So how do you do it?
那么你该怎么做呢？
This four-step model will help you to make your dreams come true.
这个四步模型将帮助你让你的梦想成真。
Step 1
Step 1: Think about your ambitions
步骤 1：思考你的抱负
What would you like to do?
你想做什么？
Write down all your ambitions.
写下你所有的抱负。
They may be very general, such as I would like to be fitter., I want to be famous. or It would be nice to have more friends.
它们可能是非常笼统的，比如“我想更健康。”、“我想出名。”或者“能有更多朋友就太好了。”
Or they may be more specific, like I've always wanted to play a musical instrument.
或者它们可能是更具体的，比如“我一直想演奏一种乐器。”
Step 2
Step 2: Change I would like to... to I will...
步骤 2：将“我想……”改为“我将……”
Now you need to do two things:
现在你需要做两件事：
-
Choose one or two ambitions.
-
选择一到两个抱负。
If you try to do everything, you won't do anything.
如果你试图做所有事情，你将什么都做不成。
-
Set a time limit.
-
设置一个时间限制。
This is very important, because you will have a goal and you will also know when you have reached it.
这非常重要，因为你将有了一个目标，并且你也会知道你何时达到了它。
So, for example, I would like to be fitter. in Step 1 now becomes I will be fit enough to join a half-marathon race by the end of August.
所以，例如，第一步中的“我想更健康。”现在变成了“到八月底我将有足够的体能去参加半程马拉松比赛。”
Step 3
Step 3: Change I will... to I'm going to...
步骤 3：将“我将……”改为“我打算……”
Now that you've made your choice, what are you actually going to do to achieve your goal?
既然你已经做出了选择，你实际上打算做什么来达到你的目标？
So, in our example, I will be fit enough to join a half-marathon race by the end of August. becomes I'm going to join a running club. or I'm going to go jogging three times a week.
所以，在我们的例子中，“到八月底我将有足够的体能去参加半程马拉松比赛。”变成了“我打算加入一个跑步俱乐部。”或者“我打算每周去慢跑三次。”
Step 4
Step 4: Change I'm going to... to I'm doing... on... at...
步骤 4：将“我打算……”改为“我将在某日某时做某事……”
This is when you change your intentions into specific actions.
这就是你将你的意图转化为具体行动的时候。
Prepare to do something at a specific time.
准备在特定的时间做某事。
If you don't do this, your dreams and plans will just stay as dreams and plans.
如果你不这样做，你的梦想和计划就只会停留在梦想和计划阶段。
So now I'm going to join a running club. becomes I'm meeting the president of the Cheetahs Running Club on Monday evening at 5:30.
所以现在“我打算加入一个跑步俱乐部。”变成了“我将在周一晚上5:30与猎豹跑步俱乐部的会长见面。”
Conclusion
Don't let your ambitions die.
不要让你的抱负消亡。
Follow this four-step plan and make your dream come true.
遵循这个四步计划，让你的梦想成真。
