2018的下半年開始啦！回顧上半年你都做了什么？是充實或是虛度時光？尼爾-吳在網站上分享了一些讓我們的生活在短時間內充滿意義的方法，我們一起看看吧！

     交朋友但不只是社交

Your friends will go a lot further than the professional contacts you make, especially since only one of the two groups is invested in your personal happiness.

多和你的朋友溝通交流比你聯系專業人士交流探討要強，尤其是專業人士和朋友圈子這兩組人群，只有你的朋友圈子才是你個人幸福的投資方向。

2. Become an expert by learning as much as you can and deeply seeking out the things you are curious about.

     盡量通過多學習的方式成為專家，并對自己所好奇的方面執著地探求。

Find the things you enjoy and practice the skills you want to develop. If you can achieve expertise then it will be easy to obtain an audience.

找到你喜歡做的事情并爭取達到熟能生巧的地步。如果你能達到專業的高度，那么就會很容易贏得觀眾。

3. Volunteer to help out those less fortunate.

     自愿幫助那些不幸的人

In the process you will gain a ton of new perspective and will better understand other people’s real problems. In a society that always looks upward, these people are being forgotten easily.

在這個過程中你會獲得多個新的視角，會更加理解別人所遇到的實際問題。在我們當今這個非常勢力的社會中，這個人群很容易被遺忘。

4. Become as independent as possible

     盡量自立

Even though you work in a big company, you should constantly make small steps to reduce your dependence on your job. Write a book, build an app, or start a small business on the side. Release your inner entrepreneur.

即使你在一家大公司工作，你也應該經常做出小小的改變，減少依賴工作的程度，讓自己不那么依賴這份工作。寫本書、編個小程序或做個小生意。讓你內心的企業家潛質充分釋放出來。

5. Don’t spend too much time worrying about your personal brand.

     不要在你的個人品牌力上浪費太多時間

Accomplish things, and the recognition will follow.

把事情做好，大家心中都有一桿秤。


6. Stop treating life as a competition and do things for their own sake.

     別把生活當成比賽，做事只是為了自身利益。

Genuine interest should be what drives you to improve yourself, rather than a desire to beat others. Find a community of people who are interested in the same things as you do, and drive each other to keep improving.

你是真心想著要完善自己才做的，并不是希望打敗別人。和感興趣的人一起做，這樣會互相帶動、精益求精。 

你是如何充實自己，讓生活充滿意義的？
