Make Intelligent Choices Every Day.
Life's full of not-so-comfy spots. Whether you're stuck doing something or pushing yourself to grow, you're going to feel a bit uncomfortable either way. Now, here's the amazing thing. Not all discomfort is equal. Take discipline, for example. It's like a little nudge every day, a tiny bit of unease that helps you get closer to your dreams. It's like having a small stone in your shoe on a long, rewarding hike. On the other hand, there's failure. It's like falling flat on your face in front of a crowd—ouch, some serious unease that can really hurt. So, it's kinda like choosing between a small, daily stone or a big, painful fall. Discipline is your daily little stone, while failure is that big nasty fall waiting to happen if you're not careful. So, when it comes to feeling uneasy, pick the small nudge of discipline over the big pain of failure. It's your choice every day. Choose smart!
Translation
每天都做聪明的选择
人生充满了不怎么舒服的部分。无论你是陷入困境，还是鞭策自己成长，都会觉得不太舒服。现在跟你说件惊奇的事：不是所有的不舒服都是一样的。以“自律”来说，它就像每天轻轻地推你一把，这一点点的不适让你离梦想更近。也像是在长途、有意义的健行里，你的鞋进了一颗小石头。另一方面，以“失败”来说，它就像你在众人面前摔得一败涂地──唉哟，真的很不舒服，甚至会让你非常痛。所以，人生有点像在选择，你要每天的小石头，还是一次很痛的大跌倒。自律是你每天的小石头，而失败就是那个在等著你不小心时，就来了个糟糕的大摔倒。所以，既然都会觉得不舒服，就要选择自律的小推动，而不是失败的大痛苦。这是你每天的选择，所以聪明地选吧！
