『When was the last time you did something for the first time』

When did you actually do what your first impulse, or that nagging, persistent feeling is asking you to do?
還記得上次因為一時興起的念頭而去做的事情嗎？或是那總是讓你有點擔心害怕、但又不停地在心中驅使你去完成的事情嗎？ 

It is easier to stay where you are, do what you know about, be safe, not push. Take the same route, order the same meal, hang out with the same people, do the same job.
如果你總是待在同樣的地方、做熟悉的事情、讓自己感到安全與舒適，走同樣的路，點同樣的餐點，和相同的人相處，做同樣的工作，那實在是沒什麼大不了的。 

But if you do not constantly test your boundaries, you will never find out what you are capable of.
如果你不持續地測試自己的能耐，你就永遠不會知道，還有什麼是自己所能辦到的事情。 

If you always go over where the bar is the lowest, you will never know how high you can jump.

如果你總是跨過障礙的最低限度，你就永遠無法得知自己所能觸及的至高點。

We say: Jump now!
我會說：就是現在，跳吧！ 

NOW is the absolutely most perfect time to try those new things, to explore new cities, to taste new foods, to start a business, to write a book, to enter a marathon, to go skinny dipping, to start playing squash, to start a blog, to give that dinner party, to propose.
“現在” 絕對就是最佳的時刻去嘗試新鮮的事物，去探索陌生的城市、嚐嚐不一樣的食物、開創一個事業、寫一本書、加入馬拉松賽跑、去裸泳、去玩的沒玩過的運動、寫寫部落格、辦個聚餐、甚至求婚吧。 

NOW is the time to find out what you are here to do. How much can you do? What can you achieve?. How much fun can you have? How much can you give?
“現在” 就是去發掘你存在的意義。去看看你到底能做多少？能達到什麼樣的地步？還有多少樂趣你不曾有經歷過？甚至不知道，其實你也能有所貢獻？

NOW is the ideal time to experience your life. To LIVE your life. We all know this is not a rehearsal, yet we live as if it were.

“現在” 就是體驗人生的最佳時刻。活出你自己。我們都知道人生不能重來，但我們卻過得好像能夠再來一次似的。

And we are not talking about pushing so that you’d be approved by others. Or achieve their goals or what they think you should be achieving. Or pushing beyond your healthy or safe limits.
我並不是在說服你去做那些會讓人認同你的事情，或是去完成他人的目標、或是那些別人認為你應該去達成的事情。更不是要去強迫你做些已超越你的健康或著安全的極限。 

But we are talking about using all of your talents, skills and abilities now. Because NOW is all any one of us has. And because that is why we are on this earth. To live our own lives fully.

我是在告訴你說，現在就能馬上善用自己的天資、技巧與能力。我們每一個人所擁有的一切就是現在，那是我們能夠生活在這地球上的原因。因此，盡情活出自己的人生吧。

And when we do, we will find millions of new reasons to be grateful. We will find hundreds of ways to give more. We will find out how wonderful life is.

一旦我們去做了，我們就會發現一百萬個值得感恩的理由，也會發現無數個奉獻更多，最後我們會體認到，人生其實是多麼的美好。
