Self-Discipline Matters 培养自律能力 在这个假期弯道超车

 You are the master of your life. You decide and choose what you want to be. Without self-discipline, you’ll only achieve a fraction of your true potential. We could only achieve our goal through self-discipline, the best way is to do it until your wish and your will become one. If you want to turn your dreams into reality you have to go after it with 100% focus and determination. Decide, commit, and dedicate yourself to achieving your goals. Your goals should be so big they make you grow, learn, fail, and improve. You will only be able to see your goals through if you have discipline!

 你才是自己人生的主人。你决定和选择了你想要的一切。没有自律性，你只能达到全部潜力的一部分。只有自律才能帮助我们实现目标。最好的方法就是坚持不懈，直到将你的愿望与意志合二为一。想要梦想成真，就要用百分百的专注和决心去不断地努力，将自己全身心地投入进去。你的目标会使你不断地成长、学习、失败，从而进步。只有自律能让你成就梦想！

   Every person needs to be self-disciplined in order to achieve the success that we wanted to have. For my current situation, self-discipline is even more important than before. As we are all learning in our homes, teachers can’t pressure us to do our assignments like how they did back in the school days. Everything is across the internet and we have to have control over ourselves in order to improve. Self-discipline is an important quality for our home learning: if we are very self-disciplined during this extended period then the school days will be much easier when we are back.

   每一个想要获得成功的人都需要有自律的能力。就目前的情况而言，自律更是显得尤为重要。由于都是网络授课，老师们不能像以前在学校那样盯着我们的作业情况。所有的学习都是通过网络，因此为了提高学习质量，我们需要自我约束。对于宅家学习，自律是一项很重要的品质。如果在这个超长假期，我们能够坚持自律，那么回到校园后我们就能很轻松地跟上学习的节奏。

  Self-discipline can help you resist temptation and lure, and it is not only for one occupation. As an athlete, you should control your weight by having a healthy diet. As students, we should put efforts in study and planning our future for ourselves. Without self-discipline, we are not able to concentrate on study, or things we should do. Video games can be a lure, TV program can be a lure. In this case, to show we are self- disciplined, we should arrange our time wisely, we should do the fitness challenge regularly in order to keep a fit body. This is not for someone else. This is for ourselves.

 自律使你能不被其他事物干扰，它适用于各行各业。运动员需要通过健康饮食来控制体重。作为学生，我们则需要努力学习并规划自己的未来。缺乏自律会使我们无法专注于学习或其他应该做的事情上。电子游戏、电视等，这些都会成为一种干扰。目前，我们的自律应该体现在合理安排自己的时间或定期做运动以保持健康的体魄等这些方面。所有的这一切不是为了任何人，而是为了我们自己。

自律养成指南

Tips on Develpment of Self-Discipline

早睡早起

Have a good sleep

“能控制早晨的人，方能控制人生。”早睡早起，才能精神充沛地应对一天地计划和学习。良好的睡眠习惯能够提高处理问题的能力，也能增强记忆力。

A good sleep makes you energetic enough to deal with the work and study. It also has been shown to improve problem-solving skills and enhance memory performance.

“凡是预则立，不预则废。”

制定学习计划可以帮助你对整个学期的学习有明确的规划，同时也能很清楚地了解到自己的每一份收获。对于目前远程学习来说，学习计划显得尤为重要，因此你需要在没有老师时刻在身边监督提醒的情况下进行自我约束，才能顺利完成各项学习任务。

A study plan is an effective way to help you navigate through your whole semester, and hold you accountable for your own learning outcomes. Study plans are particularly important for online students, since you need to have self-discipline and determination to complete your studies without the constant reminders of an instructor.

养成做笔记的习惯

Take notes

记笔记能帮助你弄清课堂上的重要概念。即使你的记忆力很强，也不可能记住老师说的所有内容。因此，笔记就能在你需要的时候，比如写论文、写作业、进行课堂讨论时提供参考。

Taking notes is a great way to help you identify the importance of concepts covered in class. Even if you have a great memory, you simply won't be able to remember everything the teacher says. A permanent written record that you can refer to later can prove indispensable when it's time to write an essay or take a test on the materials discussed in class.

适当放松及奖励自己

Take a break & reward yourself

欲速则不达。一味拼命学习反而可能适得其反。要学会适当的休息和放松。对于自己的良好表现，可以给予适当的奖励，鼓励自己更持久地养成自律的好习惯。

If you try for everything at once you will not be able to achieve desired results as the task will look intimidating and might lead to failure and a disappointment. Schedule regular breaks so that you can treat yourself to a reward for the work well done in the meantime if you are looking for a way to be disciplined.
