Why are you not reaching the success?

你為什么沒有成功？

You use up yourreserves.

你耗盡了儲備。

When I've found myself at my lowest points, it's always been for lack of a reserve — whether of money, of time, or most crucially of energy.

當我發現自己處在最低谷時，這總表示缺乏儲備——無論是金錢還是時間，或者是最關鍵的能源。

In part this was the fault of inadequateplanning and over-certainty — I should have reassessed my situation morerealistically before exhausting my resources — but whatever the cause, it's adangerous place to be.

在某種程度上來說，這是計劃不足和過度肯定的后果。——在耗盡我的儲備以前，我要對現狀重新做一次更實際的評估。——無論如何，這都是危險的情況。

A mistake that could be easily recoveredfrom under normal circumstances becomes overwhelming when you're too broke or too exhausted to respond adequately.

一個在正常情況下可以很容易被糾正的錯誤會在你精疲力盡不能對它作出適當反應的時候變得勢不可擋。

Keep track of where you are financially,materially, and emotionally before you find yourself too worn down to continue.

在你覺得情況太壞而不能繼續以前，要在財務上、物質上和情感上保持跟蹤。
