Did you ever have a dream? I'm not talking about a dream you have when you sleep. I'm talking about a conscious dream where you would like to see a new future, a different choice of employment, and a business of you own. How many times have you wished that you could be living a different existence than the one you are currently experiencing?
你有過夢(mèng)嗎?我指的不是睡覺時(shí)做的那種夢(mèng)，而是當(dāng)你展望一個(gè)全新的未來、期待一種不同的就業(yè)選擇，以及希望擁有自己的事業(yè)時(shí)，所產(chǎn)生的那種有意識(shí)的夢(mèng)想。你曾多少次希望自己能夠生活在一種比現(xiàn)狀更好的不同的環(huán)境里呢?
Dreams. No doubt we've all had them from time to time in our lives. Did you fulfill your dream? If not, why not? Did you start on your way to fulfilling a dream only to be derailed by letting other life's events get in the way? Did you make some initial first steps only to find roadblocks in your way that convinced you to give up? Or, if you fulfilled some aspects of your dream, did you find that you had limited success, and, therefore gave in to a negative view that you weren't meant to succeed?
去夢(mèng)想吧!毫無疑問，在生活中，我們時(shí)常都會(huì)有夢(mèng)想。你實(shí)現(xiàn)過自己的夢(mèng)想嗎?如果沒有實(shí)現(xiàn)過，為什么呢?你是否曾在開始實(shí)現(xiàn)自己夢(mèng)想的時(shí)候，只因生活中其他事情的阻撓而半途而廢呢?你是否曾邁出了實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想的最初腳步，卻只因在前路上遇到障礙而放棄了夢(mèng)想呢?或者，你是否曾在已經(jīng)實(shí)現(xiàn)了部分夢(mèng)想的'情況下，卻因?yàn)榘l(fā)現(xiàn)自己只取得了有限的成就，從而產(chǎn)生消極想法，認(rèn)為自己不可能成功呢?
Several years ago, I had a dream about inventing a board game that would change my life's fortunes. Along with a partner, who also had a similar dream, those dreams were turned into goals that were translated to action steps. After many long hours and many revisions, a board game was developed. Then came issues of financing. Not to be defeated by this obstacle, a plan was developed and carried out that saw shares being offered, all sold to a group of supporters, and a real live company created. Then, came marketing strategies, T.V. appearances, newspaper articles, trade show attendance, weekend promotional appearances, magazine advertising, and spot radio commercials.
幾年前，我曾有過發(fā)明一種棋盤游戲的夢(mèng)想，那將能改變我一生的命運(yùn)。我一直與一個(gè)和我有同樣夢(mèng)想的伙伴合作，這個(gè)夢(mèng)想就是我們的目標(biāo)，而且我們已經(jīng)將其轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)閷?shí)際行動(dòng)。經(jīng)過漫長(zhǎng)的研究及無數(shù)次的修改之后，一種新的棋盤游成面世了。然后就是籌措資金的問題。要想戰(zhàn)勝這個(gè)困難，必須制訂一個(gè)能從中看到利潤(rùn)的計(jì)劃，尋找一個(gè)愿意投資合作的集團(tuán)，并創(chuàng)辦一個(gè)實(shí)體公司。然后就該制訂市場(chǎng)戰(zhàn)略了——電視宣傳、報(bào)紙介紹、貿(mào)易展覽、周末促銷、雜志廣告以及電臺(tái)廣告等。
It was an exciting time. The one time dream seemed to take off with sales starting to accumulate, a potential sale to a large and established game board company, and inroads to large chain stores. Then, it happened. Introduced to the board game market came one of the biggest his never seen before. In short, their sales blew us out of the water, our distributor failed to pay us, and the business, once dreamed of, came to a screeching halt.
那真是一個(gè)令人興奮的時(shí)刻。隨著銷售量開始累積、暢銷的可能性、棋盤游戲公司的建立，以及進(jìn)一步發(fā)展成為連鎖公司，這個(gè)昔日的夢(mèng)想正在成為現(xiàn)實(shí)。就在這時(shí)，不幸的事發(fā)生了。又有一種新的棋盤游戲進(jìn)軍市場(chǎng)，它取得了史無前例的銷售成績(jī)。簡(jiǎn)而言之，他們?cè)谑袌?chǎng)上把我們打得落花流水，我們的銷售商已經(jīng)沒有能力向我們付款;我們的生意和夢(mèng)想就這樣亙?nèi)欢埂?/p>
To make a long story short, the company was dissolved having dashed our dreams, and those of our shareholders. How devastating after all the hours of work, the hours of marketing, promotion, not to mention the loss of our own financial investment.
