人生成功第3课：Always will I seek the seed of triumph in every adversity
There is no better school than adversity. Every defeat, every heartbreak, every loss, contains its own seed, its own lesson on how to improve my performance next time. Never again will I
contribute to my downfall by refusing to face the truth and learn from my past mistakes. Because I know: gems cannot shine without polish, and I cannot perfect myself without hardship.
Now I know that there are no times in life when opportunity, the chance to be and do gathers so richly about my soul when it has to suffer cruel adversity. Then everything depends on whether I raise my head or lower it in seeking help. Whenever I am struck down, in the future, by any terrible defeat, I will inquire of myself, after the first pain has passed, how I can turn that adversity into good. What a great opportunity that moment may present……to take the bitter root I am holding and transform it into fragrant garden of flowers.
Always will I seek the seed of triumph in every adversity.
译文：
在困境中寻找成功的希望
逆境是一所最好的学校。每一次失败，每一次打击，每一次损失，都蕴育着成功的萌芽，都教会我在下一次有更出色的表现。我再也不会逃避现实，也不会拒绝从以往的错误中获取经验，我不再因此而促成自己的失败。因为我知道，宝玉不经磨砺就不能发光，没有，我也不能完善自我。
现在我知道，灵魂倍受煎熬的时刻，也正是生命中最多选择与机会的时刻。任何事情的成败取决于我在寻求帮助时是抬起头还是低下头。无论何时，当我被可怕的失败击倒，在最初的阵痛过去之后，我都要想方设法将苦难变成好事。伟大的机遇就在这一刻闪现－这苦涩的根必将迎来满园芬芳！
我将一直在困境中寻找成功的希望。
人生成功第4课：No one can make you feel inferior
I choose to feel good about myself. That way I am more open to learning. If people give me negative feedback or criticize something I do, I don’t interpret what they are saying as meaning that I am a “bad” person. The belief that I control my own self-esteem permits me to listen to and hear their feedback in a non-defensive way – looking to see if there is something I can learn.We have two choices every day. We can feel good about ourselves, or we can feel lousy about ourselves. Why would anyone choose the latter?
译文：
没有人可以使你感到自卑
我选择自我感觉良好，这样我能更加开放地学习。如果人们给我负面的回应或是批评我做的事情，我不会认为他们所说的就表明我是一个“差劲的”人。我坚信自尊由我掌控，这让我毫无戒心地去听取别人的反馈，想看看是否有我可以学习的东西。我们每天都有两种选择。我们可以感到自己很棒，也可以感到自己很差劲。难道有人会选择后者吗？ 人生成功第5课：Hold fast to dreams
We all have dreams. We all want to believe deep down in our souls that we have a special gift, that we can make a difference, that we can touch others in a special way, and that we can make the world a better place. At one time in our lives, we all had a vision for the quality of life that we desire and deserve. Yet, for many of us, those dreams have become so shrouded in the frustrations and routines of daily life that we no longer even make an effort to accomplish them. For far too many, the dream has dissipated – and with it, so has the will to shape our destinies. Many have lost that sense of certainty that creates the winner’s edge. What we should do is to restore the dreams and to make it real, to get each f us to remember and use the unlimited power that lies sleeping within us all.
译文：
紧紧抓住梦想 我们每个人都有梦想。我们每个人都希望能发自内心地相信自已有一种特殊的天赋，相信自己能发挥重要的作用，相信自己能以一种特殊的方式感动他人，相信自己能够把世界变得更加美好。 在一生中，我们都曾经对自己渴望并追求的生活品质抱有憧憬。然而，对我们大多数人来说，这些憧憬在日常生活的成规和挫败中已经变得如此渺茫，以到于我们甚至不再努力去实现它们。对太多人来说，梦想已经远离，随之远离的还有塑 造我们命运的意愿。很多人已经推动了坚定的信念，而正是坚定的信念为胜利者创造了优势。 我们所要做的就是重拴梦想，并实现梦想，让我们每个人都记住，并去运用深藏在自己身上的无限潜能。
人生成功第6课：Nothing can take the place of persistence
Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful individuals with talent. Genius will not; unrewarding genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. Perseverance does not always mean sticking to the same thing forever. It means giving full concentration and effort to whatever you are doing, right now! It means doing the tough things first and looking downstream for gratification and rewards. It means being happy in your work, but hungry for more knowledge and progress. It means making more calls, going more miles, pulling more weeds, getting up earlier in the day and always being on the lookout for a better way of doing what you’re doing. Persistence is success though trial and error.
