Leaders relentlessly upgrade their team, using every encounter as an opportunity to evaluate,coach and build self-confidence., You have to evaluate- making sure the right people are in theright jobs, supportingand advancing those who are, and moving out those who are not., You have to coach – guiding, critiquing, and helping people to improve theirperformance in every way., And finally, you have to build self-confidence – pouring out encouragement, caringand recognition. Self-confidence energizes, and it gives your people the courage tostretch, take risks, and achieve beyond their dreams. It is the fuel of winning teams.2. Leaders make sure people not only see the vision, they live and breathe it., Say it in your sleep – communicate constantly and reinforce with reward3. Leaders get into everyone’s skin, exuding positive energy and optimism., Leaders mood is catching – fight gravitational pull ofnegativism – care about howyour people are doing and how they are faring even in tough times4. Leaders establish trust with candor, transparency and credit., transparency - free from pretense or deceit : FRANK ; characterized by visibilityor accessibility of information especially concerning business practices, you weren’t given a crown or parking space, but a responsibility to bring outthe best in others5. Leaders have the courage to make unpopular decisions and gut calls.6. Leaders probe and push with a curiosity that borders on skepticism, making sure theirquestions are answered with action., Look like the dumbest person in the room - MRI with wider bore –Hitachi beat GEto it7. Leaders inspire risk taking and learning by setting the example., Humorous and lighthearted about mistakes help people understand mistakes aren’tfatal8. Leaders celebrate., Recognize teams achievements – makes people feel like winners and creates anatmosphere of recognition and positive energyBest leaders care passionately about their people – about their growth and success. They themselvesare comfortable in their own skin. They’re real, filled with candor and integrity, optimism andhumanity. Both born and made.Chapter 6 Hiring – What Winners Are Made OfHiring good people is hard, hiring great people is brutal, yet nothing matters more in winning than getting the right people on the field!Acid Tests, Integrity- tells the truth and keeps their word, takes responsibility for past actions; How testfor integrity: rely on reputation and reference checks; Does individual openly admitmistakes?, Intelligence – strong dose of intellectual curiosity, breadth of knowledge to work with orlead other smart people; education is not the only piece, Maturity – handle stress and setbacks; enjoy success with equal parts joy and humility;confident but not arrogant4 E’s and a P for Hiring, Positive Energy - enthusiasm, Energize Others -, Edge – stop assessing and make a tough call – no wishy-washy or take a look in a month, Execute – realized later how important execute was – get over the finish line – Personknows how to put decisions into action and push them forward to completion throughresistance, chaos, or unexpected obstacles., Passion – heartfelt, deep, and authentic excitement about work –passionate abouteverythingHiring for the Top4 more highly developed characteristics that really matter, Authenticity – self confident and has conviction, Can see around corners- anticipate the radically unexpected, Strong penchant to surround themselves with people better and smarter than themselves, Heavy-duty resilience – learn from mistakes, regroup and go again Hiring FAQs6 frequently asked questions about hiring, How do you actually interview somebody for a job?o Don’t rely on one meeting and interview with different people.

