【
Possible Version One
】
Don
’
t worry about failing.
别害怕失败
For a lot of people, the word
“
failure
”
carries with it a feeling of coming to an end, but for the
successful ones, who would always look
on the bright side with reason, failure is just a
beginning,
a seed of hope.
对于许多人来说,
“失败”这个词总让人有种穷途末路的挫败感;但对于那些成功 者,那些
善于用理性积极的态度面对问题的人来说,失败不过是个新的开始,是希望的种
子。
One leader at
work said to me once,
“
a mistake is just another way of doing things. If I have a
secret of leadership, it is to make as
many mistakes as quickly I can in order to
learn.
”
Then, he
recalled
Harry Truman
’
s famous saying:
“
Whenever I make a bad decision, I just go out and make
another one.
”
我单位的一位领导曾这样对我说:
“犯错误,只是做事的另一种方式而已。如我说我有什么
领导秘诀的话,
那就是尽快地多犯错误,以便尽早吸取教训。
”他还引用了哈里
.
杜鲁门的一
句名言:
“我每次做出糟糕的决策后,一定会尽快走出来,另 寻新策”
The lesson
here, understood by these optimists, is that
failure equals learning. While we
can
’
t say
that they
exactly welcome failure, they are uniform in their
ability to profit from it. They use the
healthy energy coming from failure to
reach higher goals. Almost every
“
false step
”
is regarded
as an opportunity and not as
the end of the world.
乐观的人认为:
p>
失败等于学习。
并不是说他们欢迎失败,
而是,
他们总 能从失败中获得教益。
他们从失败中汲取正面向上的力量,
去达到更高的 目标。
他们把
“每次挫败”
看做一次机遇,
而非世界末日。

【
Possible Version Two
】
Never
give up.
永不言败
Ray Lee, my high school football team
leader, is one of the most positive,
‘
up
’
people I
’
ve ever
seen in my life
and the person whom I admire deeply in my heart.
李雷,
我高中足球队的队长,是我见过最积极向上、永 不言败的人,也是我打从心里佩服的
人。
That was our final match in the regular
season. Our opponent was the defending champion.
At
the beginning of the match, our team
gained the upper hand, the first goal, and
everyone was so
excited. However, we
lost our strength and suffered a disastrous
decline ever since, while the
defending
champion had a sequence of three goals.
Incredibly, Ray
’
s response was full of
confidence:
“
Great! We are here to win. Now let
’
s focus on winning, rather than on not losing.
”
那是我们那个常规赛季的总决赛,
我们的对手是上届卫冕冠军。
刚开场那会儿,
我们队占着
上风,
首先进了一球,
每个人都兴奋极了。
但从那 开始,
我们逐渐失势,
随着对手连进三球,
我们的士气一
落千丈。不可思议的,雷却信心十足:
“好极了!我们是为了胜利而来的。现
在,全力以赴来打赢比赛,别一心想着怎么不输球。
”
That
’
s Ray. He always shows a spirit of working towards positive goals, pouring his energy into the
task, even the circumstances seemed a
dead end, and never looking behind and making
excuses
for outside forces.
那就是雷。
总是有股子劲儿,
向着目标积极奋进,
在艰难的逆境中亦全心投入,
从不向后看,
从不找借口。
We won the match.
我们最终赢得了比赛。
As people often say,
“
Attitude decides everything. A good attitude is a prerequisite leading us to
the final success.
人
言道:
“态度决定一切。
”积极的的态度,是我们成功的先决条件。
