雙語美文要給自己成功的機會
如果我們想要在生活中獲得成功,失敗就是不可避免的。然而,我們很多人在遇到失敗的時候,都不知道如何去戰勝它,只好停滯不前。接下來,小編給大家準備了,歡迎大家參考與借鑑。
1. 給自己定目標,一年,兩年,五年,也許你出生不如別人好,通過努力,往往可以改變70%的命運。破罐子破摔只能和懦弱做朋友。
Don’t be afraid of the space between your dreams and reality. If you can dream it, you can make it so.
別對你的夢想和現實之間的差距感到畏懼,如果你有夢想,你就能實現它。
2. 不喜歡的人少接觸,但別在背後說壞話,說是非之人,必定是是非之人,謹記,禍從口出。
Don't become part of a workplace clique. As much as you might like some coworkers, you should maintain professional boundaries. Don't get drawn into gossiping, and don't take on other people's workplace battles just because you consider them friends.
不要拉幫結派。你可能對某些同事有好感,但要保持工作界限。不要散佈流言蜚語,不要因為你和某人是朋友就參與到他們的辦公室爭鬥之中。
3. 是人都有惰性,這是與生俱來的,但是我們後天可以改變這種惰性,因為有很多人正在改變。對於某種事物或是生意不要等別人做到了,我才想到。不要等別人已經賺到錢了,我才想去做。沒有人相信的是市場和機遇,大家都相信的叫做膨脹。
Many 20-somethings don't know what they want to do, so they hang around the house or in low-level jobs waiting for the spirit to move them. Not making a choice is a choice. These 20-somethings think they are keeping their options open, but they are actually closing doors. Resumes start look thin, their peers begin surpassing them and they may get stuck in underemployment.
很多20幾歲的年輕人不知道自己想要什麼,就宅在家裡,或做一些沒有技術含量的工作,等到哪天興致來了再去找更好的出路。不選擇也是一種選擇。這些20幾歲的年輕人覺得自己向機會敞開了大門,實際上他們是在把前路堵上。他們的簡歷會看上去很單薄,被同齡人趕超,還會受限於沒有充分的工作經驗。
4. 空閒時間不要經常上網做無聊的事和玩一些沒有意義的遊戲,讀點文學作品,學習一些經營流程,管理規範,國際時事,法律常識。這能保證你在任何聚會都有談資。
To sum up, often the hardest thing about combining work with study is making the decision to do it in the first place. Once you get started you will probably find that it’s not as difficult as you’d imagined. Studying doesn’t have to take over your life: just a few hours each week can make all the difference.
總的來說,在職學習最困難的部分往往在於一開始做出這個決定。一旦你開始學習也許就會發現,並沒有自己想象的那麼困難。沒有必要讓學習佔據你全部的生活:每週哪怕只學習幾個小時也會有很大不同。
5. 要做一件事,成功之前,沒有必要告訴其他人。成功之後不用你說,其他人都會知道的。這就是資訊時代所帶來的效應。
Always have your destination in mind; keep dreaming your big dreams. Once you cease dreaming, soon you will also lose your energy and be back to mediocrity.
始終銘記你的夢想,做你的夢,不要停。一旦你停止夢想,你就會失去繼續前行的力量,又變回一個平庸的人。
6. 不要相信算卦星座命理,那是哄小朋友的,命運掌握在自己手中。
When we fail, we might be tempted to think that we have wasted our time and thus regret it. But that’s should not be the case. The fact that you have done something is much better than doing nothing. Rise up and move on. The regret lies not in doing, but in not doing.
當我們遭遇失敗的時候,我們可能會後悔自己浪費了那麼多的時間去做一件失敗的事情。但事實並不是這樣的,去做永遠比不做好。失敗了,就再站起來,繼續前行。我們不應該後悔去做了什麼事,而是要後悔沒去做什麼事。
7. 出路出路,走出去了,總是會有路的。困難苦難,困在家裡就是難。
As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do. ——Andrew Carnegie, Founder of Carnegie Steel Company
隨著我漸漸變老,我越來越少在意人們在說些什麼。我只觀察他們做什麼。——安德魯-卡內基,卡內基鋼鐵公司,被譽為“鋼鐵大王”。
8. 力求上進的人,不要總想著靠誰誰,人都是自私的,自己才是最靠得住的人。
When you live for others’ opinions, you are dead.
如果你為別人的看法而活,那你已經死了。
9. 面對失敗,不要太計較,天將降大任於斯人也,必先苦其心志,勞其筋骨,餓起體膚……但要學會自責,找到原因,且改掉壞習慣。 二十歲沒錢,那很正常;三十歲沒錢,可能是沒有好的家境,需要更大的努力;四十歲沒錢,只能自己找原因。窮人變成富人是可能的,而且很可能。窮人能窮一輩子,也是必然的,存在就是理由,只是有所選擇。
Failure is inevitable if we are to succeed in life. Unfortunately, many people do not know how to overcome failure, and they are stopped by it when they encounter one. The ability to overcome failure is one big difference between successful and mediocre people.
如果我們想要在生活中獲得成功,失敗就是不可避免的。然而,我們很多人在遇到失敗的時候,都不知道如何去戰勝它,只好停滯不前。成功人士和平庸的人的區別就在於他們戰勝失敗的能力。
10. 每個人都有成功的機會!就看你給不給自己機會!
Believe you can and you’re halfway there.——Theodore Roosevelt
相信自己能做到,你就已經成功了一半。——西奧多·羅斯福美國總統
