So what I'm going to talk about is first of all, define it so that we understand it. Because it is misunderstood.
所以我要談的第一點 先定義以便理解 因為它常常被誤解
I'm going to talk about characteristics. We are going to get to that next time only. The characteristics-what it means to be a perfectionist? Then I'm going to talk about the consequences. And then, how it's possible to be both successful and happy.
我會談談完美主義的特征 我們下節課才會講特征…成為完美主義者代表了什么?然后我還會講講后果以及如何保持成功與快樂的平衡
Again, the question we ask in goal setting lecture, the question that essentially we are asking throughout the class-it's not about giving up success; it's not about giving up the conventional currency. But it's about also enjoying the ultimate currency more importantly. Because it is the ultimate currency.
我們在目標設定課上問的問題 這一問題我們在課堂上會經常重復 不是為了放棄成功 放棄日常生活中的金錢 而是更好地享受我們的幸福 因為它是終極貨幣

Then we understand what is the source of perfection; where does it come. Because if we understand where it comes from, we are more likely to be able to overcome it.
然后我們理解完美主義的源頭是什么 它來自哪里 因為如果我們了解了它是如何產生的 才更有可能克服它
And then, most importantly, how do we overcome it? And how do we help other people overcome perfectionism?
然后 最重要的是 如何克服 如何幫助別人克服完美主義
And again, not giving up their ambition, not giving up hard work, not giving up pain of failure-because that's inevitable. But simply have a more rational, a more helpful, a more empowering approach toward failure.
不是讓他們放棄志向 或者停止努力工作 也不是消除失敗時的痛苦 這是不可避免的 而是獲得一種更理性 更有益 更可控的處理失敗的方法
OK. So let's get to work. I need a volunteer. I need a volunteer, but before you put your hand up, it's a very special kind of volunteer.
好了 我們開始前 我需要一名志愿者 你們舉手前 注意我的要求 我要一個很特別的志愿者