Elevate HR to a position of power and primacy in the organization, and make sure HRpeople have the special qualities to help managers build leaders and careers. Best HR typesare pastors and parents in the same package., If you manage a baseball team, would you listen more closely to the team accountant orthe director of player personnel?, Why is HR viewed as unequal? HR doesn’t produce hard numbers, often pushed intobenefits, vacations, and happiness activities and becomes twisted up in palace intrigue., HR should listen to people vent, broker internal differences and help managers developleaders and build careers.2. Use rigorous, nonbureaucratic evaluation system, monitored for integrity with the sameintensity as Sarbanes-Oxley Act Compliance., Sarbanes-Oxley Act provided credibility in financial reporting , Need to give candid, consistent feedback through a system that is loaded with integrityo Is clear and simple – 2 pages or lesso Measures people on relevant, agreed upon criteria that relates directly to anindividual’s performance.o Ensures managers evaluate their people at least once a year, preferably twice, informal face-to-face sessions.o Includes a professional development component.3. Create effective mechanisms to motivate and retain. (money, recognition and training), People need to get differentiated rewards and recognition to be motivated. Companiesneed to deliver both., Motivate through training-good people want to learn more4. Face straight into charged relationships., Union –don’t meet only at negotiating table – all you have is integrity-your word, Stars- top 20% - stroking can backfire- when become arrogant or out of control Star’sboss (HR supported) has to call the person in to have a candid conversation. If Starleaves replace within 8 hours. Immediate reaction sends the message to the organizationthat no one is indispensable., Sliders – shows up and goes through the motions- need to reenergize – get them back inthe game or the game is over, Disrupters – cause trouble – usually have good performance. First give them toughevaluations, name bad behavior and demand it change. Poison.5. Fight gravity, and instead of taking the middle 70 percent for granted, treat them like theheart and soul of the organization, Often salvaging sliders or disrupters – Mistake. That 70% could shine with care andattention. Differentiated group that has its own top 20, middle and bottom 10. Recognizethose performance variations. The middle 70 is the heart and soul of any company.6. Design the org chart to be as flat as possible, with blindingly clear reporting relationshipsand responsibilities., Telephone game – every time a piece of info travels through another person it changes.Companies are not buildings, machines or technologies. They are people. Besides managing them, what work matters more?Chapter 8 Parting Ways – Letting Go is Hard to Do1. Firing for integrity violations – stealing, lying, cheating, no brainers – make sure organization knows why2. Layoffs due to economic downturns, Every employee, not just the senior people, should know how a company is doing.3. Firings for non performance, The Three Big Mistakes of Firingo Moving Too Fast – people question management – no warning –don’t trust bosso Not Using Enough Candor –friendly employee that doesn’t perform o Taking Too Long – awkwardness in officeHow Can You get it Right?1. No Surprises – use rigorous evaluation system with its regular formal and informalreviews – If people know where they stand, in fact, a firing actually never happens.Instead, when things are not working out, eventually there is a mutual understanding thatit’s time to part ways.2. Minimize Humiliation –days that follow don’t let person feel as if he’s in a leper colony.Build self-confidence – there is a job out there for them – soft landingChapter 9 Change – Mountains Do MoveChange is an absolutely critical part of business.How do I get everyone to change? Are you the only one who sees the need for change? If you are and you don’t have some authority, make your case and if you don’t get anywhere, learn to live with the situation or get out.1. Attach every change initiative to a clear purpose or goal., Communicate a sound rationale for every change, Might not have all the info to make your case, but need to talk about what you do knowand what you fear.2. Hire and promote only true believers and get-on-with-it types., Change agents – ask questions, push people hard3. Ferret out and get rid of resisters, even if their performance is satisfactory., Lower morale of the people who support change4. Look at car wrecks., Look at bolder, scarier, more unpredictable events and make most of opportunities;someone else’s mi sfortuneChapter 10 Crisis Management – From Oh-God-No to Yes-We’re-Fine1. Assume the problem is worse than it appears., Dig into investigation as if guilty2. Assume there are not secrets in the world and everyone will find out., Telephone game again - example Tylenol crisis3. Assume you and your organization’s handling of the crisis will be portrayed in the worstpossible light., Stand up and define your position4. Assume there will be changes in processes and people.

