不久前，在NBA赛场上，华裔球员林书豪带领尼克斯队直取7连胜，单场个人最高搏得38分，成为世界体坛的风云人物。如果这个成绩出自乔丹、科比或者姚明，人们或许会有同样的喝彩，却难有如此的惊叹。美国总统奥巴马评价：林的成功超越了体育，林书豪的昨天、今天与明天，更可以启发人们的深度思考。
1. Believe in yourself when no one else does. Lin is only the fourth student of Harvard to enter the NBA. He’s also one of only a handful of Asian-Americans to make it. He was sent by the Knicks to play for their D-League team 3 weeks ago. He’d already been cut by two other NBA teams before joining the Knicks this year. You’ve got to believe in yourself, even when no one else does.
即使没人相信你也不能绝望。林书豪只是第四位能够进入NBA的哈佛学生。他也只是一小撮能够登陆NBA的亚裔美国人之一。在三个星期前，他还曾被尼克斯队下放到NBDL球队。在这个赛季加盟尼克斯队之前，林书豪曾被两支其他的NBA球队裁掉。即使没人相信你了，你也不能对自己绝望。
2. Seize the opportunity when it comes up. Lin got to start for the Knicks because they had no other choices. They had too many injuries. Baron Davis was gone. The other point guards were out. Carmelo Anthony was injured. Amare Stoudemire had to leave the team because of a family death. If Lin squandered(浪费) the opportunity, we would never noticed him. But he made the most of it. You never know when opportunities are going to arise(出现) in life. Make the most of them. Don’t fritter (挥霍) them away.
当机会来临时要好好把握。尼克斯队之所以让林书豪打上首发，实属无奈之举，他们的伤病球员太多了。拜伦·戴维斯一直无法上场。其他控球后卫也不能出战。卡梅罗·安东尼受伤了。阿玛雷·斯塔德迈尔因家人去世而离队奔丧。如果林书豪浪费掉这个机会，他将不会得到我们的关注，但他很好地利用了这个机会。在生活中，你从不知道机会何时会降临。尽最大限度地利用这些机会，不要挥霍掉了。
3. Your family will always support you, so don’t disappoint them. It wasn’t until a few days ago that Lin got his contract guaranteed by the Knicks. Before that, he could have been cut at any time. He had to sleep on his brother’s couch (沙发) on the Lower East Side of New York. His family always believed in him and supported him when he was about to give up. That made him continue to believe. If you want your family to believe in you like that, you’ve got to be there for them when they need it.
你的家人将一直支持你，因此你不应让他们失望。直到最近几天，林书豪才获得尼克斯队的保障性合同。在这之前，他随时都可能被裁掉。此前他只能在纽约市下东区的哥哥家睡沙发。他的家人一直都相信他，在他快要放弃的时候也给予他支持。这使他坚守自己的信念。如果你希望家人像这样支持你，你需要在适当的时候有所表现，不要让他们失望。
4. Find the system that works for your style. Lin isn’t Michael Jordan or Kobe Bryant. He’s not a pure scorer. He’s a passer and distributor—who can also score very well. It didn’t work for him in Golden State or Houston. But Mike D’Antoni’s system at the Knicks has been perfect for him to show off his strengths. You need to do your best to understand what your strengths are and then ensure that you’re in a system that is a good fit for those strengths. Otherwise, people overlook the talents you bring to the table.
寻找适合你风格的体制。林书豪不是迈克尔·乔丹或者科比·布莱恩特。他不是纯正的得分手。他是传球手和球权分配者——但也能很好的得分。他先后为金州勇士队和休斯顿火箭队效力，但那里不适合他。麦克·德安东尼在尼克斯队的体制非常适合他，能让他展现自己的优点。你应该尽最大所能去了解自己的长处，之后确保你所处的体制非常适合这些长处。否则，你所展现的才华只会被忽略。
5. Don’t overlook talent that might exist around you on your team. You probably manage people at your own company today. Are you sure you don’t have a Jeremy Lin living around you now? Don’t be like the General Managers in Golden State and Houston, and let talent slip through your fingers. With all their money, scouts (侦探), and testing, they didn’t know what they had in their hands. Do you know what your people (or even yourself) is really capable of? Take off the tainted glasses (有色眼镜) when you look at the world.
不要忽视团队里可能存在的人才。你现在可能负责管理企业内部的人员。你确定自己身边不存在林书豪这样的人才？不要像金州或者休斯顿的球队经理那样，让人才从手中溜走。尽管他们拥有资金、球探，还进行了试训，但是他们并不清楚自己手上有什么牌。你知道自己的手下（甚至你自己）真正擅长于什么吗？在观察世界的时候，请摘下你的有色眼镜。
