Don't do it for the money 不要為錢而去做
"Money comes after. If you're planning only to make money and nothing else, you'll be broke."
“錢是次之的東西。如果你只是計劃去賺錢而不是為了其他的,你將會失敗。”
He continued: "It's a long process, you're not going to achieve what you want overnight, but the more you give, the more you get."
他接著說:"這需要長期的過程,你不可能立馬獲得你想要的東西,但是你付出的越多,你的回報就越多。"
Compete against yourself 與自己競賽
When Gebrselassie is running a race, he's doesn't think about what the other athletes are doing, he's too busy racing against himself.
當海里在比賽中跑步時,他不會去想其他運動員正在干什么,他非常專注于與自己比賽。
"I don't think about if I have to be number one, two or three. I don't think I have to win the race, what I'm thinking about is that I have to run faster."
“我不會想是否我能成為第1名還是第2名,第3名。我會去想我必須要贏得這場比賽,我想的是我必須跑得更快。”
That applies to whether you're running a race or racing up the the corporate ladder.
不管你是參加比賽跑步還是在公司往上競爭爬梯子這都適用。
He continued: "You're race is not against other athletes, it's against the time, it's against yourself. I really think this really gives me an advantage. You're not worried about them so much, you focus on what you are doing.
他繼續說道:“你不是與其他運動員競爭,你是與時間競爭,與你自己競爭。我認為這使我擁有了一項優勢。你不需要擔心很多,你只需要專注于你正在做的事情上面。”
