爱默生7篇必修成功之课
“A man is what he thinks about all day long.” Anyone who has successfully changed a bad habit knows that right thinking is the foundation for change. This person knows that to the degree their thinking has changed is to the degree their desires have changed. Desires are birth from thoughts. What are you thinking about? Whatever it is, it is creating your life. "你整日思考的，即是你所成为的。” 任何曾经成功戒除坏习惯的人都知道，正确的思维方式是改变的基石。思维改变的程度即是欲望改变的程度。欲望产生于思想。你在思考什么呢？不管是什么，思考都将创造你的生活。 What you ponder you become! Thoughts of success will produce success, and thoughts of failure will perpetuate failure. To change your life you must change your thinking. Thoughts are the root of all change. 如何思考决定你将成为什么样的人。想象成功即可产生成功；预想失败即可造成失败。改变生活须先改变思想。思想是所有改变发生的根基。 “It is one of the most beautiful compensations of this life that no man can sincerely try to help another without helping himself.” "生活最美好的补偿即是，助人如助己。" To help yourself you must help others. The quickest way to succeed is to genuinely help as many people as you can. Bill Gates has helped billions, which explains why he has billions. 为了帮助自己你须先帮助他人。最便捷的方法就是真诚地帮助尽可能多的人。比尔.盖茨帮助了几十亿人，这也是为什么他身家数亿的原因。 How many people are you helping? You will only be compensated in this lifetime for helping others. 你在帮助多少人？只有帮助他人才可得到补偿。
“An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory.” “一分的行动可比一万个理论。” It’s easy to sit around and theorize, but the reward is in the action. It’s imperative that you’re in action! Don’t just discuss your theories, test them, and test them today. 翘起二郎腿拍脑瓜子创造理论是在容易不过的事儿了，但理论只有通过行动才可得到回报。立即行动起来！不要再纸上谈兵了，实验它，而且今天就实验。 Action always trumps inaction, get in motion, have some failures, and it time, success will be yours. 行胜于言。行动起来，体验失败，假以时日，成功终将属于你。
“Build a better mousetrap and the world will beat a path to your door.” “放置一个更具吸引力的诱饵，世界的机遇将纷至沓来。” To succeed you must build something better. 要成功你需建立更好的事物。 You must first use your difference to perceive something better, and then you must use your existing resources to build it. If you build well, you will be rewarded. Emerson said, “Doing well is the result of doing good. That's what capitalism is all about.” 首先利用你的独特之处感知更好的事物的存在，之后利用已有的资源建立它。如果你做得出色，你将得到奖赏。爱默生说：“为善者诸事皆顺。这就是资本主义的真理。”
“It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.” 5. 良友为伴 “老友的好处之一就是你可与之耍疯扮痴。” A large part of success is having good friends. A good friend is someone who you can be yourself with. 有一大部分成功都归因于好的朋友。一个良友能让你轻松自在、如沐春风。
You don’t have to put on a show, and you don’t have to be smart for a good friend. In the words of Emerson, “you can afford to be stupid with them.” Recognize your good friends, mark them, they are a part of your success.
6. 提高标准 “Unless you try to do something beyond what you have already mastered, you will never grow.”If you’ve ever done any serious weight training you know that your muscles won’t grow if you keep on doing the same thing. They will max out! As in the gym, so it is in life. If you don’t stretch yourself, if you don’t get out of your comfort zone and do what you haven’t done before, you will never grow. So commit to raise the bar today, stretch your horizons, and you will stretch your life. “若不超越你现有的能力进行尝试，你将停滞不前。" 如果你明知之前所做的任何体重训练都无助于锻炼肌肉却依然不思改变， 你最终将长满赘肉！健身房如此，生活同样如此。如果你不拓展你自己，如果不走出舒适的温房尝试从未做过的事，你永远不会成长。从今天开始着力于抬高标准，拓展视野，你的生命广度也将得到提升。
“The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn.” “大林成于小木。” It’s okay to start small. What’s small today will one day be enormous, if you stay consistent. Don’t be concerned with your current size; be concerned with the direction that you’re traveling in. If you’re going in the right direction, you will eventually get to your goal. You will eventually become, what you were destined to become. At last your greatness will be revealed. 从小做起。如果持之以恒，今日之小将成明日之大。不要在乎眼前的大小，关注你行走的方向。如果方向正确，总有一日会达成成功。你将成为你所决心成为的人。你的伟大将会最终显现。 |
