中1. Don’t make excuses
不要找借口
Sometimes you might find yourself in the midst of an unfair situation. In such a situation, it’s easy to make excuses and most people do. But winners are different. They don’t make excuses or blame the situation. Instead, they focus on what they can do to get the most out of it.
有时候你会发现自己受到不公正待遇。在这种情况下,一般都会很容易找到借口而且大多数人也是这么做的。但是成功者不一样。他们不会寻找理由或责怪形势。相反,他们会集中精力在糟糕的环境下获得最好结果。
2. Be comfortable being uncomfortable
对挑战随遇而安
Like it or not, growing in life often means moving out of your comfort zone. Why? Because in order to grow you need to expand your personal capacity and that requires you to take on new challenges. For that reason, you need to be comfortable being uncomfortable. Only then can you do the things that are necessary for your personal growth.
无论喜不喜欢,获得成长经常需要你走出舒适区。为什么呢?因为成长需要你拓宽潜在能力,那就意味着要承担新挑战。因为这样,你需要对挑战随遇而安,只有这样才能让你完成提升能力的事。
3. Have a strong desire to perform and excel
尽全力表现,追求卓越
For the winners, simply meeting the standard is not enough. Their goal is exceptional performance. Whatever it is you are doing, strive to become the best that you can be.
对成功者来说,达到标准并不够。他们的目标是有出类拔萃的表现。不管你在做什么,都努力发挥到最好。
4. Focus; one step at a time
专一;一次一步
To get things done, you need focus. But it’s difficult to do that if you look at the whole thing. So you should instead focus on just the current small step that you are in.
完成事情需要专心。但是当你纵观全局时往往很难做到这一点。所以你应该只关注手头上正在做的事情。
