How To Succeed!
1.要有冒險精神
Get and stay out of your comfort zone.
I believe that not much happens of any significance when you're in our comfort zone. I hear people say, "But I'm concerned about security." My response to that is simple:"security is for cadavers."
2.永不言棄
Never give up.
almost nothing works the first time it's attempted. Just because what you're doing doesn't seem to be working, doesn't mean it won't work. It just means that it might not work the way you're doing it. If it was easy, everyone would be doing it, and you wouldn't have an opportunity."
3.堅持就是勝利
When you're ready to quit, you're closer than you think.
there's an old Chinese saying that I jsut love, and I believe it is so true. It goes like this:"The temptation to quit will be greatest just before you are about to succeed."
4.結果未必都是最遭
With regard to whatever worries you, not only accept the worst thing that could happen, but make it a point to quantify what the worst thing could be.
Very seldom will the worst consequence be anywhere near as bad as a cloud of 'undefined consequences.' My father would tell me early on, when I was struggling and losing my shirt trying to get Parsons Technology going, "Well, Robert, if it doesn't work, they can't eat you."
5.一心不可二用
Focus on what you want to have happen.
Remember that old saying,"As you think, so shall you be."
6.今日事今日畢
Take things a day at a time.
No matter how difficult your situation is, you can get through it if you don't look too far into the future and focus on the present moment. You can get through anything one day at a time.
7.戰鬥不止
Always be moving forward.
Never stop investing. Never stop improving. Never stop doing something new. The moment you stop improving your organization, it starts to die. Make it your goal to be better each and every day, in some small way. Remember the Japanese concept of Kaizen. Small daily improvements eventually result in huge advantages.
8.決策果斷
Be quick to decide.
Remember what General george S. Patton said:"A good plan violently executed today is far and away better than a perfect plan tomorrow."
9.事倍躬親,身體厲行
Measure everything of significance.
I swear this is true. Anything that is measured and watched improves.
10.遇事冷靜,迎刃而解
Anything that is not managed will deteriorate.
If you want to uncover problems you don't know about, take a few moments and look closely at the areas you haven't examined for a while. I guarantee you problems will be there.
11.知彼更須知己
Pay attention to your competitors, but pay more attention to what you're doing.
When you look at your competitors, remember that everything looks perfect at a distance. Even the planet Earth, if you get far enough into space, looks like a peaceful place.
12.勿被他人左右。
Never let anybody push you around.
In our society, with our laws and even playing field, you have just as much right to what you're doing as anyone else, provided that what you're doing is legal.
13.勿期待命運特別垂青於你
Never expect life to be fair.
Life isn't fair. You make your own breaks. You'll be doing good if the only meaning fair has to you is something that you pay when you get on a bus(i.e., fare).
14. 獨立自主,自力更生
Solve your own problems.
You'll find that by coming up with your own solutions, you'll develop a competitive edge. Masura Ibuka, the co-founder of Sony, said it best:" You never succeed in technology, business or anything by following the others." There's also an old Asian saying that I remind myself of frequently. It goes like this:" A wise man keeps his own counsel."
15. 輕裝上陣
Don't take yourself too seriously. Lighten up.
Often, at least half of what we accomplish is due to luck. None of us are in control as much as we like to think we are."
16. 笑對人生。
There's always a reason to smile. Find it.
After all, you're really lucky just to be alive. Life is short. More ad more, I agree with my little brother. He always reminds me:" We're not here for a long time; we're here for a good time."