成功的路上没有捷径图表类英语作文
成功的路上没有捷径图表类英语作文全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1There Are No Shortcuts to SuccessHey there, friends! Have you ever felt like you just want to be successful without having to put in a lot of hard work? I used to think that way too, until I learned an important life lesson - there are no shortcuts to success! It's a bummer, I know, but stick with me and I'll explain why.Success is kind of like a really tall mountain that you have to climb. It looks super cool from down below - you can see the snow-capped peak way up high and you're like "Wow, I want to get up there!" But then you realize that actually getting to the top is going to take a whole lot of effort. There's no magic elevator or helicopter that can zip you straight up. Nope, you've got to put on your hiking boots and start trekking up that mountain one step at a time.Some people look for shortcuts though. They see that huge mountain and they're like "Ugh, that looks way too hard. There has to be an easier way." So they try to find a quicker route,maybe going off the main trail and bushwhacking straight up a really steep slope. But nine times out of ten, that "shortcut" just leads to them getting stuck in thick bushes, running out of water, or having to turn back. They end up wasting a bunch of time and energy without actually making any progress.Meanwhile, the people taking the long way and following the proper hiking trail are steadily making their way upwards. Sure, their path has a lot of twists and turns, and they have to take breaks to eat snacks and recharge. But eventually, those determined hikers reach that glorious peak while the "shortcut" people are still stuck at the bottom.Life is kind of like that too. We all have dreams and goals we want to achieve - getting good grades, becoming a pro athlete, being a famous musician or artist, you name it. But simply wanting that success isn't enough. You have to put in the hard work, day after day, to turn those wishes into reality. There's no magic shortcut or cheat code.For example, say you want to get straight A's in school. You can't just wake up one morning and suddenly be a genius. It takes studying hard, paying attention in class, doing all your homework, asking questions when you're confused, and not giving up when things get difficult. Sure, it would be awesome ifthere was a "Get A's With No Effort" shortcut. But that's not how it works! Successful students put in long hours practicing math concepts, writing and re-writing essays, and drilling information into their brains.Or let's say your big dream is to become a professional basketball player. You can't just buy a pair of expensive sneakers and instantly be the next Michael Jordan or LeBron James. Those superstar ballers spent countless hours dribbling, shooting hoops, running drills, and playing in game after game from when they were little kids. They got coaching, they watched footage of the pros, they worked on their weaknesses over and over. Year after year of insanely hard work and dedication is what allowed them to develop their out-of-this-world skills.Anything worthwhile in life takes perseverance and determination. Musicians have to practice their instruments constantly to get good enough for concerts and recordings. Doctors have to go through decade of intense studying and training before they can treat patients. Entrepreneurs often have failure after failure before finally creating a successful business. There's just no way around putting in that time and effort.I get that it's frustrating though. When you're a kid, you see adults who are successful and you think "I wish I could just skipahead to being that awesome." But the truth is, every superstar, every millionaire, every person at the top of their field had to start at the very bottom and work their way up step-by-step. They followed their passion, sure, but they also pushed through obstacles, made sacrifices, and refused to take shortcuts that would undermine their long-term goals.So if you ever feel discouraged or tempted to look for an "easy way out", just remember - that path doesn't lead anywhere good. It's better to accept that success is hard and settle in for the long climb. Keep putting one foot in front of the other, and don't get demoralized by how far you still have to go. Those baby steps will eventually get you篇2There Are No Shortcuts to SuccessHave you ever heard the saying, "Rome wasn't built in a day"? It means