 6.  Allocate the time required. 6.分配所需的时间。

Your next step is to block out the time necessary each day to work your plan. 下一步是概略画出每天必要的时间以完成你的计划。
If you are like most people (and that includes me), you will need to give something up that’s less important so you have the time to achieve what’s more important. 如果你像大多数人(包括我),你需要放弃一些不那么重要的事,以至于你有时间来实现更重要的。
Blocking out time each day to work your plan is vital.  Success comes from consistent daily action! 概略画出时间，做好每天工作计划是至关重要的。成功来自于始终如一的日常行动!
7.  Get started. 7.开始行动
Once you have learned what you need to know, divided your plan into daily activities, and blocked out time each day to do the assigned tasks, it’s time to Work Your Plan. 一旦你知道了你需要知道的,把你的计划划分为日常活动,每天概略画出日常必要的时间，完成分配的任务,是时候来完成你的计划了。
Start tomorrow! When the time you’ve blocked out arrives, push yourself to do what you know you should do without any further delay. 从明天开始!当有事情阻止你通行计划的时候,强迫自己去做，你知道你应该做的事情，不要有任何进一步的延迟。
It’s time for action. You could continue to study dozens of books, listen to CDs, and interview successful people (all helpful), but the greatest, most practical knowledge comes from implementing what you’ve learned. 是行动的时候了。你可以继续学习很多书,听cd,和成功的人面谈(所有有用的),但是最伟大的,最实用的知识来自你学过的东西的贯彻和执行。

Your odds of achieving your goals dramatically improve when you follow a logical process of making your decisions, both big and small. 当你跟从做决策的逻辑过程,或大或小，你实现你的目标的几率大大提高,
With each decision you make, consider all your options; write down the pros and cons of each option.  From there, the right decision is usually obvious. 你做每个决定,考虑所有的选项;写下每个选项的优点和缺点。从那里，正确的决定通常是显而易见的。
9.  Refuse to allow excuses. 9.拒绝借口。
The No.1 reason people fail to achieve their goals is because they allow themselves to make excuses for not doing what they know they should do. 人们无法实现他们的目标的第一原因是,因为他们让自己找借口，不做他们知道他们应该做的事。
One of the most crucial keys to success is doing what you know you should do, every day, even when you don’t feel like doing it. 成功最重要的关键之一是做你知道你应该做的,每一天,即使你不喜欢这么做。
This means NEVER allowing yourself to justify not doing what you know you should do. Make a commitment that you will not make excuses under any circumstances! 这意味着永远不会允许自己替自己辩护，为那些你没做而你知道你应该做的事。做下承诺,你不会在任何情况下找借口!
10.  Strive for excellence. 10.追求卓越。
The No.1 key to my success over the last 31 years is that I have always strived (and I still strive) for excellence in whatever I do. 我过去31年的成功，第一关键是,无论我做什么，我一直追求卓越(我仍然努力)。

If you will take the time to study each of the above tips and the corresponding lesson highlighted in many of them, you will significantly increase your odds of achieving your goals. 如果你愿意花时间去研究以上每一个建议，以及相应的课中强调的,将大大增加实现达成目标的机会。

If you’re like most people (and that includes me), you will go through periods of discouragement and disappointment. That’s normal. 如果你像大多数人一样(包括我),你将经历一段时期的挫折和失望。这是很正常的。
When you get down, remember “Quitters never win and Winners never quit. 当你沮丧了,请记住“放弃的人永不成功,成功者永不放弃。”
