“為了成功，你對(duì)成功的欲望一定大于對(duì)失敗的恐懼?！薄葼?考斯比 by Om Swami
|
Almost everyone I know
wants to succeed. And genuinely so. Their efforts are sincere and their
intentions, noble. They even try hard. Why is it that some people succeed at
most things they undertake while many others fail at anything they try? It is
not uncommon to see that some people get really lucky. They end up at the right
place at the right time and success just happens to them, or so it
seems.
幾乎我認(rèn)識(shí)的每一個(gè)人都想成功。真的是這樣。他們的努力都很真誠(chéng)，目標(biāo)也很崇高。他們甚至想法設(shè)法去獲取成功。為什么有些人所做的事大多都能成功，而有些人卻總是失??？撞大運(yùn)的人并不常見。他們占盡天時(shí)地利，然后就成功了，大概就是這個(gè)樣子。
When you are serious
about success, it is serious about you too. When you keep chiseling away at your
goal, you learn to identify opportunities and make use of them. Today, I bring
to you five principles of success. When we follow these principles, our chances
of being at the right place at the right time go up significantly. These five
golden principles will help you stay motivated right till the end.
當(dāng)你認(rèn)真對(duì)待成功的時(shí)候，成功也會(huì)認(rèn)真對(duì)待你。當(dāng)你將你的目標(biāo)銘記于心，你就會(huì)學(xué)著識(shí)別機(jī)會(huì)利用機(jī)會(huì)?，F(xiàn)在，我告訴你五條成功法則。遵循這些法則，我們得到天時(shí)地利的機(jī)會(huì)就會(huì)顯著增加。這五條黃金法則將使你自始自終都雄心勃勃。

Positivity
1、積極
“What doesn’t kill us
makes us stronger.” ~ Friedrich Nietzsche
致命弱點(diǎn)使我們更加強(qiáng)壯。
Being positive is a
habit. It’s a matter of choice. It doesn’t mean that one let goes of actions and
wait for things to happen. Positivity is about chasing your dreams with a heart
for any fate. It is reminding yourself that your world has not come to an end
and that there’s plenty more you can do. Positivity makes you proactive and
sharpens your intellect. Being positive is not about false reassurance or vain
affirmations, it is about action. 2. Patience
積極是一種習(xí)慣，是一種選擇。它并不是指守株待兔。積極是用心去追逐你的夢(mèng)想。它使你提醒自己你的世界末日并不存在，你還有很多事情要做。積極使你變得主動(dòng)并且明智。積極并不是虛假的保證或者無用的斷言，它是實(shí)實(shí)在在的行動(dòng)。
2、耐心
This is the most
common roadblock on the journey to success. Patience is knowing that Rome wasn’t
built in a day. Your habits were not formed overnight, you did not gain weight
in a matter of days, similarly, you cannot break old habits or change yourself
in jiffy. Think of an artist, a sculptor or a builder. They keep working on
their project, one stroke, one brick at a time. If you are serious about gaining
body mass or losing weight, improving your skills at tennis or boosting your
memory, you must not forego patience. When you stay course, taking one step at a
time, you will finish a journey of thousand miles before long. 3.
