    How to Build Your Life

    创造自己的生活

    Anonymous/佚名

    Every person creates his or her own reality.Authorship of your life is one of your absolute rights；yet so often people deny that they have the ability to  the life they desire.They look past the fundamental truth that it is not our external resources that determine our success or failure，but rather our own belief in ourselves and our willingness to create a life according to our highest aspirations .

    Clearly，the challenge here is to create and own your own reality.When you begin to live your life understanding that what you make of it is up to you，you are able to design it according to your authentic choices and desires.You will learn lessons here，such as responsibility and limitlessness，which will lead you to the life you were meant to live.These lessons provide you with the essential tools you need in order to take command of your life.

    To take responsibility means you admit your accountability and acknowledge your influence and role in the circumstances in which you find yourself.It means you are answerable for your behavior and you fully accept any consequences created by your actions.

    生活是由自己创造的。而且，人人都享有创造生活的权利。但如今，人们总是说自己没有能力描绘美好的生活。实际上，他们忽视了一个根本的事实——决定我们成功与失败的并不在于任何外部条件，而在于我们是否有实现自己心中热望的信心与积极性。

    无疑，这种挑战就是如何创造并掌握自己的生活。一旦你明白自己是生活的创造者，那么你就可以按照自己的选择与希望来创造生活。在这里，你将会学到如何承担责任与发挥无限潜能，它们会带你走进你想要的生活，并教会你如何主宰生活。

    承担责任指的是要认可自己应承担的责任，并了解自己对周围环境所产生的影响和作用。这就意味着，你要对自己的行为负责，要完全承担由自己的行为所造成的一切后果。

    To take responsibility will propel you forward and onward to your greater good.I know of a woman named Mary whose story of personal responsibility has always inspired me.Mary was born in Cuba and moved to Miami with her family when she was two years old.They lived in terrible poverty in a dangerous part of the city，where crime and drugs were part of everyday life.Mary was determined，however，even at the young age of eight，to make something of her life other than follow the expected route of becoming a maid，or a cashier at the local supermarket.So she got herself to school each and every day，sometimes having to step over drunks passed out in the doorway，just so she could get education and give herself a better life.

    Mary eventually left Miami，obtained a good education，and fostered her natural music ability.Mary could have given in to the life she was born into，or remained mired in blaming her parents and culture for her circumstances.She could have refused to take responsibility for the situation.Instead，however，Mary took responsibility for herself and created a life of which she can be proud.
