Beyond Success 超越成功

Over the past two decades I've had the opportunity to advise and recruit many extraordinary individuals. Often, these are people who have reached the pinnacle of success. Yet what's become clear to me is that reaching even the highest-profile, highest-paid, or highest-prestige positions isn't what's most important.

在過去的二十年里，我有機會聘請許多杰出的人物并給他們建議。這些人大多都取得了輝煌的成功。然而我認(rèn)識到（在他們的職業(yè)生涯中），獲得最高評價、最高收入或最高聲望譽的職位都不是最重要的。

Sure, it's great to achieve all these things, and very few who do complain about it. But whether they've already reached the top, are just starting out, or are somewhere along the way, almost everyone yearns -- especially when they take the time to reflect -- for something more fundamentally gratifying in their lives.

當(dāng)然，要實現(xiàn)所有這些是很好，而且不會有多少人會去抱怨這些東西。但是，不論是否他們已經(jīng)到達(dá)了巔峰，還是剛剛起步，還是正在路上，幾乎人人都在渴求生活中更基本的令人滿意的事情，這種欲望在他們反思的時候尤為強烈。
