像成功者一样思考:成功,并不遥远

1. Don’t make excuses
1. 不要找借口

Sometimes you might find yourself in the midst of an unfair situation. In such a situation, it’s easy to make excuses and most people do. But winners are different. They don’t make excuses or blame the situation. Instead, they focus on what they can do to get the most out of it.
有时候你会发现自己受到不公正待遇。在这种情况下，一般都会很容易找到借口而且大多数人也是这么做的。但是成功者不一样。他们不会寻找理由或责怪形势。相反，他们会集中精力在糟糕的环境下获得最好结果。

2. Be comfortable being uncomfortable
2. 对挑战随遇而安

Like it or not, growing in life often means moving out of your comfort zone. Why? Because in order to grow you need to expand your personal capacity and that requires you to take on new challenges. For that reason, you need to be comfortable being uncomfortable. Only then can you do the things that are necessary for your personal growth.
无论喜不喜欢，获得成长经常需要你走出舒适区。为什么呢？因为成长需要你拓宽潜在能力，那就意味着要承担新挑战。因为这样，你需要对挑战随遇而安，只有这样才能让你完成提升能力的事。

3. Have a strong desire to perform and excel
3. 尽全力表现，追求卓越

For the winners, simply meeting the standard is not enough. Their goal is exceptional performance. Whatever it is you are doing, strive to become the best that you can be.
对成功者来说，达到标准并不够。他们的目标是有出类拔萃的表现。不管你在做什么，都努力发挥到最好。

4. Focus; one step at a time
4. 专一；一次一步

To get things done, you need focus. But it’s difficult to do that if you look at the whole thing. So you should instead focus on just the current small step that you are in.
完成事情需要专心。但是当你纵观全局时往往很难做到这一点。所以你应该只关注手头上正在做的事情。

5. Don’t dwell on past mistakes
5. 不要沉浸在过去的错误中

Winners make mistakes just like other people, but what makes them different is their attitude toward mistakes. They don’t dwell on them nor let them hinder their actions. Instead, they learn their lessons, block the negative thoughts, and move on.
成功者也和其他人一样犯错误，但对待错误的态度和他们不同。他们不会迷失其中或让错误阻碍他们的行动。相反的是，他们从错误中学习，排除消极想法，并继续向前。
