逆境中不屈服，顺境中不骄躁，常境中不懈怠。

Do not yield to adversity, do not be elated in prosperity, and do not slacken in ordinary times.

1. 人生就像一段起伏不定的旅程。

1. Life is like a journey with ups and downs.

2. 有高峰，有低谷，也有平坦无碍的道路。

2. There are peaks, valleys, and also smooth, unobstructed roads.

3. 高峰时，不要自以为是，得意忘形。低谷时，不要气馁沮丧，自怨自艾。平坦时，不要懒惰懈怠，不思进取。

3. Do not be self-righteous and overconfident during peak times. Do not be discouraged and despondent during troughs, and do not blame yourself excessively. Do not be lazy and complacent during flat periods, and do not stop striving for progress.

4. 白居易说：“行路难，不在山，不在水，只在人情反覆间。”不管人生处在什么样的境遇，摆正心态，正知正行，就能远灾离苦，笃定从容。

4. Bai Juyi said: "The difficulty of walking lies not in mountains or rivers, but in the fluctuations of human emotions." No matter what kind of circumstances life is in, by maintaining a positive mindset and acting correctly, one can avoid disasters and suffering, and live a firm and composed life.

5. 人一旦走上高点，就容易看不清自我。自以为高人一等，不可一世。最后在自我迷失中坠入深渊，万劫不复。

5. Once a person reaches a high point, they tend to lose sight of themselves. They may believe themselves to be superior and unstoppable. Ultimately, they may fall into a abyss of self-loss, from which there is no return.

6. 明朝初年，小吏出身的胡惟庸，一路青云直上，做到宰相。在百官的吹捧和簇拥中，胡惟庸越发飘飘然。他勾结勋贵，结党营私。僭越皇权，独断专行。甚至开始觊觎皇权，和朱元璋掰腕子。最后被朱元璋诛灭三族，牵连被杀者三万多人。

6. In the early years of the Ming Dynasty, Hu Weiyong, a low-ranking official by origin, rose rapidly through the ranks to become the Prime Minister. Amidst the flattery and adulation of the officials, Hu Weiyong became increasingly vain. He consorted with the noble elite, formed factions for personal gain. He dared to overstep the imperial power, acting arbitrarily and unilaterally. He even began to covet the imperial power, challenging Zhu Yuanzhang to a fistfight. In the end, Zhu Yuanzhang annihilated his three families, with over 30,000 people implicated and killed.

7. 《易经•乾卦•九五爻》说：“亢龙有悔。”身处高位的人，如果洋洋自得，狂妄自大，就会有悔恨，有祸患。

7. The text from the I Ching, Qian hexagram, line nine says: "There is regret for the soaring dragon." Those in high positions, if they are complacent and proud, will have regrets and face misfortunes.

8. 得意之时，懂得收敛自己的光芒，谦卑自持，低调谨慎，才不会登高跌重。

8. At times of pride, one should know how to contain one's brilliance, maintain humility, be modest and cautious, so as not to fall from a great height.

9. 唐朝时，娄师德被提拔为宰相，全家人倍感荣耀。

9. During the Tang Dynasty, Lou Shide was promoted to the position of Prime Minister, and his entire family felt a great sense of honor.

10. 娄师德担心家人仗势而骄，授人以柄，就找来管家的弟弟，问，如果有人把唾沫唾在你脸上，你会怎么办。弟弟说，我会用衣袖把唾沫擦干，不与他计较。

10. Lao Shide worried that his family members might become proud and take advantage of their status, thus giving others an opportunity to criticize them. So he called the butler's younger brother and asked, "What would you do if someone spat on your face?" The younger brother replied, "I would use my sleeve to wipe the saliva off and not argue with them."

11. 娄师德不满意，说，你当着那人的面擦干唾沫，说明你不服气，只会惹来更多的怨气。弟弟说，那怎么办。娄师德说，你应该对那人微笑，等着唾沫自己干掉。

11. Lao She De was dissatisfied and said, "You wiping your saliva in front of that person's face shows that you are不服 and it will only attract more resentment." The younger brother asked, "What should we do then?" Lao She De replied, "You should smile at that person and wait for the saliva to dry on its own."

12. 这就是历史上“唾面自干”的典故。

12. This is the historical allusion to "spit on oneself and dry it up."

13. 人在高点，看上去风光无限，实际是危险四伏。因为太突出，太抢眼，太容易被当做目标。只有不骄不狂，低调内敛，才能守住繁华，长久不衰。

13. When a person is at a high point, it may seem that they have boundless prospects, but in reality, they are surrounded by danger. Because they stand out too much, they are too eye-catching, and too easily made a target. Only by being modest and unassuming, and keeping a low profile, can one maintain prosperity and remain enduring.