that great things take time and effort to achieve. Success doesn't happen overnight; it's a journey filled with hard work, perseverance, and dedication. There are no shortcuts to success, my friends, and anyone who tells you otherwise is probably trying to sell you something.Let me tell you a story about two friends, Sam and Alex. They were both in the same class, and they both loved playing basketball. Sam was a natural talent; he could dribble, shoot, and pass like a pro. Alex, on the other hand, struggled with the basics. But he had a dream – he wanted to be the best basketball player in the school.One day, a man approached Alex and promised him a secret shortcut to becoming a basketball star. All he had to do was buy a special pair of shoes that would make him jump higher, run faster, and shoot better. Alex was tempted, but Sam warned him that there were no shortcuts to success in basketball.Alex ignored Sam's advice and bought the special shoes. At first, he was excited because he could dunk the ball and score more points. But soon, he realized that the shoes were just a gimmick. His skills didn't improve, and he couldn't keep up with the other players who had worked hard to develop their abilities.Meanwhile, Sam spent countless hours practicing his dribbling, shooting, and passing. He watched videos of professional players, studied their techniques, and worked on improving his weaknesses. It wasn't easy, and there were times when he felt like giving up, but he persevered.As the school year went on, Sam's hard work paid off. He became the captain of the basketball team, and his skills were admired by everyone. Alex, on the other hand, was benched most of the time because he relied too much on the special shoes and didn't put in the effort to truly improve.The moral of the story is simple: there are no shortcuts to success. Whether you want to be a great basketball player, a brilliant student, or a successful businessperson, you have to work hard and be patient. Success is like climbing a tall mountain – it's a challenging journey, but the view from the top is worth it.Think about some of the most successful people in the world. Did they achieve their goals overnight? Of course not! They worked tirelessly, faced countless obstacles, and never gave up on their dreams.Take, for example, J.K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series. Before becoming a world-renowned writer, she was a struggling single mother living on welfare. She faced rejection after rejection from publishers, but she never lost hope. She kept writing, polishing her manuscript, and believing in her story. Finally, after years of perseverance, her first book was published, and the rest is history.Or consider Michael Jordan, one of the greatest basketball players of all time. He was cut from his high school basketball team because he wasn't tall enough. But instead of giving up, he worked harder than ever, practicing for hours every day. His dedication and hard work eventually paid off, and he became a legend in the sport.These examples show us that success is a journey, not a destination. It's a path filled with challenges, setbacks, and obstacles, but those who keep pushing forward and never give up are the ones who ultimately achieve their goals.Now, I know what you're thinking: "But hard work is, well, hard!" And you're absolutely right. It's not easy to put in the effort, stay motivated, and keep going when things get tough. But that's what separates those who succeed from those who don't.Think about it this way: if there were shortcuts to success, wouldn't everyone be successful? The fact is, success requires dedication, discipline, and a willingness to work harder than everyone else. It's a long-term commitment, not a quick fix.So, the next time someone promises you a shortcut to success, whether it's a get-rich-quick scheme, a miracleweight-loss pill, or a cheat code for your favorite video game,remember the lessons we've learned today. True success comes from hard work, perseverance, and a willingness to stay the course, no matter how challenging it may be.Embrace the journey, my friends. Celebrate the small victories along the way, and never lose sight of your goals. Success may not come easy, but when you finally reach the summit, the view will be all the more rewarding because you earned it through your own hard work and determination.Remember, there are no shortcuts to success, but with dedication and perseverance, anything is possible. So, keep pushing forward, keep learning, and keep growing. The path may be long and winding, but the rewards at the end will be worth every step.