matt cutts: try something new for 30 days 小计划帮你实现大目标 a few years ago, i felt like i was stuck in a rut, so i decided to follow in the footsteps of the great american philosopher, morgan spurlock, and try something new for 30 days.the idea is actually pretty simple.think about something you’ve always wanted to add to your life and try it for the next 30 days. 几年前， 我感觉对老一套感到枯燥乏味， 所以我决定追随伟大的美国哲学家摩根·斯普尔洛克的脚步，尝试做新事情30天。这个想法的确是非常简单。考虑下，你常想在你生命中做的一些事情 接下来30天尝试做这些。 it turns out, 30 days is just about the right amount of time to add a new habit or subtract a habit — like watching the news — from your life. 这就是，30天刚好是这么一段合适的时间 去养成一个新的习惯或者改掉一个习惯——例如看新闻——在你生活中。 there’s a few things i learned while doing these 30-day challenges. 当我在30天做这些挑战性事情时，我学到以下一些事。 the first was, instead of the months flying by, forgotten, the time was much more memorable. 第一件事是，取代了飞逝而过易被遗忘的岁月的是 这段时间非常的更加令人难忘。 this was part of a challenge i did to take a picture everyday for a month.and i remember exactly where i was and what i was doing that day. 挑战的一部分是要一个月内每天我要去拍摄一张照片。我清楚地记得那一天我所处的位置我都在干什么。我也注意到随着我开始做更多的，更难的30天里具有挑战性的事时，我自信心也增强了。
我从一个台式计算机宅男极客变成了一个爱骑自行车去工作的人——为了玩乐。甚至去年，我完成了在非洲最高山峰乞力马扎罗山的远足。在我开始这30天做挑战性的事之前我从来没有这样热爱冒险过。 i also figured out that if you really want something badly enough, you can do anything for 30 days. 我也认识到如果你真想一些槽糕透顶的事，你可以在30天里做这些事。 have you ever wanted to write a novel? every november, tens of thousands of people try to write their own 50,000 word novel from scratch in 30 days.it turns out, all you have to do is write 1,667 words a day for a month.so i did. 你曾想写小说吗？每年11月，数以万计的人们在30天里，从零起点尝试写他们自己的5万字小说。这结果就是，你所要去做的事就是每天写1667个字要写一个月。所以我做到了。 by the way, the secret is not to go to sleep until you’ve written your words for the day.you might be sleep-deprived, but you’ll finish your novel.now is my book the next great american novel? no.i wrote it in a month. 顺便说一下，秘密在于除非在一天里你已经写完了1667个字，要不你就甭想睡觉。你可能被剥夺睡眠，但你将会完成你的小说。那么我写的书会是下一部伟大的美国小说吗？不是的。我在一个月内写完它。
它看上去太可怕了。但在我的余生，如果我在一个ted聚会上遇见约翰·霍奇曼，我不必开口说，“我是一个电脑科学家。”不，不会的，如果我愿意我可以说，“我是一个小说家。” (laughter) （笑声） so here’s one last thing i’d like to mention.i learned that when i made small, sustainable changes, things i could keep doing, they were more likely to stick.there’s nothing wrong with big, crazy challenges.in fact, they’re a ton of fun.but they’re le likely to stick.when i gave up sugar for 30 days, day 31 looked like this. 我这儿想提的最后一件事。当我做些小的、持续性的变化，我可以不断尝试做的事时，我学到我可以把它们更容易地坚持做下来。这和又大又疯狂的具有挑战性的事情无关。事实上，它们的乐趣无穷。但是，它们就不太可能坚持做下来。当我在30天里拒绝吃糖果，31天后看上去就像这样。 (laughter) （笑声） so here’s my question to you: what are you waiting for? i guarantee you the next 30 days are going to pa whether you like it or not, so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot for the next 30 days. 所以我给大家提的问题是：大家还在等什么呀？我保准大家在未来的30天定会经历你喜欢或者不喜欢的事，那么为什么不考虑一些你常想做的尝试并在未来30天里试试给自己一个机会。 thanks. 谢谢。 (applause) （掌声）

自信就是力量——吸引人、说服人、影响人并取得成功的力量。设想一下，如果你充满自信，你的生活会是怎样一番景象! 自信并非来自遗传，是需要后天学习的。这就意味着，你也可以充满自信。从现在、从这里开始。
自信必须首先从想法开始。你怎么样看待自己，很大程度就影响了你觉得自己怎样。转而也影响了你说话、做事的方式。
没有你的默认，谁也无法将你看低一等。
充满自信的第一步是要开始自信地看待自己。注意自己的内心对话，注意你什么时候让消极和怀疑控制了自己的思想。
你周围的环境对你有着莫大的影响。你读的书，和你呆在一起的人，你听的音乐都对你的思维方式、对自己的感觉以及对世界的看法产生影响。 一言蔽之，你的周遭环境不是增加你的自信就是打击你的自信。
如果你现在所处的环境让你备受打击，比如说有一段不健康的关系或者一份痛苦的工作，如果你想提高自信的话，你就要改变你现在的处境。
如果你渴望充满自信，就创造一个支持你的环境，与自信的人多待在一起。 记住这些，自信就属于你。抓住它! self-confidence there are many factors that can contribute to a person’s succe in life.whether he is at school or at work, a person is more likely to succeed if he is hard-working, honest, intelligent, responsible, and so on.but of all the poible characteristics that can affect one’s succe, i believe self-confidence to be the most important for the following reasons. 自信
促成一个人成功的因素有很多。不论是念书或工作，如果可以努力、诚实、聪明、负责任等，就比较有可能成功。但在所有可能影响成功与否的特点中，基于下列理由，我认为自信最重要。
第一个理由就是，当一个人有自信的时候，就会相信自己的能力。他会相信自己可以而且一定会成功，这一点让他有勇气尝试新事物。想要成功，我们必须愿意冒险，所以有自信是很重要的。另一个理由是，有信心的人很少放弃，即使失败了，还是会不断尝试，直到成功。最后一个理由是，有信心的人不怕炫耀自己的成就，这并不表示他们应该自夸，而是应该优雅、有信心地接受别人的赞美。当他们在学业或工作上的成就更受人注目时，成功的可能性就更高了。
简言之，我认为自信是成功最重要的因素。自信使人勇于冒险，失败了会再接再厉，成功时能享受自己的成就。有了这些能力，有信心的人就能够轻易地在学业或工作上获得成功。篇3：30天尝试新事物 matt cutts : try something new for 30 days 【小计划帮你实现大目标】是否有些事情，你一直想去做，但就是没有实现？马特?卡茨建议：尝试30天。这个简短而轻松愉快的演讲提出了一个简洁方法，用来考虑制定和实现目标。马特是google所有工程师中最广为人知的一个，他提出在行动前我们不妨先来考虑制定一个短期计划来实现目标。 is there something youve always meant to do, wanted to do, but just ...havent? matt cutts suggests: try it for 30 days.this short, light-hearted talk offers an easy way to think about setting and achieving goals. matt cutts is an engineer at google, where he fights link spam and helps web masters understand how search works. why you should listen to him： matt cutts works on search at google, specializing in search optimization.hes a friendly and public face for helping webmasters understand how googles search actually works, making hundreds of videos that answer questions about seo.(search engine land made this handy chart of all of them.) hes an advocate for cutting down on poor practice such as link spam.he also wrote the first version of safe search, google’s family filter. quotes by matt cutts：
