4) Play. One of the greatest things about the Olympics is that they are called games. This is a wonderful metaphor which reminds us that while sports (and life) can be intense and pressure-filled, they are really just games we are playing. The games played at the Olympics, not un-like in many aspects of our own lives, are played at a pretty high level and are done so with fairly high stakes. But, at the end of the day, they are all just games. Each athlete in Vancouver started in their sport as a child because it was fun, not because they wanted to win a gold medal, be on TV, or get big endorsement deals. This is a great reminder for all of us. We often get so serious and caught up in results, we forget to play. Play is essential. Scientific studies have shown that the same brain waves are generated in a high state of play as in a high state of meditation.
玩樂。奧運(yùn)會上被提及的最多的詞就是“games(游戲)”。這是一個很有意思的詞,它一方面提醒我們,這是一項(xiàng)體育盛會,同時又暗示我們所有的體育都是一場游戲。同樣的道理也可以用在我們的生活上,有研究顯示,一個人的大腦在玩樂的狀態(tài)下是最活躍的。
