老爸教给我的18个人生信条(上)

7.Sometimes you just have to go for it. – Put your uncertainty and fears aside for a second and ask yourself this:  “If I try and I don’t get it right the first time, what will I have lost and what will I have gained?”  The answer is:  You will have lost nothing but a little bit of your time while gaining an important lesson that will help you get it right the second or third time.  People rarely get it right the first time.  In fact, usually the only people who ever get it right are those who continue going for it even when they’ve come up short numerous times before.
有时候就是要坚持到底。先把你的犹豫和畏惧放到一边，然后问自己：“如果我努力去做，但是在第一次恰好没有成功。那么，我将会失去什么，同时又会得到什么？”答案是：除了一点点的时间你其实毫无损失，但同时你却获得了一个重要的经验或者教训，这会助你在下一次或者再一次的努力中获得成功。很少有人一下子就能成功。实际上，在很多人看似轻松成功的背后，总有无数次的尝试和努力。

8.In order to get, you have to give. – Supporting, guiding and making contributions to other people is one of life’s greatest rewards.  Everything you do comes back around.
要想得到，必先付出。支持、引导以及奉献他人是人生中最大的嘉奖之一。你所做的事情都会有所回报的。
