中英对照: 10 Lessons Jeremy Lin Can Teach Us（福布斯解析林书豪十点启示） Forbes: 10 Lessons Jeremy Lin Can Teach Us1. Believe in yourself when no one else does. Lins only the 4th graduatefrom Harvard to make it to the NBA. Hes also one of only a handful ofAsian-Americans to make it. He was sent by the Knicks to play for their D-League team 3 weeks ago in Erie, PA. Hed already been cut by two otherNBA teams before joining the Knicks this year. Youve got to believe inyourself, even when no one else does.2. Seize the opportunity when it comes up. Lin got to start for the Knicksbecause they had to start him. They had too many injuries. Baron Davis wasgone. The other point guards were out. Carmelo Anthony was injured.Amare Stoudemire had to leave the team because of a family death. Lin couldhave squandered the opportunity and we would have never have noticed. Buthe made the most of it. You never know when opportunities are going toarise in life. Often, theyre when you least expect them. Make the mostof them. Dont fritter them away.3. Your family will always be there for you, so be there for them. It wasnt until a few days ago that Lin got his contract guaranteed by the Knicksfor the rest of the season. Before that, he could have been cut at any time. He had to sleep on his brothers couch on the Lower East Side to get by. His family always believed in him and picked him up when he could havegotten down on himself. That made him continue to believe. If you wantyour family to believe in you like that, youve got to be there for themtoo when they need it.4. Find the system that works for your style. Lin isnt Michael Jordan orKobe Bryant. Hes not a pure scorer. Hes a passer and distributor who can also score very well. It didnt work for him in Golden State orHouston where he was before landing at the Knicks. But Mike DAntonissystem at the Knicks has been perfect for him to show off his strengths.Youve got to do your best to understand what your strengths are and thenensure that youre in a system (a job or organization or industry) that isa good fit for those strengths. Otherwise, people overlook the talents youbring to the table.5. Dont overlook talent that might exist around you today on your team.You probably manage people at your own company today. Are you sure you dont have a Jeremy Lin living among you now? How do you know that “Mike”couldnt do amazing things if you gave him a new project to run with? Howdo you know “Sarah” isnt the right person to take the open job in Londonthat youve been talking over with your colleagues? We put people aroundus in boxes. Hes from Harvard. Hes Asian-American. Not sure he canplay. How many assumptions have you made about talent around you? Dontbe like the General Managers in Golden State and Houston, and let talentslip through your fingers. With all their money, scouts, and testing, theydidnt have a clue what they had in their hands. Do you know what yourpeople (or even yourself) is really capable of? Take off the blinders ofassumptions you wear when you look at the world.6. People will love you for being an original, not trying to be someone else. Youve got to be you. You cant be some 2nd rate copy of Michael Jordan. There will never be another Michael Jordan. Just be Jeremy Lin yourself. Whatever that is. That doesnt mean you dont work hard itjust means you find what youre good at and do it. Fans will love you forbeing you, just like they love Jeremy Lin. Judy Garland said it best:Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate versionof somebody else.7. Stay humble. If you one day are lucky enough to have newspapers want toput you on the cover in order to sell more, dont let it get to your head.Its been remarkable watching how humble Lin remains through all thismedia frenzy. It makes his teammates and fans love him that much more.8. When you make others around you look good, they will love you forever. Ididnt know how good Tyson Chandler was, until I saw him playing withJeremy Lin. Lin has set Chandler up many times over the last week for easydunks because he drew the defense and then passed the ball. Thats partlywhy the Knicks are playing so well. They are all working harder to sharethe ball with others. And its beautiful to watch. And when the mediaswarms Lin, he tells them how good his teammates are. Do the same with yourpeers and reports.9. Never forget about the importance of luck or fate in life. Some peoplebelieve in God, some in destiny, some in luck. Whatever you believe in, begrateful for it.10. Work your butt off. Lin couldnt have seized his opportunity if he hadnt worked like crazy for years perfecting his skills. There are no shortcuts to hard work. Success is a by product of that. If youve got a TigerMom whos always pushed you to work hard, great. If not, let yourconscience be your own Tiger Mom! Get up early, stay up late. Nobody gaveLin any free passes. Why should you get any? You can only control what youcontrol and that means youve got to work harder than anyone else you know.I hope the Lin-sanity continues. And I hope we all can apply these lessonsto our own work and family life.Theres a great line from a New York Times article on Lin and his faithwhich is worth it for all of us to remember (from Romans 5:3-5):suffering produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does notdisappoint us.福布斯解析林书豪十点启示 相信命运把握住机会NBA林书豪风暴已经超越了篮球这个范围，成为了全世界讨论的焦点。今天全球著名的福布斯杂志就发表了一篇文章，分析了林书豪成功的过程中给我们带来的十点启示。第一， 永远相信自己，哪怕全世界都已放弃林书豪是哈弗毕业生中第三个进入NBA的球员，也是唯一一个亚裔球员。在三个星期前他还被尼克斯下放到发展联盟，也曾经被勇士和火箭两个NBA球队裁退。所以，不管在什么情况下，哪怕全世界都不再相信你，你也必须相信自己的能力。第二， 机会来临时必须抓住林书豪之所以能够首发，是因为尼克斯的现状造成的。尼克斯陷入了伤病潮，戴维斯无法上场，另外的一个组织后卫也是如此，安东尼受伤了，斯塔德迈尔回家奔丧。林书豪如果错失了这个机会，那么他依然会默默无闻。但是林书豪并没有这样做，反而是抓住机会实现了爆发。你永远不知道机会什么时候来临，而且很多时候都在你彻底失望的时候。所以，我们要抓住这些机会，别让他们溜掉了。第三， 家庭永远支持你，所以你也要支持他林书豪在不久之前才得到了尼克斯的保障性合同，在这之前他随时都有可能被裁掉。所以在这种情况下，林书豪必须睡在他哥哥家的客厅中。林书豪的家庭一直相信他，当他灰心的时候，他们鼓励支持他，帮助他重新树立信心。如果你想要你的家庭相信你的话，那么在他们需要的时候，你必须也做出同样的选择。第四， 找到适合自己的体系林书豪不是乔丹，也不是科比，他不是一个纯得分手。虽然他也可以得分，但是是一个传球人和球场分配者。事实证明，勇士和火箭的体系并不适合他的特点，然而德安东尼在尼克斯的体系却是为他量身打造的。所以你必须明白自己的优势在哪里，然后保证自己在一个最适合自己的体系中，能够发挥自己的最强点，否则人们会忽略你所谓的天赋。第五， 不要忽略周围人的能力很多人都在公司负责管理，那么你周围有林书豪那样的人吗？那个叫做麦克的家伙在得到机会的时候会不会也如此神奇？那个叫做萨拉的人是不是适合去管理你将要在伦敦的分公司？生活中的我们往往会给别人贴上标签，比如说林书豪的标签就是：亚洲人、华裔、打球能力未知。那么生活中你给别人进行了什么样的归类呢？不要学习勇士和火箭的总经理，让天才从你身边无声无息
