他的成就和人格魅力影響了一代人和整個(gè)世界，他就是擁有夢(mèng)幻般傳奇經(jīng)歷的蘋果電腦公司的創(chuàng)始人斯蒂夫·喬布斯。這個(gè)個(gè)人電腦領(lǐng)域的夢(mèng)想家引領(lǐng)并改變了整個(gè)計(jì)算機(jī)硬件和軟件產(chǎn)業(yè)。
這個(gè)精力充沛魅力無(wú)限的家伙同時(shí)也是一個(gè)很會(huì)鼓動(dòng)人心的激勵(lì)大師，甚至在他的平常對(duì)話中，經(jīng)典的語(yǔ)句也常常脫口而出。這里摘取了一些他的經(jīng)典語(yǔ)錄，希望這些喬氏語(yǔ)錄對(duì)你有所幫助：
1. Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower.
領(lǐng)袖和跟風(fēng)者的區(qū)別就在于創(chuàng)新。
Innovation has no limits. The only limit is your imagination. It's time for you to begin thinking out of the box. If you are involved in a growing industry, think of ways to become more efficient; more customer friendly; and easier to do business with. If you are involved in a shrinking industry – get out of it quick and change before you become obsolete; out of work; or out of business. And remember that procrastination is not an option here. Start innovating now!
創(chuàng)新無(wú)極限！只要敢想，沒(méi)有什么不可能，立即跳出思維的框框吧。如果你正處于一個(gè)上升的朝陽(yáng)行業(yè)，那么嘗試去尋找更有效的解決方案：更招消費(fèi)者喜愛(ài)、更簡(jiǎn)潔的商業(yè)模式。如果你處于一個(gè)日漸萎縮的行業(yè)，那么趕緊在自己變得跟不上時(shí)代之前抽身而出，去換個(gè)工作或者轉(zhuǎn)換行業(yè)。不要拖延，立刻開(kāi)始創(chuàng)新！
2. Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected.
成為卓越的代名詞，很多人并不能適合需要杰出素質(zhì)的環(huán)境。
There is no shortcut to excellence. You will have to make the commitment to make excellence your priority. Use your talents, abilities, and skills in the best way possible and get ahead of others by giving that little extra. Live by a higher standard and pay attention to the details that really do make the difference. Excellence is not difficult - simply decide right now to give it your best shot - and you will be amazed with what life gives you back.
成功沒(méi)有捷徑。你必須把卓越轉(zhuǎn)變成你身上的一個(gè)特質(zhì)。最大限度地發(fā)揮你的天賦、才能、技巧，把其他所有人甩在你后面。高標(biāo)準(zhǔn)嚴(yán)格自己，把注意力集中在那些將會(huì)改變一切的細(xì)節(jié)上。變得卓越并不艱難——從現(xiàn)在開(kāi)始盡自己最大能力去做——你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)生活將給你驚人的回報(bào)。
3. The only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
成就一番偉業(yè)的唯一途徑就是熱愛(ài)自己的事業(yè)。如果你還沒(méi)能找到讓自己熱愛(ài)的事業(yè)，繼續(xù)尋找，不要放棄。跟隨自己的心，總有一天你會(huì)找到的。
I've got it down to four words: "Do what you love." Seek out an occupation that gives you a sense of meaning, direction and satisfaction in life. Having a sense of purpose and striving towards goals gives life meaning, direction and satisfaction. It not only contributes to health and longevity, but also makes you feel better in difficult times. Do you jump out of bed on Monday mornings and look forward to the work week? If the answer is 'no', keep looking, you'll know when you find it.
“我把這段話濃縮為：“做我所愛(ài)”。去尋找一個(gè)能給你的生命帶來(lái)意義、價(jià)值和讓你感覺(jué)充實(shí)的事業(yè)。擁有使命感和目標(biāo)感才能給生命帶來(lái)意義、價(jià)值和充實(shí)。這不僅對(duì)你的健康和壽命有益處，而且即使在你處于困境的時(shí)候你也會(huì)感覺(jué)良好。在每周一的早上，你能不能利索的爬起來(lái)并且對(duì)工作日充滿期待？如果不能，那么你得重新去尋找。你會(huì)感覺(jué)得到你是不是真的找到了。
4. You know, we don't grow most of the food we eat. We wear clothes other people make. We speak a language that other people developed. We use a mathematics that other people evolved... I mean, we're constantly taking things. It's a wonderful, ecstatic feeling to create something that puts it back in the pool of human experience and knowledge.
并不是每個(gè)人都需要種植自己的糧食，也不是每個(gè)人都需要做自己穿的衣服，我們說(shuō)著別人發(fā)明的語(yǔ)言，使用別人發(fā)明的數(shù)學(xué)……我們一直在使用別人的成果。使用人類的已有經(jīng)驗(yàn)和知識(shí)來(lái)進(jìn)行發(fā)明創(chuàng)造是一件很了不起的事情?！?/FONT>
Live in a way that is ethically responsible. Try to make a difference in this world and contribute to the higher good. You'll find it gives more meaning to your life and it's a great antidote to boredom. There is always so much to be done. And talk to others about what you are doing. Don't preach or be self-righteous, or fanatical about it, that just puts people off, but at the same time, don't be shy about setting an example, and use opportunities that arise to let others know what you are doing.
帶著責(zé)任感生活，嘗試為這個(gè)世界帶來(lái)點(diǎn)有意義的事情，為更高尚的事情做點(diǎn)貢獻(xiàn)。這樣你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)生活更加有意義，生命不再枯燥。需要我們?nèi)プ龅氖虑楹芏唷８嬖V其 他人你的計(jì)劃，不要鼓吹，也不要自以為是，更不能盲目狂熱，那樣只會(huì)把人們嚇跑，當(dāng)然，你也不要害怕成為榜樣，要抓住出頭的機(jī)會(huì)讓人們知道你的所作所為。
5. There's a phrase in Buddhism, 'Beginner's mind.' It's wonderful to have a beginner's mind.
佛教中有一句話：初學(xué)者的心態(tài)；擁有初學(xué)者的心態(tài)是件了不起的事情。
It is the kind of mind that can see things as they are, which step by step and in a flash can realize the original nature of everything. Beginner's mind is Zen practice in action. It is the mind that is innocent of preconceptions and expectations, judgements and prejudices. Think of beginner's mind as the mind that faces life like a small child, full of curiosity and wonder and amazement.
不要迷惑于表象而要洞察事務(wù)的本質(zhì)，初學(xué)者的心態(tài)是行動(dòng)派的禪宗。所謂初學(xué)者的心態(tài)是指，不要無(wú)端猜測(cè)、不要期望、不要武斷也不要偏見(jiàn)。初學(xué)者的心態(tài)正如一個(gè)新生兒面對(duì)這個(gè)世界一樣，永遠(yuǎn)充滿好奇、求知欲、贊嘆。
