1.2 Set Your Sights on Success志在成功
Success is not measured by position you reach in life, it's measured by obstacles you overcome.
——Booker T. Washington
成功不能用一生获得的地位来衡量,而要用你克服的障碍来衡量。——布克·T·华盛顿
Success does not belong to the rich and famous. It should be the goal of everyone. Many successful people have had humble beginnings.
成功并不只属于富人和名人,它应该是每个人的目标。很多成功者始于卑微。
At work, we strive for achievements too. Success may mean organizing a conference more effectively and effeciently each year. Sometimes, it is not a pat on the back or the promotion that makes it worthwhile.
工作上我们也在争取成就。成功或许意味着每年组织了一次更有成效的会议。有时,成功的价值并不在于被人拍拍后背获得晋升。
Often, it is the inner thrill and satisfaction of achievement, no matter how small it may be.
成功常常是做成某件事时所感受到的发自内心的振奋与满足,而不管这种成就是多么微不足道。
Aiming for success doesn't mean you are gready or dissatisfied. It is all part of gaining new experiences and dimensions in life. It ultimately makes you a more interesting and useful person in society.
志在成功并不意味着你很贪婪或不满足,追求成功的过程也就是获取心的经验、体验生活之方方面面的过程。他能使你成为一个富有情趣的人,一个对社会有益的人。
The journey to success has its road blocks, discouragement and distractions. It takes great resourcefulness and achievement to overcome obstacles and setbacks to move on successfully.
成功之旅有很多路障、挫折和困惑。需要相当的智谋和能力才能克服路途中的重重障碍,一步一步地向成功迈进!
