林书豪教会我们10个人生道理(上)编 者 注 不久前，在NBA赛场上，华裔球员林书豪带领尼克斯队直取7连胜，单场个人最高搏得38分，成为世界体坛的风云人物。如果这个成绩出自乔丹、科比或者姚明，人们或许会有同样的喝彩，却难有如此的惊叹。美国总统奥巴马评价：林的成功超越了体育，林书豪的昨天、今天与明天，更可以启发人们的深度思考。 1. Believe in yourself when no one else does. Lin is only the fourth student of Harvard to enter the NBA. He’s also one of only a handful of Asian-Americans to make it. He was sent by the Knicks to play for their D-League team 3 weeks ago. He’d already been cut by two other NBA teams before joining the Knicks this year. You’ve got to believe in yourself, even when no one else does. 即使没人相信你也不能绝望。林书豪只是第四位能够进入NBA的哈佛学生。他也只是一小撮能够登陆NBA的亚裔美国人之一。在三个星期前，他还曾被尼克斯队下放到NBDL球队。在这个赛季加盟尼克斯队之前，林书豪曾被两支其他的NBA球队裁掉。即使没人相信你了，你也不能对自己绝望。 2. Seize the opportunity when it comes up. Lin got to start for the Knicks because they had no other choices. They had too many injuries. Baron Davis was gone. The other point guards were out. Carmelo Anthony was injured. Amare Stoudemire had to leave the team because of a family death. If Lin squandered(浪费) the opportunity, we would never noticed him. But he made the most of it. You never know when opportunities are going to arise(出现) in life. Make the most of them. Dont fritter (挥霍) them away. 当机会来临时要好好把握。尼克斯队之所以让林书豪打上首发，实属无奈之举，他们的伤病球员太多了。拜伦·戴维斯一直无法上场。其他控球后卫也不能出战。卡梅罗·安东尼受伤了。阿玛雷·斯塔德迈尔因家人去世而离队奔丧。如果林书豪浪费掉这个机会，他将不会得到我们的关注，但他很好地利用了这个机会。在生活中，你从不知道机会何时会降临。尽最大限度地利用这些机会，不要挥霍掉了。 3. Your family will always support you, so don’t disappoint them. It wasn’t until a few days ago that Lin got his contract guaranteed by the Knicks. Before that, he could have been cut at any time. He had to sleep on his brother’s couch (沙发) on the Lower East Side of New York. His family always believed in him and supported him when he was about to give up. That made him continue to believe. If you want your family to believe in you like that, youve got to be there for them when they need it. 你的家人将一直支持你，因此你不应让他们失望。直到最近几天，林书豪才获得尼克斯队的保障性合同。在这之前，他随时都可能被裁掉。此前他只能在纽约市下东区的哥哥家睡沙发。他的家人一直都相信他，在他快要放弃的时候也给予他支持。这使他坚守自己的信念。如果你希望家
