How to Prepare for the First Time at Anything
如何为你的第一次做准备
Prepare for the second time 为第二次做准备
Once you have gone through your "first time experience", you'll have broken the biggest barrier of all.
一旦你有了第一次的经历，那么你已经打破了最大的障碍。
The excitement and fear is most likely gone and thenext time won't be that scary anymore.
兴奋和害怕很可能已经消失了，下次不会那样害怕了。
To make the next time even a smoother experience, do these two things during your first time:Take notes. It never hurts to write things down as you go.
为了让下一次经历更加顺利，第一次做事的时候应该做这两件事情。一是做记录。当你在做事情的时候写下一些东西并不让你觉得疼痛。
These notes can help you to feel more confident and you can go them through when preparing for the second time.
这些记录能够让你变得更加自信，当你在准备第二次的时候，你可以完成它们。
Run through a checklist. Create a checklist, so that you can prepare even better for the next time.
二是查阅备忘录。做一个备忘录。做一个备忘录，为了下一次能够准备得更好。
For example, to prepare yourself to give a presentation, write down a checklist to go through before the actual event.
比如说，准备做一个报告，在真正作报告之前写好备忘录来通读。
This way you can make sure that all the necessary requirements are met before the presentation begins.
这样的话，可以确保在报告开始前做到了所有必要的要求。
