But fearing Sylla, he traveled into Greece, and gave it out that he did so for the benefit of his health. And indeed he was lean and meager, and had such a weakness in his stomach, that he could take nothing but a spare and thin diet, and that not till late in the evening. His voice was loud and good, but so harsh and unmanaged that in vehemence and heat of speaking he always raised it to so high a tone, that there seemed to be reason to fear about his health.

白话

西塞罗因为害怕苏拉的迫害,离开罗马去了希腊,对外说是为了养病。他确实瘦弱,胃肠不好,只能吃很少很清淡的东西,而且要等到傍晚才吃。他嗓音洪亮,但粗糙、缺乏训练,一激动就拔得很高,让人担心他的健康。这段记载说明,伟人也有身体上的短板,而他们往往靠后天训练和节制来弥补。对我们来说,了解自己的生理局限,用规律作息和刻意练习去管理它,比硬撑更明智。

上下文

普鲁塔克《西塞罗传》记述他青年时因苏拉独裁而避走希腊,并描述其体质。

今日一问

你有没有因为身体或性格的短板而回避挑战?可以怎样用训练和节制来弥补?