14. 海明威说：“生活总是让我们遍体鳞伤，但到后来，那些受伤的地方，一定会变成我们最强壮的地方。”

14. Hemingway once said, "Life always leaves us bruised and battered, but in the end, those wounded places will surely become the strongest parts of us."

15. 生活多磨难，世事多艰辛。没有哪条航船永远一帆风顺，没有哪种人生没有坎坷荆棘。逆境在所难免，关键是不在痛苦中沉沦，化苦难为力量，化腐朽为神奇。

15. Life is full of hardships and the world is filled with difficulties. No ship sails forever without obstacles, and no life is without its trials and thorns. Adversity is inevitable, but the key is not to sink into the pain, but to transform suffering into strength, and decay into the marvelous.

16. Professor Hua Luogeng of Tsinghua University, in the prime of his 19 years, became lame in his legs and feet, turning his life into a dark phase.

17. 但他是一个骨子里要强的人，最终另寻方向，努力学习自己热爱的数学，立志获得一番成就，突破命运的茧房。在身体上失去了，要在学术上补回来，他如愿以偿地成为蜚声国际的数学家。

17. But he was a person who was fundamentally strong-willed, and eventually sought a different direction, diligently studying the mathematics he loved, determined to achieve great things, and break out of the cocoon of fate. Having lost in the physical realm, he sought to compensate in the academic world, and as he wished, he became an internationally renowned mathematician.

18. 时间能渡的都是愿意自渡的人。低谷时的苦难，就是为了积蓄力量。哪怕是裂缝里漏出来的光，也要牢牢抓住，然后生出向阳而生的勇气。

18. Time can only cross those who are willing to cross themselves. The sufferings in the low valley are to accumulate strength. Even if it's just the light leaking out of a crack, one must hold onto it firmly and then cultivate the courage to face the sun.

19. 逆境时，擦干眼泪，咬牙坚持，趟过荆棘丛生，踏过风雪凄迷，走过山重水复，一定会找到自己的星辰大海，皓月苍穹。

19. In times of adversity, wipe away your tears, grit your teeth and persevere, wade through thickets, trample through blizzards and mist, and walk through mountains and rivers. You will surely find your own stars and oceans, bright moon and vast sky.

20. 请你务必，一而再，再而三，三而不竭，毫不犹豫地救自己于这世间水火。

20. Please be resolute, repeat again and again, without end, and without hesitation, to save yourself from the fiery trials of this world.

22. After Zeng Guofan passed the imperial examination and became a jinshi, he was appointed to the Hanlin Academy and served as a civil official in the capital for ten years. In the bustling and comfortable capital, many officials were immersed in the enjoyment of reciting poetry and songs, celebrating peace and prosperity. However, Zeng Guofan was not content with such a passive and wasted life. He persisted in reading, thinking, engaging in scholarly pursuits, keeping a diary, cultivating his virtues, and striving for self-improvement.

23. 凭着高度的自律，曾国藩成为立德，立功，立言三不朽的杰出人物。

23. Relying on his high level of self-discipline, Zeng Guofan became an outstanding figure who achieved the three great things of establishing virtue, accomplishing achievements, and leaving words for immortality.

24. To remain true to one's initial aspirations in ordinary circumstances, not to abandon one's ambitions, to cultivate and strengthen oneself through perseverance, and to practice self-discipline and self-improvement, is a challenge to human nature, and it is also a magnificent force that bursts forth from life.

25. 生活中，很多人管控不住自己。每天在刷视频，打游戏，聚会吃饭，娱乐消遣中，荒废时间，苟且度日。即便想奋起一搏，也是三天打鱼，两天晒网，半途而废。

25. In life, many people struggle to control themselves. They waste time every day on watching videos, playing games, attending parties and dinners, and indulging in entertainment, barely getting by. Even when they want to make a stand, they often fish for three days and dry their nets for two, giving up halfway.

26. 如果管不住自己，一切梦想，都是空谈。一切美好，都是泡影。

26. If one cannot control oneself, all dreams are mere talk. All beauty is but a mirage.

27. When Mao Zedong was young, he wrote a couplet to encourage himself: "If there is constancy, why should one have to rise at the third watch and sleep at the fifth? The most fruitless thing is to expose oneself to the sun for ten days and to the cold for ten days."
