18. Volunteer. 参加志愿活动。
Related to the “be kind and generous” item above, but more specific. It's the holiday season right now … can you find the time to volunteer for a good cause, to spread some holiday cheer, to make the lives of others better? It'll be some of the best time you've ever spent, and an amazing side benefit is that you'll feel better about yourself, instantly.
和前面“友好且慷慨”那一项联系起来，但更针对性。现在是假日季节了…你可以花时间为好的事业做些志愿活动，洒播些节日的快乐，让他人的生活更加美好吗？那将是你最好的时光，产生的神奇的效果会立即让你自我感觉良好。

19. Be grateful. 怀着感恩的心。
I'm a firm believer in gratitude, as anyone who's been reading this blog for very long knows well. But I put it here because while being grateful for what you have in life, for what others have given you, is a very humbling activity … it can also be a very positive and rewarding activity that will improve your self-image.

我深信人应怀有感恩的，只要是长期看我博客的人都知道的。我把它写在这里的原因是，感激你现在所在的一切，感激别人给予你的一切，是一件非常谦逊的事情…这也是非常积极而有益的，它可以改变你的自我形象。阅读更多。

20. Exercise. 多锻炼。
Gosh, I seem to put this one on almost every list. But if I left it off this list I would be doing you a disservice. Exercise has been one of my most empowering activities in the last couple years, and it has made me feel so much better about myself.
天啊，我几乎把这个列在每个单子上，但如果我把它从单子就去除，又好像在做一件伤害你的事情。锻炼身体成了我几年来感到精力充沛的事情，也一直让我感觉良好。

All you have to do is take a walk a few times a week, and you'll see benefits. Start the habit.
你只需要一周出去小跑几次，你就会收获其中的益处，开始这种习惯吧。

21. Empower yourself with knowledge. 用知识武装自己。
Empowering yourself, in general, is one of the best strategies for building self-confidence. You can do that in many ways, but one of the surest ways to empower yourself is through knowledge. This is along the same vein as building competence and getting prepared … by becoming more knowledgeable, you'll be more confident … and you become more knowledgeable by doing research and studying. The Internet is a great tool, of course, but so are the people around you, people who have done what you want, books, magazines, and educational institutions.
一般来讲，让自己更强大是建立自信的最好方式。你可以采取很多方式来武装自己，但最好的方式是通过掌握知识。增长才干和时刻准备着是同一条思路…变得越来越有见识，你会更加有信心…你能通研究和学习变得更有见识。互联网是一个很棒的工具，当然，也有你的周围也有很多人，他们以前做过你想要做的事情，书籍，杂志和教育机构也是你可以利用的。

22. Do something you've been procrastinating on. 做那些你一直拖延的事情。
What's on your to-do list that's been sitting there? Do it first thing in the morning, and get it out of the way. You'll feel great about yourself.
什么事情一直在你要去做的事情的表单上呢？那么在早晨首先完成，解决掉，你将感觉良好的。

23. Get active. 活跃起来。
Doing something is almost always better than not doing anything. Of course, doing something could lead to mistakes … but mistakes are a part of life. It's how we learn. Without mistakes, we'd never get better. So don't worry about those. Just do something. Get off your butt and get active — physically, or active by taking steps to accomplish something.
做点事情总是比什么都不做要好。当然，做事情就可以犯错误…但犯错也是我们生活的一部分，这是我们学习的方式。不犯错误，我们就无法进步，所以不要再担心犯错误，去做些事情就好了。站起来，活跃起来…从行动上，或者采取步骤去完成什么事情。

24. Work on small things. 做些小事情。
Trying to take on a huge project or task can be overwhelming and daunting and intimidating for anyone, even the best of us. Instead, learn to break off small chunks and work in bursts. Small little achievements make you feel good, and they add up to big achievements. Learn to work like this all the time, and soon you'll be a self-confident maniac.
每个人都害怕和畏惧去做一个巨大的工程或承担重要任务，即使最出色的人都如此。相反，我们要学会把这些大块事情打碎，一小点一小点的完成。小的成就会让你感觉良好，累积起来就是一个大的成就。一直要学着这样工作，不用多久，你就会变成非常自信的狂人。

25. Clear your desk. 清理你的桌面。
This might seem like a small, simple thing (then again, for some of you it might not be so small). But it has always worked wonders for me. If my desk starts to get messy, and the world around me is in chaos, clearing off my desk is my way of getting a little piece of my life under control. It is the calm in the center of the storm around me. Here's how.
这可能看上去是一件非常简单的小事（再整理一次对有些人来说可能就不是那么小的事情了）。它总能给我带来惊奇的效果。如果我的桌子变得乱七八糟，我所在世界也仿佛杂乱无章。清理我的桌面是我控制我生活的点滴的方法。这里是如何去做。

Somehow I can't believe that there are any heights that can't be scaled by a man who knows the secrets of making dreams come true. This special secret, it seems to me, can be summarized in four C s. They are curiosity, confidence, courage, and constancy, and the greatest of all is confidence. When you believe in a thing, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionable. - Walt Disney
有时我会想，什么样的高度会吓退那些懂得如何将梦想成真的诀窍的人呢。对我来讲，这些特别的诀窍可以总结为四个C，他们是curiosity（好奇心），confidence（自信），courage（勇气），and constancy（坚持），它们中，最重要的是confidence（自信）。当你相信一件事情时，完完全全的相信它，直接的，毫无疑问的相信。——沃乐特·迪士尼
