双语阅读：逃避现实的7个特点，你占几个？

 

This is very common characteristic of all escapists, and it should be seen as a sign. As an escapist, you will have probably imagined this amazing future where you will be living the life of your dream. But when you go and pursue this dream, the shock of what the world is really like disappoints you. You will quickly realise this so go back to just imagining your dream world, where you feel happy.

这也是逃避现实者的常见特征。作为逃避现实者，你会为自己想象出一个美好的梦想未来，而当你准备努力追寻这个未来时，你会发现现实世界真的很打击人。很快你便发现，最好的办法就是继续做白日梦，至少这样你是快乐的。

 

If you have a tendency to daydream (a lot), then you could be an escapist. Escapists are people who want to create their own reality whilst they go about their daily routine. And these day dreams don't tend to happen purposefully; they actually happen quite naturally when you don't expect it. And when they do occur, you welcome them.

如果你经常做白日梦，那你可能就是个逃避现实者。撇开日常现实生活，逃避现实者更愿意营造一个属于自己的小世界；而他们所设想的白日梦往往不会刻意实现，只会在最不经意的时候顺其自然地出现；当白日梦真的成真时，那就尽情享受吧。

 

Although you may have all these aspirations to live your dream life, the truth is something is holding you back and it is preventing you from pursuing passion. The one thing that is holding you back is your fear of failure. In fact, you're petrified of failure. You keeping asking all these "what ifs" and they all revolve around failure. And because of this, you end up staying where you are and you start procrastinating.

虽然你雄心勃勃想过上梦想的生活，但总有些原因让你踟蹰不前，阻止你追随自己的激情。其中一个原因就是“对未来的恐惧”。说实话，你特别畏惧未来。你总在设想各种“万一”，这些“万一”都跟失败相关。正因如此，你只能拖拖拉拉、原地踏步。

 

 

If you are capable of making your own alternate reality in your mind, then you must be one imaginative and creative person. And because you developed this habit of imagining, you regularly exercise your creative muscles so you come up with new ideas all the time.

如果你很擅长为自己想象出另一种生活，那说明你想象力丰富、非常有创造力。而且，因为你经常不自主地东想西想，创新思维比较发达，所以总能冒出不少新颖的点子来。
