The right way to think about your career is like compound interest; if you put in long hours at the start of your career and get a little bit better at what you do every day, you’re going to accomplish more than others. That builds up a compound effect that will extend throughout your entire career. Life is obviously unfair and you don’t know what will happen, but all else equal it becomes a major advantage. 思考你职业生涯的正确方式是复利思维;如果你在职业生涯的开始的时候花了很长时间,并且每天都不断进步,那么你将比其他人做得更好。这将产生一种复利效果,使你整个职业生涯都因此受益。生活显然是不公平的,你不知道会发生什么,但如果其他方面都相当,这会成为你的一个主要优势。 Enjoy your life when you’re young – it’s a true cliche that you only have your youth once – but work harder than most people think you should. I’ve come to believe that burnout isn’t so much associated with working too hard, but instead from things not working out. If you have momentum with whatever you’re working on, you’ll stay motivated and refreshed. 当你年轻时,享受你的生活 — 因为青春只有一次,这是陈词滥调 — 但别忘了要比别人想象的更努力工作。我现在相信,倦怠不是因为为工作太辛苦的原因,而是工作没有成果。如果你现在做的事情势头不错,你会保持动力,并且精力充沛。 Learn to say “yes” to an amazing opportunity even if you’re not 100% sure how to do it or if you’re ready—it’s possible to learn a lot very quickly. A mistake a lot of people make is to compare themselves to very successful people today, instead of the version of that person from ten years ago, which probably looks a lot more familiar. 面对一个伟大机会的时候,学会说“Yes”,即使你不是100%确定怎么做,或你是不是准备好了— 你可以在短时间内学会很多。许多人所犯的错误是将自己与今天非常成功的人进行比较,而不是和他们十年前的那个版本比较,那样看起来会更熟悉。 3. On Finding Your People (如何找到同类) You want to find your tribe – the types of people like you that you can imagine working with for the rest of your career. Within that, you want to find a small group of people whom you trust, and whose opinions you really respect. 你要找到你的部落 — 那些和你一样类型的人,你可以想象在剩下的职业生涯里与他们一起工作。在那里,你要找到一小群你信任的人,他们的意见,你真正尊重。 You should probably be willing to move. For whatever you’re interested in, there will be pockets of people around the world who are doing the best work, and it’s worth getting as close to them as possible. 你要愿意移动。不管你感兴趣什么,世界上总会有一群人正在做而且做的最好,你值得尽可能接近他们。 Help others for no reason at all. When you’re young, you tend to have a small network, and that limits your options. When you help people without any intention of ever getting benefit back, doors and new connections will open – this has been super important for me. 无理由的帮助别人。当你年轻时,你的个人网络比较小,开奖,这限制了你的选择。当你帮助人们而没有任何意图得到回报,门和新的连接将打开 — 这对我来说是非常非常重要的。 4. On Giving Up (关于放弃) When some people try something and it doesn’t work after a few weeks or months, they give up. I think that’s way too early to quit. 当一些人尝试一件事情的时候,如果几个星期或几个月搞不定,他们就会放弃。我认为这样的放弃太早了。 If people are saying that what you’re doing or what you’re making is bad, pay attention to that as feedback, but don’t let it get to you personally. It’s not a sign to give up, but instead to refine your approach. 如果人们说你做的事情不行的时候,你应该把它当做反馈意见,但不要受它的影响。这不是一个放弃的标志,你要做到的是改进你的方法。 (责任编辑:本港台直播) |
