  對成功的定義

  The standard of success: they can list a bunch of happy family, a successful career, healthy body, give full play to their potential, life must have a target to pursue, in the field of professional to make, has obtained the widespread recognition and respect, contributes to the society, doing what I love...

  Each of us has our own definition of success. Everyone's concept of success is different, because everyone's personal experience, values and understanding of life is different. And success really, presumably to vary from person to person, we all want to find their own specific success criteria.

  We are in different ages have different success criteria: school, looking for a job, marriage, career, education child... Confucius is planning out of the different phase of the mission: thirtysomething, at forty, fifty around 50, 60 sixties, seventy and that we do not over torque.

  I used to the success of the concept is: as far as possible for more people to have a good influence. The more the better, the greater the influence degree, the better. I think so from the very early, I also know it is totally out of the needs of the self ***ego***. When very young I have been a TV show, also worked as a host. Many years later, I worked as a teacher. I found that when the teacher can more intuitively felt himself to others, and this influence is more far-reaching, it feels much better than when the host in the entertainment.

  I also think writing a book can influence a lot of people, so she wrote a book. Soon found, of course, how many people can influence depends on how your book sales, whether or not you will. I think that movies can also affect many people, so further studied film in foreign countries, and also try to write a movie.

  In a word, think of oneself do will affect a lot of people, feel good and feel great.

  Then I think there are some changes.

  A friend of mine, forty years old, work down, don't have a girlfriend, the mood is very low. I told him that you are not as you think it is not successful.

  Because I think some than he appeared to be mixed well people around you, in case of a little setback, can't show the abnormal calm, easy to collapse. Such a ratio, with a sense of failure that front friend to talk to me quietly, also not too failed.

  So I found that if the external alone a variety of labels, we basically can't see who is more successful who don't. The key is to see a person's heart.

  To detect whether a person is not difficult to success. Each of us can suppose: forty years old, and you didn't work or low income, no boyfriend or girlfriend, inferior position, in short, you don't have your age should be all. So, how would you feel? What state?

  So you can know how successful it himself.

  Secular meaning, in my opinion, the true success is not a successful career, also is not to let yourself up to influence more people. Successful people is not successful? Have a plenty of, some not. We know there are a lot of successful people, every day still lives in nervous, nervous, heart was filled with envy, emotions, such as anxiety, resentment, insecurity, such a successful person nature is not really successful.

  While many humble person that is not successful. Our village has a cleaning aunt, every time I see my child and I, are extremely brilliant of smiling face talk with us. Two days ago, we met her in the fruit store. She bought a pocket apricot, just go off work, see us, immediately take out a few apricot, have to give the child. Now think about it, I think she is a pretty successful people!

  Ordinary successful people like this everywhere around us!

  With my standard, a truly successful person is not just to see him make much contribution to the society, but also see his inner state: if he can even in the case of nothing at all, can still feel good to oneself, still have safe feeling, can happy, balance, positive, can not mad, can keep a variety of styles, due to be elegant, can appreciate beauty, can have the power of humor, and can continue to care for others and for others.

  True personal sense of success is not measured by money and fame, but look at how your heart to the science of uniting the realm. Because even worldly success, its ultimate objective is to get money, status and reputation, and so on security, respect, confidence, and all kinds of psychological balance and contentment. The problem is, use foreign things to achieve the balance of inner state, this method is laborious and unreliable. These traps, once you get, or got lost again, or get the always worries afraid to lose, then you can reach your peace of mind. So, this success is surface, temporary and precarious, it almost is not successful, at best just play well as a game.

  Real success is not afraid of the stock market ups and downs and the economic crisis, is not afraid of being exposed, not trend change and not decent, not afraid of the public whether to buy it. Because real success in your heart, who is also don't go away.

  Speaking of which, I was reminded of a lot of the old saying: "eagerness," not pleased by external gains, not saddened by personal losses ", "no money and rank can't confuse,"... I was reminded of the Chinese ancient people depicted the gentleman, the sages of the standard, it is often considered pedantic by us, is the feudal rulers used to fool the people, by the sociologist Max. Weber called "only aesthetic significance of idealism" standards.

