商业忠告始终在变，但是有些忠告无论在什么年代、对什么行业都是相通并有帮助的。

　　1 --Push through your limitations 突破你的限制

　　"The successful person makes a habit of doing what the failing person doesn’t like to do."

　　--Thomas Edison

　　“成功的人养成了做失败者不愿干的事的习惯。” ——托马斯·爱迪生

　　Business is scary. It can be new, difficult, frustrating, and many other things--but if you push through those limitations and do the things that are hard you might see the best of what business can be: rewarding, lucrative, challenging, and fun.

　　商业是充满风险的。它可能是全新的、困难的、让人灰心的以及其他遭遇——但是如果你突破这些限制，并按照自己的意愿努力工作，商业中好的一面将呈现在你的面前：回报、利益、挑战和乐趣。

　　Pushing yourself can be hard, but it’s worth it in the end.

　　自我超越可能会很困难，但最终它是值得的。

　　2 --Never stop improving 不断改进

　　"An organization’s ability to learn, and translate that learning into action rapidly, is the ultimate competitive advantage." --Jack Welch

　　“一个团体有学习的能力并把所学迅速转化为行动，这就是无穷的竞争优势。” ——杰克·韦尔奇

　　The world changes, and things are always moving forward. In order to keep up, it’s critical to always learn and always improve.

　　世界不断变迁，事物永远向前发展。为了赶上时代的步伐，不断学习、不断的提高至关重要。

　　In business, the companies who are most successful are the ones who keep learning, keep improving, and keep adapting.

　　商业上，最为成功的公司是那些保持学习、不断进步和与时俱进的公司。

　　3 --Action is more important than talk 行动胜于言语

　　"The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing." --Walt Disney

　　“开始做一件事的时候，就应该停止讨论并马上开始工作。” ——沃特·迪斯尼

　　We’ve all heard the cliche before, actions speak louder than words; but it has real truth in business. Action is what matters, not talk, or ideas, or even how much money you have. If business success is what you want, than you need to take action.

　　我们都听过这句陈词滥调——行动胜于言语，这在商业中是至理名言。行动不是言谈，不是想法，也与你有多少钱无关。如果你想取得商业上的成功，那就必须采取行动。

　　4 --Success takes hard work 成功来自努力工作

　　"Only one who devotes himself to a cause with his whole strength and soul can be a true master. For this reason mastery demands all of a person." --Albert Einstein

　　“只有那些把全部精力和心血都投入到一个目标中去的人，才能成为大师。因为精通一行需要一个人全身心的投入。” ——阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦

　　Doing well in business requires effort. A lot of effort.

　　经商需要努力，并且是非常多的努力。

　　Those who achieve the most are often the ones who are the most passionate, and most determined to reach their goals--because they devote themselves to the cause and put in the effort that others cant. It takes time, but with focus and hard work you’ll almost always do well.

　　成就最大的人往往是那些最富有激情和最坚定去实现目标的人——因为他们把自己奉献给了这个事业，并比他人付出更多的努力。成功需要时间，但只要拥有专注和努力，你就无往不利了。