篇3There Are No Shortcuts to SuccessHey there, friends! Today, I want to talk to you about something really important. It's a lesson that I've learned, and I think it's something we all need to understand as we grow up.Have you ever heard the phrase "There are no shortcuts to success"? It's a saying that means you can't just take an easy wayout and expect to achieve great things. Instead, you have to work hard, be patient, and put in a lot of effort if you want to be successful.Let me give you an example. Let's say you want to be a really good basketball player. You can't just wake up one day and be amazing at it. You have to practice, practice, and practice some more. You have to learn the rules, work on your dribbling, shooting, and passing skills, and play lots of games. It takes time, dedication, and hard work to become a great basketball player.Or maybe you want to be a scientist and make amazing discoveries. Well, you can't just snap your fingers and suddenly know everything about science. You have to go to school, study hard, read lots of books, do experiments, and learn from your mistakes. It's a long process, but the more you put into it, the more you'll get out of it.You see, success doesn't happen overnight. It's like building a tall tower with blocks. You can't just put one block on top of another and expect it to stand tall. You have to carefully stack the blocks one by one, making sure they're stable and secure. If you try to rush or take shortcuts, the whole thing will come crashing down.Now, I know what you're thinking: "But Timmy gets good grades without even trying!" or "Sarah is already a great artist, and she's only eight years old!" Well, let me tell you a secret: those people aren't taking shortcuts either. They're just working hard in their own way.Maybe Timmy is really good at paying attention in class and asking questions when he doesn't understand something. Maybe Sarah has been practicing drawing and painting since she was tiny, and her parents have encouraged her talent from the beginning.The point is, they're still putting in effort, even if it doesn't look like it from the outside. Success always requires hard work, no matter how easy someone makes it look.I know it can be tempting to look for shortcuts, especially when something seems really hard or takes a long time. But trust me, those shortcuts never lead to real, lasting success. They might give you a quick boost, but they won't help you truly master a skill or achieve your dreams.Instead of looking for shortcuts, try to focus on the journey itself. Enjoy the process of learning and growing. Celebrate the small victories along the way, and don't get discouraged bysetbacks. Remember, every mistake is an opportunity to learn and improve.And most importantly, don't compare yourself to others. Everyone has their own path to success, and it's not a race. As long as you're putting in your best effort and staying dedicated, you're on the right track.So, my friends, let's make a promise to each other. Let's vow to work hard, be patient, and never give up on our dreams. Let's embrace the challenges and obstacles that come our way, knowing that they're just part of the journey.Because at the end of the day, the sweetest victories are the ones we've truly earned through our own hard work and perseverance. And when we finally reach our goals, we'll be able to look back with pride, knowing that we didn't take any shortcuts.Who's with me? Let's make a pact to always remember: There are no shortcuts to success!篇4There are No Shortcuts to SuccessDo you ever wish you could just snap your fingers and be successful? Like you could skip all the hard work and struggle and just be at the finish line already? Well, I used to think that way too until I learned an important lesson - there are no shortcuts to success.Let me tell you a story about my friend Jake. Jake was really good at video games. Like, scary good. He could beat any level, unlock all the secret areas, you name it. Jake starting thinking that since he was so talented at gaming, everything else in life would be just as easy.Our school was having a big science fair and the prize for the winner was a brand new games console that Jake really wanted. Jake figured "How hard can a science project be? I'll just whip