译文：
毅力无法替代 世界上没有任何东西可以替代毅力。才干不可以，无所作为的能人十分普遍；天分不可以，碌碌无为的天才尽人皆知;教育不可以，受过良好教育的没落者更是随处可见。只要有毅力和决心，就是无所不能的。 毅力并不总是意味着永远坚持做同一件事。它意味着无论你做任何事情，你都要立刻全心投入，竭尽全力；它意味着先做艰苦的工作，再去期待随之而来的满足和回报。它意味着开心地工作，渴望更多的知识和进步。它意味 着多打几个电话，多夏装几里路，多除草，早起床，意味着总是寻求更好的方式去做你在做的事情。毅力就是经历考验和过失的成功。
人生成功第7课：I am nature's greatest miracle
Since the beginning of time never has there been another with my mind, my heart, my eyes, my ears, my hands, my hair, my mouth. I am the end product of thousands of years of evolution; therefore, I am better equipped in both mind and body than all the emperors and wise men who preceded me. I have unlimited potential. I am a unique creature.I am not on this earth by chance. I am here for a purpose and that purpose is to grow into a mountain, not to shrink to a grain of sand.Henceforth will I apply all my efforts to become the highest mountain of all and I will strain my potential until it cries for mercy.I will win, and I will become the greatest person, for I am unique.I am nature's greatest miracle.
译文：
我是世界上最伟大的奇迹
自从上帝创造了天地万物以来，没有一个人和我一样，我的头脑，我的心灵，我的眼睛，我的耳朵，我的头发，我的嘴都是与众不同的。 我是千万件来进化的终端产物，因此，我的头脑和身体都超过以往所有的帝王和智者。我有无尽的潜力。我是个独一无二的生命。 我不是偶然间来到这个世界上的。我是为着一个目的来的，这个目的就是成为一座高山，而不是变为一料细沙。 我将成功，我将成为最伟大的人，因为我是独一无二的。 我是世界上最伟大的奇迹。
人生成功第8课： Stop to smell the flowers
In the hustle and bustle of modern-day life, people seldom stop to enjoy the beauty of nature. Ask yourself how many times you have listened to the birds sing. And when was the last time you looked at the sparking stars twinkle in the sky? Time files and life is short. So don’t forget to stop to smell the flowers. In our eagerness to make a living, we often forget about our quality of life. Too often you hear people say, “I am too busy,” for this or that. What a shame! One day, when they do find time to stop to smell the flowers, it might be too late.
译文：
驻足片刻闻花香
在现代生活的忙忙碌碌中，人们很少会停下来欣赏自然的美。问问自己，你有多少次倾听过鸟儿的歌唱。你最近一次抬头仰望闪耀的星空又是在什么时候？ 时光飞逝，人生苦短。不要忘记驻足闻闻花香。我们在急于谋生的过程中，往往忽视了我们生活的品质。多少次，你听见人们为这为那说“我忙死了。”多可惜啊！有一天，当他们真的找到时间能够驻足片刻闻花香时，可能已经太迟了。
人生成功第９课：Join the smile and compliment club
When you smile at someone and they smile back, you automatically feel better. Even if they don’t smile back, you will feel better because you know the most destitute person in the world is the one without a smile. You immediately become richer by giving that person yours. The same goes for the compliment. When you sincerely compliment a person or extend him a courtesy, he is going to receive a direct benefit and like himself better. It is impossible for you to make someone feel better and no feel better yourself.
