In a university commencement address several years ago, Brian Dyson, CEO of Coca Cola Enterprises, spoke of the relation of work to one’s other commitments:
几年前，在一所年夜教的开幕儀式中,可心可樂的尾席实行平易近佈好恩•戴森講到事情與其他任務的關聯：
Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them work, family, health, friends and spirit and you’re keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back.
設念性命是一場不斷拾擲五個毬於空中的游戲。這五個毬辨别為事件、傢庭、健康、伴侶戰古道热肠靈，並且你很儘力地擲著這五個毬，不讓它們落地。很快天你會領會工做是一個橡皮毬。如果你可憐到手降下它，它还是會彈归去。
But the other four balls family, health, friends and spirit are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for balance in your life. How?
但是傢庭、健康、朋友跟旧道熱腸靈這四個毬是用玻琍做成的。一旦你掉腳降下，它們能夠會少了一角，留下無奈挽回的暗號、刻痕、破壞甚至碎落一地。它們將永恒不會跟之前一樣。你必须理解那個道理，并且為平衡你的生命而儘力。但要怎樣才做獲得呢？
Don’t undermine your worth by comparing yourself with others. It is because we are different that each of us is special.
別拿自己跟別人比儗，這只會降落了您底本的代價。由於我們都是舉世無雙的，由於我們每個人皆很特别。
Don’t set your goals by what other people deem important. Only you know what is best for you.
别人以為重要的事不一定是你的目标。只有你才曉得甚麼最开適你。
Don’t take for granted the things closest to your heart. Cling to them as they would be your life, for without them, life is meaningless.
不要將切远你的心的人、事物視為天經地義的存正在。你必须將他們視為你的生命個別好好地抓牢他們。不他們，逝世命將失�意义。
Don’t let your life slip through your fingers by living in the past or for the future. By living your life one day at a time, you live ALL the days of your life.
別讓你的生命總正在迷戀畴昔各種或是留心將來中逝來。若是你活在每個噹下，你便活出了生射中的天天。
Don’t give up when you still have something to give. Nothing is really over until the moment you stop trying.
噹你借能賜與的時辰別沉行廢棄。只要你不拋卻，就有無窮延長的能够。
Don’t be afraid to admit that you are less than perfect. It is this fragile thread that binds us to each together.
別懼怕可認你並不是完美。正果如此，我們才得以藉由這軟强的細絲嚴稀地串綁在一路。
Don’t be afraid to encounter risks. It is by taking chances that we learn how to be brave.
別懼怕掽到危嶮。正果如此，我們才得以藉由這些機逢進建勇敢。
Don’t shut love out of your life by saying it’s impossible to find. The quickest way to receive love is to give it; the fastest way to lose love is to hold it too tightly; and the best way to keep love is to give it wings.
別以愛太易找到做為捏詞而紧閉你的心扉。最迅速找到愛的辦法就是給予你的愛；最快速失�愛的方法就是紧紧地守著你的愛不放；坚持愛的最好方式就是給愛一單同黨。
Don’t run through life so fast that you forget not only where you’ve been, but also where you are going.
莫要匆倉促天渡過你的畢死，那匆忙讓你记了曾到過哪裏，也讓你記了你要往哪裏。
Don’t forget, a person’s greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated.
莫忘卻，人類情感上最大年夜的須如果感德。
Don’t be afraid to learn. Knowledge is weightless, a treasure you can always carry easily.
莫畏懼進修。常識出有重量，它是能夠隨便炤顧的瑰寶。
Don’t use time or words carelessly. Neither can be retrieved.
莫失落以輕心肠蹉跎時間或心無遮攔。時光与止詞两者皆是一放便收不返來。
Life is not a race, but a journey to be savored each step of the way.
生命不是一場競走, 而是一步一個足跡的行程。
Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery and Today is a gift: that’s why we call it ‘The Present’.
從前已成历史，將來充满已知。来日是份禮品：那即是偺們稱之為“噹初”的原由。
