2017年，哪些事情最能点燃你的灵魂？

2017年，哪些事情最能点燃你的灵魂？

I couldn’t resist the “What quote will define your life in 2017?” challenge on Facebook last week. When I saw the results, I was pleasantly surprised at how accurate it was. It pretty much nailed my outlook on life.

我忍不住参加了上周在Facebook发起的“一句话预言你2017年的生活”的挑战。当我看了这些结果，我很惊喜它是如此的准确，几乎概括出我个人的生活观念。

So as 2016 comes to a close, rather than looking back, I’m looking forward. And, focusing on these five things that really set my soul on fire.

所以，既然2016年即将结束了，与其回顾过往，我选择向前看。然后关注在下面这5件真正点燃我的灵魂的事情。

1. Double down on people. 在人的方面下重注。

Technology is transforming how we work and live, but it’s human creativity that accelerates progress. Technology enables people to take on more interesting and higher-value work -- so we need to provide learning opportunities to help them step up to these new challenges.

虽然科学技术正在改变我们的工作和生活方式，不过人类的活动确实在推动社会的发展。技术能够让人们承担更多有趣和高质的工作——所以我们要提供学习机会帮助他们接触这些新挑战。

2. Try to be my best professionally and personally.  尽力做到专业与个人方面的最佳。

In 2017, I will continue to build on my Thrive journey. By being transparent about both my successes and my setbacks, I hope to foster a community of like-minded people who will dispel the myth that burnout is the price we pay for success.

在2017年，我会继续完成我的名为“Thrive”的项目。公正对待我的成功与挫折，我希望构建一个汇聚志趣相投的人们的社区，共同破除“倦怠就是成功的代价”的谣言。

3. Lift as I rise.  互帮互助，共同发展。

The next generation holds so much promise. And, I can help these emerging leaders by giving them opportunities to learn and the safety net to fail forward on the path to achieving their aspirations.

年轻一代许下太多的承诺，而我能为这些新晋的领导者提供学习的机会，还有预防失败的安全网，以此帮助他们追逐自己的梦想。

4. Celebrate more with my team.  多与团队庆祝。

They are simply awesome. I am very blessed to work with such smart and compassionate people. And, we should take more time to celebrate the amazing things we’re doing for our people and our business.

他们真的非常有才。我很感恩能够与这些精明有热情的人们一起工作。所以，我们应该多与他们一起庆祝我们为人们和公司所付出的美好时刻。

5. Family. Family. Family.  家庭。家庭。家庭。

In honor of my mom, who was a teacher, I’m going to close with a quote from a beloved American author, Mark Twain.

我的母亲曾经是一位老师，为了感谢她，我准备引用我最爱的美国作家马克•吐温的一句名言来结束这篇文章。

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

“从现在起20年内，相比你做了的事情，你会更后悔自己没有做的事情。所以张开你的帆，远离安全湾，迎风而行，去探索，去做梦，去发现吧！”

What sets YOUR soul on fire? I hope you are inspired to boldly chase what you are passionate about in 2017. Best wishes for an extraordinary new year.

对于你来说，哪些事情能够点燃你的灵魂？我希望你能够在2017年大胆地追逐你的梦想。祝福你有一个美好的新年。
