自知之明 *** 只要有自知之明 對於拍馬屁的人 最好是無動於衷 對於每句奉承話 雖然是風花雪月 不該被虛言蒙蔽 反而要自省吾身 繼續去加強長處	Self-awareness ***   As long as you are aware of your own ability, you can   ignore people’s flattery, and be indifferent to it.   Although these words may sound pleasant to your ears, don’t be misled by them.  By contrast, you should perform an introspective review on yourself and continue to further improve your strengths.
自我陶醉 *** 自我陶醉是危險 往往會忘記自己 忽略了自己弱點 超越了自己優點 忘掉了進修自我 表露了自己短處 給壞人有個機會 把你殺掉也不知	Narcissism ***    Narcissism is dangerous.  It tends to make you forget your real self.   You may ignore your weaknesses and over-react to your strengths.  You may also forget to continue improving yourself. You may reveal your weaknesses, giving bad people a chance to damage your reputation.  You may be beaten to death without knowing why.

永遠做不完 *** 工作永遠做不完 有時也要停一停 放鬆心情減壓力 一切要量力而為 無須要弄壞身體 錢永遠是賺不夠 而且只是身外物 何必要弄壞身體	Jobs can never be completely done *** Jobs can never be completely done.  Sometimes you may have to stop, relax and relieve your stress.  Don’t work beyond your limit; otherwise you may injure your health.  Money is not part of your body and no matter how much you earn, you will never find it enough.  Why overwork yourself and destroy your health?
補充精力 *** 過份勞碌不會好 對身體當然不好 對精神也是不好 最好的解決辦法 就是放自己大假 休息去補充精力 緊記著一句忠言 忙裡也須要偷閑	Additional energy *** An excessive workload is no good for you.  It can only cause harm to your body.  It may even affect your mental state.  The best way to handle such a situation is to take a vacation, relax and recharge your batteries.  Remember this piece of advice:  no matter how busy you are, you need to take a break.

好人唔難做 *** 做好人其實唔難 一切看你的存心 存心不良定是壞 做好事都是無用 但本著良心做人 對人對事有善心 一定會心安理得 可算得是個好人

It is easy to be a good person ***  It isn’t difficult to become a good person.  It all depends on your conscience.  If you don’t have a good conscience, even if you think you are doing a good deed, in reality it will not turn you into a good person.  If you do everything with a good conscience, you will automatically be kind and nice to people.   You will feel tranquility inside yourself and you are in fact a good person.

與人相處 *** 人與人日常相處 關鍵是講個誠信 相信人心是肉做 只要自己做好人 就算被人取便宜 自己做咗個傻瓜 只要是問心無愧 心安理得也就算

Get along with others  ***    The key to success in getting along well with people is to be honest with each other.  Believe in integrity.   As long as you are an honest person, even if you are being cheated, and people make a fool of you, it shouldn’t matter because of your clear conscience. You will feel open minded and peaceful at heart.

真理與邪惡 *** 真理力量是無限 邪惡力量是渺小 邪惡暫時佔上風 最終真理勝邪惡 凡做任何一件事 都一定堅持真理 如沒有堅持真理 成功會背道而馳	Good and evil *** The working principle of having right on your side has unlimited power, but the power derived from being evil is limited.  Being evil may enable people to temporarily gain some advantage in the very beginning, but in the end, they will lose. Whatever you do, you must maintain a set of principles that have integrity.  If you do not have such principles, you will not be successful.
沒有責任感 *** 沒有責任感的人 談到自己的工作 都會是漫不經心 認為工作是辛苦 而且是沒有前途 還時常心生抱怨 這樣的工作態度 怎可以前途無限	No sense of responsibility *** When you talk to a person with no sense of responsibility, he/she will show no interest in his/her job.   He/she believes that working requires a lot of labor and there is no future in his/her job.  No wonder he/she always complains.  With such attitude, definitely there is no future in career development.

Daily Advice January 15, 2013 與錢財無關 Being good or bad has nothing to do with wealth

一月十五日	January 15, 2013
與錢財無關 *** 好壞與錢財無關 做好人是很簡單 時常讓位給老人 見到別人跌倒時 樂意小心扶起人 不與人斤斤計較 願意去退讓一步 日行一善是好人	Being good or bad has nothing to do with wealth   ***       Being good or bad has nothing to do with wealth.   To be a good person is very simple.  Give seats to seniors.  When you see people fall, offer help to lift them up.   Don’t be calculating with people.  Be willing to step one step backwards and give in a little.   Perform a good deed daily.  If you can do this, you definitely are a good person.
與心情有關 *** 好人與心情有關 如果你心情愉快 時常樂於幫助人 你己經是個好人 但心情不好之時 那有熱心去助人 反而容易發脾氣 此時你是個壞人	Being a good person is related to your mood ***         Being a good person has something to do with your mood.   When you are in a good mood, you most likely are willing to help others.   If you do that, you are, in fact, a good person.   But when you are in a bad mood, most probably you are not in a mood to help others.  Also, you may get angry easily at small stuff.  Under such a condition, you are already a bad person.

喜怒哀樂 *** 喜怒哀樂人人有 修練到樂不可支 修練到怒不可遏 得意不忘乎所以 失意不勃然大怒 這種祟高的修養 是保持身體健康 最好的一種方法	Joy and sorrow  *** Everyone has days of joy and sorrow. People should control their emotions so as not to be overjoyed, and lose their senses during joyful days, and should not get angry or upset during days of sorrow.  This ability, to control emotions, is a good way to keep a healthy body.
焉知非福 *** 遇上了逆境之時 無須要垂頭喪氣 碰到了幸運之神 也無須趾高氣揚 正所謂塞翁失馬 可能是焉知非福 一切都隨遇而安 反而會活得輕鬆	No one knows the result *** Don’t despair when caught in a disaster.  Don’t be overjoyed when luck comes your way.  No one really knows what the ultimate result is going to be.  There is a Chinese saying that, when you lose a horse, you may not know whether it is a blessing or not.  It   is always better to go with the flow.  If you do that, you will feel relaxed.

忙忙碌碌 ***   忙忙碌碌一星期 難怪會腰酸背痛 週末是時候休息 做自己喜歡的事 最好做多少運動 可幫助身心放鬆 也可以補充體力 是減壓一種良藥	Busy at all times *** After being busy for a whole week, no wonder people have backache. Therefore, it is time to take advantage of the weekend to relax.  Do the things you always want to do.  Better still: exercise.  Exercising can replenish your energy.  It is a kind of medicine good for relaxation.
小心用錢 *** 莫以為搵錢容易 日捱夜捱點算易 用錢確係好容易 慳個金錢唔容易 既然得來非容易 小心用錢是明舉 千金散盡未必來 慳錢老來可防饑	Be careful how you spend your money *** Don’t think that it is easy to make money.  Money is earned through hard work.  To spend money is much easier than to earn money.  Since it isn’t easy to make money, be careful how you spend your money.   Always remember that once your money is gone, it may never come back.   Therefore, it is advisable to save money for your old age.
