3. You Might Fail (a Lot)
你可能會失敗(很多次)
If you attempt to achieve an ambitious new goal, then it is possible that you will fall on your face while pursuing said goal. Welcome to reality. It’s time to change your thinking about failure.
如果你雄心萬丈想征服新目標(biāo),那你極可能在努力的過程中摔得鼻青臉腫。回到現(xiàn)實(shí),改變自己對失敗的看法吧。
It is not a big, bad thing that you should be frightened of. Failure is a learning opportunity and nothing more. If successful people quit pursuing their goal after failing the first time they tried something new, then there would be approximately zero successful people ever. There is no such thing as a “hole-in-one” in life. Do you want to know how many times I’ve failed? Over a hundred.
失敗并不是多么糟糕透頂?shù)拇笫?,你完全沒必要害怕。失敗只是一次學(xué)習(xí)的機(jī)會罷了。如果成功的人因剛開始嘗試新鮮事物遭遇挫折而放棄夢想,那他們很可能就一事無成,何談成功二字!生活中從來就沒有“一發(fā)即中” 這回事。你知道我失敗過多少次嗎?上百次。
The only reason I’ve managed to accomplish anything is because I am a firm believer in continuous improvement. If you fail in something, distance from the event for a day or two, because agonizing over the problem will not make it go away (and will make it a lot worse). Read a good book, catch up with some friends you haven’t seen in a long time, or go on a nature hike. You will be able to look at the issue with a fresh perspective. After you have done that, ask yourself: “Why didn’t this work out and how can I do better next time?”
如果說我確實(shí)有所成就的話,那也只是因為我堅信不斷嘗試就會成功。遇到挫折時,你可以暫時把問題放一放,一味糾結(jié)不僅無濟(jì)于事,有時反倒使情況更糟。先去讀一本好書、見見久未謀面的好友或去戶外騎游一番;再回頭看待問題,你或許會感到柳暗花明。這樣做后,別忘了多加反?。骸盀槭裁催@個方法會奏效?下次能不能做得更好呢?”
This process very well could repeat itself several times depending on the nature of your goal, but if you keep making a firm commitment to continuously improve yourself, you will develop so much that the only option left is success. Consistent hustle always wins.
看你定的是什么目標(biāo),這種方法可以被反復(fù)有效應(yīng)用。如果你堅定不移地持續(xù)提升自己,最后成功肯定非你莫屬。孜孜不倦向來無敵。
