成功的定義英文翻譯
成功的定義是什麼?在中國,成功的定義是什麼?總有人會這麼問。 答案是:“做自己.” 世俗對成功的定義是有錢,有車,有房,以及再有點別的物質的東西,其實不一樣的人,成功的定義也不一樣。以下是小編分享的,一起來和小編看看吧。
關於成功的定義
We can list a lot about the standard of success: family happiness, prosperity and good health, give full play to their potential, to live with the goal to pursue, in the professional field has created, has been widely recognized and respected, contributing to society, to do their own love......
Each of us has his own definition of success. Everyone's concept of success is not the same, because everyone's personal experience, values and awareness of life are different. The success is probably really different, we have to find their own specific success criteria.
We also have different standards of success at different ages: school, work, marriage, career, education...... Confucius is planning a different tasks in different stages: sanshierli, at forty, fifty, sixty, seventy I knew no more than a moment and have whatever is desired.
My idea of success in the past is to have as many people as possible. The more people influence the better, the greater the degree of influence. I've been thinking about it a long time ago, and I know it's all about ego. When I was a young man, I worked as a TV show and became a host. Many years later, I became a teacher. I found that when a teacher can feel more intuitive to influence their own brings to others, and this impact is more far-reaching, this feeling in the host than entertain a lot better.
I think the book can affect many people, so wrote a book. Of course, soon found that can affect how many people depend on how your book sales, whether you will hype. I also think that movies can influence a lot of people, so I went to the movies and tried to write movies.
In short, think of what they do will affect a lot of people, feel very cool, feel great.
And then my thoughts changed.
A friend of mine, forty years old, frustrated, no girlfriend, mood is very low. I told him you weren't as successful as you thought.
Because I think some people around him seem to be a good mix of people, in the face of a bit of frustration, it showed unusual calm, easy to collapse. Such a ratio, in front of the failure of a friend to talk to me calmly, it is not too failure.
So I found that, if only by external labels, we basically do not see who is more successful who do not succeed. The key is to look at a person's heart.
It is not difficult to detect whether a person is successful or not. Every one of us can assume that you are forty years old, you have no job, or you have a low salary, no boyfriend or girlfriend. So, how would you feel? What state?
So you can see how successful you are.
In my opinion, the real meaning of worldly success is not successful, nor for self expansion up to influence more people. A successful person is not successful? Some are, some are not. We know that there are many successful people are still living in a troubled, anxious and fearful day, filled with jealousy, insecurity, anxiety, anger not yet appeased other emotions, such success is not truly successful people.
And a lot of humble people are not necessarily unsuccessful. Our district has a cleaning aunt, every time to see me and the children, with a very bright smile and talk to us. Two days ago, we met her at the fruit store. She just got off work, bought a bag of apricot, see us, immediately took out a few apricot, not to give the child. Now think about it, I think she's a very successful man!
Ordinary people like us can be seen everywhere!
By my standards, a truly successful person is not only to see him make a big contribution to the society, at the same time, his state of mind: he can not even in all circumstances, can still feel good, still have a sense of security, can be happy, balanced and positive, can not catch. Keep all kinds of style should be elegant, can get up to appreciate beauty, to have a sense of humor, and can continue to care for others, for others.
Real personal success is not measured in terms of money and fame, but by how your mind is trained. Because even the mundane success, the ultimate goal is also to money, status and fame and so on for a sense of security, respect, self-confidence, and psychological balance and satisfaction. The problem is that it is hard and unreliable to achieve the balance of mind with something else. These things, once you get, or get lost again, or have been constantly afraid of losing your worries, are unable to achieve peace of mind. Therefore, such a success is superficial, temporary, precarious, it is hardly a success, at best, just play a good game.
The real success is not afraid of the economic crisis and the stock market ups and downs, not afraid of being afraid of the trend of change, not afraid of exposure, decent or not, not afraid of public sector is to buy it. Because the real success in your heart, who can not take away.
