JustforToday就为今天
Just for today I will be happy. This assumes to be true what Abraham Lincoln said, that “Most folks are as happy as they make up their minds to be.”
Just for today I will adjust myself to what is, and not try to adjust everything to my own desires. I will take my “luck” as it comes.
Just for today I will try to strengthen my mind. I will study. I will learn something useful. I will not be a mental loafer2. I will read something that requires effort, thought and concentration. Just for today I will exercise my soul in three ways. I will do somebody a good turn3 and not get found out: If anybody knows of it, it will not count. I will do at least two things I don’t want to do—just for exercise. I will not show anyone that my feelings are hurt: they may be hurt, but today I will not show it.
Just for today I will be agreeable. I will look as well as I can, dress becomingly4, talk low, act courteously5, criticize not one bit, and try not to improve or regulate6 anybody but myself.
Just for today I will have a program, I may not follow it exactly, but I will have it. I will save myself from two pests7: hurry and indecision.
Just for today I will have a quiet half hour all by myself and relax. During this half hour, sometime, I will try to get a better perspective8 of my life.
Just for today I will be unafraid. Especially I will not be afraid to enjoy what is beautiful, and to believe that as I give to the world, so the world will give to me.
就为今天，我将认真过完当下此日，而可不能赶忙着手解决我人一辈子的整个问题。即使这问题我终生挥之不去，令我惊奇，我也只能努力十二小时。 就为今天，我一定要欢乐。亚伯拉罕·林肯说：“大多数人欢乐的程度，确实是他们打定主意要欢乐的程度。”此言不虚。
就为今天，我将调整自我适应现实，而可不能强求万物以遂我心。然后，既来之则安之，“听天由命”。
就为今天，我将努力提升脑力。我将学些有用的东西，而不作精神上的懒汉。有些需要全神贯注、认真思索的书籍，我会努力研读。
就为今天，我将以此三法锤炼灵魂：一.助人而不为人知，一为人知，即不作数；二. 自己不喜爱（但有用）的事，至少要做两件——哪怕只为锤炼；三. 情感受伤不形于外。伤则伤也，今天我不表露。
就为今天，我将令人愉快：容光焕发，衣着得体，谈吐斯文，举止文雅，只言人善不言人恶。除了自己之外，绝不试图改进谁，调整谁。
就为今天，我一定要拟订打算。可能可不能严格照办；然而不能没有。这将使我免于两大祸害：草率从事和犹疑不决。
就为今天，我将抽出半小时，独自静坐，完全放松。此中某一刻，我将找到更好的角度，来凝视我的生活。
就为今天，我将不再可怕，专门是可不能可怕享受美好的事物。我会毫无顾虑地相信，既然我对这世界有所付出，它一定对我有所回报。 =========================
