多年之后我才明白这个道理。
It took me way too long to learn this.
我意识到自己被不怀好意的人包围
I realise I was just surrounded by toxic people,
当然他们的目标是困住我的手脚,让我飞不起来。
of course their objective was to cut me down.
嫉妒是一种毒药。
Jealousy is a poison.
直到最后,我从这些人的恶意中脱身
Only after I removed myself from all that
我的自信开始愈合
and started healing
慢慢的,开始得到实际的帮助
and slowly started getting actual support
这时我才开始了解到事实真相
did I start seeing that fact,
我听了太多旁人为了消磨我的斗志而说出的谎言
I was just fed so many lies by people to cut me down
他们就是希望我一事无成
so I wouldn't ever achieve anything.
我对自己的认知太过浅薄
I had such a low self concept
即浅薄又虚假
and yet it wasn't even real,
这样的自我认知是建立在他人的评判之上
it was just based on judgments made by others.
事实上
The thing is,
如果有人愿意花时间给你设置障碍
if someone took the time to try to cut you down,
就以为着,他们在你身上发现了很多潜质
that means they recognised a lot of potential in you,
你的潜质足以让他们感到威胁
enough to be deemed a threat.
你可以将计就计,既然你的敌人认为你的可怕的对手
Take it from your enemies that you are a formidable opponent
你就应该激励自己越发努力
and use that to propel you forward.
让自己置身于正能量的氛围之中
Surround yourself with good vibes
这会对你的自尊心产生神奇的助力
it will do wonders for your self esteem.
接受自己的过去,与自己的伤痛妥协
Come to terms with your past and grieve
坚持足够长的时间
for as long as necessary
这样你才能向前迈进
so that you can move forward.
你会获得自己做梦都不曾想到的成就
You can do stuff you'd never even dreamed of
并且在心灵深处,你知道你做得到。
and deep down, you know it.
