Don’t aim to please—aim for respect
不要試圖討好他人，而要贏得他人的尊重
Being different is, to some extent, part of the story of every highly successful woman. Linda Hudson, the CEO of BAE for the past four years, and first woman head a major defense company, grew up very comfortable being unique. She always played with the boys, and was one of the few women in her engineering program in college. Her most conscientious confidence habit is one that makes many women uncomfortable. She long ago decided she would stop worrying about being liked. She turned her focus toward earning respect. She told us it makes tough decisions easier. She may hurt some feelings in the short run but in the long run, she is earning something valuable.
從某種程度上說，與眾不同，是每一個取得巨大成功的女性背后故事的一部分。琳達(dá)·哈德森，作為CEO執(zhí)掌BAE四年之久，她也是第一個主要軍火公司的女性掌門人，她的成長經(jīng)歷自然與眾不同。她總是和男孩子玩在一起，而且也是大學(xué)工程計劃中極少數(shù)的女性之一。關(guān)于自信，她有個奉行最徹底的習(xí)慣，然而這一習(xí)慣卻令許多女性感到不自在。她很久以前她就決定不再為自己是否討人喜歡而庸人自擾，而是去努力贏得他人的尊重。她告訴我們，這樣的想法使得一些原本困難的決定變得簡單。也許在短期來看她會傷害一些人的感情，但是從長遠(yuǎn)來看，她將得到更寶貴的東西。