something up at the last minute and win easily." The night before the fair, Jake threw together a super basic baking soda and vinegar volcano. It looked pretty lame compared to the other kids' projects but Jake thought it would be enough to win.When the judges came around, they weren't impressed at all by Jake's half-hearted effort. They could tell he rushed it and didn't put in much work. Needless to say, Jake didn't win any prize that year. He was really disappointed and embarrassed. That's when Jake realized that just being naturally talented isn'tenough - you also have to work really hard if you want to achieve something great.After that, Jake started putting a lot more effort into his schoolwork instead of coasting by on his abilities. He studied hard, did all his homework, and paid attention in class. Jake's grades improved a篇5No Shortcuts to SuccessHi there! I'm Sammy, and today I want to talk to you about something really important – success. We all want to be successful, don't we? Whether it's getting good grades, winning a championship, or becoming a famous author or scientist when we grow up. But you know what? Becoming truly successful is not easy at all. In fact, there are no shortcuts on the road to success!I've already learned this lesson, even though I'm just a kid. Let me tell you about my experience trying to take a shortcut, and why it didn't work out so well. Last year, I was really struggling in my math class. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't seem to understand fractions and decimals. I wouldstudy and study, but I kept getting bad grades on the tests and quizzes. I was really frustrated!One day, my friend Jake told me he had found a "shortcut" to doing well in math class. He said there were websites that had all the answers to the homework problems and tests. Jake gave me one of the websites and I decided to try using it instead of actually learning the math myself. For a little while, it seemed to work! I was getting good grades again without having to put in much effort. I thought I had found the perfect shortcut to success in math class.But boy, was I wrong! A few weeks later, we had a huge test that wasn't posted online. I had no idea how to actually solve any of the problems since I had just been copying answers, not learning. I totally bombed that test. My teacher also figured out what I had been doing and I got in huge trouble. Rather than succeeding, my shortcut attempt backfired in a major way!From that experience, I learned a really critical lesson – there are absolutely no shortcuts when it comes to true, legitimate success. If you want to be successful at something, whether it's academics, sports, music, or anything else, you have to put in the hard work over a long period of time. You have to practice, study, and persistently apply yourself. There's just no way around it.Let's look at some other examples that prove there are no shortcuts to success:• Reading a bunch of summaries online is no shortcut to reading a great book. You have to actually read it, think about it, and understand it yourself.• Copying someone else's essay is no shortcut to being a good writer. You have to learn grammar, build your vocabulary, and practice writing a lot.• Using steroids is no shortcut to being a great athlete. You have to put in the training, eat right, get enough sleep, and work on your skills.• Cheating on a test is no shortcut to learning the material for a class. You have to study, ask questions, and grasp the concepts.The list goes on and on. For any area of life where you want to achieve something great, dig in and do the work. That's the only way to get there.You know who are some of the most successful people ever? People like Michael Jordan, Serena Williams, Bill Gates, J.K. Rowling, and so many others. But none of them took shortcuts. Every single one of them spent years and years practicing theircrafts, making sacrifices, failing sometimes, but always persisting. That's how they became champions, innovators, and highly accomplished leaders.So if you ever feel tempted to take a shortcut, pause and think about whether it's really worth it. Chances are, it's not. Any shortcut you take will likely undermine your success and make things harder in the long run. Do things the right way, work really hard, be patient, and don't give up when you face setbacks. That's the only real path to success.I hope my little story and this essay have helped convince you that there truly are no shortcuts to success. Just commit to doing the hard work, day after day, year after year. If you do that with passion and perseverance in whatever you pursue, you'll be amazed at how successful you can become. Now, let's all get out there and start putting in the hard work towards our biggest goals and dreams! We've got this!