有付出才有收獲（雙語）

付出超過所得帶來的益處

Since going the extra mile can involve hardship由于想要向前邁進必須付出辛苦的代價，

One rainy afternoon an elderly lady walked into a Philadelphia department store.Most of the clerks ignored her,bet on solicitous young man asked if he could help her.When she replied that she was just waiting for the rain to end,he didn't try to sell her something she didn't try to sell her something she didn't want,and he didn't turn his back.Instead he brought her a chair.

在一個多雨的午后，一位老婦人走進費城一家百貨公司， 大多數(shù)的柜臺人員都不理她，但有一位年輕人卻問她是否能 為她做些什么。當她回答說只是在等雨停時，這位年輕人并有推銷給她不需要的東西，雖然如此，這位銷售人員并沒有轉身離去，反而拿給她一張椅子。

When the rain let up,the lady thanked the young man and asked for his card. A few months passed, and the owner of the store received a letter asking that this young man be sent to Scotland to take orders for furnishing an entire castle!The letter writer was the elderly lady for whom the clerk had provided a chair.She also happened to be Andrew Carnegie's mother.

雨停之底這位老婦人向這位年輕人說了聲謝謝，并向他 要了一張名片，幾個月之后這家店東收到一封信，信中要求派 這位年輕人往蘇格蘭收取裝潢一整座城堡的訂單2這封信就 是這位老婦人寫的，而她正是美國鋼鐵大王卡內基的母親。

By the time the young clerk had his bags packed for Scotland,he was a prater in that department store.This was the result of the Law of Increasing Returns, all because he had shown a little concern and courtesy when no one else would.

當這位年輕人打包準備去蘇格蘭時，他已升格為這家百 貨公司的合伙人了。這個例子是報酬增加律的最佳寫照，而報酬增加原因，就在于他比別人付出更多的關心和禮貌。

Give when you get. Whenever you get a little, give a little. There's a couple ways to pull this off: You can implement it yourself (donating an older shirt when you splurge for a new shirt, etc), or support companies that are passionate, good-hearted (really fun) do-gooders.Doesn't get much better than that, does it?

當你得到時就給予。無論何時只要你得到了一點點，那就給予一點點?？梢杂泻芏喾N方法：你可以自己去做(比如當你買了一件新襯衫時可以捐出一件舊襯衫)或支持有激情的公司、熱心腸的好人。還有什么比這更好的呢?
