A group of researchers in America

　　have done a survey.

　　They asked a lot of people

　　what their greatest regret is.

　　美国的一群研究人员做了一项调查

　　when they were young

　　and as a result they had achieved nothing.

　　Nowadays it seems popular for young people

　　to deliberately[dɪˈlɪbərətli] stay confused

　　and do nothing seriously.

　　Of course, trying does not only

　　belong to the young or children.

　　And it has nothing to do with time.

　　当然，努力不是专属于年轻人

　　和孩子的东西

　　它与时间无关

　　It's not an obligation

　　put on your shoulder by others.

　　It is the desire for a better self

　　that takes root deeply in your heart.

　　It is a positive life-attitude.

　　它不是外界对你的逼迫

　　而是你自己内心对更进一步的渴望

　　是一种积极向上的生活态度

　　that can happen in your life

　　is not being unsuccessful

　　even though you tried,

　　but that you give up

　　and tell yourself

　　it is precious to be just ordinary.

　　That's really sad.

　　人生中最可怕的不是碌碌无为

　　Like what they say in Game of Thrones,

　　winter is coming.

　　Winter is coming for everyone, all the time.

　　This winter's name is Time.

　　就像他们在《权力的游戏》里面说的：

　　凛lǐn冬将至，凛冬正在向所有人袭来
