信心和良心 ***
權威不可以全信
所聽所言要分析
不應被權威懼嚇
不應該盲從服務
不應該同謀合汚
要有個人的原則
對自己要有信心
本著良心去辦事
Faith and conscience ***
Don’t trust anything to the letter from a reputed high authority. You should analyze carefully what you hear and what you see. Don’t be afraid of authoritative power. Don’t blindly follow instructions. Don’t get involved with higher authority in a way that leads you to participate in illegal acts. You must have your own principles, and have confidence in yourself. Whatever you do, you must do it with a good conscience.
改變命運 ***
無論環境幾惡劣
都不應沮喪失意
只要內心滿懷望
帶著積極的心態
告訴自己要勇敢
努力奮鬥向前行
不向命運去低頭
一定可改變命運
Change your destiny ***
No matter how bad life can be, don’t despair and lose your spirit. On the contrary, you must make sure that your heart is full of hope and you must be positive at all times. Tell yourself that you need to be brave and put in your best efforts to move forward. If you don’t bow to your fate, you will be able to control, and even change, your destiny.

小人之得志 ***
小人之所以得志
靠的是口舌甜滑
全沒有真槍實彈
這只不過是僥倖
還持驕貶低別人
這樣的言行舉止
是不得別人尊敬
最終會自食其果
Why people of bad character appear to be successful ***
You may wonder why a person of bad character can be successful. Such a person is very sweet and slimy in his/her use of words. In reality, he/she doesn’t mean what he/she says. It is all by luck that he/she can succeed. Not only that, he/she is arrogant and disparages others. Malicious words and deeds do not gain any respect at all. Ultimately such a person will pay for this bad behavior.
親力親為 ***
只會說而不實行
無人對你有信心
因你沒親身體驗
試問怎能有資格
可說自己是專業
一定要親身力行
時時要自我反省
才可成為好榜樣
DIY (Do it yourself) ***
If you only talk about it, but never do it yourself, eventually you will lose confidence in yourself. It is because you don’t have the practical experience, and how can you claim to be a professional? Only if you do it yourself, and engage in self-introspection, to look for improvement, can you claim to be a good example for others to follow.

Daily Advice December 7, 2012 人生的旅途 Life’s journey
十二月七日
December 7, 2012
人生的旅途 ***
人一生的旅途中
時時要注意安全
不可以盲衝直撞
有時也要停一停
看看週圍的環境
聽清楚附近聲音
看看有沒有危險
才可安全向前行
Life’s journey ***
In one's journey through life, one should always pay attention to safety and should not rush blindly to do things. Sometimes it is worth stopping for a while and take stock of the surrounding environment. Listen carefully to the sounds surrounding you, and try to feel whether there is any danger before moving ahead.
短暫無常 ***
人生是短暫無常
時光一去不復來
壽命長短難預料
瞬息間化為烏有
或許一切天安排
得到的定要珍惜
未得到不要苛求
一切要聽其自然
Transient impermanence ***
Life is a short impermanence. Once time is gone, it will never come back. No one knows how long one lives. In the twinkling of an eye, everything may disappear. Maybe everything is destined in life. If this is the case, value what you have, and don’t ask for the impossible. Let nature takes its course.

Daily Advice December 6, 2012 人要有理智 Saneness and confidence
十二月六日
December 6, 2012
人要有理智 ***
做人定要有理智
而且要充滿信心
不可有邪惡之念
必須心存慈悲心
有信心會有力量
只要是智信合一
內心一定會安祥
辦事一定會成功
Saneness and confidence ***
People must maintain their saneness and confidence. They should not have evil thoughts but possess compassion. With inner confidence, they will have hidden strength to move forward. As long as they use their knowledge properly, and have confidence in themselves, they will have serenity and should be successful in whatever they do.
說話要小心 ***
做人說話要小心
失言將難以挽救
要小心把話說好
最好要留些餘地
留下適當的空間
不應該把話說死
更不應搬弄是非
才不會造成傷害
Be careful ***
People have to be careful about what they say; otherwise once said, they will not be able to withdraw what has been said. The best speech is to say good things. It is even better if they give people room to manoeuvre. Don’t say anything that forces other people into a corner. Never create new rumors. Rumors may cause harm to the originator and other people.

Daily advice December 4, 2012 自力更生 Self-reliance
十二月四日
December 4, 2012
自力更生 ***
不要幻想多蘿蘿
過份幻想不實際
人要踏實求上進
計劃好明天生活
如果沒有好計劃
必受飢餓的折磨
只要是腳踏實地
定可以豐衣足食
Self-reliance ***
Do not try to have unrealistic dreams. Too much fantasy is not practical. People need to be practical and plan for their future. Without a good plan, they may have to suffer poverty. Only with practical experience, one can make a living to meet their daily needs of food and clothing.
人生的意義 ***
有人雖然活得長
但從沒有努力過
從來沒有過夢想
糊裡糊塗過日子
這樣渡日的生活
不見得是有意義
做人定要有活力
努力過才有意義
Life’s significance ***
Although some people live a long life, they have never tried hard to fulfill their dream or they may not even have had a dream. They let everyday pass by without doing anything meaningful. Without working hard to fulfill a dream in one’s life, one cannot claim that they have had a meaningful life.

Daily Advice December 3, 2012 適可而止 Do everything in moderation
十二月三日
December 3, 2012
適可而止 ***
有些人以苦為樂
有些人自得其樂
還有人樂不思蜀
有些人樂極生悲
快樂本是個喜事
可惜是樂極忘形
喜事可變為悲事
凡事要適可而止
Do everything in moderation ***
Some people can live happily through difficult times while others always look for happiness. Some people enjoy the present so much and forget where they came from, while others overly enjoy the present and end up changing a happy event into one that is sad. Happiness is, in fact, a joyful event. Unfortunately people can turn a happy event into an unfortunate event. Therefore remember always do everything in moderation.
物極必反 ***
常言道物極必反
一切要適可而止
一頓飯吃多不好
吃得太少也不好
最好是適可而止
做事也都是一樣
做過量未必是好
有可能會有危害
Extremes cause reverse effect ***
There is a common saying that if you go to the extremes; you may end up with the reverse effect. You should know when to stop. It is like eating a meal. You should not stuff yourself with too much food. Nor should you eat much less than what your body needs. You should only eat the right amount. Working habits are in the same category. Over-work may not necessarily be good. It may cause some hidden danger work-wise or health-wise.
