復(fù)合效果

In today’s lesson you will learn one of the principle reasons why little things really do matter, and you will comprehend the incredible impact little efforts can have on your life.

在今天的課上你將學(xué)習(xí)為什么小事很重要的原因,,你會(huì)理解這個(gè)小的努力對(duì)你的生活不可思議的影響。

Over the past month I have read and listened to Darren Hardy’s new book The Compound Effect. It is one of the best books I have ever read on what it really takes to become successful at anything.

在過(guò)去一個(gè)月我已經(jīng)閱讀和聽(tīng)了達(dá)倫·哈迪的新書(shū)的復(fù)合效應(yīng)。這是我讀過(guò)的最好的書(shū)之一,它真的要比任何都成功。

Darren makes the argument that the only path to success is through the continuum of mundane, unsexy, unexciting, and sometimes difficult daily disciplines compounded over time.

達(dá)倫在文章中提出成功的唯一途徑是通過(guò)持續(xù)平凡,不性感,單調(diào)乏味的,有時(shí)困難日常的小事復(fù)合在一起。

If you want to lose weight, let’s assume you cut out just one of your 150 calorie snacks or beverages each day for a year. This simple discipline would result in a weight difference of 15 pounds after one year. (150 x 365 = 54,750 calories saved, divided by 3500 calories per pound = 15.64 pounds difference.) For me, I cut out my daily Coke.

如果你想減肥,讓我們假設(shè)你減少每天150卡路里的零食或飲料一年。這個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的紀(jì)律會(huì)導(dǎo)致一年后體重15磅的不同。(150 x 365 = 150卡路里,除以3500卡路里每磅= 15.64磅的區(qū)別。)對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō),我每天不喝我的可樂(lè)

Reaching your goals is achieved by the DAILY effort you put into what you do, not by some magic success formula, new miracle product, or undiscovered Internet business. Every big success is made up of little successes, each building on the previous and compounding over time.

達(dá)到你的目標(biāo)是通過(guò)每天的努力你投入你做什么,而不是一些神奇的成功配方,新奇跡的產(chǎn)品,或未發(fā)現(xiàn)的互聯(lián)網(wǎng)業(yè)務(wù)。每一大成功是由小成功組成,每一個(gè)建立在前面然后復(fù)合在一起。

Formula for Life

給生活制定公式

Darren created a life formula: “Your life comes down to this formula. You à Choices (decisions) + Behavior (action) + Habit (repeated action) + Compound Effect (Time) = Goals.” Let’s examine each of these components separately.

達(dá)倫生活創(chuàng)造了一個(gè)公式:“你的生活歸結(jié)于這個(gè)公式。你的選擇(決策)+行為(動(dòng)作)+習(xí)慣(重復(fù)動(dòng)作)+復(fù)合效應(yīng)(時(shí)間)=目標(biāo)。“讓我們分開(kāi)檢查這些每個(gè)組件。

Choices

Darren said, “The difference between becoming fabulously rich, happy and healthy—or broke, depressed and unhealthy is the choices you make throughout your life.” Our lives are a mirror image of the decisions we make each day. For example, the decision to make a healthy food choice, versus something we know is not healthy. One of my all-time favorite quotes by Jim Rohn is “Success comes from making a series of good decisions over time while failure comes from making a series of poor decisions over time.”

選擇 Darren說(shuō):“之間的區(qū)別變得極其富有,幸福和健康,或者在你的生活中沮喪和不健康的選擇。“我們的生命是一個(gè)每天做出的決定的鏡像。例如,決定一個(gè)健康食品的選擇,和我們知道的東西是不健康的。我一直最喜歡的名言之一是Jim Rohn 的“成功來(lái)自一直一系列好的決策而失敗來(lái)自于一系列糟糕的決策。”

If you want to improve your life, you must improve your decisions. I believe the most important element in making good decisions is making conscious decisions. This is when you actually consider the pros and cons of your decisions before making them. I am convinced most people float through life making decisions on the fly, with little if any thought, only to find themselves wondering why they aren’t happy, healthy, or successful.

