Today I begin a new life.
 
And I make a solemn oath to myself that nothing will retard 1 my new life's growth. I will lose not a day from these readings for that day cannot be retrieved 2 nor can I substitute another for it. I must not , I will not, break this habit of daily reading from these scrolls 4 and, in truth, the few moments spent each day on this new habit are but a small price to pay for the happiness and success that will be mine.
 
As I read and re-read the words in the scrolls to follow, never will I allow the brevity of each scroll 3 nor the simplicity 5 of its words to cause me to treat the scroll's message lightly. Thousands of grapes are pressed to fill one jar with wine, and the grapeskin and pulp 6 are tossed to the birds. So it is with these grapes of wisdom from the ages. Much has been filtered and tossed to the wind.Only the pure truth lies distilled 7 in the words to come. I will drink as instructed and spill not a drop. And the seed of success I will swallow.
 
Today my old skin has become as dust. I will walk tall among men and they will know me not , for today I am a new man, with a new life.
 

今天,我天始新的生活.
 
我郑重地发誓,绝不让任何事情妨碍我新生命的成长。在阅读这些读物的时候,我绝不浪费一天的时间,因为时光一去不返,失去的日子是无法弥补的。我也绝不打破每天阅读的习惯。事实上,每天在这些新习惯上花费少许时间,相对于可能获得的愉乐与成功而言,只是微不足道的代价。
 
当我阅读书卷中的字句时,绝不能因为文字的精炼而忽视内容的深沉。一瓶葡萄美酒需要千百颗果子酿制而成,果皮和渣子抛给小鸟。葡萄的智慧代代相传,有些被过滤,有些被淘汰,随风飘逝。只有纯正的真理才是永恒的。它们就精炼在我要阅读的文字中。我要依照指示,绝不浪费,饮下成功的种子。
 
今天,我的老茧化为尘埃。我在人群中昂首阔步,不会有人认出我来,因为我不再是过去的自己、我已拥有新的生命。
