7 cardinal rules in life:
生活中的7条基本原则:

1. Make peace with your past, so it doesn’t spoil your present. Your past does not define your future – your actions and beliefs do.
坦然面对过去,这样它才不会破坏你的现在。你的过去不会决定你的未来——是你的行动和信仰决定你的未来。

2. What others think of you is none of your business. It’s how much you value yourself and how important you think you are.
别人怎么看待你和你无关。重要的是你有多珍视自己以及你认为自己有多重要。

3. Time heals almost everything, give time, time. Pain will be less hurting. Scars make us who we are; they explain our life and why we are the way we are. They challenge us and force us to be stronger.
时间能治愈一切,慢慢来,慢慢来。痛苦会越来越淡。伤疤成就了我们;它们诠释着我们的生活,诠释了为什么我们会是现在的样子。它们挑战着我们,逼着我们变得更强大。

4. No one is the reason for your own happiness, except you yourself. Waste no time and effort searching for peace and contentment and joy in the world outside.
没有任何人是你幸福的原因,除了你自己。不要浪费时间和精力向外部世界寻求宁静、满足或者欢愉。

5. Don’t compare your life with others, you have no idea what their journey is all about. If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we would grab ours back as fast as we could.
不要拿自己的生活跟别人比,你不知道他们的旅程到底如何。如果我们把自己的问题全部打包然后看看其他人的,我们会毫不犹豫地马上夺回自己的那份。

6. Stop thinking too much, it’s alright not to know all the answers. Sometime there is no answer, not going to be any answer, never has been an answer. That’s the answer! Just accept it, move on, NEXT!
不要再多想了,不知道所有问题的答案很正常。有时候是没有答案的,不会有任何答案的,从来不存在过答案的。这就是答案!接受现实吧,继续走,下一站!

7. Smile, you don’t own all the problems in the world. A smile can brighten the darkest day and make life more beautiful. It is a potential curve to turn a life around and set everything straight.
微笑,不是世界上所有问题都发生在你身上。微笑能照亮最暗的天空,让生活更美丽。微笑很可能是生活的转折点,让所有麻烦都迎刃而解。
