办公室Office对话：新一年的目标

Jack: Congratulate me, Lucy！I've bought a house so I can marry my girlfriend this year.
Lucy，祝贺我吧！我买房子了，今年就能和我女朋友结婚啦！

Lucy: Cool！Congratulations！
啊，恭喜你！

Jack: Now I have to work harder and harder at my life goals.
为了我的“终生目标”，我要更加努力地工作了。

Lucy: Life goals？To give your girlfriend a happy life？Good man！
“终生目标”？让你女朋友过幸福生活吗？真是个好男人！

Jack: No, I don't care about her that much. I'm only thinking about paying back the house loan. What's your goal, Lucy？
不是，我还没想那么多。我只是想还清买房的贷款。Lucy，你的目标是什么？

Lucy: I have three goals this year. One is to be healthier and more beautiful.
今年我有3个目标，一个是更健康，更漂亮。

Do you have a life goal？What's your goal this year？If you do, then achieve it. Set high, yet achievable goals for yourself.

不想当将军的士兵不是好兵，不想升职的员工也不能成为精英。老板有诸多激励方式，吊着人的胃口。员工自己可得保持冷静头脑，不能为难自己，给自己定一个跳一跳就能够得着的目标即可，有成就感才有劲头继续往前奔啊。

NOTE:

pay back: 偿还。pay back the house loan，还房子的贷款；pay back还有还情意的意思，如“How can he pay people back for all their kindness？”（他又该如何报答大家对他的好意呢？）
