One will make a lot of mistakes in his or her life.
一个人在一生中会犯很多错误。

This rule works for everybody.
这个道理对每个人都适用。

No one can avoid it.
没有人可以避免。

But there are 3 mistakes you should do your best to avoid.
不过，有3中错误，你真的该尽可能去避免。

The first mistake is to constantly complain about things.
第一种错误是“一直在抱怨”。

Almost everybody keeps doing it because it seems like that complaining makes us feel good.
几乎所有人都这么做，因为抱怨似乎会让我们感觉很好。

But that's only an illusion .
但这其实是一种假象。

People who get satisfied with only complaining stop doing anything that actually makes a difference. In the end, these people achieve nothing.
那些仅仅抱怨一下就满足了的人，是不会去做真正有用的事情的。最终，他们将一事无成。

The second mistake is to constantly try to outweigh everybody around you.
第二种错误是“想把身边的所有人都比下去”。

We can not survive this world alone.
我们没有办法只身一人在这个世界上幸存。

We have to cooperate with others because everybody's own skills and time are limited.
我们必须和别人合作，因为一个人自身的技能和时间都是有限的。

If you take every pitiful chance to prove yourself better than others, you'll only make yourself miserable in the end.
如果你非要抓住每个可悲的小机会去证明自己比身边的人行，你最终只会把自己弄得惨不忍睹。

The third mistake is to be kind without any condition.
第三种错误是“无条件地善良”。

There is too much kindness in this world.
这个世界上的善良已经够多了。

Some of them are worthless.
其中有一些是没有价值的。

What this world doesn't have enough is rationality.
这个世界缺的，是理智。

Kindness without reasoning is the same as evil.
无条件的善良与邪恶无异。

Have you make any mistake of these 3?
所以你有犯过这3个错误中的任何一个吗？

If you have, now it's the time to stop.
如果有，是时候停止了。
