1.你殺死自己的可能性比其他任何人都大。
2.No one will remember you. Maybe two or threegenerations down, if you’re lucky. Even from thesuccessful, very few are remembered. You mightbring Einstein or Shakespeare up, but at this point, more people only know their name rather thananything else.
2.沒(méi)人會(huì)記得你。如果夠幸運(yùn)的話可能過(guò)了兩三代你就被忘掉了,甚至成功人士中也鮮有人被記住。你可能會(huì)提到愛(ài)因斯坦或莎士比亞,但就這一點(diǎn)來(lái)說(shuō),更多的人只是知道他們的名字,對(duì)其他事情幾乎一無(wú)所知。

“You can be replaced too..”
“你也能被代替…”
When Carl Lewis ran a 100m sprint under 10 seconds for the first time; it was like the wholeworld came to a standstill. A feat that has not been achieved before in history and that cannotbe achieved by anyone in future, ever again.
當(dāng)卡爾?劉易斯第一次以不到10秒的成績(jī)跑完百米時(shí),全世界仿佛都靜止了。歷史上從未有過(guò)如此成績(jī),未來(lái)也不會(huì)再有人取得這樣的成績(jī)。
However, the sad truth of life is that you can never stay on top of the podium for long. Fromthen on, there have been at least 100 odd sprinters who have surpassed the 10 sec mark.
然而令人悲哀的生活真相是你永遠(yuǎn)不會(huì)在領(lǐng)獎(jiǎng)臺(tái)上停留太久。那以后,至少有100名短跑神將破了10秒的記錄。
The same applies to all of us. We can all be replaced; be it in our family, office or neighborhood. It’s just that the right person has to come up at the right time to knock you off.
這也適用于我們所有人。我們都會(huì)被替代,無(wú)論是在家庭里、工作上還是社會(huì)上??倳?huì)有對(duì)的人適時(shí)出現(xiàn)把你換掉。