Speaking of which, I think a lot of the old saying: "Anpinyuedao", "does not", "immune to temptations, poverty can not be changed"...... I think of the ancients China depicted the gentleman, sages of the standard, this is often what we believe to be pedantic, is to fool people, the feudal rulers by sociologist Marx. Webb called the "idealism" only aesthetic standards.
I think, this gentleman, sages, than now successful standard, closer to the true definition of success.
Write this, want to talk about my father.
My father has been in this life is the meaning of secular success: from the countryside to put pig baby, retired University Professor, head of Department of Chinese. During this period he made a lot of contributions to the Chinese department. The Chinese department is a person who is active and not well managed. Some teachers said, as long as your dad sitting in an office, you heart alone. At home, he almost every day up early to cook, is a very hard-working, very homely, good-natured husband and father.
I'm not talking about these successes.
Now think about it, about ten years since his father suffered from Parkinson. Because ten years ago, parents go to Australia to play, he began to write handshaken. A boat in Australia he waddled fell down, when we laugh, now know that Parkinson's symptoms.
In this family, he in the upper ability in the end, in my daughter. My daughter talk to action than he is agile, just three years old can push his wheelchair every day, give him the fruit, with a stick, find glasses, switch the TV, often look for him to learn the kindergarten teacher in class".
Dad is very difficult to work, to sit on the chair we need to command and dispatch, as slowly as the spacecraft docking. Up and down the stairs is very dangerous, I said this is your small step, a big step for mankind. Constipation is also very serious. Mom said that other people have more fun than you.
My mother is a child, he is 75 years old, when the body is not good will be nagging complaints. The nurse is a forthright person, loud, sometimes anxious also said he. I am busy with my children every day, or busy with their own things, often ignored, sometimes impatient.
And the father silently bear all this: physical, psychological. He never complained, not angry, not pessimistic. Uncomfortable when you sat frowning. When we are good, we look at you kindly. He is concerned about current affairs and everyone at home. He tried to help us, but in the end he was always helping and being told. He doesn't talk much, but often stunned. Yesterday my mother went to the market to buy his favorite corn. To eat him, ask him: "bawmi OK?" Dad said: "no good wife."
Most of the time, looking at his crutches in constant trembling, watching him hard to take every step, my heart will give birth to the immense respect.
Sometimes holding him, imperceptibly into his world, empathy to experience his every move, think of him every time need to mobilize the strength and courage, often very shocking. I think if I make a movie about his life, it will shock many people!
I told my dad that all of this knowledge you have in your life is nothing else, just to get you to fight Parkinson gracefully!
As we have said before, success is the grace to live without anything. Nothing compares to my father. When a person can not take care of themselves, if you can still be elegant, it is the biggest success!
Confucius said, seventy and have whatever is desired no more than a moment. That is to say, at the age of seventy, we should be able to really practice their own heart. So look, dad did Confucius standard.
Later, I told my father this evaluation, he slowly replied: "this is not right." I asked why I thought I was missing or wrong. He said: "not done."
Finally, I would like to quote a definition of success that I like very much.
American writer and thinker Emerson said: can often laugh and the heart is full of love; to get the respect and the love of children; to win sincere praise and critics can endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to see the merits of others; to pay their own; the world can become a little bit better. Whether by a healthy child, a garden path, or one from you and improve social conditions; with great enthusiasm to play, laugh, sing; to know even one life because you have to breathe easier -- this is the success. The.
