我们都会经历失败,那么该如何面对失败,看看J.K Rolling怎么说。
You might never fail on the scale I did, but some failure in life is inevitable 1. It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all–in which case, you fail by default.
你们可能永远没有达到我经历的那种失败程度,但有些失败,在生活中是不可避免的。生活不可能没有一点失败,除非你生活的万般小心,而那也意味着你没有真正在生活了。无论怎样,有些失败还是注定地要发生。
Failure gave me an inner security that I had never attained 2 by passing examinations. Failure taught me things about myself that I could have learned no other way. I discovered that I had a strong will, and more discipline than I had suspected; I also found out that I had friends whose value was truly above the price of rubies 3.
失败使我的内心产生一种安全感,这是我从考试中没有得到过的。失败让我看清自己,这也是我通过其他方式无法体会的。我发现,我比自己认为的,要有更强的意志和决心。我还发现,我拥有比宝石更加珍贵的朋友。
The knowledge that you have emerged wiser and stronger from setbacks means that you are, ever after, secure in your ability to survive. You will never truly know yourself, or the strength of your relationships, until both have been tested by adversity. Such knowledge is a true gift, for all that it is painfully won, and it has been worth more to me than any qualification I ever earned.
从挫折中获得智慧、变得坚强,意味着你比以往任何时候都更有能力生存。只有在逆境来临的时候,你才会真正认识你自己,了解身边的人。这种了解是真正的财富,虽然是用痛苦换来的,但比我以前得到的任何资格证书都有用。