译文：
加入到微笑者和赞美者的行列来
当你对别人，别人也会对你报以，你自然会感觉很棒。即使他有对你报以，你也会感觉很棒，因为你认识到世界上最贫穷的人就是从不微笑的人，当你对那个人微笑，你立刻变得更加富有。赞美也是这个道理。当你真诚地毛病抑或恭维一个人时，他将立刻受益，更喜欢自己。当你让别人感觉更好时，你自己也会感觉更好。
人生成功第10课：Always will I bathe my days in the sea of enthusiasm
Every memorable act in the history of the world is a triumph of enthusiasm. Nothing great was ever achieved without it. Without enthusiasm I am doomed to a life of mediocrity but with it I can accomplish miracles. Some of us are enthusiastic at times and a few even retain their eagerness for a day or a week. All that is good but I must and I will form the habit of straining my enthusiasm indefinitely, honestly, and sincerely so that the success I enjoy today can be repeated tomorrow and
next week and next month. We first must make our habits and then, good or bad, they make us. Enthusiasm, the love for whatever it is I am doing at the moment, works in marvelous ways I need not even attempt to understand but I do know that it will give additional vitality to my muscles and my mind. Always will I bathe my days in the sea of enthusiasm.
译文:
我将永远沐浴在热情的海洋里
历史上任何伟大的成就都可以称为是热情的胜利。没有热情，不可能成就任何伟业。 没有热情，我注定要在平庸中度过一生；而有了热情，我将创造奇迹。一些人时不时有点热情，少数人能够保持一天或一周的热情。这些都很好，但我必须也必将养成这样的习惯：永远地，诚恳地，真诚地保持我的热情，这样我今天所享有的成功便能够在明天，下周及至下个月不
断地重复。首先我们必须养成自己的习惯，然后，无论习惯是好是坏，这些习惯塑造我们。热情，也就是我对自己现在正在做的任何事的热爱，起着不可思议的作用，我并不需要努力去开弄懂它，但我的确知道，它将给我的身体肌肉和头脑带来额外的活力。我将永远沐浴在热情的海洋里。
人生成功第11课：Allow yourself to be happy
An estimated 70 percent of us are clinically depressed at some time in our lives. Why are we so unhappy when we have so many opportunities nowadays?People try everything: money, sex career, marriage, divorce, alcohol, rock and roll and even drugs, but most of us only want one thing–happiness. Being happy is a natural part of the human condition; we just need to believe it and allow ourselves to feel it.Make this affirmation: I deserve to be happy. Say it, sing it, and shout it. Prioritize happiness; make it your number one thing.
译文：
让自己快乐 调查表明，我们当中70%的人在生活中时间有临床性的抑郁现象。 如今我们有这么多的机遇，为什么我们还这么不快乐呢？ 人们尝试各种东西：金钱，性，事业，婚姻，离婚，酒精，摇滚甚至毒品，但我们大多数人只是想要得到一样东西－快乐。 快乐是人的一种自然的身心状态；我们只要去相信快乐，让自己感受快乐。 要宣称：我应当得到快乐。说出来，唱出来，喊出来。 优先考虑快乐，让快乐成为你最重要的事情。 对你所拥有的一切抱以感激之情吧。
人生成功第12课：I have unparalleled imagination
Now I will get what I want by means of this magic power. If my fear is to make a speech, I will imagine myself fearless and with confidence in public. If I suffer from disease, I will imagine the healthy manner I used to be. If I feel poverty, I will imagine the wealth to come. Now I understand: the only limit of the human being is his imagination. The reason why I have not reached to the top is that I don’t know how to use my imagination. Now, I am proficient in this technique and will benefit from it. The best reward will be being successful and being happier. I have unparalleled imagination.
译文：
我拥有无与伦比的想象力
现在我将通过这种神奇的力量得到我想要的。如果我害怕发表演讲，我就想象自己在公众场合无所畏惧，充满信心；如果我在病魔的煎熬，我就想象我以前健康的样子；如果我感到贫穷，我就想象我将要富有。现在我明白了：人类惟一的限制就是想象力。我之所以没有成功，原因就在于我不知道如何使用我的想象力。现在，我精通这个技巧，我将从中受益。最大的回报将是成功和愈加快乐。
我拥有无与伦比的想象力。
