你其实没那么聪明
You’re always so busy

Your work life consists of you running around like a headless chicken. There always seems to be a problem that takes up most of your work day. You also find yourself doing all the work, all the time.
你工作起来总像只没头苍蝇似的到处瞎忙。好像每天都有费神耗时的烂摊子要收拾，你无时无刻不在应付杂七杂八的任务。
Learn how to delegate and ask for help. It’s a little arrogant of you to think that you can do everything for everyone. Make it a point to rest and spend time on things that matter in life, not just work.
学着分配任务、寻求帮助吧。觉得自己能单枪匹马包揽所有活计？太高估自己了！别只忙于工作，也要会休息，花时间做点真正有意义的事情。
You may have been praised a lot when you were a child, a teen, or a college student because of your high grades and other academic achievements. That’s great. Ego boosts now and then are healthy and needed. But strive for more than just accolades.
当你还是个孩子或学生时，因为考了高分或学业喜人，常常受人称赞，确实很不错。现在自我膨胀了，渴望更大了，但决不能仅仅流连于夸赞之辞啊。
If you truly want to be smart but find yourself guilty of the signs above, now’s the chance to make a change. Be a smarter, better version of you.
如果你愧然发现自己也有以上表现，但你又真心希望变得聪明，那么，现在就抓住机会去改变吧。做更聪明、更美好的自己！
