美国优秀少年的7个人生观
仔细想想,美国学校家长提倡的这7种习惯,就是美国孩子从小形成的人生观, 也是他们待人接物,行为处事的准则。理解这些观念,对高中大学申请文书撰写,以及如何与美国同学,同事相处都很有帮助。而且,尝试运用这些方法,也能让自己在美国的社会环境里更有效,更成功。
美国学校根据《The 7 Habits of Happy Kids》和《The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens》这两本书的内容,给学生们画了一个叫 7个习惯树/ The 7 Habits Tree -的海报,作为孩子们品格教育的参照纲领。从小养成这些好习惯的孩子,未来的路多数会走得比较顺畅和快乐。
这幅海报用一棵大树来比喻孩子一生中要培养的好习惯。从树根开始从下往上,这7个习惯像一棵树一样逐渐长成,分别是:
1. Be proactive
2. Begin with the end in mind
3. Put first things first
4. Think win-win
5. Seek first to understand,then to be understood
6. Synergize
7. Sharpen the saw
第1个习惯:Be proactive -you're in charge,
积极主动,我的人生我负责
I am a responsible person. I take initiative. I choose my actions, attitudes and moods. I do not blame others for my wrong actions. I do the right thing without being asked, even when no one is looking.
我对自己负责,做事积极主动。我管理自己的行为、态度和情绪。我做了错事不怪别人。不用别人说我也会去做正确的事情,哪怕没有人在看。
第2个习惯:Begin with the end in mind - Have a plan
有目标,有计划
I plan ahead and set goals. I do things that have meaning and make a difference. I am an important part of my classroom and contribute to my school's mission and vision. I look ways to be a good citizen.
做事前我会定计划和目标。我做有意义和带来积极影响的事。我是班级里的重要一员,为学校事务做贡献。我希望成为一个好公民。
第3个习惯:Put first things first - Work first, then play
做事分主次,先工作,后娱乐
I spend my time on things that are most important. This means I say no to things I know I should not do.I set priorities, make a schedule, and follow my plan. I am disciplined and organized.
我在重要的事情上花时间。不该做的事,我勇于说不。我制定优先级,做日程表,执行我的计划。我对自己有纪律,做事井井有条。
第4个习惯,Think win-win - Everyone can win
从共赢角度考虑问题,利己利人
I balance courage for getting what I want with consideration for what others want. I make deposits in others' Emotional Bank Accounts. When conflicts arise, I look for third alternatives.
我勇于争取自己想要的,但是我同时也会考虑别人的需求。我在别人的情感银行帐号里放下我的存款。有矛盾的时候,我寻求能平衡彼此需求的解决方案。
第5个习惯,Seek first to understand, then to be understood
先去理解别人,再求被人理解
I listen to other people's ideas and feelings. I try to see things from their viewpoints. I listen to others without interrupting. I am confident in voicing my ideas. I look people in the eyes when talking。
我仔细聆听别人的主意和情感。我努力从他人角度去理解问题。听别人说话的时候我不插嘴、不打扰。我很有信心说出我自己的主意。别人说话的时候,我直视他的眼睛。
第6个习惯,Synergize -Together is better
协同-合作会更好
I value other people's strengths and learn from them. I get along well with others, even people who are different than me. I work well in groups. I seek out other people's ideas to solve problems because I know that by teaming with others we can create better solutions than anyone of us can alone. I am humble.
我珍重别人的优点,向他们学习。我和大家很好相处,即使他们和我很不一样。我能有效地进行团队合作,因为我知道合作比单打独斗能带来更好的解决方案。我保持谦虚的精神。
第7个习惯,Sharpen the saw-Balance feels best
磨刀不误砍柴工,寻求健康和平衡
I take care of my body by eating right, exercising and getting sleep. I spend time with family and friends. I learn in lots of ways and lots of places, not just at school. I find meaningful ways to help others.
我充分照顾好自己,健康饮食,锻炼,保证足够睡眠。我跟家人朋友享受在一起的时光。我涉略广泛,旅行,不止限于学校的功课。我做有意义的事情帮助别人。
