英文原文

Any time you start something new,any time you set out on a new path,any time you move out of your comfort zone,you're going to go through what is basically,if you could imagine a bell curve of frustration—alright,you're going to be excited, you're going to be pumped,you're going to have the momentum to carry you through the first two or three or four days,maybe it's a week, maybe it's three weeks,it's different for everybody.

每当你开始尝试新事物，每当你踏上新的道路，每当你走出自己的舒适区，你都会经历一种，如果你能想象出挫败感的钟形曲线——好的，你会感到兴奋，你会感到精力充沛，你会有动力带你度过最初的两三天，也许是一周，也许是三周，这对每个人来说都是不同的。

But the point is,is that when you get excited about something,we have a natural energy that pushes us through.

但关键是，当你对某件事感到兴奋时，我们有一种自然的能量推动我们前进。

But what happens when that energy fades?What happens when you start to get frustrated?What happens when you start to feel like a grind, and things get grueling and they get gritty,and they get tough,and it gets harder to move through the process every single day?What happens then?Most people fucking quit, okay.And here's the fucked up thing about quitting:when things are really fucking hard,because they're about to get easier,they're about to get more fun, okay.

但当这股能量消退时，会发生什么？当你开始感到沮丧时，会发生什么？当你开始觉得这是件苦差事，事情变得艰难而费力，变得棘手，变得艰难，而且每天更难坚持这个过程时，接下来会发生什么？大多数人都会选择放弃，对吧。而关于放弃，最糟糕的事情是：当事情真的变得异常艰难时，因为它们即将变得更容易，它们即将变得更有趣，对吧。
