When life gets rough 生活艰难时

Don't compare yourself to other people

不要跟别人比


But if you do compare yourself, compare yourself with people who have it worse than you.

如果真的要去比,那就把自己和比你差的人拿来比较吧。

Unemployed? Be grateful that you live ina country that gives unemployment compensation, because most people in the world live on less that $750 ayear.

失业?感激你的国家还有失业保障制度吧,世界上大部分人年薪不到750美金。

So you don't look like Angelina Jolie? Well, I bet there are more people who don't than do. And you are probably way better looking than most people. Focus on that.

自己没有安吉丽娜朱莉那么漂亮?好吧,我觉得基本上大家都满足不了这点。而且你绝对比大部分人好看。多想想这些吧。

【知识点津】

compensation n.补偿,赔偿

例句:

If the government is proved negligent, compensation will be payable.

如果证明是政府的疏忽,就应支付赔偿。