  I think, this gentleman, sage standards, compared with the standard of a successful career, now closer to the real definition of success.

  Write this, want to talk about my father.

  My dad in this life is to achieve the success of the secular meaning: put ZhuWa from rural areas, to retire, a professor at the university, the head of the department of Chinese literature. During this time he made many contributions to Chinese literature. Chinese literature is a everyone being active, not too good management institution. Some teachers say, as long as your dad sit in the office, everyone was a bottom. At home, he got up early to cook, almost every day is a very hard-working, family-orientated, temper and a good husband and daddy.

  I want to say is not the success.

  Now think about, about father Parkinson's ten years old. Because parents visit to Australia ten years ago, he started writing hand shaking. A cruise ship in Australia he stand fell, we laugh at the time, now understand that Parkinson's symptoms.

  Now, he most in ability in the end, after my daughter. My daughter talk action than he offer just three years, and he can push his wheelchair, give him the fruit, and crutches, every day looking for glasses, switch the TV, also often learn the appearance of the kindergarten teacher to give him a "class".

  Dad action with difficulty, to the chair need our scheduling command, slowly as the spacecraft in the butt. Up and down the stairs is very breathtaking, I should say that this is a small step, a giant leap for mankind. Constipation is also very serious. Mother said that children are better than others you this time.

  Mom is quick temper, and she is 75 years old, the body inevitably nag bad complaints. The nanny is blunter, loud, sometimes nasty also loudly said his two sentences. Every day I busy with children, or to do your own thing, the father often ignored, sometimes impatient.

  And dad silently under all this: physical and psychological. He never complain, don't angry, not pessimistic. Sat uncomfortable, I have to frown. Good, we kindly looking at us. He CARES about current affairs, everyone concerned about home. He always tries to help us, but in the end is always help the pour, has been said. He did not talk much, but often the astonishing. Yesterday my mother go to the morning market to buy his love to eat corn. To eat him, and asked him: "corn?" Dad said: "not as good as his wife."

  Most of the time, looking at his crutches constantly shaking, looking at him hard to every step, it gives birth to great respect in my heart.

  Holding him, sometimes unconsciously into his world, empathy, to experience his every move, think of him every moment need to mobilize the courage and strength, is often affected by shock. If I want to shoot a film of his life, it can shock a lot of people!

  I have told my dad, you in my life all the knowledge is not for other, just to let you can gracefully with Parkinson's disease now fight!

  Said earlier, success is in the case of nothing can still live gracefully. What is nothing compared to my father. When a man almost cannot provide for oneself, if you still to be elegant, that is the biggest success!

  The master said, and placing is not more than seventy. That is to say, to seventy, we should be able to uniting the real good his own heart. So look, dad has done the standard of Confucius.

  Later I told dad, the evaluation of slowly, he answered: "say so wrong." I asked why, think what I missed or wrong. He said: "there is no do it."

  Finally want to quote a I really like the definition of success.

  American litterateur, thinker Emerson says: can often laugh and heart full of love. To get the respect of the wise and children alike; To win sincere praise of critics and can stand the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty; To see the good in people; Can pay myself. A little can make the world a better place, whether by a healthy child, a garden path, or a by you and improve social conditions; Great enthusiasm to play, laugh, sing; Even if only a life because you can know the existence of and breathing a little easier - this, is a success.

  譯文:

  們可以列出一大堆關於成功的標準:家庭幸福、事業有成、身體健康、充分發揮了自己的潛力、生活得有目標有追求、在專業領域有所造就、取得了廣泛的認可和尊重、對社會有貢獻、做自己喜歡的事……

  我們每個人都有自己對成功的定義。每個人的成功概念都不盡相同,因為大家的個人經歷、價值觀和對生活的認識都不同。而成功大概也真的要因人而異,我們都要自己去尋找自己的具體的成功標準。

  我們在不同的年齡段也有不同的成功標準:學業、找工作、婚戀、事業、教育孩子……孔子就規劃出了不同階段的不同任務:三十而立、四十不惑、五十知天命、六十耳順、七十而從心所欲不逾矩。

