在新書《抵達(dá)夢(mèng)想：導(dǎo)師之書》中，作者吉莉安·佐伊西格爾采訪了許多商業(yè)明星，探尋他們眼中成功的秘訣。以下是其中的一些建議。

Warren Buffett: CEO, Berkshire Hathaway

沃倫·巴菲特：伯克希爾-哈撒韋公司首席執(zhí)行官

"You could have a 300 horsepower motor and get 300 horsepower out of it or you can get a lot less. The people who I see function well are not the ones with the biggest motors, but the ones with the most efficient ones."

“一臺(tái)標(biāo)著300馬力的發(fā)動(dòng)機(jī)實(shí)際輸出的功率可能遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)小于300馬力。在我看來(lái)，能做好事情的人并不是‘馬力最大的’，而是效率最高的?！?/p>

Matthew Weiner: Mad Men creator

馬修·威納：《廣告狂人》制作人

"When someone rejects your work, register the fact that they don’t like it, but don’t listen to the reason why. People feel that they have to say something, and they often give a capricious justification to keep from hurting your feelings."

“別人否定你的作品時(shí)，記住他們不喜歡它這件事實(shí)，但別去聽理由。為了不傷害你的感情，人們常會(huì)覺得必須得說(shuō)點(diǎn)兒什么，他們給出的往往是模棱兩可的理由。”

Michael Bloomberg: CEO, Bloomberg LP

邁克爾·布隆伯格：彭博公司首席執(zhí)行官

"Use the words 'we' and 'us' when referring to your business. Never use 'I' and 'me'. It sounds egotistical."

“談到自己的工作時(shí)要說(shuō)‘我們’，千萬(wàn)不要說(shuō)‘我’。這會(huì)顯得很自大?！?/p>

Les Moonves: CEO, CBS

萊斯·穆維斯：哥倫比亞廣播公司首席執(zhí)行官

"When you have to say no, do it nicely. We get pitched about five hundred television shows a year and only put for new ones on the air... but we want those same people to come back to us when they have a hit show."

“如果必須拒絕他人，態(tài)度友善一點(diǎn)。每年我們收到各方推薦的電視節(jié)目近500部，但只播出那些有新意的……但我們希望回頭等這些人制作出熱門節(jié)目時(shí)，還愿意來(lái)找我們?！?/p>

Jim Koch: Founder, the Boston Beer Co.

吉姆·科赫：波士頓啤酒公司創(chuàng)始人

"The Boston Beer Co. has a simple hiring standard: Never hire someone unless they will raise the average."

“波士頓啤酒公司的招聘標(biāo)準(zhǔn)很簡(jiǎn)單：不能提高團(tuán)隊(duì)平均水平的人堅(jiān)決不請(qǐng)?！?/p>

Nitin Nohria: Harvard B-School Dean

尼廷·諾里亞：哈佛商學(xué)院院長(zhǎng)

"Understanding your strengths and weaknesses can take a long time and can even be a painful process, but it’s one of the most important things to do in life."

“了解自己的優(yōu)點(diǎn)和缺點(diǎn)可能需要很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間，過程甚至?xí)芡纯?，但這是人生中最重要的事之一。”

Marina Abramovi: Artist

瑪麗娜·阿布拉莫維奇：藝術(shù)家

"It’s important to put the idea of dying in your daily life because it helps you to appreciate your existence on this planet."

Gary Hirshberg: Co-founder, Stonyfield Farm

加里·赫什伯格：石原農(nóng)場(chǎng)聯(lián)合創(chuàng)始人

"Think on your own and question authority. Authority is a short-lived phenomenon."
