To summarize what I have said: aim for the highest; never enter a bar room; do not touch liquor [ˈlɪkə(r)], or if at all only at meals; never speculate [ˈspekjuleɪt] ; never indorse [ɪn'dɔ:s] beyond your surplus [ˈsɜ:pləs] cash fund; make the firm’s interest yours; break orders always to save owners; concentrate; put all your eggs in one basket,and watch that basket;expenditure [ɪkˈspendɪtʃə(r)] always within revenue [ˈrevənju:]; lastly, be not impatient, for as Emerson says, “no one can cheat you out of ultimate [ˈʌltɪmət]success but yourselves.”
----The Road to Success
把我的话归纳一下:要志存高远;不要出入酒吧;要滴酒不沾,或要喝也只在用餐时喝少许;不要做投机买卖;不要寅吃卯粮;要把公司的利益当作自己的利益;取消订货的目的永远是为了挽救货主;要专注;要把所有的鸡蛋放在一个篮子里,然后小心地看好它;要量入为出;最后,要有耐心,正如爱默生所言,“谁都无法阻止你最终成功,除非你自己承认自己失败。”