Persistence
通往成功的路上障礙重重。耐心就是懂得羅馬不是一天建成的。你的的習(xí)慣也不是一天形成的，你不可能一口吃成胖子，簡(jiǎn)單地說，你不能立刻就能改掉你的壞習(xí)慣并改變你自己。想想藝術(shù)家，雕刻家或是建筑師。他們只能一磚一瓦的完成他們的項(xiàng)目。如果你想立刻就能增加體重或者減肥，提高你的網(wǎng)球技能或者增加收入，你一定把耐心拋諸腦后。當(dāng)你一步一個(gè)腳印時(shí)，你就會(huì)走過千山萬水。
3、堅(jiān)持
“It’s not that I’m
smarter, I just stay with problems longer.” ~ Albert Einstein
“我并不聰明，我只是花更多的時(shí)間思考難題?！薄柌?愛因斯坦
When you are
persistent, results certainly show through. And with positive results, it
becomes easier to be motivated. Patience thrives in the persistent mind. Imagine
a tennis match between two champions. The one who can patiently and consistently
play one good shot after the other, staying persistent, will eventually win over
the other opponent. One common trait among the most successful across the globe
has been their persistence. When you are persistent, new ideas spring up
automatically. 4. Discipline
只要堅(jiān)持，功到自然成。伴隨積極的結(jié)果，它就更容易被激發(fā)。耐心在堅(jiān)持中枝繁葉茂。想象兩個(gè)冠軍之間的網(wǎng)球比賽。狹路相逢，耐心擊球并堅(jiān)持不懈的人才能獲得最終的勝利你。全世界的成功人士的共同的特質(zhì)就是他們的堅(jiān)持。當(dāng)你堅(jiān)持不懈，就會(huì)想出好主意。
4、紀(jì)律
We are often
motivated by the results, by the joy of reaching at the destination. The primary
difference between an elusive dream and a real goal is that the latter has
discipline and action. Discipline is sticking to your mental and physical
routine, it’s going by the plan, it’s about following your course of action. The
best way to follow any discipline is to ignore your heart. For example, you
committed yourself to hit the gym four times a week. Today, you are feeling lazy
and don’t want to go to the gym. All you’ve got to do is not listen to your
mind. Just get to the gym. Once there, you will find it easy to do your workout.
5. Visualization
結(jié)果和達(dá)到目的之后的愉悅常常激發(fā)我們。難以企及的美夢(mèng)和一個(gè)真實(shí)的目標(biāo)之間最大的差別是后者擁有紀(jì)律和行動(dòng)。幾率是按常規(guī)堅(jiān)持你的精神和身體，一切都照計(jì)劃進(jìn)行，遵循行動(dòng)的進(jìn)程。遵守紀(jì)律的最好方法是忽略你的內(nèi)心。例如，你承諾自己一周要去健身房鍛煉四次。今天，你感到困倦，不想去健身房。那么你必須做的就是不聽從你的頭腦，繼續(xù)去健身房。只要到了那里，你就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)鍛煉其實(shí)很容易。
5、可視
“Thoughts become
things.” ~ Buddha
“思想可以成為現(xiàn)實(shí)”——釋迦牟尼
This one is less
shared by the successful people. When you are patient, persistent, positive and
disciplined, your thoughts become really powerful. That is the view shared by
many yogic texts as well. Your will-power and calmness in the mind gets a
massive boost. You can then carry out your visualizations with much greater
success. Visualization can have amazing, if not miraculous, effect in keeping
you motivated and helping you realize your goals. With a wavering mind and weak
resolve, law of attraction will remain a mythical concept. (A while ago I wrote
on how to make law of attraction work for you. It requires a certain type of
mindset. For better understanding, you can read up here.)
這條原則為成功人士較少分享。當(dāng)你有耐心，堅(jiān)持不屑，積極向上，遵守紀(jì)律，你的思想就會(huì)變得強(qiáng)大。這種觀點(diǎn)也被很多瑜伽書籍采納。你的意志力和頭腦的冷靜將得到極大地提高。然后你就會(huì)獲得更大的成功。如果不是奇跡，可是是令人驚奇的力量保持你的動(dòng)力并幫助你達(dá)成目標(biāo)。對(duì)于一個(gè)左右搖擺和并不堅(jiān)強(qiáng)的決心，吸引定律仍將是一個(gè)神秘的概念。（一段時(shí)間以前，我寫了如何使吸引定律為你工作。它需要某種類型的心態(tài)。為了更好地理解，你可以在這里閱讀。）undefined
Go on! Take life by
the horns and dictate your own terms. Succeeding is a habit too. It’s the one
worth cultivating.
加油！吹響生命的號(hào)角，支配自己的生活。成功也是一種習(xí)慣。它值得培養(yǎng)。undefined Principles of Attaining Success
order to succeed, your desire to succeed must be greater than your fear of
failure.” ~ Bill Cosby
