6 Unrealistic Expectations To Give Up If You Really Want To Be Successful

想要成功就要放弃6个不现实的期盼

1.You need to wait for the right opportunity

你需要等待合适的机会

The real truth is that nothing is ever perfect, opportunity won’t just come knocking – You have to hunt for it. Many successful people started small and mademistakes along the way.

真实的情况就是没什么是完美的，机会不会主动敲门—你得自己去寻找。许多成功人士总是从小事开始，总是从犯错开始。

2. You will be happy when you become successful

当你成功的时候会很开心

Many get it wrong with such expectations. The reality is that success is more of a journey than a destination. Happiness shouldn’t be waited for; you need to appreciate every moment of the climb to the top by building on your relationships and balancing work/personal life.

许多人都有这中错误的期盼。实际情况是：成功更多的是一段旅程，而非目的地。幸福不应该被等待，你得珍惜通过建立感情，平衡工作和生活，爬到顶点的每一个时刻。

3. You can succeed on your own

你可以依靠自己成功

Success is not achieved independently. Many successful people have mentors and a support group of people who contribute to their success.

成功不会自然出现。许多成功人士有导师或者一大群对他们成功有帮助的人。

4. You define making money as success

你将赚钱视为成功

The truth is that money is a powerful motivator – Yet money could make you bankrupt on other aspects of your life. It is better to see or view success making a contribution or adding value.

事实上，金钱是一种很有力的动因---但是金钱会让你生活的其他方面透支。更好的情况是将成功视为取得进步或者提升价值的方法。

5. You need a lot of time to attain success

你需要许多时间才能获得成功

Many people want success fast. The truth is that success needs no lucky breaks but consistent effort daily, monthly and yearly.

许多人都想很快的获得成功。事实上，成功需要的不是一时的幸运而是每一天，每一月，每一年不断的努力。

6. You will attain success at your first try

一次尝试之后就会获得成功

No one gets it the first time. Successful people fail and they keep trying until they succeed. Failure plays a key role to success.

没人能经过一次尝试就能成功。成功的人会经历失败，他们一直尝试直到成功。失败是取得成功的关键。