如果你想改善你的生活,你必須提高你的決策。我相信好的決策最重要的元素是有意識(shí)的決策。這是當(dāng)你真正考慮你的決定之前的利弊。我相信大多數(shù)人浮在生活中做出決定,很少如果任何思想,卻發(fā)現(xiàn)自己想知道為什么他們不快樂(lè),健康,或成功。

Behavior

What stands between you and your goal is your behavior. Darren said, “If you say you are a dedicated professional, but yet you show up late and unprepared, your behavior rats you out every time.” Do you need to stop doing things so the compound effect doesn’t take you in a downward spiral? Similarly, what do you need to start doing to change your trajectory so you are headed in the right direction? As you consider your goals, what behaviors may be sabotaging your success?

行為 你的行為站在你和你的目標(biāo)之間。Darren說(shuō),“如果你說(shuō)你很專業(yè),但你遲到和沒(méi)有準(zhǔn)備,你的行為每次把你出賣。“你需要停止做事，不復(fù)合效果才不會(huì)帶你在一個(gè)惡性循環(huán)中，同樣,你需要開(kāi)始做什么改變你的軌跡,這樣你前進(jìn)的方向是正確的嗎?當(dāng)你考慮你的目標(biāo),什么行為可能會(huì)破壞你的成功?

Habits

We must establish the right habits—those that repeated over time take us in the right direction. We must look at everything we do consistently and determine if it is a habit that moves us towards or against what we want to achieve. We must create routines or systems of action that become beneficial habits over time.

習(xí)慣。我們必須養(yǎng)成良好的習(xí)慣——通過(guò)不斷重復(fù)這些習(xí)慣，我們才能保持正確的前進(jìn)方向。我們要一直注意自己做的每件事，然后判斷這種習(xí)慣能讓我們實(shí)現(xiàn)目標(biāo)還是南轅北轍，離目標(biāo)越 來(lái)越遠(yuǎn)。我們做事時(shí)要形成一種習(xí)慣和體系并不斷重復(fù)，它們就會(huì)變成對(duì)我們有益的好習(xí)慣。

Darren said, “A routine is something you do every day without fail, so that eventually, like brushing your teeth or putting on your seatbelt, you do it without conscious thought. Just as investments compound over time, so do our daily actions. If they are good they take us down one path. If they are bad or destructive, they take us down a completely different path.”

達(dá)倫曾說(shuō)過(guò)：“習(xí)慣就是你每天都會(huì)做的事，而且不會(huì)間斷，所以到最后你就會(huì)習(xí)慣成自然。例如每天刷牙和每次坐車系安全帶一樣。我們的日常生活行為就像長(zhǎng)時(shí)間的投資復(fù)合一樣。如果 是好習(xí)慣，我們就能循著它找到正確的方向;如果是壞習(xí)慣，我們就會(huì)被領(lǐng)向一條完全不同的路。”

The Compound Effect

Darren defines the Compound Effect this way: “It’s the principle of reaping huge rewards from a series of small, smart choices. Success is earned in the moment to moment decisions that in themselves make no visible difference whatsoever, but the accumulated compounding effect is profound.”

復(fù)合效果。達(dá)倫是這樣定義復(fù)合效應(yīng)的：復(fù)合效應(yīng)是指從一系列微小而明智的選擇中得到巨大回報(bào)的準(zhǔn)則。成功是在一個(gè)一個(gè)決定中得來(lái)的。這些選擇本身看起來(lái)并沒(méi)有什么作用，但是它們 卻有影響深遠(yuǎn)的復(fù)合效果。

If you want to save money so you can enjoy your retirement, consider the compounding effect of spending $4 a day on coffee. If you choose to invest $4 a day at 8% interest rather than spending it on a cup of coffee it would result in $51,833.79 in 20 years. The same result could also be reached by making your own lunches rather than eating out. Do both and you will have saved an extra $100,000.