譯文:
我們可以列出一大堆關於成功的標準:家庭幸福、事業有成、身體健康、充分發揮了自己的潛力、生活得有目標有追求、在專業領域有所造就、取得了廣泛的認可和尊重、對社會有貢獻、做自己喜歡的事……
我們每個人都有自己對成功的定義。每個人的成功概念都不盡相同,因為大家的個人經歷、價值觀和對生活的認識都不同。而成功大概也真的要因人而異,我們都要自己去尋找自己的具體的成功標準。
我們在不同的年齡段也有不同的成功標準:學業、找工作、婚戀、事業、教育孩子……孔子就規劃出了不同階段的不同任務:三十而立、四十不惑、五十知天命、六十耳順、七十而從心所欲不逾矩。
我過去的成功概念是:要儘可能對更多的人有好的影響。影響的人越多越好,影響程度越大越好。我從很早就這樣想,我也很清楚這完全是出於自我***ego***的需要。在很年輕的時候我做過電視節目,還當過主持人。很多年後,我當過教師。我發現當老師能更直觀地感受到自己給他人帶來的影響,而且這影響也更深遠,這感覺比當主持人在那娛樂大家要好很多。
我還認為寫書能影響很多人,所以寫過書。當然很快發現能影響多少人取決於你的書銷量如何,你是否會炒作。我還認為電影能影響很多人,所以在國外進一步學了電影,也嘗試去寫電影。
總之,想到自己做的事情將會影響很多人,就感覺很爽,覺得自己很了不起。
後來我的想法有了一些變化。
我的一個朋友,四十歲了,工作失意,沒有女朋友,情緒很低落。我跟他說你不見得像你以為的那樣不成功。
因為我想到周圍一些貌似比他混得好的人,在遇到一點挫折時,就表現出異常的不平靜,極易崩潰。這麼一比,前面那個有失敗感的朋友能平靜地跟我談話,也就不算太失敗。
所以我發現,如果單憑外在的種種標籤,我們基本上看不出來誰更成功誰不成功。關鍵是看一個人的內心。
要檢測一個人是否成功並不難。我們每個人都可以假設一下:你四十歲,沒工作或者職位卑微收入微薄、沒男友或女友,總之,你沒有你這個年齡的人應該有的一切。那麼,你會是什麼感覺?什麼狀態?
這樣你就可以知道自己究竟有多成功了。
在我看來,真正的成功並非世俗含義的事業有成,也不是為了讓自我膨脹起來而去影響更多人。事業有成的人算不算成功?有的是,有的不是。我們知道有很多事業有成的人,每天依舊生活在惴惴不安、憂慮重重之中,內心充滿了嫉妒、焦慮、忿忿不平、不安全感等情緒,這樣的成功人士自然不是真正成功的人。
而很多地位卑微的人也不見得就是不成功的。我們小區有個保潔阿姨,每次見到我和孩子,都以極其燦爛的笑容跟我們說話。前兩天,我們在水果店碰到她。她剛下班,買了一兜杏,看到我們,馬上掏出幾個杏,非要給孩子。現在想想,我覺得她是個挺成功的人!
我們身邊這樣的平凡的成功人士隨處可見!
以我的標準,一個真正成功的人不僅僅看他對社會做出多大貢獻,同時也看他內心的狀態:他能否即便在一無所有的情況下,仍然能對自己感覺不錯,仍有安全感,能開心、平衡、積極,能不抓狂,能保持應有的種種風格,能優雅得起來,能欣賞美,能有幽默的力量,並能繼續關心他人、為他人付出。
真正的個人意義上的成功不以金錢和名氣來衡量,而是看你的心靈脩煉到了怎樣的境界。因為即便是世俗的成功,其最終目標也還是以金錢、地位和名氣等等來換得安全感、尊重、自信,以及心理上的種種平衡和滿足。而問題是,用外來的東西去達到內心的平衡狀態,這種方法又費力又不可靠。這些身外之物,一旦你得不到,或者得到了又失去,或者得到了又時時憂慮害怕失去,那你都無法達到內心的平和。所以,這樣的成功是表面的、一時的、岌岌可危的,也就幾乎算不上是成功了,充其量只是玩好了某一樣遊戲而已。
