It does everything in its power to perpetuate itself.
它们会尽一切所能地保证自己能够长久存在
So the negative beliefs will use fear to perpetuate themselves
所以，负面信念会通过对你使用“恐惧”，以延续自己的地位
And the barometer is actually paradoxical
而显示恐惧的“晴雨表”，也是相当的“自相矛盾”
The greater the fear.
（因为）你的恐惧越大
The closer you are to freedom
你距离自由越近
Because that means
因为这意味着
the negative belief is using every trick in the book to get you to be afraid to change.
负面信念为了让你对“改变”感到恐惧，已经“无所不用其极”
And so the greater the fear means it's having to work much harder
所以，你的恐惧越大，说明它干得越卖力
Because you are that much closer to letting that negative belief go
因为你距离“释放掉这个负面信念”也越来越近
So don't be duped by the fact that the fear escalates.
所以，不要被“恐惧升级”这个表象所蒙蔽
It's just the negative belief using every single trick in its book
这只不过是负面信念在竭尽所能地使用各种“诡计”
Every single smoke and mirror
使用各种“镜花水月”
Every single lie that it can
使用各种用得上的“谎言”

To convince you of the reality of the negative belief.
使你相信“负面信念所相信的，才是现实，才是事实真相”
So you won't let it go
这样，你就不会“放手，让它走”
Because that's what it's designed to do
因为它设计出来，就是要这么做的
But if you know that
但如果你知道这是它的本职工作
And you know it's just smoke and mirrors.
你知道这些都是“镜花水月”
You know it's just the trick
你知道这些都是它使用的“诡计”
Then you can see behind the curtain
那你就可以看到“帷幕”背后的真相
And say
你就会说：
Oh, good one
“噢！做得好！”
Thank you.
“谢谢！”
You almost had me there.
“你差点骗到我了”
But I know it's just a belief
“但我知道这只是个信念”
And what I really know any belief can be changed
“并且，我也清楚地知道，任何信念都可以被改变”
So your tricks can't work on me.
“所以，你的诡计对我没用”
You see
你们要知道
This quality, this trait of negative beliefs
负面信念的这种特征，这种属性
Is actually the origin of the ancient biblical phrase The Father Of Lies
正是《圣经》中的“谎言之父”这句话的起源
Negative beliefs have to lie to you to convince you that they're real
负面信念必须欺骗你，才能使你相信它们是真实的

Whereas positive ones don't
然而，正面信念，则不需要这么做
Because they are the truth,
因为它们本身就是真实的，就是真理
But the negative ones know they're not.
但负面信念知道它们不是真实的
So they have to give you falsehoods about yourself.
所以，它们要对你说谎，让你相信虚假的信息
You are not worthy
“你一无是处”
You're not deserving
“你不配”
Don't try
“不用试了”
You will fail
“你肯定失败”
And won't that feel terrible?
“失败的感觉，可是很糟糕的”
Stay here in this safe little dark corner
“待在这个黑暗小角落吧”
Where you never have to worry that you will fail
“这里很安全，你根本就不需要担心失败”
It has to give you all of these falsehoods to convince you to stay there
它要不断地跟你说这些谎言，从而说服你，让你待在这里
because it's not the truth
因为它不是真相
So it has to work that much harder
所以，它必须拼老命地卖力地工作
And the way it works harder is by amping up the fear
而它“卖力工作”的方式，就是不断增加你的恐惧
But that's how you know you're really close to freedom
但你可以通过不断增加的恐惧，从而知道你距离自由越来越近

