[翻譯]如何控制你的大腦以達到最佳效能--(4)選擇的作用

When you work on a project for your organization, do you plan to complete fifty percent of it and hope the rest will come together on its own? Of course not, but it's likely that this is how you've been functioning if you only engage in physical preparation for your professional role. Overall, how you function is your choice: You can determine what thoughts you want to encourage to create beneficial emotions, which will then get you closer to peak performance. You can decide what words will generate behaviors and actions that align with goal attainment, and can tell your brain where to direct focus and energy in order to get the results you want. These strategies help the brain become your greatest tool, rather than biggest obstacle.

當你為你的組織開展一項計劃，你會僅規劃其中百分之五十並希望剩下的一半會自己完成？當然不會。但假如你僅為職業角色做好生理準備，那就會像上述所說的情況。整體而言，你如何工作、生活、思考是你自己的選擇，你可以決定以何種想法鼓動對你有益的情緒，使你更接近巔峰狀態。你也可以決定要用哪一種話語產生與目標相符的行為與動作，並告訴你的大腦直接在何處投入專注力與精力以心想事成。這些策略將會幫助你的大腦使其成為最好的工具，而非最龐大的障礙。
