To succeed you must have a vast amount of enduring patience.
想要成功,你一定要有出众的忍耐力。
What is patience? According to Barbara Johnson, it’s the ability to idle your motor when you feel like stripping your gears. Guy Kawasaki said it’s the art of concealing your impatience, while Titus Plautus concludes that it’s the best remedy for every trouble.
那么,什么是耐心呢?根据巴巴拉约翰逊的说法,这是一种类似像在拆掉了拍档之后,让自己的马达空转。Guy Kawasaki(美国硅谷的Garage(车库)技术风险投资公司创始人、董事局主席)说,这是一种艺术,隐藏你的冲动。而普劳特斯(拉丁喜剧作家)总结说,这是所有问题的良药。
I submit to you that patience is the missing link to your success…
我要告诉你的是,耐心正是你成功路上所缺少的一环。。。
So when things go wrong remember that the grass will grow again, yes it will take time, but in the words of Jean Jacques Rousseau, “Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet,” so don’t overreact, don’t over steer, be patient, let things settle, less you find your delay considerably longer than it would otherwise be.
当事情并不如你所想的那么顺利的时候,记住“野火烧不尽,春风吹又生”,是的,这是要画一些时间。但是卢梭曾说过“耐心有一种苦涩的味道,但是它结出的果实是如此甜蜜”所以不要太过焦急,不要妄自菲薄,给自己一些耐心,让事情解决。这也许比你所想象的更加快捷。
The scripture teaches us that in your patience you possess your soul, which is perhaps why Francis Bacon noted that whoever is out of patience is out of possession of their soul.
《圣经》教给我们,如果你拥有耐心,那么你就掌控自己的灵魂。这也许就是为什么培根一直告诉人们“一旦人失去了耐心,那么他就不再是他自己了”。
Elbert Hubbard said, “How many a man has thrown up his hands at a time when a little more effort, a little more patience would have achieved success.”
作家阿尔伯特哈伯德说过“有多少人在只还需要一点点努力,一些些耐心就能成功的时候放弃了。”
It’s true.
这是真的呢。
You were almost there, you had just about figured it out, and then your impatience got the better of you, which is perhaps why Solomon wrote, he that controls his anger is greater than the mighty.
你离成功就几步之遥了,你正要把它搞定,但这时候你的急躁击败了你,这也许就是为什么所罗门这样写道,控制他的怒火甚至比他的力量更加强大。

Anxiety causes the waters of life to rage; dooming your success, but patience stills the waters and allows you to navigate safely to your intended destination.

Don’t be like Tom Holt, Tom said, “Everything is out there if you know how to find it, and you have the patience. I don’t and haven’t, but that’s my problem.” Don’t just know that you need patience, have patience.
不要像汤姆霍尔特,他曾说“只要你知道如何去找它,所有的东西都就在那里,你有耐心。而我没有,也不曾有过。这就是我的问题。”不要仅仅只是嘴上说你需要耐心,更重要的是真正地拥有耐心。
I like to say, there’s nothing you can’t achieve if you have the three “P’s”: Purpose, Passion, and Patience. You have to have patience.
