STEP 45 ALONE I CAN DO NOTHING.

ALONE YOU CAN DO NOTHING. Nothing has ever been accomplished alone, even in your world. Nothing has ever been created alone, even in your mind. There is no credit to be received by doing something alone. Everything is a joint effort. Everything is the product of relationship.

你一个人什么也做不了。没有什么能独自完成，即使在你的世界里。没有任何事物是独自创造的，即使是在你的脑海中。单枪匹马是无法取得任何成就的。一切都是共同努力的结果。一切都是关系的产物。

DOES THIS DEMEAN YOU AS AN INDIVIDUAL? Most certainly not. It gives you the environment and the understanding to realize your true accomplishments. You are greater than your individuality, and thus you may be free of its limitations. You work through the individual that is you personally, but you are greater than this. Accept the limitations of a limited self, and do not require a limited self to be God or you will give it great burdens and great expectations and will then punish it for its failures. This leads to self-hatred. This leads you to resent your physical life and to abuse yourself personally, emotionally and physically. Accept your limitations so that you may accept greatness within your life.

这并不是贬低你作为一个个体。它为你提供了环境和理解，让你意识到自己真实的成就。你远远超越了个体的局限性，因此你可以摆脱这些限制。你通过个人的方式工作，但你远比个体更伟大。接受有限自我的局限性，不要期望有限的自我成为上帝，否则你会给它巨大的负担和巨大的期望，然后因为它的失败而惩罚它。这会导致自我厌恶。这会让你对自己的生命产生怨恨，并对自己进行人身、情感和身体上的虐待。接受自己的局限性，这样你就可以接受生命中的伟大。

THEREFORE, IN YOUR TWO PRACTICE PERIODS TODAY, with your eyes open, concentrate now on your limitations. Recognize them. Do not judge them as good or bad. Simply recognize them. This gives you humility, and in humility you are in a position to receive greatness. If you are defending your limitations, how can you receive that which transcends them?

因此，在今天的两次练习中，睁大你的眼睛，集中精力关注你的局限性。承认它们。不要评判它们的好坏。只需承认它们。这让你变得谦逊，而在谦逊中，你才能获得伟大。如果你为自己的局限性辩护，你怎么能接受局限性之外的关系呢？
