★“It was right then that I started to think about Tomas Jefferson……in the Decoration of Independence……in the part about our right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I remember thinking, how did he know……to put the pursuit part in there? And maybe happiness is something that……you can only pursue. And maybe we can actually……never have it. No matter what, how did he know that?”
(那时候我突然想起了托马斯杰斐逊。独立宣言中,关于我们的生活自由以及追求幸福的那章节:幸福自己会来敲门,生活也能得到解脱。我一直在思考这么个问题,他如何知道把“追求幸福”包括其中?也许幸福这玩意儿你怎么也追不到,其实我也许从来都没有追到过它。无论如何,他是怎么知道的?)
幸福不会自己来敲门,所以把“The Pursuit of Happyness”翻成“当幸福来敲门”,就像把客体当成了主题,不怎么恰当。
在生活中我们会迷茫,并会不断的质疑自己,就像Chris所说的“也许你只能追求幸福,但不可能拥有幸福。”
★“Can I say something? Emmm……I’m a type of person: If you ask me question and I don’t know the answer, I mainly tell you that I don’t know. But I bet you what, I know how to find the answer and I will FIND the answer.”
(可以再说几句吗?我……我是这样一种人:你向我提问题,如果我不能答上来,我就会告诉你“我不知道”。但我可以保证,我清楚我能找到答案,我会找到答案的!)
面试的时候用得着,呵呵。这部影片除了讲述一个感人的故事,或许还给我们透露了一点与客户打交道的技巧和做生意人的道理。
★“Hey……don’t ever let somebody tell you, you can’t do some……not even me, all right? You gonna a dream, you gonna protect it. People can’t do some themselves they want to tell you ‘you can’t do it’. You want some, go get it.”
(嗨,别让人家跟你说“你成不了大器”,即使我也不行,好吗?你有梦想的话,你就得保护它。那些自己没有成才的人会说你也不能成才。你想要什么的话,就得去努力得到。)
Chris在和儿子打球时对他说的话,语重心长。父亲的这番话会让Christopher终身受益。
★“Some of you guys are here because you know somebody. Some of you guys are here because you think you’re somebody. There’s one guy here who’s gonna be SOMEBODY.”
(在座的有些人是靠认识些人物,有些人是靠觉得自己是个人物,只有一个人能最终获胜。)
人类的生存准则,或者说职场的优胜劣汰。在同你一起竞争的人群中,有人靠人脉,有人靠自信,但只有一个人最终能够获胜。
★“It was simple. X number of calls equals x number of prospects. X number of prospects equals x number of customers. X number of customers equals x number of dollars in the company’s pocket.”
(其实很简单,有打多少电话,就有多少潜在顾客;有多少潜在顾客,就有多少实际顾客;有多少实际顾客,就有多少公司的收入。)
似乎是所有公司实习生所要面临的挑战。碰巧我在看电影的时候也有人打电话来推销。拿起听筒,他们要把自己当作上帝的仆人;敲开大门,他们要永远保持微笑。一切冷言、拒绝、失败,都要用“心”来承受。想到有一天我也许会成为他们中的一员,我便客气的回绝了那通电话。
