1.Give back
回報(bào)他人

“Give back—serve from a sense of gratitude.”

"對(duì)自己真實(shí)。愿意學(xué)習(xí)，謙虛取教。”

3“Inspirations ?come from reading.
靈感來(lái)自于閱讀

3.“Read outside of your chosen field, read broadly, read enthusiastically. Creativity is a necessary life skill and some inspirations will come from unexpected sources.”
“閱讀專業(yè)領(lǐng)域之外的書(shū)，博覽涉略，帶著熱情閱讀。創(chuàng)造力是生活中的一項(xiàng)必備技能，而靈感往往來(lái)自你意想不到的地方。”

?4.“Be generous to other people.”
“對(duì)他人慷慨?！?/strong>

5.Embrace ambiguity
擁抱不確定性

?“Don't be afraid to diverge from your 'plan'. Embrace ambiguity. The uncertain and what may appear high risk in relationships, jobs and life is usually very cool and worthwhile."
“別害怕自己的生活軌跡偏離你的‘計(jì)劃’。坦然接受那些模棱兩可的處境，無(wú)論是情感，事業(yè)還是生活，不確定的處境和看似危機(jī)的情況往往能成為出彩的經(jīng)歷，讓你受益良多?！?/div>

6. Challenge yourself
挑戰(zhàn)自我

7.Educated ≠ Smart
讀過(guò)書(shū)不等于有智慧

“Never confuse being educated with being smart.”
“永遠(yuǎn)不要把受過(guò)教育和有智慧兩者相混淆?！?/div>

8.Stop and Look back
停下來(lái)，總結(jié)一下

“As you move forward into the next stage of your life, do not forget to stop and look back to discover the meaning of where you have been. That will help you better understand who you are, where you may be heading, and how you can get there.”
“當(dāng)你邁向人生的新階段時(shí)，別忘了停下來(lái)、總結(jié)回顧一下，想想你所走過(guò)的旅程意義何在。這樣做能讓你更好的懂得你是誰(shuí)，你將去往何處，你如何才能到達(dá)那里?！?/div>

9.Learn to reframe rejection
重新理解別人的否定

“Learn to reframe rejection. Whether you’re working towards a?leadership position or building a company, people will frequently tell you no. Instead of seeing it as a shutdown, look at it as an opportunity to figure out why. Are you asking the wrong person? Have you not yet demonstrated you can handle the new?responsibility? Over time, ‘no’ becomes just another opportunity to wait, learn and try again.”
“學(xué)著重新理解別人對(duì)你的否定，無(wú)論是想升職躋身領(lǐng)導(dǎo)層，還是白手起家創(chuàng)業(yè)發(fā)展，在這個(gè)過(guò)程中人們會(huì)頻頻的對(duì)你表示否定。不要因此而放棄，而是要借此機(jī)會(huì)，想想人們?yōu)槭裁捶穸?。是不是你沒(méi)找到關(guān)鍵的人物？是不是你還沒(méi)有將自己駕馭新職位的能力充分展現(xiàn)出來(lái)？假以時(shí)日，“你不行”就會(huì)變成一個(gè)新機(jī)會(huì)，讓你靜候佳音，從中學(xué)習(xí)，再接再厲。”

10.Respect people over job titles
尊重人本身而不是職位頭銜

“Respect people over job titles. Everyone’s life has meaning.”
“尊重人本身，而不是他的職位頭銜。每個(gè)人的人生都是有意義的?！?/div>

11.Relationships bring more satisfaction
結(jié)交親友乃大樂(lè)

“You will get the more satisfaction about the relationships?you form than from the things you acquire.”
“個(gè)人成就之樂(lè)不如結(jié)交親友之樂(lè)?！?/div>

12.Tomorrow will be a blur
明天總是模糊不清的

“People always obsess over big decisions (e.g., which job/?position to accept), but really, tomorrow will always be a blur.?Plan with calmness, and then take the leap in the direction you think is best, knowing that there will rarely be a ‘right’ or?‘wrong’ but just a choice that leads to the next steps of life.”
“人們總是對(duì)重大的抉擇尤其重視（比如要接受哪份工作），然而事實(shí)上，未來(lái)往往是模糊不清的。帶著冷靜的態(tài)度計(jì)劃未來(lái)，然后選擇你覺(jué)得正確的方向，賣出大膽的一步，要懂得人生少有‘對(duì)’，‘錯(cuò)’之分，只有一個(gè)個(gè)不同的選擇，引導(dǎo)你走向人生的下一個(gè)階段。”

13.Pay close attention
留意當(dāng)下，這就是你的人生

“Pay close attention. This is your life.”