  我過去的成功概念是:要儘可能對更多的人有好的影響。影響的人越多越好,影響程度越大越好。我從很早就這樣想,我也很清楚這完全是出於自我***ego***的需要。在很年輕的時候我做過電視節目,還當過主持人。很多年後,我當過教師。我發現當老師能更直觀地感受到自己給他人帶來的影響,而且這影響也更深遠,這感覺比當主持人在那娛樂大家要好很多。

  我還認為寫書能影響很多人,所以寫過書。當然很快發現能影響多少人取決於你的書銷量如何,你是否會炒作。我還認為電影能影響很多人,所以在國外進一步學了電影,也嘗試去寫電影。

  總之,想到自己做的事情將會影響很多人,就感覺很爽,覺得自己很了不起。

  後來我的想法有了一些變化。

  我的一個朋友,四十歲了,工作失意,沒有女朋友,情緒很低落。我跟他說你不見得像你以為的那樣不成功。

  因為我想到周圍一些貌似比他混得好的人,在遇到一點挫折時,就表現出異常的不平靜,極易崩潰。這麼一比,前面那個有失敗感的朋友能平靜地跟我談話,也就不算太失敗。

  所以我發現,如果單憑外在的種種標籤,我們基本上看不出來誰更成功誰不成功。關鍵是看一個人的內心。

  要檢測一個人是否成功並不難。我們每個人都可以假設一下:你四十歲,沒工作或者職位卑微收入微薄、沒男友或女友,總之,你沒有你這個年齡的人應該有的一切。那麼,你會是什麼感覺?什麼狀態?

  這樣你就可以知道自己究竟有多成功了。

  在我看來,真正的成功並非世俗含義的事業有成,也不是為了讓自我膨脹起來而去影響更多人。事業有成的人算不算成功?有的是,有的不是。我們知道有很多事業有成的人,每天依舊生活在惴惴不安、憂慮重重之中,內心充滿了嫉妒、焦慮、忿忿不平、不安全感等情緒,這樣的成功人士自然不是真正成功的人。

  而很多地位卑微的人也不見得就是不成功的。我們小區有個保潔阿姨,每次見到我和孩子,都以極其燦爛的笑容跟我們說話。前兩天,我們在水果店碰到她。她剛下班,買了一兜杏,看到我們,馬上掏出幾個杏,非要給孩子。現在想想,我覺得她是個挺成功的人!

  我們身邊這樣的平凡的成功人士隨處可見!

  以我的標準,一個真正成功的人不僅僅看他對社會做出多大貢獻,同時也看他內心的狀態:他能否即便在一無所有的情況下,仍然能對自己感覺不錯,仍有安全感,能開心、平衡、積極,能不抓狂,能保持應有的種種風格,能優雅得起來,能欣賞美,能有幽默的力量,並能繼續關心他人、為他人付出。

  真正的個人意義上的成功不以金錢和名氣來衡量,而是看你的心靈脩煉到了怎樣的境界。因為即便是世俗的成功,其最終目標也還是以金錢、地位和名氣等等來換得安全感、尊重、自信,以及心理上的種種平衡和滿足。而問題是,用外來的東西去達到內心的平衡狀態,這種方法又費力又不可靠。這些身外之物,一旦你得不到,或者得到了又失去,或者得到了又時時憂慮害怕失去,那你都無法達到內心的平和。所以,這樣的成功是表面的、一時的、岌岌可危的,也就幾乎算不上是成功了,充其量只是玩好了某一樣遊戲而已。

  真正的成功是不怕股市起落和經濟危機、不怕被人曝光、不怕潮流變遷、不怕行業體面與否、不怕大眾是否買賬。因為真正的成功在你的心裡,是誰也奪不走的。

  說到這,我想起了很多古老的說法:“安貧樂道”、“不以物喜,不以己悲”、“富貴不能淫,貧賤不能移”……我想起了中國古人所描繪的君子、聖賢的標準,這常常被我們認為是迂腐的、是封建統治者用來愚昧百姓的、被社會學家馬克斯.韋伯稱為“只有審美意義的理想主義”的標準。

