我喜歡Andy Frisella說(shuō)的,他說(shuō),去年新年第一天你說(shuō)要做的事情,你現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)做到了嗎?你的新年決心,你堅(jiān)持去做了嗎?或者,你只是說(shuō)說(shuō)而已?你只是跟你自己說(shuō),我會(huì)去做的?
Doing anything successful, doing anything important, is going to take discipline. There's always gonna be a reason to wait. There's always gonna be a busy schedule. There's always gonna be something unexpected that happens. It's always going to be that way.
要想取得任何成功,做成任何重要的事,都需要自律。你沒(méi)有等待的理由,太忙了不是借口,總有意料之外的事情發(fā)生,這就是生活。
You have to work through it. You have to prioritize your studying, and make it more important than everything else going on in your life. But a lot of you don't want it enough. It's easy to fall into loving the idea of something. And it's hard to fall into the habits of action, to actually achieve the grades you're aiming for.
你必須解決好這些事情。你必須把學(xué)習(xí)放在首位,讓它成為你生活中最重要的事情。但是,你們很多人,對(duì)學(xué)習(xí)的渴望并不夠強(qiáng)烈。我們做事情容易形成習(xí)慣,但是我們很難養(yǎng)成行動(dòng)的習(xí)慣,我們很難獲得自己的目標(biāo)成績(jī)。
It's not about after the vacation, or after the film, or after the YouTube video. It's about right now. People who succeed stick to the plan regardless. When you tell yourself you're going to study 4 hours tonight for your exam next week, you need to do it.
不要說(shuō),假期后再努力,看完這部電影再努力,看了這個(gè)YouTube視頻再努力。你,現(xiàn)在,就要開(kāi)始努力。那些成功的人,無(wú)論發(fā)生了什么事,他們都能堅(jiān)持執(zhí)行自己的計(jì)劃。當(dāng)你跟自己說(shuō),今晚你要為下周的考試學(xué)習(xí)4個(gè)小時(shí),你就要去做這件事。
You are all curious about what the secret is. Why certain people succeed when you don't succeed? Well, I'm gonna tell you why. Successful people, while you're whining and crying about how things are hard and why things aren't fair, guess what they're doing? They're doing the studying.
你們都很好奇,成功人士的秘訣是什么?為什么有些人能成功,而你卻不行?我來(lái)告訴你為什么。在你抱怨和哭訴事情太難、太不公平的時(shí)候,你猜猜成功人士在做什么?他們?cè)谂W(xué)習(xí)。
You have to commit to becoming better. You have to commit to being a person of action. You have to commit to being someone who doesn't just talk, but follows through. Become someone who does, instead of someone who just talks. If you really want it, it's yours to take.
你必須努力把自己變得更優(yōu)秀,你必須努力把自己變成一個(gè)行動(dòng)派,你必須讓自己說(shuō)到做到,而不是紙上談兵。成為一個(gè)說(shuō)做就做的人,而不是整天高談闊論的人。如果你很想要一個(gè)東西,那么你就能努力獲取它。
No one gives it to you or takes it away. It's yours, if you want it. It's a marathon, not a sprint. There's no fast fix to achieving extraordinary grades. There'll be days you'll be tired, even exhausted, but you continue regardless, because you don't judge it on the daily. You judge it in the long frame.
沒(méi)有人會(huì)把它送到你手里,沒(méi)有人會(huì)把它從你這里搶走。如果你想要它,它就是你的。這是一場(chǎng)馬拉松,而不是短跑。想要獲得出色的成績(jī),沒(méi)有任何捷徑。有時(shí)候,你會(huì)感到勞累,甚至筋疲力盡,但是你依然堅(jiān)持下去,因?yàn)槟悴皇蔷o盯著一天兩天的努力,而是有長(zhǎng)遠(yuǎn)的目光。
You keep your eyes on graduation. You know there's going to be ups and downs, but you know that it's all going to be worth it. You know that when you start getting results, it's going to be worth it. You look in the mirror, and you'll say, yeah I did this.
你的目標(biāo),就是順利畢業(yè)。你知道,你會(huì)經(jīng)歷起起落落,但是你也知道,這一切都是值得的。你知道,等到你開(kāi)始有收獲時(shí),就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)一切都是值得的。你看著鏡子里的自己,說(shuō),沒(méi)錯(cuò),我做到了!
You feel this overwhelming feeling, that you’re overworking the crowd. You're overworking everybody around you. You're studying more than them. You became something. You became somebody. And once you get there, that's when you know you've done enough.
你有一種很強(qiáng)烈的感覺(jué),你比別人更努力,你比周?chē)乃腥烁?,你比他們學(xué)得更多。你有所成就,你成為了優(yōu)秀的人。一旦你做到了,你就會(huì)知道,你付出的努力已經(jīng)足夠了。
But don't talk about it. Practice what you preach. And just do it. It won't happen overnight. It's gonna take months and months of work. Just don't quit. You keep fighting. You keep fighting no matter what. Because, trust me, on graduation day, you'll look back over the last few years and you'll realize it was worth it.
但是,不要說(shuō)說(shuō)而已,要為你的信仰付諸行動(dòng)。行動(dòng)吧!這不會(huì)一夜之間就實(shí)現(xiàn),而是需要長(zhǎng)時(shí)間的努力。不要放棄,保持奮斗。無(wú)論發(fā)生了什么,你都要堅(jiān)持奮斗。相信我,這是因?yàn)?,到你畢業(yè)那天,回憶起過(guò)去的這幾年,你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn),這一切都是值得的。
