We all like to think we are special. Better than others. Doing better work. Excelling beyond our peers.Yet, by definition, most people are average.
我們都希望自己是特別的,比別人優(yōu)秀,做更好的工作,超越我們的同齡人。然而根據(jù)定義我們能看出,大多數(shù)人都是普通的。
Are you choosing to be average?
你會(huì)選擇成為普通的人嗎?
Average is What Everyone Else Does
普通人就是跟其他人做一樣事情的那種人
I was chatting with a business colleague recently. He was frustrated that he had not advanced faster in his career. There was a sense of entitlement and much complaining. (I wanted to tell him that no one was going to give him his dreams.) Instead, I asked him a simple question about his job, “What are you doing that is above average?”
我最近和一位業(yè)務(wù)伙伴聊天,他很沮喪因?yàn)樗氖聵I(yè)并沒有很快提升。他認(rèn)為自己應(yīng)該得到但事實(shí)上沒有,所以有諸多抱怨。(我想要告訴他沒有人可以幫他實(shí)現(xiàn)他的目標(biāo))然后,我只是問他了關(guān)于他工作方面的一個(gè)很簡(jiǎn)單的問題,“你現(xiàn)在做的什么事情是普通人做不到的呢?”
In other words, what do you do that is better than everyone else?
換句話說,你做的事情是不是比別人做得更好呢?
There was more complaining and a statement about putting in more time than his peers. The conversation eventually ended, but I ran into the same individual a few days later. He came up to me and said, “I thought about that question. And you know what? I don’t do anything that everyone else doesn’t do. In fact, there are several people who could do my job.”
他反而抱怨更多了,而且說自己比同齡人投入了更多的時(shí)間。談話最終結(jié)束了,但我?guī)滋旌笥钟錾狭怂。他走到我面前?duì)我說,“我考慮了下你的問題。但你知道嗎?其他人不會(huì)做的任何事情我也不會(huì)做的。事實(shí)上,的確有一些人可以做我的工作!
He finished with, “I am average at work.”
他最后說,“在工作上,我只是個(gè)普通人!
Average is as Average Does
普通就是按照普通人的方式做
Average is what everyone else does. If you want to succeed, you must go beyond average.
“普通人就只會(huì)做其他所有人都會(huì)做的事情。如果你想要成功,你就必須超過普通人!
Average is following the crowd.
普通人做事情循規(guī)蹈矩。
Average is following the standard career path.
普通人只會(huì)按標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的職業(yè)流程辦事。
Average doesn’t get up early (or stay up late) to work on their dreams.
普通人不會(huì)早起(或是熬夜)去實(shí)踐他們的夢(mèng)想。
Average doesn’t exercise or get in shape.
普通人不會(huì)去運(yùn)動(dòng)或是健身。
Average is doing what everyone else does.
普通人只會(huì)做其他所有人都會(huì)做的事情。
Choose Not to Be Average
選擇不成為普通人
The story above has another chapter. This particular individual told me that he had decided that he wasn’t going to settle for average anymore. He was going to choose to not be average in his daily performance anymore. Instead of going through the motions and doing what everyone else did, he was going to make a concerted effort to go above and beyond average.
上面講到的故事后來(lái)還有另一段。這個(gè)家伙告訴我,他決定將不再滿足于做普通人。在他以后每天的工作表現(xiàn)中,將不會(huì)成為普通的人。他將盡一切努力去超越普通的人,而不是走走過場(chǎng),做其他人都能做的事情。
So, how do you choose not to be average? Here are 5 Ways to Choose Not to Be Average:
那么,你如何才能不成為普通的人呢?下面是五種方法教你如何不成為一個(gè)普通的人:
1. Have Goals – Average doesn’t have goals. Average doesn’t write them down. And average doesn’t make progress every single day without excuses. Make sure you have clearly defined goals and that you do something daily to move them forward.
要有目標(biāo)——普通人是沒有目標(biāo)的,普通人也不會(huì)將它們寫下來(lái),普通人也不會(huì)沒有理由每天都進(jìn)步。確保你有明確具體的目標(biāo),而且你每天都的事情都能讓你更接近目標(biāo)。
2. Go Above and Beyond – Average does just enough to get by and nothing more. Average does what is expected and stops there. Go beyond people’s expectations and surprise them with results. (It is important to note that this is not always about the
