詹姆斯·艾伦:思考的人·摘录 8

詹姆斯·艾伦《思考的人》· As a Man Thinketh · 健康

Thought and character are one, and as character can only manifest and discover itself through environment and circumstance, the outer conditions of a person's life will always be found to be harmoniously related to his inner state. This does not mean that a man's circumstances at any given time are an indication of his _entire_ character, but that those circumstances are so intimately connected with some vital thought-element within himself that, for the time being, they are indispensable to his development.

白话

思想和性格是一回事。性格只能通过环境和遭遇显现出来,所以一个人外在的生活条件,总会和他内在的状态相呼应。但要注意:某个时刻的处境并不代表他整个人的全部性格,只是说这些处境和他内心某个关键的念头元素紧密相连,在当下对他的成长不可缺少。换句话说,外在是内在的镜子,但照出的是此刻的焦点,不是全部底片。看处境时别急着下全盘结论,而要问它正映出我内心哪一部分。

上下文

《思考的人》讨论“境遇是思想的产物”这一核心主张,此处做了重要限定,避免宿命论误读。
