I was driving with a friend recently and telling him about some projects that really excited me. I mentioned a new book I’m working on, an article I’m writing and this new hobby of adventure motorcycling in the desert. He interrupted me and said, "How do you stay so motivated and so excited about things?"
It caught me off guard. I hadn ’t really considered the "why" behind my list of activities.【F1】
But as I thought about it, I realized that the one aspect each of these projects had to make me so motivated—the common thread—was the feeling of being in just a little over my head.
In other words, doing things despite the fact that, as the marketing guru Seth Godin likes to say, "this might not work."
That may sound a little counterintuitive. It’ s easy to wonder how doing stuff that makes you uncomfortable, and might not even work, is a source of motivation.
【F2】
I posted on Instagram about constantly getting in a little over my head, and my friend Dallas Hartwig told me about this concept called "hormesis", a phenomenon by which something that could significantly impair or even kill you in high doses and can make you stronger in low doses.
Or as the National Institutes of Health puts it, "In the fields of biology and medicine, hormesis is defined as an adaptive response of cells and organisms to a moderate (usually intermittent) stress."
Of course, I thought. What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. It’s not a new concept. 【F3】
It’s well documented that the way to grow muscle is to rip the muscle tissue, and then give it time to re-grow.
You give it stress, then rest, and it comes back on the other side stronger than it was before.
I know that adventures are not for everyone. I know they can feel scary and intimidating. 【F4】
But making a habit of seeking adventures, in spite of how scary they are, may be the secret to staying motivated about the things you do.
And that, if nothing else, confers a key economic benefit onto anyone who experiences it. 【F5】
Even if we set aside all the tangible benefits that come from stepping outside our comfort zone, it is intuitively obvious that being more excited about your work is a surefire way to improve your performance—and turn your various ventures into adventures.
【F3】
选项
答案
长出肌肉的方式是撕裂肌肉组织,再让它有时间重新生长,这一点便充分证明了以上观念。
解析
(1)document译为“证明”,rip译为“撕裂”,tissue译为“(生物的)组织”。
(2)英汉语言之间存在差异,英语往往是判断或结论在前,事实或描写在后,而汉语则是由事实到结论。翻译时可以采用“换序法”,先说“长出肌肉的方式是撕裂肌肉组织,再让它有时间重新生长”,再说“这一点便充分证明了以上观念”。
