林書豪教會我們的10大人生道理

Feb20

1. Believe in yourself when no one else does. Lin’s only the 4th graduate from Harvard to make it to the NBA. He’s also one of only a handful of Asian-Americans to make it. He was sent by the Knicks to play for their D-League team 3 weeks ago in Erie, PA. He’d already been cut by two other NBA teams before joining the Knicks this year. You’ve got to believe in yourself, even when no one else does。

  即使沒人相信你也不能絕望。林書豪隻是第四位能夠進入NBA的哈佛學生。他也隻是一小撮能夠登陸NBA的亞裔美國人之一。在三個星期前,他還曾被尼克斯隊下放到NBDL球隊賓州伊利海鷹隊。在這個賽季加盟尼克斯隊之前,林書豪曾被兩支其他的NBA球隊裁掉。即使沒人相信你了,你也不能對自己絕望。

  

2. Seize the opportunity when it comes up. Lin got to start for the Knicks because they had to start him. They had too many injuries. Baron Davis was gone. The other point guards were out. Carmelo Anthony was injured. Amare Stoudemire had to leave the team because of a family death. Lin could have squandered the opportunity and we would have never have noticed. But he made the most of it. You never know when opportunities are going to arise in life. Often, they’re when you least expect them. Make the most of them. Don’t fritter them away。

  當機會來臨時要好好把握。尼克斯隊之所以讓林書豪打上首發,實屬無奈之舉,他們的傷病球員太多了。拜倫 戴維斯(Baron Davis)一直無法上場。其他控球後衛也不能出戰。卡梅羅·安東尼( Carmelo Anthony)受傷了。阿瑪雷 斯塔德邁爾(Amare Stoudemire)因為家人去世而離隊奔喪。如果林書豪浪費掉這個機會,他將不會得到我們的關注。但是他很好地利用了這個機會。在生活中,你從不知道機會何時會降臨。通常,在你最不期待的時候,機會就會出現。盡最大限度地利用這些機會,不要揮霍掉了。

  

3. Your family will always be there for you, so be there for them. It wasn’t until a few days ago that Lin got his contract guaranteed by the Knicks for the rest of the season. Before that, he could have been cut at any time. He had to sleep on his brother’s couch on the Lower East Side to get by. His family always believed in him and picked him up when he could have gotten down on himself. That made him continue to believe. If you want your family to believe in you like that, you’ve got to be there for them too when they need it。

3.你的家人將一直支持你,因此你不應讓他們失望。直到最近幾天,林書豪才獲得尼克斯隊的保障性合同,不用為餘下來的賽季而擔憂。在這之前,他隨時都可能被球隊裁掉。此前他隻能在紐約市下東區的哥哥家睡沙發。他的家人一直都相信他,在他快要放棄的時候也給予他支持。這使他堅守自己的信念。如果你希望家人像這樣支持你,你需要在適當的時候有所表現,不要讓他們失望。

  

4. Find the system that works for your style. Lin isn’t Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant. He’s not a pure scorer. He’s a passer and distributor – who can also score very well. It didn’t work for him in Golden State or Houston – where he was before landing at the Knicks. But Mike D’Antoni’s system at the Knicks has been perfect for him to show off his strengths. You’ve got to do your best to understand what your strengths are and then ensure that you’re in a system (a job or organization or industry) that is a good fit for those strengths. Otherwise, people overlook the talents you bring to the table。

尋找適合你風格的體製。林書豪不是邁克爾喬丹(Michael Jordan)或者科比 布萊恩特(Kobe Bryant)。他不是純正的得分手。他是傳球手和球權分配者——但也能很好的得分。在加盟尼克斯隊之前,他先後為金州勇士隊和休斯頓火箭隊效力,但是那裏不適合他。麥克 德安東尼(Mike D'Antoni)在尼克斯隊的體製非常適合他,能讓他展現自己的優點。你應該盡最大所能去了解自己的長處,之後確保你所處的體製(職位或者組織或者行業)非常適合這些長處。否則,你所展現的才華隻會被忽略。

  

5. Don’t overlook talent that might exist around you today on your team. You probably manage people at your own company today. Are you sure you don’t have a Jeremy Lin living among you now? How do you know that “Mike” couldn’t do amazing things if you gave him a new project to run with? How do you know “Sarah” isn’t the right person to take the open job in London that you’ve been talking over with your colleagues? We put people around us in boxes. He’s from Harvard. He’s Asian-American. Not sure he can play. How many assumptions have you made about talent around you? Don’t be like the General Managers in Golden State and Houston, and let talent slip through your fingers. With all their money, scouts, and testing, they didn’t have a clue what they had in their hands. Do you know what your people (or even yourself) is really capable of? Take off the blinders of assumptions you wear when you look at the world。

  不要忽視團隊裏可能存在的人才。你現在可能負責管理企業內部的人員。你確定自己身邊不存在林書豪這樣的人才?你怎麽知道若讓“馬某某”負責某個新項目他不會有優異的表現?對於你和同事一直談論的倫敦的空缺職位,你如何確定“沙某某”不是任職的合適人選?我們對身邊的人有各種成見。林書豪來自哈佛大學。他是美籍華人。他不一定能在NBA玩得轉。你對身邊的人才有多少各種各樣的假設?不要像金州或者休斯頓的球隊經理那樣,讓人才從手中溜走。盡管他們擁有資金、球探,還進行了試訓,但是他們並不清楚自己手上有什麽牌。你知道自己的手下(甚至你自己)真正擅長於什麽嗎?在觀察世界的時候,請摘下你的有色眼鏡。