As you say on your planet
正如你们星球上所说的
Darkest before the dawn
“黎明前，最黑暗”
Most fearful before the break through
在突破之前，也是最为恐惧的
So laugh at the fear
所以，面对恐惧时，笑一笑，说：
Haha
“哈哈！”
Good one
“干得漂亮！”
Nice try
“真有你的！”
You're doing your job
“你做得很卖力哦！”
Well done
“真棒！”
But I'm not buying it anymore.
“但我不再买你的账”
带着恐惧，步步向前
By talking about the idea that a mistake is not really a mistake, if you don't use it as a negative thing.
只要你不把错误当错误，错误就不是错误
You can't really make a wrong choice if you choose to learn something from the choice that you don't prefer.
如果你能从自己不喜欢的选择中，学到什么，那你就没犯错
Because many times it's easier for people on your planet,
由于成长环境的影响
Because of the way they have been brought up, to see the light by first experiencing more darkness
地球人，通常更容易通过先体验更多的黑暗，然后看见光
Because it helps them recognize the difference.
因为这样，可以帮助他们看出二者的不同
And therefor you using the darkness in a positive way
于是你们利用黑暗的积极一面
To help you see the light more easily.
来帮助你们看见光
So the more you experience the fear,
所以，你越是体验到恐惧
All that tells you is,
越是让你明白
Your holding on the belief systems that are out of alignment with your true self
你紧抓不放的，是与你的真我不协调的信念系统

You're holding on the belief systems that don't work for you.
正是这些信念系统，让你人生一团糟
It's like saying I'm going to drive a car,
举个例子，比如开车
And I'm going to have my foot on the gas and on the brakes simultaneously,
你一脚踩油门，一脚踩刹车
Just for good measure, I’m gonna also put the parking brake on.
为了安全起见，手刹也拉起来
That's not how you drive a car, is it?
车不是这么开的，是吧？
So your engines going to squeal and screech, and start to smoke
于是引擎尖叫不停，整个车子白烟滚滚
And you're gonna wonder why am not getting anywhere?
而你还在奇怪，车子怎么不动了？
It's making all this racket and hoohoo
车子又吵又闹又怪
Isn't that scary?
还让人怕怕的，是吧？
When all you have to do is release the parking brake, and take your foot off the brake,
而你只需松开手刹与脚刹
And you move.
你就开动了
That’s all!
仅此而已
So all of that storm and lightning and thunder and fear
所有的暴风、闪电、雷鸣与恐惧
Is just you with your foot on the brake.
都是因为你死死地刹车
Take your foot off the brake,
把你的脚从脚刹移开
And you will zip forward,
车子就往前开动了
And you'll see that there was no reason to be afraid.
同时你也会发现，真没什么好怕的
并且，你需要做的，就是
Take the small steps you know you can take, by acting it every moment,
每一刻，在你可做的事情中
On the thing that contains a little bit more excitement than the next thing.
选出一个更兴奋一点的事，一小步一小步地前行

And just keep acting on it, to the best of your ability,
尽你最大可能力，持续不断地做
With no insistence on where that should lead,
不执着于事情该朝哪个方向发展
Or how it should look,
或该怎么怎么发展
Or what the outcome is about.
以及结果如何
And the more you do that,
你越是这么做
The more practice you will have with knowing
越是训练自己，让自己明白：
It's okay to start acting on more excitement and bigger things that excite you,
你可以开始做更兴奋的、更大的事情
And you will train yourself to understand that that's what you actually prefer,
也训练你明白：这样的生活方式，才是你所喜好的！
And your fear will subside
于是你的恐惧，也渐渐消融
Because you'll be having so much fun,
因为你是如此的喜悦
You will no longer want to pay attention to the negative belief that shouting at you to stop.
根本不想再关注负面信念系统朝你大喊大叫，要你停下了的声音
You will then know when you to slow down when the speed up in a more natural way
你也会知道，如何顺畅地开车
According to what you prefer,
何时减速，何时加速，都取决于你的喜好
Not what the negative belief tries to convince you is true about you.
而不是听信负面信念系统在你耳边唧唧歪歪，胡说八道的话语
You will know what is true about you,
你会知道，你自己的真相
And you won't have to pay attention to it anymore in the same way.
知道自己不需要像过去一样，听信负面信念的“骗人的童话”
At the end of this conversation
这次对话结束后
You have a number of options available to you at the end of this interaction.
你有些可以做的事情，对吧？
