I mean you know how it is: so often, we want to do something perfectly we can't start until it's the ____________________, until __________, but this can be ________and_________. So why not just ____________________，just do it, however, without __________ if it's good or bad? This will make it that much easier to start something and as you're doing it badly to __________, and when you look back, you'll __________, more often than not, that actually it's not that bad. A close friend of mine who has anxiety started using this __________, and this is what she said, "When I started using this __________, my life ________________. I found I could ____________________in much ____________________ than before. “Do it badly”gave me __________ to ____________________, to try something differently, and to ____________________ during the __________. It took the anxiety out of everything and __________ it with_________." So do it badly, and you can improve as you go along. I'd like to ask you to think about this: if you start using this motto today, how would your life change? The second coping strategy is to _______________________, and this is very ________________ if you use it. People with anxiety think a lot about what they're doing wrong, their____________ , and how bad they're feeling. Imagine if you had a friend who ______ ________ everything you're doing wrong, and everything that was wrong with your life. You would probably want to ____________ this person right away, wouldn't you?
I mean you know how it is: so often, we want to do something perfectly we can't start until it's the perfect time, until we've got all the skills, but this can be daunting and stressful.
我的意思是，你知道这是怎么回事：很多时候，我们想要完美地完成某件事，直到时机成熟，直到我们掌握了所有的技能，我们才能开始，但这可能会让人望而生畏、充满压力。
So why not just jump into it，just do it, however, without worrying if it's good or bad? This will make it that much easier to start something and as you're doing it badly to finish it, and when you look back, you'll realize, more often than not, that actually it's not that bad.
所以，不去担心好坏与否，而是直接投入其中，直接去做又何妨？ 这样会让你更容易开始一件事，尽管你不是那么好地完成了，当你回过头看，你会发现事实上通常来说事情并没有那么糟。
A close friend of mine who has anxiety started using this motto, and this is what she said, "When I started using this motto, my life transformed. I found I could complete tasks in much shorter time periods than before.
我的一个有焦虑症的亲密朋友开始使用这句格言，她说，“当我开始使用这句格言时，我的生活发生了变化。我发现我可以在比以前短得多的时间内完成任务。

“不用做好”给了我冒险的翅膀，让我尝试不同的东西，并在整个过程中获得更多的乐趣。它消除了一切的焦虑，取而代之的是兴奋。”
So do it badly, and you can improve as you go along. I'd like to ask you to think about this: if you start using this motto today, how would your life change?
所以，不去做好，你可以在前进的过程中不断进步。我想请你想想：如果你今天开始使用这句格言，你的生活会发生什么变化？
The second coping strategy is to forgive yourself, and this is very powerful if you use it.
第二种应对策略是原谅自己，这句话用起来是很有力量的。
People with anxiety think a lot about what they're doing wrong, their worries, and how bad they're feeling. Imagine if you had a friend who constantly pointed out everything you're doing wrong, and everything that was wrong with your life. You would probably want to get rid of this person right away, wouldn't you?
