You still have to do your part of the work whether it’s working out at the gym, building wealth, starting a new relationship or practicing your ski turns on the bunny hill. The bottom line is that there are no true shortcuts to real success.
你仍然需要做好分内之事——去健身房锻炼,累积财富、建立新的人际关系或在小斜坡上练习滑雪转弯。底线在于,真正的成功是没有捷径的。
Many of the goals we want to achieve have already been achieved by countless numbers of other people. Follow their examples and take the same type of steps they had to take in order to be successful. Each step is very much like a little success on its own and little successes do add up. Pay your dues to steadily develop towards success rather than take detours on shortcuts that can actually set you back.
我们想要实现的目标中,有很多都是其他人已经实现了的。如果想要成功,那就以那些人为榜样,采取同样的步骤吧。每一步都是一次小小的成功,而小成功就能汇集成大成功。请脚踏实地去争取成功,而不要选择实际上会拖后腿的弯路或捷径!
