爱因斯坦:人生十训
10 Great Life Lessons from Albert Einstein
1.跟着你的好奇心走(Follow Your Curiosity)
我没有特殊才能,我只是无比好奇。
I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.
2.坚持是无价之宝(Perseverance is Priceless)
不是我聪明,而是我花更长时间思考问题。
It’s not that I’m so smart; it’s just that I stay with problems longer.
3.聚焦眼前(Focus on the Present)
任何男人如果能在驾驶时吻一个美女,其实就是没有给予那个吻应有的注意力。
Any man who can drive safely while kissing a pretty girl is simply not giving the kiss the attention it deserves.
4.想象力最强大(The Imagination is Powerful)
想象力是一切。它是预先看到将来生命中有吸引力的事情。想象力比知识重要。
Imagination is everything. It is the preview of life’s coming attractions. Imagination is more important than knowledge.
5.犯错(Make Mistakes)
一个不犯错的人也就不会去尝试新事物。
A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
6.活在当下(Live in the Moment)
我不思考未来──它很快就来。
I never think of the future - it comes soon enough.
7.创造价值(Create Value)
要努力做到不是成功,而是有价值。
Strive not to be a success, but rather to be of value.
8.别寄望不同结果(Don't Expect Different Results)
愚蠢:一而再地做同一件事,并寄望会有不同结果。
Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
9.知识源自经验(Knowledge Comes From Experience)
信息不是知识;知识的唯一来源是经验。
Information is not knowledge. The only source of knowledge is experience.
10.学习规则,然后玩得更好(Learn the Rules and Then Play Better)
你必须学习游戏规则。然后你必须玩得比别人更好。
You have to learn the rules of the game. And then you have to play better than anyone else.
