但是，这个“不折腾”怎么翻呢？据说难坏了各路翻译精英们。

上述译法，觉得都不够准确，不够精彩，没有把“折腾”的全部意思表达出来。这里推荐一个译法，感觉比较恰当：: w- U/ }, q- X Y! R5 s z, T
/ x! n+ e1 J+ J- |8 s avoid self-inflicted setbacks (不折腾)- F& a+ \& ]' W3 \/ [3 N

原因是：

“self-inflicted” has the connotation of creating theunnecessarypain for one self.

( Q* \- @! C. U, q8 M0 ^" ` “Setback” is a much better word than “trouble”, whichanunseasoned translator would like to use in the firstinstance.“Setback” especially refers to the obstacle ordifficultyencountered in achieving a strategic goal. |
