奥里森·斯威特·马登:向前进·摘录 265

奥里森·斯威特·马登《向前进》· Pushing to the Front · 领导

Never before was the opportunity of the educated man so great as to-day. Never before was there such a demand for the trained man, _the man who can do a thing superbly well_. At the door of every vocation is a sign out, "Wanted--a man." No matter how many millions are out of employment, the whole world is hunting for a man who can do things; a trained thinker who can do whatever he undertakes a little better than it has ever before been done. Everywhere it is the educated, the trained man, the man whose natural ability has been enlarged, enhanced one hundredfold by superior training, that is wanted.

白话

核心是:今天最缺的是受过训练、能把事做到极致的人。作者说,受过教育的人机会从未如此之大,社会对“能出色完成一件事”的人需求空前。每个行业门口都挂着“招人”的牌子,但招的不是随便什么人,而是训练有素的思考者,能把任何事做得比以往更好。即使失业者成千上万,全世界仍在寻找真正能做事的人。所以关键不是有没有文凭,而是有没有把天赋通过训练放大百倍,成为某个领域里靠得住的高手。