  我認為,這個君子、聖賢的標準,比起現在事業有成的標準,更接近真正的成功的定義。

  寫到這,想講講我的父親。

  我爸爸這輩子已經算是達到了世俗含義的成功了:從農村的放豬娃,到退休時的大學教授、中文系系主任。這期間他為中文系做出了許多貢獻。中文系是個人人都思想活躍,不太好管理的機構。有的老師說,只要你爸在辦公室裡坐著,大家心裡就有底了。在家裡,他幾乎天天起早做飯,是個很勤勞、很顧家、脾氣又好的丈夫和爸爸。

  我要說的不是這些成功。

  現在想想,大概父親患帕金森已有十年曆史了。因為十年前父母去澳洲遊玩時,他寫字就開始手抖。一次在澳洲的遊船上他站不穩摔倒了,當時我們一笑了之,現在明白那就是帕金森症狀。

  現在家裡面,他在能力上排在最後,在我女兒之後。我女兒說話行動都比他利索,剛三歲就能推動他的輪椅,每天給他遞水果、拿柺杖、找眼鏡、開關電視,還常學幼兒園老師的樣子給他“上課”。

  爸爸行動很吃力,往椅子上坐需要我們指揮排程,緩慢得像太空船在對接。上下樓梯很驚險,我說這是你的一小步,人類的一大步。便祕也很嚴重。媽媽說別人生孩子都比你這痛快。

  媽媽是急性子,自己也75歲了,身體不好時難免會嘮叨抱怨。保姆是個直率的人,大嗓門,有時急了也大聲說他兩句。我每天忙著孩子,或是忙自己的事,對爸爸常常忽視,有時也沒耐心。

  而爸爸就默默地承受著這一切:身體上的、心理上的。他從不抱怨、不發火、不悲觀。不舒服時,就眉頭緊鎖地坐著。好一些時,就慈祥地看著我們。他關心時事、關心家裡的每個人。他常試圖幫我們,但最後總是幫了倒忙,又被說一頓。他說話不多,但常常語出驚人。昨天媽媽去早市買了他愛吃的玉米。給他吃了,問他:“包米好不好?”爸爸說:“沒有老伴好。”

  很多時候,看著他的柺杖在不停地顫抖,看著他艱難地邁出每一步,我心裡就生出無比的敬意。

  有時扶著他時,不知不覺進入他的世界,感同身受去體驗他的每一個舉動,想想他每時每刻需要調動的勇氣和力量,常常很受震撼。我想如果拍一部他的生活的電影,那一定能震撼很多人!

  我曾跟爸爸說過,你這輩子所有的這些學問不為別的,就為了讓你現在能優雅地跟帕金森作鬥爭!

  前面說過,成功就是在一無所有的情況下仍能優雅地生活。跟我父親相比,一無所有算什麼。當一個人幾乎不能自理時,如果仍能優雅得起來,那才是最大的成功!

  孔子說,七十而從心所欲不逾矩。就是說,到了七十歲,我們應該能真正修煉好了自己的內心。這麼看,爸爸已經做到了孔老夫子的標準。

  後來我把這個評價告訴了爸爸,他緩慢地回答:“這樣說不對。”我問為什麼,以為我遺漏了或弄錯了什麼。他說:“沒有做到。”

  最後想引用一個我很喜歡的成功的定義。

  美國文學家、思想家愛默生這樣說:能夠時常大笑並且心中充滿愛;能得到智者的尊重和兒童的喜愛;能贏得真誠的評論家的讚許並能忍受虛假的朋友的背叛;能欣賞美;能看到他人的優點;能付出自己;能把世界變得更好一點——不論是以一個健康的孩子、一個花園小路、還是一個由你而得到改善的社會狀況;能以無比的熱情玩過、笑過、歌唱過;能知道哪怕只有一個生命因為你的存在而呼吸得更容易一些——這,就是成功了。
