4. Speak softly when everyone else is shouting. 大家吵得声嘶力竭的时候,轻声细语保持实力。
When every thing's printed in bold red letters, a message written in small italics stands out. When everyone is clamoring for attention, you can't help but notice the quiet and the calm.
在通篇红色粗宋体的印刷作品里,用小隶手写的信息最抢眼不过了。当大家吵闹喧嚷,为了引人瞩目时,你无可奈何,反而留意到安静一隅。
Do what it takes to build a quiet brand of confidence and people will take notice. In the midst of all that noise, some peace and sensibility is precisely what people will be looking for.
自信满满而显得平静稳重,更容易引起关注。嘈杂中的平静,更让人向往。
5. Decide who you're going to be when everyone else is deciding what to do next. 大家都在决定下一步的时候,想想你应该和谁一起。
A whole lot of people are looking for instructions, a set of blue prints, for the seven steps to everything.
一个团队里当大部分人都在等待指令,囊括所有并列明ABCD的一套蓝图。
Have you looked at the self-help section of your local book store? Looks like everybody's got some secrets and they're selling them for 19.95.
去过你居住地书店的自己取阅柜吧?看起来每个人都得到一些秘密,代价只需要19.95美元。
Few, however, take the time to ask, “Who am I?” or “Who do I want to be?” Figure that out, and the doing comes natural. It's like you have an inner filter. You know what works and what mucks things up. You know what to let in and what to keep out. You know what to do and what not to do.
然而只有很少人静下来问自己,“我是谁?”或者“我想成为谁?”找到答案后,就会自然而然的去实现它。就像你有一个内置的过滤器。你会给它们分离出来,有效的和杂乱的,精华和糟粕,该做的和不该做的。
While others are looking for the secrets of success, take the time to define what success actually means to you. Achieving it will be less of a mystery.
当大家都在寻求成功的诀窍的时候,花点时间给自己定义成功于吾何意?获得成功就不会虚无缥缈。
6. Seek to build relationships when everyone else is seeking to build a fortune. 大家都在创造财富的时候,建立一些关系。
If you really want to feel rich, accept all forms of payment. When it comes to happiness, studies show that beyond a certain point, money's just added padding.
如果你真的只是想变得富有,只要接受各种付款就可以了。但是研究表明如果你想得到幸福,拥有财富这一点是远远不够的,钞票只是填充物。
Love is the real gold standard. Connection, interaction, contribution, and intimacy, believe it or not, are better than a three car garage and a big screen TV.
爱是真金无价。不管你信不信,经常联络,真心交流,无私奉献和亲密无间带给你的满足感,胜过拥有三个车库和一个大屏幕的电视。
While the others are counting their assets, be one to the people around you. You'll get a greater return on investment.
当其他人在数财产的时候,做一个和身边的人一起的人。你会得到更大的回报。
7. Focus on being purposeful while everyone else is focusing on being productive. 当大家为别人而努力时,你应该为自己而活。
It's great to be productive if your productivity has a purpose, but a lot of people are burning their way through to-do lists like it's an Olympic sport and they're going for the gold.
有目的的去做一件事是很棒的,但是很多人为了准备要多什么的清单而精疲力竭,就像是为了取得奥运会金牌一样。
“Look at all the things I got done!” they shout, “Now, what was the mission?” But if you've steadied your pace and followed your instincts, practiced the pieces and built that quiet brand of confidence, know precisely who you are and use that knowledge to be an asset to the people you meet, you'll know what your mission is.
“看我取得的成就!”他们嚷道,“接下来什么任务?”但是如果你坚定信念,跟随自己的想法,做好每个细节部分,树立坚强意志,知道自己是谁并用自己的知识成为你想做的人,你就会知道你的任务是什么。
Better than a list of things you've done, you'll have a list of reasons for why you do anything and you can use that to guide you.
清单上显示需要完成的任务,不如列明你做任何事情的原因,并指引你前进。
So, What Will It Be?
所以,会变得怎样呢?
Are you gonna zag, or are you gonna zig?
你要选择向左转,还是向右转?
