輕松日記商務(wù)職場篇 第48期:成功不是靠運氣 要努力拼搏
Success is not gained through blind luck.
成功可不是靠運氣得來的。
blind luck不同于good luck“好運”，表示不知到底會是什么結(jié)果，完全憑運氣，即：“純粹的運氣，撞大運”的意思。因些，當(dāng)美國人說"Success is not gained through blind luck."時，他/她要表達的意思就是:"Success is not a matter of pure luck."、"Success doesn't come by luck only."、"The secret ofsuccess involves not only luck but also hard work."。
