在你自己的时区，一切都刚刚好

New York is 3 hours ahead of California,
But it does not make California slow.
Someone graduated①at the age of 22,
But waited 5 years before securing a good job!
Obama retires②at 55, but Trump starts at 70.
Absolutely③everyone in this world works based on their time zone.
People around you might seem to go ahead of you, some might seem to be behind you.
But everyone is running their own race, in their own time.
Don’t envy them or mock④them.
They are in their time zone⑤. And you are in yours!
Life is about waiting for the right moment to act.
So, relax.
You’re not late. You're not early.
You are very much on time, and in your time zone.

纽约比加利福尼亚州的时区早三个小时，
但是加利福尼亚的步调却不会因此放缓。
有人22岁毕业，5年后才找到很棒的工作。
奥巴马55岁退休，特朗普70岁才开始。
显然，每个人都有属于自己的时区。
你周围的人可能看起来比你跑得远，或是被你落在后面。
但每个人都在属于自己的时间里，用自己的节奏前行。
不要嫉妒他们，或是嘲讽。
他们只是生活在自己的时区里，正如你自己。
等待属于自己的绽放时刻。
放轻松。
你不晚，也不早。
在你自己的时区，一切都刚刚好。
