When I start the book, I talk about thinking this rally championship would make me happy. And it did. For 4 hours. And then back again to base level.
在書中一開始的地方我談及，冠軍賽會讓我開心,的確讓我開心了四小時，但之后我又回到基礎水平
Professors who get tenures think that is what would make them happy for the rest of their lives- the attainment of that goal. It doesn't. They go back to base level of happiness, whether they get it, or don't get it.
獲得終身職位的教授以為這事會讓他們余生都快樂，那個目標的實現。其實不然，他們回到了幸福的基礎水平，無論他們是否實現了這個目標
The key is to learn, to enjoy the process. And one of the roles of the goals is to liberate us so that we can enjoy the process.
關鍵是學習，享受這個過程。目標的其中一個作用是解放我們，那樣我們就能享受這個過程
Goals are means toward the present end, which is taking a lot of goal theory and turning it around. This explains why so many high achievers are unhappy. This explains why so many high achievers turn to drugs and to alcohol.
目標是獲得結果的手段。這與許多目標理論背道而馳，這解釋了為什么如此多的成功者不快樂，這也解釋了為什么如此多的成功者沉淪于藥品及酒精
By the way, today even more so than in the past- maybe today we know about it more than in the past. Going into rehab centers constantly. Coming out and going back.
如今這樣的人比以前更多，也許是如今我們了解得更多，他們常進心理治療中心，那樣進進出出
And we ask ourselves, "why? How could it be?" Those people who seemingly have it all. Who seemingly have it all. Fame. Fortune. Beauty. Anyone they want. The life that most people in the world dream about.
我們問“為什么會這樣？”表面上看那些人似乎已得到一切，似乎已得到一切：名聲，財富，美人，他們想要的任何人，大部分人夢寐以求的生活
