"我们都有不可能达到的高标准"
— Steve Carell
Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, people set goals or expectations for themselves that are very hard, or even impossible, to achieve. Imagine a student who always wants to get perfect grades. No matter how well they do, if they miss even one question on a test, they feel like they have failed. This can be very stressful and make them unhappy, even though they are doing well overall. In the same way, someone might always aim to look perfect or be the best at everything they do. When people set such high standards, they might feel disappointed often because perfection is very hard to reach. Instead, it’s important to set realistic goals and be kind to ourselves. For example, saying, "I'll try my best on this project" is much healthier than saying "I need to be perfect, or I’m a failure." This way, people can enjoy their achievements and feel more satisfied with their efforts.
