保罗·格雷厄姆:如何努力工作·第1则

保罗·格雷厄姆《《如何努力工作》》· How to Work Hard · 领导 · 行动 · 成长 · 认知

It might not seem there's much to learn about how to work hard. Anyone who's been to school knows what it entails, even if they chose not to do it. There are 12 year olds who work amazingly hard. And yet when I ask if I know more about working hard now than when I was in school, the answer is definitely yes. One thing I know is that if you want to do great things, you'll have to work very hard. I wasn't sure of that as a kid. Schoolwork varied in difficulty; one didn't always have to work super hard to do well. And some of the things famous adults did, they seemed to do almost effortlessly. Was there, perhaps, some way to evade hard work through sheer brilliance? Now I know the answer to that question. There isn't.

白话

关于如何努力,似乎没什么可学的。上过学的人都知道努力意味着什么,即使他们选择不努力。有12岁的孩子努力得惊人。但当我问自己现在是否比上学时更懂努力,答案绝对是肯定的。我知道的一件事是:如果你想做伟大的事,就必须非常努力。小时候我不确定这一点。学业难度不一,不总是需要超级努力才能做好。一些著名成年人的事,他们似乎几乎不费力就做到了。也许有某种方式可以靠纯粹的天才逃避努力?现在我知道答案了:没有。