篇6There Are No Shortcuts to SuccessSuccess is something we all want, but it doesn't come easy. A lot of people think there are shortcuts to get there quickly without too much hard work. But I've learned that's just not true!Success comes from perseverance, determination, and a whole lot of effort over a long period of time. There are absolutely no shortcuts if you want to achieve something great.Let me give you some examples from my own life as a 5th grader. In school, some kids think they can just copy someone else's homework or cheat on a test to get good grades. But what happens when we have an exam on that same material later? Those kids who cheated won't really understand any of it, and they'll totally bomb the test. The shortcut didn't lead to real learning or success.Another example is kids who are really talented at a sport like soccer or basketball. Some of them think because they're a natural athlete, they don't need to practice as hard as everyone else. But then what happens when they get outworked by other kids who spent hours practicing their dribbling, shooting, and passing? The naturally talented kids may have had some early success, but their shortcut mentality prevented them from reaching their full potential.On the flip side, I know kids who have struggled with academics or sports, but they've worked incredibly hard. My friend Jessica isn't a great reader, but she spends so much time reading out loud to her parents and doing extra practice sheets.Slowly but surely, her reading has improved so much. There were no shortcuts, just hard work and perseverance. The same goes for my neighbor Mike, who is a below average athlete. But he wakes up at 6am every day to run laps around the park and spend hours practicing his batting. He's become such a good baseball player through sheer effort.My parents always tell me that the things worth achieving in life take time, struggle, and consistent hard work over many years. They had no shortcuts either! My dad spent over a decade in night school and taking online classes while working full-time before finally getting his master's degree. My mom didn't just become a successful businesswoman overnight - she started working entry-level jobs, took on extra responsibilities, and spent years learning before working her way up.Even outside of school and work, we can't take shortcuts to get better at hobbies like playing an instrument, painting, or skateboarding. I've been learning guitar for two years now, and let me tell you, there's no shortcut to get good at it. You have to put in the hard work of practicing scales, chords, and songs over and over until your fingers literally hurt. The kids who stick it out and persevere get good; the ones looking for a shortcut just never improve.The truth is, most successful people you admire worked extremely hard for what they achieved. Professional athletes spend their whole lives training with dedication and intensity, waking up at dawn and pushing their bodies to the limit every single day. Famous scientists like Albert Einstein toiled away for years studying and exploring theories until they finally had a groundbreaking discovery. Talented artists like Van Gogh spent decades painting, failing, and trying new techniques to create masterpieces. Success NEVER comes from a shortcut.So what's the lesson in all of this? If you want to achieve something great and be truly successful, you need to be prepared for challenge and struggle. It's going to take years of hard work, perseverance when you feel like giving up, and consistent effort every single day. There will be moments of wanting to take shortcuts to make things easier. But nothing amazing and worthwhile in life comes from cutting corners. Real success only comes from passion, perseverance, and pushing yourself to go further than you ever thought possible.I know I'm just a 5th grader, but I've learned this lesson already. I'm never going to take shortcuts to get good grades, become a better athlete, or get awesome at playing guitar. I'm committed to put in the long-term work, effort, and energy ittakes to be truly successful. The path won't be easy, but it will be worth it. Just like the famous quote says: "There are no shortcuts to any place worth going." I'm ready to go the distance.。

