重新打開這本書的前一天，剛剛看了金星秀的三個(gè)采訪嫉柴，分別是馮小剛厌杜、毛阿敏和劉曉慶。三個(gè)人的風(fēng)格完全不同计螺，其中印象最深的是劉曉慶說：我所得到的一切夯尽，都是靠我自己的雙手打拼出來的。喜歡她的人和不喜歡她的人可能一樣多登馒，但是不管是誰匙握，估計(jì)都得為她的頑強(qiáng)肅然起敬。如果你的人生同樣面對(duì)這么多起伏陈轿，你還會(huì)是現(xiàn)在的樣子么圈纺？
然后第二天，準(zhǔn)備整理Tools of Titans的讀書筆記麦射，重新讀了一遍施瓦辛格寫的序蛾娶，忽然覺得他寫得真好，比我第一遍以為的更好潜秋。
之前的時(shí)候我一直告訴自己要接著翻譯《經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)人》不能有始無終蛔琅，但是看來看去，始終覺得喜歡不起來峻呛。我好像罗售，相對(duì)于觀點(diǎn)和知識(shí)，對(duì)人更感興趣钩述。那么寨躁，就先翻我喜歡的覺得有意義的內(nèi)容吧。
以下內(nèi)容翻譯自Tim Ferris的書：Tools of Titans切距。
我不是一個(gè)自力更生的人朽缎。
每次我在商務(wù)會(huì)議上演講，或者給學(xué)生們講話谜悟，或者在Reddit AMA上接受網(wǎng)友提問時(shí)，有人會(huì)說：
州長(zhǎng)/施瓦辛格/阿諾德/阿尼/施瓦茲/Schnitzel（炸豬排）（具體得看我到底在哪里）北秽，作為一個(gè)自力更生白手起家的人葡幸，你成功的藍(lán)圖是什么？
當(dāng)我感謝他們的夸獎(jiǎng)但是回答“我不是一個(gè)自力更生的人贺氓，我得到了很多幫助”的時(shí)候蔚叨，他們總是非常驚訝。
確實(shí)，我在奧地利長(zhǎng)大時(shí)并沒有多少渠道蔑水。確實(shí)邢锯，我只身帶著一個(gè)運(yùn)動(dòng)包，獨(dú)自前往美國(guó)搀别。以及丹擎，在電影《野蠻人柯南》中揮劍主演之前，我確實(shí)當(dāng)過建筑工人歇父，并通過投資房地產(chǎn)成為了百萬富翁蒂培。
但是，自力更生卻不是真的榜苫。和大家一樣护戳，我能夠到達(dá)我現(xiàn)在所在，是因?yàn)檎驹诹司奕说募绨蛏稀?/p>
我的生活基于父母垂睬、教練媳荒、老師們打下的基礎(chǔ)，基于那些借給我長(zhǎng)椅或體育館后面的房間讓我睡覺的友善的靈魂驹饺，基于那些從雜志頁面上鼓勵(lì)我的偶像（以及钳枕，隨著我生活的變化，在私交上鼓勵(lì)我）逻淌。
我胸懷大志并且滿懷熱情么伯。但是，如果沒有我母親幫我檢查作業(yè)（并在我不愿學(xué)習(xí)的時(shí)候揍我）卡儒，沒有我的父親告訴我要”有用”田柔，沒有老師們解釋給我聽如何推銷，或沒有教練們教會(huì)我舉重的關(guān)鍵骨望，我不可能做成任何事情硬爆。
如果我從未在一本雜志的封面上看到Reg Park，并讀了他從環(huán)球先生轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)榇笃聊簧系拇罅κ康奈恼伦嚎模铱赡苓€在奧地利的阿爾卑斯山附近游蕩。我知道我想離開奧地利劣光，我也知道美國(guó)正是我心心向往的地方袜蚕，但是Reg為我添了一把火，給了我一個(gè)藍(lán)圖绢涡。
喬·韋德將我?guī)У矫绹?guó)并安排在他的羽翼下牲剃，他提升了我的健身事業(yè)并教會(huì)我做生意。露茜·鮑爾為我提供了一個(gè)巨大的機(jī)會(huì)雄可，邀請(qǐng)我在一個(gè)特輯中擔(dān)任嘉賓凿傅，而這是我在好萊塢的第一個(gè)重大突破缠犀。在2003年，沒有420萬加利福尼亞公民的幫助聪舒，我不可能被選為加州州長(zhǎng)辨液。
所以我怎么能說我是自力更生的？如果我這么認(rèn)為箱残，會(huì)讓每個(gè)幫助我的人滔迈、每條成就我的建議失去光彩。并且這樣會(huì)給人一種錯(cuò)誤的印象---認(rèn)為你可以一個(gè)人做成所有事情疚宇。
我并不能亡鼠。而很有可能，你也不能敷待。
我們都需要加油间涵。沒有別人的幫助、建議和鼓舞榜揖，思想的齒輪會(huì)停止運(yùn)轉(zhuǎn)勾哩，而我們困頓無處可去。
我很幸運(yùn)举哟，在人生的每個(gè)階段都能找到導(dǎo)師和偶像思劳，并有幸見到其中的很多位。從喬·韋德到納爾遜·曼德拉妨猩，從米哈伊爾·戈?duì)柊蛦谭虻侥潞蹦隆ぐ⒗锴迸眩瑥陌驳稀の只魻柕絾讨巍ず詹亍の挚恕げ际玻ɡ喜际玻覐膩聿粫?huì)羞于向他人汲取智慧壶硅，來為我的生活添把火威兜。
你們可能聽過Tim的podcast。（我特別推薦那個(gè)有奧地利口音的迷人的健身教練的那一期庐椒。）他用他的平臺(tái)為你帶來商業(yè)椒舵、娛樂、體育各個(gè)不同領(lǐng)域的人物的智慧约谈。我敢打賭你會(huì)從他們那里學(xué)到一些東西---而且笔宿，我賭你經(jīng)常會(huì)學(xué)到比期望得更多的東西。
不管是清晨慣例棱诱，心理學(xué)或訓(xùn)練的技巧泼橘，還是只是讓你度過一天的動(dòng)力，這個(gè)地球上沒有一個(gè)人可以完全不受惠于外部幫助迈勋。
我總是把這世界當(dāng)成是我的教室侥加，從中吸取教訓(xùn)和故事，助我在自己的道路上前行粪躬。我希望你也可以做同樣的事担败。
最糟糕的就是你認(rèn)為自己知道的已經(jīng)夠多了。
不要停止學(xué)習(xí)镰官。永遠(yuǎn)不要提前。
也許這也是你為什么買這本書的原因。你知道不管何時(shí)何處泳唠，生活中總會(huì)有一些時(shí)刻你需要外部的激勵(lì)和洞察狈网。總有時(shí)候你自己找不到答案笨腥，或者沒有動(dòng)力拓哺，然后被迫去超越你自己。
你可以承認(rèn)你沒法獨(dú)自完成脖母。當(dāng)然我也不能士鸥。沒有人能夠。
現(xiàn)在谆级，翻開書烤礁，開始學(xué)點(diǎn)什么吧。
—阿諾德·施瓦辛格
原文如下：
I am not a self-made man.
Every time I give a speech at a business conference, or speak to college students, or do a Reddit?AMA, someone says it.
“ Governor/Governator/Arnold/Arnie/Schwarzie/Schnitzel (depending on where I am), as a selfmade man, what’s your blueprint for success?”
They’re always shocked when I thank them for the compliment but say, “ I am not a self-made?man. I got a lot of help.”
It is true that I grew up in Austria without plumbing. It is true that I moved to America alone?with just a gym bag. And it is true that I worked as a bricklayer and invested in real estate to?become a millionaire before I ever swung the sword in Conan the Barbarian.
