Live and work, but do not forget to play to have fun in life and enjoy it. You need balance in everything. Too much work and no play makes life lopsided, and makes you dull and uninteresting. Seek perfect balance in everything you do, and you will find life is a real joy. You need variety in life, so why not breakout and attempt something quite new and different, not because you are bored with what you are doing or because you want to run away from it, but because you realise you need a change? When you can do it without any sense of guilt, you will find you will be able to do all you have 1to do with a new outlook; and, what is more, you will be able to do it with real enjoyment. What is the use of life unless you can enjoy it and have a good time in everything you undertake, whether you call it work or play?
生活和工作，但不要忘記了玩樂，忘記了在生活中享樂和享受生活。我在每一件事上都需要平衡。過多工作，毫無玩樂，會讓生活變得傾向一邊，並讓我變得沈悶無趣。在我所做的每一件事情上尋找完美的平衡，然後我會發現生活是一個真正的快樂。
我在生活中需要多樣性，所以為什麼不抽離出來，嘗試一樣全新、全然不同的事物呢，這不是因為我對我所做事情感到無聊，而是因為我意識到了我需要一點改變？
當我可以毫無內疚地這樣做時，我會發現我能夠帶著一個全新的眼界去做我需要完成的一切；並且，更多的是，我能夠帶著真正的享受去完成它。
生活又有什麼用處，除非我能夠享受它，並在我所承擔的每一件事上度過一段快樂的時光，無論我叫它工作還是玩樂？