1、长杆开球要准确 FOR LONGER DRIVES把握好开球的节奏是关键。
如果用“我在1973年美国公开赛决赛轮的开球非常好”这样来形容实在是轻描淡写。
我在奥克芒的14个开球有13个上了球道，唯一一个没有开球上球道的洞是标准杆5杆的12号洞。
当时我把球开进了右边的长草当中，但是之后我仍然捉到了小鸟。
我的脑海里一直就回荡一个声音，那就是在开球前打开站姿，当然成功的秘诀并不仅仅于此。
我的开球动作放得很慢，在球杆到达顶点的时候有稍微的停顿，当时我似乎感觉到我的左肩碰到了我的下巴，我并不像业余球手一样加快这种过渡，想想看：如果你在顶点的时候用了百分之三十的力量，剩下就只有百分之七十的力量可用了。
而我的目标是上杆的时候尽量慢，续足能量等待挥杆，同时左腿要直，这样才能发全力。
我在18号洞打出了280码，在挥杆至顶点的时候有一个明显的暂停，那是我全天最远的一次开球。
Pause...then Accelerate!I hit 13 out of 14 narrow fairways at Oakmont. Pacing my tee swing was the key.To say I drove the ball great during the final round of the 1973 U.S. Open is an understatement. The only fairway I missed was on the par-5 12th, where the ball barely trickled into the right rough (I still made birdie). A lot has been made about the voice in my head that told me to open my stance just minutes before teeing off, but there's more to my driving success that week than that. I was really into using a light grip pressure at the time and making an extra-slow backswing. I mean really slow, then pausing at the top as soon as I felt my leftshoulder hit my chin. I never rushed my transition, which a lot of amateurs do. Think about it: If you use 30 percent of your energy at the top, you'll only have 70 percent left for impact. My goal in swinging the club back slowly and pausing at the top was simply to save the energy in my swing for the strike, where I'd snap my left leg straight and sort of mush the clubface into the back of the ball. It worked. The zero-roll, 280-yard drive I hit on No. 18, complete with a noticeable pause at the top, was the longest one hit on that hole all day.2、控制好距离 TO CONTROL DISTANCE头部保持稳定。

圣杯找到了
还是这种标题最震撼。
看来还是要多做实战，本来打算到今年这一年实盘试验结束的时候再总结，谁知突然就找到了，比预想的提前了半年多。
回想起当年对范夏普那本书的轰轰烈烈的讨论，书中有关圣杯的终极答案，原文如下：You’re playing the game of life. Sometimes you win and sometimes you lose, so there are both positive and negative consequences. To accept both the positive and the negative, you need to find that special place inside of you in which you can just be. From that vantage point, wins and losses are equally a part of trading. That metaphor, to me, is the real secret of the Holy Grail.原书翻译为：你是在玩生命这个游戏。
有些时候你会赢．有些时候你会输，因此既有正面的结果也有负面的结果。
想要两者都接受，你需要找到内心中可以这样做到的一个特殊的位置。
从这个有利位置来说，输和赢的机会均等。
那个隐喻对我来说就是圣杯的真正的秘密。
我这么翻译：你在玩人生这场游戏。
有时你赢了，有时你输了，随之产生了正面的和负面的后果。
想要两种后果都接受，你需要找到你内心中一个特殊的位置，在此你能心安。
从这个有利的位置上看，赢和输是交易中同样不可缺少的部分。
这个比喻，对我来说就是圣杯真正的秘密。
我的这种翻译是基于我现在的理解，是不是好很多？不过如果不理解，就无法翻译对。
很多外文著作其实已经说得很清楚了，但读翻译的著作却还是没有办法学到什么东西，我要是当年早点去读一下这本书的这段原文，可能就不需要这么多年才搞明白。
抵抗天赋的诱惑(中英文)
抵抗天赋的诱惑(记贝索斯在普林斯顿大学2010年学士毕业典礼上的演讲) 我一直相信每一个人都有自己的天赋，每一个人的存在都代表着宇宙空间中的一种唯一，然而令我经常都在深思的是，既然我们都是这样的独特，又为何偏偏要去模仿和畸变成拥有同类“基因”的人呢？为什么我们中的很多人都不愿意去追逐属于自己的理想，或者不能为此奋斗一生呢，抑或者一生都是在自欺欺人的辩解？在Randy的The Last Lecture中我深深的感受到了一个人追逐自己最初理想的意义会变得如此的伟大，充满的是一种人生最大的和最根本的价值。
一直在想这样的一个问题，当社会尚且艰难，生活尚且苦难的日子里都有如此多人在追逐属于自己梦想的时候；在一个生活舒适，物质条件优越的年代我们竟然不知所措的迷失掉自己的方向，找不到自己前行的路。
这是多么可悲和可笑的一种境况！我们，有了更高的天赋，有了更好的环境，却因为有更多的选择而抹杀了我们自己的梦...这确实让人觉得不可思议！我相信每个人都有自己最初的梦想，在这样的一个年代，在这样一个至少没有饥寒交迫的时代，我坚信追逐自己理想的人会获得生命尽头最高贵的礼物和人生最大的价值！记：在一个可以实现最初梦想的时代选择不可以的沉默必将是这个时代最损失的损失，也必将是生活在这个时代的人最遗憾的遗憾...附：抵抗天赋的诱惑（贝索斯在普林斯顿大学2010年学士毕业典礼上的演讲）中文译稿：在我还是一个孩子的时候，我的夏天总是在德州祖父母的农场中度过。
我帮忙修理风车，为牛接种疫苗，也做其它家务。
每天下午，我们都会看肥皂剧，尤其是《我们的岁月》。
我的祖父母参加了一个房车俱乐部，那是一群驾驶Airstream拖挂型房车的人们，他们结伴遍游美国和加拿大。
每隔几个夏天，我也会加入他们。
我们把房车挂在祖父的小汽车后面，然后加入300余名Airstream探险者们组成的浩荡队伍。
我爱我的祖父母，我崇敬他们，也真心期盼这些旅程。
那是一次我大概十岁时的旅行，我照例坐在后座的长椅上，祖父开着车，祖母坐在他旁边，吸着烟。

华尔街大佬Jack Bogle推荐：投资者必读的六本书
华尔街大佬Jack Bogle推荐：投资者必读的六本书∙经济∙市场2012年12月27日13:18文/ 张澄Vanguard基金创始人Jack Bogle是华尔街备受仰慕的大佬之一，在新年之际，他给出了一份推荐书目清单作为献给投资者的新年礼物。
这份清单中共有6本书，都是被Jack Bogle视作投资必读的书目。
1. “The Intelligent Investor”作者：Benjamin Graham，更新版本中有Jason Zweig的评论部分。
Jack Bogle评价：“这本书首次出版于1949年，这个经典中的经典有可能是有史以来写得最好的投资书。
Graham的文笔清晰易懂，为之后所有的投资类书籍打下了基础。
”2.“A Random Walk Down Wall Street (第10版)”作者：Burton G. MalkielJack Bogle评价：“Malkiel是一个普林斯顿经济学家，这本颇具影响力的书现在已经出到第10个版本了，该书对他提出的随机游走假设理论（random walk hypothesis）提供了很有说服力的依据。
这个理论主要阐述了市场价格的本质是随机性的，因而无法做出可信赖的长期价格预期。
Malkiel教授的观点也能够为我最喜欢的投资（指数基金）提供很好的理论基础。
”3. “Unconventional Success”作者：David F. SwensenJack Bogle评价：“David Swensen为耶鲁大学捐赠基金做的投资策略特点，是从传统股票和债券转移资产至流动性更小的替代性资产上去，这种做法有很大的影响力，现在已经成为了公认的耶鲁模式。
耶鲁模式可能更多地适用于有禀赋的投资家，但这本Unconventional Success却为专注于低成本指数基金的个人投资者提供了很多方法。
”4. “The Four Pillars of Investing”作者：William J. BernsteinJack Bogle评价：“Bernstein有点像文艺复兴时代的人，他是一位精神病学家，一位投资顾问公司创始人，一个金融理论家，一个投资书籍作者，同时还是经济史类书籍的作者。
