Major Differences:
1. Successful people embrace change. Unsuccessful people fear it.(成功者拥抱改变,而失败者惧怕改变)
“Embracing change is one of the hardest things a person can do,” Kerpen says. With the world moving fast and technology accelerating at a rapid speed, it’s imperative that we embrace these changes and adapt, rather than fear them, deny then, or hide from them, he says. Successful people are able to do just that.
2. Successful people talk about ideas. Unsuccessful people talk about people.(成功者分享信息,而失败者分享八卦)
Instead of gossiping about people — which gets you nowhere — successful people discuss ideas. “Sharing ideas with others will only make them better,” Kerpen says.
3. Successful people accept responsibility for their failures. Unsuccessful people blame others. (成功者承担失败的责任,而失败者怪罪他人)
Truly successful leaders and businesspeople experience both ups and downs in their lives and careers. But they always accept responsibility for their failures. Kerpen says blaming others solves nothing. “It just puts other people down and absolutely no good comes from it.”
4. Successful people give others all the credit for their victories. Unsuccessful people take all the credit from others.(成功者将胜利归功他人,而失败者企图独享荣誉)
Letting people have their moments to shine motives them to work harder, and, consequently, makes you look better as a leader or teammate.
5. Successful people want others to succeed. Unsuccessful people secretly hope others fail. (成功者希望他人成功,而失败者偷偷希望他人失败)
“When you’re in an organization with a group of people, in order to be successful, you all have to be successful,” Kerpen explains. That’s why the most successful people don’t wish for their demise; they want to see their co-workers succeed and grow.
Other major differences: Successful people exude joy, share data and information, read every day, and continuously learn。
Unsuccessful people exude anger, hoard data and information, watch TV every day, and fly by the seat of their pants.
