们不仅仅树立了极具同情心、乐观主义、自信心、充满希望和首创精神的好榜样;他们也是下一年最可能活跃的人物。学学2017年他们的所作所为,让他们在2017年激励你为茁壮成长而努力。
蒂姆·库克出柜。
How many openly gay CEOs of globally important, culturally significant, multibillion dollar companies can you think of? That's right. One. When Tim Cook publicly acknowledged his sexual orientation on October 30, he did so not only for himself, but to use his position and power to help others in the struggle for self-acceptance and equality. He laid his privacy on the line to stand up for his beliefs and pave the way for others.
你能想到,有多少拥有全球性的重要地位,文化上具有重大意义,身价数十亿美金公司的CEO是公开的同性恋?对了,就一位。当蒂姆·库克在10月30日公开承认自己的性取向时,他不仅仅是为了自己,也是利用他的地位和权利帮助那些仍为自我接纳和平等权利而挣扎的人,他将自己的隐私暴露于危险之中,只为坚持自己的信仰,为他人铺平道路。
Emma Watson
Emma Watson announced a new movement for gender equality.
艾玛·沃森为两性平等宣告新运动。
In our work with stress management, we see that people connecting to a high level of purpose -- something that reflects their deepest values -- improves their ability to weather tough times, helps make the world a better place. Emma Watson displayed that connection when she took the floor at the United Nations and called for a new feminist movement, HeForShe, that specifically challenges and invites men to join the work of gender equality.
在压力管理上,我们发现人们和最高目标之间的联系——那些反映了他们核心价值观的——提高了他们度过难关的能力,并帮助使这个世界变得更好。当艾玛·沃森踏上了联合国的舞台,并提倡新女性主义运动“HeForShe”时,她展示了两者的联系,这尤其改变和激励了男人参与到两性平等中去。
Ebola
Medical workers and professionals fought against Ebola.
医务工作者和专业人员对抗埃博拉的战斗。
The doctors and nurses, aid workers and organizers who offered to care for those infected with the Ebola virus -- knowing full well the risks they faced -- showed core resilience traits of empathy, compassion, and optimism. Yes, optimism that the lives of the sick people mattered; that lives could be saved; that their efforts could make a difference. It's no wonder TIME magazine chose them as their Person of the Year.
那些为感染埃博拉病毒的人提供帮助的医生和护士、救援人员和组织者——完全清楚自己面临的风险——却展现出同情心、怜悯心和乐观主义的核心韧性特质。是的,乐观是病人最为需要的;这些生命能被起死回生;他们的努力会创造奇迹。这也难怪《时代》杂志选择他们成为年度风云人物。
Malala Yousafzai
Malala Yousafzai was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
马拉拉·尤素福获得诺贝尔和平奖。
Malala Yousafzai's believes that she has a right to an education. She believes that all girls have a right to education, despite a continued death threat from the Taliban. This year, the Nobel Committee recognized the profound resilience that helps her to advocate on behalf of girls worldwide whose right to an education is at risk or denied.
马拉拉·尤素福相信,自己有受教育的权利。尽管一直受到塔利班的死亡威胁,她仍然相信,所有女孩都有接受教育的权利。今年,诺贝尔委员会意识到深刻的韧性让她得以代表全世界,那些没有权利接受教育,或是该权利岌岌可危的女孩们发出自己的声音。
SIRI
SIRI helped a boy with autism connect with the world.
SIRI帮助了一位患自闭症的男孩与世界对话。
