【2017年整理】从最成功的人身上学到的10件事.docxVIP

The best career advice is universal. It applies to a CEO of a Fortune 500 company and to a kid aspiring to make it through college.最好的职业建议具有普适性。它不仅适用于一家《财富》500强公司(Fortune 500)的CEO，还适用于一位渴望考上好大学的孩子。I tried to keep this in mind last week when I spoke at Allentown Central Catholic High School, which in 1978 sent me on my way from Pennsylvania to what has turned out to be a thrilling and very satisfying life and career. I told the CCHS students, who packed Rockne Hall for inductions of their new Student Council and class officers, that Ive spent the past 30 years at Fortune going to school on success. That is, my job profiling some of the worlds most successful people--fromOprah Winfrey to Yahoo (YHOO) CEO Marissa Mayer to Rupert Murdoch (NWS) to Melinda Gates--is to learn and explain what makes these extraordinary people win and adapt to all sorts of challenges. I pared my message to 10 pieces of advice, which include a few obvious truths and, I hope, some enlightening points that are universal.上周，当我在艾伦敦中央天主教高中(CCHS)发表演讲时，我尝试着达到这一标准。1978年，我就是从这所学校走出宾夕法尼亚州，开启了一段激动人心，让我非常满意的生活和职业旅程。我对聚集在罗克尼厅参加新一届学生会和班级干部就职仪式的学生说，在《财富》杂志(Fortune)工作的30年，我一直在“上成功课”。换言之，我的工作就是/study/ \t _blank学习并解释，究竟是什么让世界上最成功的一些人适应各种各样的挑战，最终成为人生赢家——从奥普拉?温弗瑞到雅虎公司(Yahoo)CEO玛丽莎?梅耶，再到鲁珀特?默多克和梅琳达?盖茨，我采访并撰写过许多杰出人物。我把我打算传递的讯息浓缩为十条建议，其中包括一些显而易见的道理。但愿这些建议具有普适性，能够给不同读者以启迪。1. Dont plan your career.Most of the really successful people Ive met and interviewed these past 30 years at Fortune had no clue what they wanted to do when they were in high school or even in college. They stayed flexible and open to possibilities.1.不要规划你的职业生涯。根据我过去30年来在《财富》杂志的采访经历，在高中甚至大学阶段，那些最终获得巨大成功的人基本上都不知道他们究竟想做什么。他们以灵活且开放的心态面对种种可能性。2. Forget the career ladder; climb the jungle gym.In a world thats unpredictable and changing faster than ever, who knows what tomorrows ideal jobs will be? Think of your career as a jungle gym. Sharpen your peripheral vision and look for opportunities over here or over there, and swing to them. Facebook (FB) COO
