Chances are you want to develop peak performance in each area of your life. Whether it’s relationally, career-wise, financially, mentally, or spiritually, you want to maximize your performance so that you will experience the joy and peace that you’re after. Such a desire is commendable and certainly possible when you understand how to achieve peak performance.
生命每个阶段的机遇就是让你提高你的表现。不管它是否有关联性、是否与事业有关、是否与金钱有关、是否与心理有关或者是与精神有关，都希望可以表现得最好，从而体会这种愉悦感，提高你自己。要是你知道如何能使自己表现的最好，这些想法都是很好的，也是可行的。
Here are 6 easy tips to have peak performance in every area of your life:
以下6步可以让你随时都有高表现：
Prepare for pressure.
做好承受压力的准备
When you prepare for the pressures of life, you tend to handle the stresses associated with what comes your way much better. Think of an athlete that is competing in the Olympics. He may feel the pressure to perform, but he doesn’t let it affect his performance because he is well-prepared for competition. In the same way you can prepare for the stresses of life by training your mind, body, and spirit consistently via personal and spiritual development and physical exercise. Make a decision and commit to it whether you feel like it or not.
当你做好了承受压力的准备之后，你就能更好的承受与你所走的那条人生路上所带来的压力。想想那些在奥运会上比赛的运动员。他们感受着表演的压力，但是他们并没有让那些压力影响到他们的表现，因为他们为比赛已经做好了充分的准备。同样的，为承受生活中所带来的压力，你也可以通过对身体、精神上的发展和身体锻炼进行长期的锻炼你的思维、你的身体。决定好，不管喜不喜欢都坚持。
Focus on the present.
关注当下
Yes, the future is important, but the present is more important. In order to be at your best, learn how to focus on your present circumstances. Dwelling on the past is not helpful, though it is always good to learn lessons from it. Dwelling on the future won’t truly serve you well either, especially if you are worrying about it. What about today? If you can focus on the present and do your best today in all areas of your life, you’re bound to perform at your peak.
是的，将来很重要，但是当下更重要。为了做到最好，学习怎样看待你目前的情况。虽然回首往事能让我们学到很多，但是纠结于过去却是于事无补的。一味的憧憬未来也不会对你有多少真正的好处，又尤其是未来让你担忧的时候。目前怎样呢？要是你看重目前的情况，把人生每个阶段的当下都做到了最好，你的表现注定是最好的。
Negate the negative.
拒绝消极
You’re bound to face negative thoughts and emotions, but you do not have to allow them to control you. Take some time to monitor your thought-life and see if you primarily think positive or negative thoughts. Then pay attention daily and when a negative thought arises, change it into a positive one. Retraining the brain to think positively instead of negatively is a worthy goal. Throughout life we tend to let those negative thoughts spin around in our minds more than we realize.
你肯定会有思想上比较消极的时候，也会有情绪不好的时候，但是你不能让这些不好的影响你、掌控你。花点时间来检测你自己的思想——看看你是积极的思想较多呢，还是消极的思想较多。然后每天都关注一下，哪些时候会出现消极情绪，把它们变成积极的思想。让我们的大脑变得积极主动而不是消极被动也是有价值的。在生活中我们纵容消极的思想萦绕于脑而不自知。
Envision the best.
展望最好的
Visualization is a powerful tool that will help you peak your performance in any area of your life. For example, if you want to be the best in your career, visualize yourself experiencing success often from promotions to favor to a jump in salary. As you envision yourself operating at your best, you gain momentum going forward and become more apt to take the actions necessary to manifest your best life.
展望是能帮你在生命中的每个时期做到最好表现的最有力的工具。比如，要是你想在工作中做到最好，经常想象你自己从升职到加薪的成功经历。当你想象自己做到最好的情景，会让你有极大地动力向前走，会让你变得容易做些有用的行动去展现出你最好的一面。
Stay out of your comfort zone.
走出安乐窝
Comfort zones keep you safe and tend to stunt your personal growth. It’s alright to be in your comfort zone at times, but be sure to step out once in a while. Even if you feel a bit anxious, allow courage to rise and propel you forward. Start something brand new that you’ve been putting off, finish what you’ve started, and commit to give your best in every area of your life.
安乐窝让你有安全感，也会让你个人的成长变得迟缓。有时待在安乐窝里还不错，但是偶尔也一定要走出来。即使你会觉得焦虑，让勇气带着你站起来，驱使你向前进。给那些被你拖延过的事情一个全新的开始，完成你已经开始做过的事，把你人生中的每个阶段都坚持做到最好。
Be action oriented.
做行动上的巨人
Plenty of people have goals in their mind or even written down, but they do not accomplish them because they do not take consistent action towards them. You must be action oriented in order to execute peak performance. Create an action plan for each goal that you desire and commit to taking those actions. Don’t let unfinished tasks wear you down, but close the loop on them. Get them done! You’ll soon find that when you follow through with these steps one by one, you make serious headway and before you know it, you’ve achieved your success.
很多人都在心里、纸上写下了目标，但是他们都没有实现他们的目标，因为他们都没有坚持努力的去实现自己的目标。为了做到最好，你必须注重行动。为你想要实现的每个目标制定出一个行动计划，并坚持去做。不要让没有完成的任务拖慢你的脚步，处理好这些死结。记下来！很快的你就会发现，一旦你一步一步的按着这些步骤做，在你发现你自己有进步之前你就已经进步了很多，你就已经取得了成功。