But it is not true that I am self-made. Like everyone, to get to where I am, I stood on the?shoulders of giants.
My life was built on a foundation of parents, coaches, and teachers; of kind souls who lent?couches or gym back rooms where I could sleep; of mentors who shared wisdom and advice; of idols?who motivated me from the pages of magazines (and, as my life grew, from personal interaction).
I had a big vision, and I had fire in my belly. But I would never have gotten anywhere without?my mother helping me with my homework (and smacking me when I wasn’t ready to study),?without my father telling me to “ be useful,” without teachers who explained how to sell, or without?coaches who taught me the fundamentals of weight lifting.
If I had never seen a magazine with Reg Park on the cover and read about his transition from Mr.?Universe to playing Hercules on the big screen, I might still be yodeling in the Austrian Alps. I?knew I wanted to leave Austria, and I knew that America was exactly where I belonged, but Reg put?fuel on the fire and gave me my blueprint.
Joe Weider brought me to America and took me under his wing, promoting my bodybuilding?career and teaching me about business. Lucille Ball took a huge chance and called me to guest star?in a special that was my first big break in Hollywood. And in 2003, without the help of 4,206,284?Californians, I would never have been elected Governor of the great state of California.
So how can I ever claim to be self-made? To accept that mantle discounts every person and every?piece of advice that got me here. And it gives the wrong impression—that you can do it alone.
I couldn’t. And odds are, you can’t either.
We all need fuel. Without the assistance, advice, and inspiration of others, the gears of our mind?grind to a halt, and we’re stuck with nowhere to go.
I have been blessed to find mentors and idols at every step of my life, and I’ve been lucky to meet?many of them. From Joe Weider to Nelson Mandela, from Mikhail Gorbachev to Muhammad Ali,?from Andy Warhol to George H.W. Bush, I have never been shy about seeking wisdom from others?to pour fuel on my fire.
You have probably listened to Tim’s podcasts. (I particularly recommend the one with the?charming bodybuilder with the Austrian accent.) He has used his platform to bring you the wisdom?of a diverse cast of characters in business, entertainment, and sports. I bet you’ve learned something?from them—and oftentimes, I bet you picked up something you didn’t expect.
Whether it’s a morning routine, or a philosophy or training tip, or just motivation to get through?your day, there isn’t a person on this planet who doesn’t benefit from a little outside help.
I’ve always treated the world as my classroom, soaking up lessons and stories to fuel my path?forward. I hope you do the same.
The worst thing you can ever do is think that you know enough.
Never stop learning. Ever.
That’s why you bought this book. You know that wherever you are in life, there will be?moments when you need outside motivation and insight. There will be times when you don’t have?the answer, or the drive, and you’re forced to look beyond yourself.
You can admit that you can’t do it alone. I certainly can’t. No one can.
Now, turn the page and learn something.