真正的成功是不怕股市起落和經濟危機、不怕被人曝光、不怕潮流變遷、不怕行業體面與否、不怕大眾是否買賬。因為真正的成功在你的心裡,是誰也奪不走的。
說到這,我想起了很多古老的說法:“安貧樂道”、“不以物喜,不以己悲”、“富貴不能淫,貧賤不能移”……我想起了中國古人所描繪的君子、聖賢的標準,這常常被我們認為是迂腐的、是封建統治者用來愚昧百姓的、被社會學家馬克斯.韋伯稱為“只有審美意義的理想主義”的標準。
我認為,這個君子、聖賢的標準,比起現在事業有成的標準,更接近真正的成功的定義。
寫到這,想講講我的父親。
我爸爸這輩子已經算是達到了世俗含義的成功了:從農村的放豬娃,到退休時的大學教授、中文系系主任。這期間他為中文系做出了許多貢獻。中文系是個人人都思想活躍,不太好管理的機構。有的老師說,只要你爸在辦公室裡坐著,大家心裡就有底了。在家裡,他幾乎天天起早做飯,是個很勤勞、很顧家、脾氣又好的丈夫和爸爸。
我要說的不是這些成功。
現在想想,大概父親患帕金森已有十年曆史了。因為十年前父母去澳洲遊玩時,他寫字就開始手抖。一次在澳洲的遊船上他站不穩摔倒了,當時我們一笑了之,現在明白那就是帕金森症狀。
現在家裡面,他在能力上排在最後,在我女兒之後。我女兒說話行動都比他利索,剛三歲就能推動他的輪椅,每天給他遞水果、拿柺杖、找眼鏡、開關電視,還常學幼兒園老師的樣子給他“上課”。
爸爸行動很吃力,往椅子上坐需要我們指揮排程,緩慢得像太空船在對接。上下樓梯很驚險,我說這是你的一小步,人類的一大步。便祕也很嚴重。媽媽說別人生孩子都比你這痛快。
媽媽是急性子,自己也75歲了,身體不好時難免會嘮叨抱怨。保姆是個直率的人,大嗓門,有時急了也大聲說他兩句。我每天忙著孩子,或是忙自己的事,對爸爸常常忽視,有時也沒耐心。
而爸爸就默默地承受著這一切:身體上的、心理上的。他從不抱怨、不發火、不悲觀。不舒服時,就眉頭緊鎖地坐著。好一些時,就慈祥地看著我們。他關心時事、關心家裡的每個人。他常試圖幫我們,但最後總是幫了倒忙,又被說一頓。他說話不多,但常常語出驚人。昨天媽媽去早市買了他愛吃的玉米。給他吃了,問他:“包米好不好?”爸爸說:“沒有老伴好。”
很多時候,看著他的柺杖在不停地顫抖,看著他艱難地邁出每一步,我心裡就生出無比的敬意。
有時扶著他時,不知不覺進入他的世界,感同身受去體驗他的每一個舉動,想想他每時每刻需要調動的勇氣和力量,常常很受震撼。我想如果拍一部他的生活的電影,那一定能震撼很多人!
我曾跟爸爸說過,你這輩子所有的這些學問不為別的,就為了讓你現在能優雅地跟帕金森作鬥爭!
前面說過,成功就是在一無所有的情況下仍能優雅地生活。跟我父親相比,一無所有算什麼。當一個人幾乎不能自理時,如果仍能優雅得起來,那才是最大的成功!
孔子說,七十而從心所欲不逾矩。就是說,到了七十歲,我們應該能真正修煉好了自己的內心。這麼看,爸爸已經做到了孔老夫子的標準。
後來我把這個評價告訴了爸爸,他緩慢地回答:“這樣說不對。”我問為什麼,以為我遺漏了或弄錯了什麼。他說:“沒有做到。”
最後想引用一個我很喜歡的成功的定義。
美國文學家、思想家愛默生這樣說:能夠時常大笑並且心中充滿愛;能得到智者的尊重和兒童的喜愛;能贏得真誠的評論家的讚許並能忍受虛假的朋友的背叛;能欣賞美;能看到他人的優點;能付出自己;能把世界變得更好一點——不論是以一個健康的孩子、一個花園小路、還是一個由你而得到改善的社會狀況;能以無比的熱情玩過、笑過、歌唱過;能知道哪怕只有一個生命因為你的存在而呼吸得更容易一些——這,就是成功了。
