It's crazy how quickly time is going by. Every year, I make goals for myself and can never seem to accomplish them all. It's like I try to cram all of these tasks -- for instance, starting a company, winning the lottery, getting a book deal, creating a TV show, etc. -- into a year, but most are not actually all that realistic. Like, I'm probably not going to become famous overnight, right? However, beyond the many things I hope to accomplish some time in the near future, there are a couple of things I -- and you -- should do in the new year no matter what.
時間如白駒過隙,每年我都給自己制定目標,卻從沒能夠實現。好像我總試圖把這些計劃——比如,開公司、贏彩票、出本書、創辦電視秀等等,全部塞到一年中去;可事實上大部分都不切實際。就像我不可能一夜暴富一樣,是吧?不過,撇開許多我希望能在不久的將來實現的目標,下面這些——我認為大家無論如何都應該在新年里做好。

積極進取。
Whether you're going to the gym twice a day every day or you're taking walks around your neighborhood three times a week, make sure you are doing some sort of physical activity on the regular. Don't say you're too busy for it... we're all busy. You just need to make time for it (especially if you sit at a desk all week long). Whether that time is on the weekend, at 5:00 a.m. every day, or right before you go to bed, make it happen. Five minutes of crunches is better than nothing.
無論你打算每天去兩次健身房,還是每周在小區內散三次步,都應保證自己有規律地進行體能運動。不要推說太忙沒時間運動——大家都很忙。你只需擠點時間就行(尤其當你整個星期都久坐在桌前的時候)。不論是在周末還是每天早上5:00,或者睡覺之前,只要有時間,就去運動。做五分鐘仰臥起坐總比一點都不運動的好。
