生而为赢
荷叶/译
每个人生来都是新鲜的，是以前从没有存在过的一样东西。每个人生来都有赢得人生的能力。每个人都有一种独特的方式去观察，去倾听，去触摸，去品尝，去思考。每个人都有他独特的潜力，有能力也有局限。每个人都能成为一个有影响力，有思维，有意识，有创造的人，成为一个产出丰富的人，一个赢家。
赢家和输家都有很多含义。我们所指的赢家并不是令别人输的人。对于我们，赢家无论是作为个人或社会一分子，都应该是那些以可以接受，值得信赖，积极热情，真诚实在的方式回应社会的人。
赢家并不把自己的一生致力于一个想象应该如此的理念，而是他们很本色，因此他们不利用敌人去演戏，去伪装，去操纵别人。他们知道真爱和装爱，真蠢和装蠢，真知和卖弄之间的不同。赢家不需要躲藏在面具后面。
赢家做自己想做的事情，有自己的真知灼见。他们能从观点中分出事实，并不假装知道一切答案。他们倾听别人的意见，评估他们所说，但得出自己的结论。虽然赢家钦佩别人，尊重别人，但他们并不被别人的观点所限制，所推翻，所约束而对他们心生敬畏。
赢家既不表演无助，也不求全责备。相反，他们为自己的一生负责。他们并不以虚假的权力高高在上。赢家知道他们是自己的老板。
赢家知道要选准时机，掌握火候，以恰当的方式应对外界。他们的应对策略应与所收到的信息相关，要维护相关人的影响，价值，康乐和尊严。赢家懂得万物皆有时令，万事皆有时机。
赢家可以尽情享受，也可以推迟享受，眼下约束自己，以期将来享受更多。赢家不怕追求自己想要的，但他们用适应的方式。赢家并不靠控制别人而获得自己的安全感。他们会使自己立于不败之地。
赢家关心世界关心人民。他们不脱离社会问题，而是有兴趣，有热情地致力于改善生活质量。即使面临世界危机民族存亡，赢家也不会把自己看成一个无助的个体。赢家会努力让世界变得更美好。

Born to Win
Each human being is born as something new, something that never existed before. Each is born with the capacity to win at life. Each person has a unique way of seeing, hearing, touching, tasting and thinking. Each has his or her own unique potentials---capabilities and limitations. Each can be a significant, thinking, aware, and creative being---a productive person, a winner.
The word “winner” and “loser” have many meanings. When we refer to a person as a winner, we do not mean one who makes someone else lose. To us, a winner is one who responds authentically by being credible, trustworthy, responsive, and genuine, both as an individual and as a member of a society.
Winners do not dedicated their lives to a concept of what they imagine they should be; rather, they are themselves and as such do not use their energy putting on a performance, maintaining pretence and manipulating others. They are aware that there is a difference between being loving and acting loving, between being stupid and acting stupid, between being knowledgeable and acting knowledgeable. Winners do not need to hide behind a mask.
Winners are not afraid to do their own thinking and to use their own knowledge. They can separate facts from opinions and don’t pretend to have all the answers. They listen to others, evaluate what they say, but come to their own conclusions. Although winners can admire and respect other people, they are not totally defined, demolished, bound, or awed by them.
Winners do not play “helpless”, nor do they play the blaming game. Instead, they assume responsibility for their own lives. They don’t give others a false authority over them. Winners are their own bosses and know it.
A winner’s timing is right. Winners respond appropriately to the situation. Their responses are related to the message sent and preserve the significance, worth, well-being, and dignity of the people involved. Winners know that for everything there is a season and for every activity a time.
Although winners can freely enjoy themselves, they can also postpone enjoyment, can discipline themselves in the present to enhance their enjoyment in the future. Winners are not afraid to go after what he wants, but they do so in proper ways. Winners do not get their security by controlling others. They do not set themselves up to lose.
A winner cares about the world and its peoples. A winner is not isolated from the general problems of society, but is concerned, compassionate, and committed to improving the quality of life. Even in the face of national and international adversity, a winner’s self-image is not one of a powerless individual. A winner works to make the world a better place.