如果你想省錢,所以你可以享受你的退休,考慮每天花4美元喝咖啡的復(fù)合效應(yīng)。如果你選擇投資4美元一天8%的利息,而不是花費(fèi)在一杯咖啡會(huì)導(dǎo)致20年來(lái)的紀(jì)錄高位51833 .79美元。同樣的結(jié)果也可以達(dá)到通過(guò)做自己的午餐,而不是外出就餐。做這兩個(gè),你會(huì)省下一個(gè)額外的100000美元。

Patience is the Answer

耐心就是答案

In order for the compound effect to work, you need to be patient. Most of these daily changes won’t provide immediate results. If you reduce your calories by 150 today, you won’t see a difference today or even this week. The same is true with working out. You can go bust your butt at the gym and you won’t see results today or this week. These daily disciplines must be given time to produce results.

為了使復(fù)合效應(yīng)有效,你需要有耐心。大多數(shù)這些日常的變化不會(huì)提供直接的結(jié)果。今天如果你減少150卡路里，你不會(huì)看到今天的差異甚至本周。工作也是如此。你可以在健身房弄破你的屁股,也不會(huì)看到今天或本周的結(jié)果。這些日常規(guī)則必須給定時(shí)間產(chǎn)生結(jié)果。

Darren said, “What’s most interesting about the process to me is that even though the results are massive, the steps, in the moment, don’t feel significant. Whether you are using this strategy for improving your health, relationships, finances or anything else, the changes are so subtle, they’re almost imperceptible.”

Darren說(shuō),“最有趣的過(guò)程對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō),即使結(jié)果是巨大的,在當(dāng)下,過(guò)程也感覺(jué)不明顯。無(wú)論你是使用此策略改善你的健康,人際關(guān)系,財(cái)政或其他東西,這些變化是如此的微妙,他們幾乎無(wú)法察覺(jué)的。”

The Path Upward

走向成功

If achieving your goals and living the life you have always dreamed of is important to you, I have three challenges for you.

如果實(shí)現(xiàn)你的目標(biāo)和生活你一直夢(mèng)想的生活對(duì)你來(lái)說(shuō)很重要,我有三個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)。

1. Make a list of all the choices you make throughout each day and ask these questions. When these choices are compounded over time will they move me closer to the accomplishment of my goals or will they take me further away? Will the time I spend reading the morning newspaper help me achieve my goals? Will the time I spend watching TV help me achieve my goals? Will this lunch choice help me achieve my goals?

列出所有的選擇在每一天,問(wèn)這些問(wèn)題。當(dāng)這些選擇是加劇隨著時(shí)間的推移,他們會(huì)動(dòng)我更接近我的目標(biāo)的完成或他們會(huì)帶我遠(yuǎn)嗎?我早上讀報(bào)紙所花的時(shí)間會(huì)幫助我實(shí)現(xiàn)我的目標(biāo)?我看電視所花的時(shí)間能幫我實(shí)現(xiàn)我的目標(biāo)?這午餐的選擇能幫我實(shí)現(xiàn)我的目標(biāo)?

2. Review your goals and make a list of the habits you must create each day to achieve them. After making this list, commit to reading this list and applying each of the points listed for the next 21 days. Once you have done them consistently, every day for 21 days, they will start to become habits and will be much easier to sustain over the long term.

回顧你的目標(biāo)和列出的習(xí)慣你每天必須創(chuàng)建實(shí)現(xiàn)。使這個(gè)列表后,致力于閱讀這個(gè)列表,列出的每個(gè)分申請(qǐng)下一個(gè)21天。一旦你做了他們堅(jiān)持,每天21天,他們將開(kāi)始成為習(xí)慣,將更容易長(zhǎng)期維持。

3. Buy, study and dissect Darren’s new book, available at (Darren Hardy is the visionary force behind SUCCESS magazine as the Publisher and Editorial Director. More from Darren on his blog, Facebook or Twitter.)

購(gòu)買、研究和解析達(dá)倫的新書(shū),(達(dá)倫·哈迪是成功背后的力量雜志出版商和編輯主任。更多的來(lái)自達(dá)倫。在他的博客上,Facebook或Twitter)。

To achieve something you have never achieved before, you must be willing to do what you have never done before.

為了實(shí)現(xiàn)一些你之前從未實(shí)現(xiàn),你必須愿意做你從未做過(guò)的。