長(zhǎng)話短說，公司的解散使我們和我們的那些股東的夢(mèng)想都化為了泡影。耗費(fèi)無數(shù)精力和時(shí)間的研究、生產(chǎn)、銷售、宣傳都?xì)в谝磺遥鼊e提投入的資金的損失了。
Is that the end of the story? Well, it was for one of the game developers; the negative emotions, "it never was meant to be" thoughts. dominated any future dreams of a different life. This person returned to the daily grind of a nine to five job always cynical, always jealous of those who had succeeded.
這個(gè)故事就這樣結(jié)束了嗎?對(duì)于一個(gè)游戲研究者來說"永遠(yuǎn)也不能成功了"的消極思想的確能夠支配一個(gè)人對(duì)未來生活的夢(mèng)想。這個(gè)人很可能會(huì)回到日復(fù)一日的朝九晚五的工作之中，他會(huì)永遠(yuǎn)處于一種憤世嫉俗的情緒之中，會(huì)對(duì)那些功成名就的人充滿嫉妒。
But, did it mean being unsuccessful to me? I didn't succeed to the level I wanted or desired, but, to me, at the very least I lived my dream by turning it into a reality. If I had never turned my dream into goal8 and then to action, I would have always wondered -what if. Was it then a failure? No, It wasn't. Was it the flaming success I'd hoped for -no. But, there were valuable lessons to be learned. After all, how many successful business people, inventors, authers, artists, etc. had immediate success in their first attempt? Probably none. Failure is our greatest teacher as long as the experience is viewed as lessons, and those lessons are internalized to provide fruits for greater achievernents later.
然而，對(duì)我來說，它也意味著失敗嗎?我的確沒有達(dá)到我所渴望的成功高度，但對(duì)我來說，至少我曾使自己的夢(mèng)想變成了現(xiàn)實(shí)。如果我從來沒有把夢(mèng)想當(dāng)作目標(biāo)，并去采取行動(dòng)，那我就會(huì)一直在想——如果……會(huì)怎么樣。那么，這算是失敗嗎?不，并不是。那么，它是我所希望的那種驚人的成功嗎?——也不是;但我卻從中學(xué)到了非常有價(jià)值的教訓(xùn)。畢竟，有多少成功的商人、發(fā)明家、作家、藝術(shù)家等是在他們初次嘗試的時(shí)候就立即取得成功了呢?很可能一個(gè)都沒有。失敗其實(shí)是最好的老師，將為日后取得更大的成功打下了堅(jiān)實(shí)的基礎(chǔ)。
It may take a few more attempts, or many attempts but success is only achieved; once dreams are put into action, where failure becomes the launching pad for smarter choices, or better action plans in future endeavors. Will success come on the next adventure, or the next one after that, or will it take many more? Who is to say? The important point here is that success only comes by turning dreams into reality and realizing that obstacles3 are only stepping-stones to final success.
也許需要更多的嘗試，或者在多次嘗試之后才能取得一次成功，但一旦將夢(mèng)想轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)樾袆?dòng)，失敗就會(huì)成為更明智的選擇的起飛臺(tái)，或者成為未來的努力中更好的行動(dòng) 計(jì)劃。成功金在下一次，或再下一次，或更多次冒險(xiǎn)之后到來嗎?誰敢說不會(huì)呢?關(guān)鍵在于，只有將夢(mèng)想轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)閷?shí)際行動(dòng)，才能取得成功;并且知道障礙只是通往最終成功的跳板而已。
For those who are wondering about my own eventual success, I'll tell you this.
對(duì)于那些對(duì)我的最終成功感到好奇的人，我要說的就是這些。
After many attempts，many failures, many lessons, and many false starts, success arrived but only through believing in what I've said earlier. Learn valuable lessons from failure; turn dreams into action plans, and don't let a dream only be that -a dream!
在經(jīng)過無數(shù)次的嘗試、失敗、教訓(xùn)和錯(cuò)誤的開始之后，只有相信我在前面所說的，成功才會(huì)到來口要從失敗中吸取寶貴的經(jīng)驗(yàn)，將夢(mèng)想轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)閷?shí)際行動(dòng)，不要讓夢(mèng)想只是一個(gè)夢(mèng)想!
