人生成功12课(5~8课)
人生成功第5课:Hold fast to dreams
We all have dreams. We all want to believe deep down in our souls that we have a special gift, that we can make a difference, that we can touch others in a special way, and that we can make the world a better place.
At one time in our lives, we all had a vision for the quality of life that we desire and deserve. Yet, for many of us, those dreams have become so shrouded in the frustrations and routines of daily life that we no longer even make an effort to accomplish them. For far too many, the dream has dissipated – and with it, so has the will to shape our destinies. Many have lost that sense of certainty that creates the winner’s edge.
What we should do is to restore the dreams and to make it real, to get each f us to remember and use the unlimited power that lies sleeping within us all.
译文: 紧紧抓住梦想
我们每个人都有梦想。我们每个人都希望能发自内心地相信自已有一种特殊的天赋,相信自己能发挥重要的作用,相信自己能以一种特殊的方式感动他人,相信自己能够把世界变得更加美好。
在一生中,我们都曾经对自己渴望并追求的生活品质抱有憧憬。然而,对我们大多数人来说,这些憧憬在日常生活的成规和挫败中已经变得如此渺茫,以到于我们甚至不再努力去实现它们。对太多人来说,梦想已经远离,随之远离的还有塑造我们命运的意愿。很多人已经推动了坚定的信念,而正是坚定的信念为胜利者创造了优势。
我们所要做的就是重拴梦想,并实现梦想,让我们每个人都记住,并去运用深藏在自己身上的无限潜能。
人生成功第6课:Nothing can take the place of persistence
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful individuals with talent. Genius will not; unrewarding genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
Perseverance does not always mean sticking to the same thing forever. It means giving full concentration and effort to whatever you are doing, right now! It means doing the tough things first and looking downstream for gratification and rewards. It means being happy in your work, but hungry for more knowledge and progress. It means making more calls, going more miles, pulling more weeds, getting up earlier in the day and always being on the lookout for a better way of doing what you’re doing. Persistence is success though trial and error.
译文: 毅力无法替代
世界上没有任何东西可以替代毅力。才干不可以,无所作为的能人十分普遍;天分不可以,碌碌无为的天才尽人皆知;教育不可以,受过良好教育的没落者更是随处可见。只要有毅力和决心,就是无所不能的。
毅力并不总是意味着永远坚持做同一件事。它意味着无论你做任何事情,你都要立刻全心投入,竭尽全力;它意味着先做艰苦的工作,再去期待随之而来的满足和回报。它意味着开心地工作,渴望更多的知识和进步。它意味着多打几个电话,多夏装几里路,多除草,早起床,意味着总是寻求更好的方式去做你在做的事情。毅力就是经历考验和过失的成功。
人生成功第7课: I am nature's greatest miracle
Since the beginning of time never has there been another with my mind, my heart, my eyes, my ears, my hands, my hair, my mouth.
I am the end product of thousands of years of evolution; therefore, I am better equipped in both mind and body than all the emperors and wise men who preceded me. I have unlimited potential. I am a unique creature.
I am not on this earth by chance. I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand.
Henceforth will I apply all my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy.
I will win, and I will become the greatest person, for I am unique.
I am nature's greatest miracle.
译文: 我是世界上最伟大的奇迹
自从上帝创造了天地万物以来,没有一个人和我一样,我的头脑,我的心灵,我的眼睛,我的耳朵,我的头发,我的嘴都是与众不同的。
我是千万件来进化的终端产物,因此,我的头脑和身体都超过以往所有的帝王和智者。我有无尽的潜力。我是个独一无二的生命。
我不是偶然间来到这个世界上的。我是为着一个目的来的,这个目的就是成为一座高山,而不是变为一料细沙。
我将成功,我将成为最伟大的人,因为我是独一无二的。
我是世界上最伟大的奇迹。
人生成功第8课: Stop to smell the flowers
In the hustle and bustle of modern-day life, people seldom stop to enjoy the beauty of nature.
Ask yourself how many times you have listened to the birds sing. And when was the last time you looked at the sparking stars twinkle in the sky?
Time files and life is short. So don’t forget to stop to smell the flowers. In our eagerness to make a living, we often forget about our quality of life. Too often you hear people say, “I am too busy,” for this or that. What a shame! One day, when they do find time to stop to smell the flowers, it might be too late.
译文: 驻足片刻闻花香
在现代生活的忙忙碌碌中,人们很少会停下来欣赏自然的美。
问问自己,你有多少次倾听过鸟儿的歌唱。你最近一次抬头仰望闪耀的星空又是在什么时候?
时光飞逝,人生苦短。不要忘记驻足闻闻花香。我们在急于谋生的过程中,往往忽视了我们生活的品质。多少次,你听见人们为这为那说“我忙死了。”多可惜啊!有一天,当他们真的找到时间能够驻足片刻闻花香时,可能已经太迟了。
