一杯香醇的文化美酒 集生活与艺术于一身 经典美文,听写——让心情舒畅! 每天上午10点准时与大家相见。 Perseverance is falling nineteen times and succeeding the twentieth. 只要坚韧不拔,成功会从第19次失败开始。 Hints: William Smithburg Tom Watson, Sr. IBM **音频中有一处语法错误,请按语法正确单词书写。**
William Smithburg, the chairman of a large food company, took responsibility for two major mistakes. He said "There isn't one manager who hasn't had a product that did badly. That includes me. It's like learning to ski. If you're not falling down, you're not learning." Tom Watson, Sr., who founded IBM and was its guiding force for over 40 years, knew the importance of learning from mistakes. A young manager at IBM took a big risk on a product, and lost over $10 million. When the nervous manager climbed up the stairs to Watson's office, the nervous manager said, "I guess you want me to quit my job?" Watson said, "You can't be serious. We've just spent $10 million educating you!" The lesson here, understood by these captains of industry, is that failure equals learning. While we can't say that they exactly welcomed failure, they were uniform in their ability to profit from it. They used the healthy energy coming from failure to reach higher goals. Almost every "false step" was regarded as an opportunity and not as the end of the world.
一家大食品公司的董事长威廉?史密斯伯格曾对两大“错误”负有责任。 他说:“每个经理都有过失败的产品。 我就是其中一位。 就好像学滑雪,如果没有摔跤,就学不会。 汤姆.沃森先生是IBM(国际商业机器公司)的创始人,并在长达40多年的时间里一直是指导该公司的最有影响力的人物,他知道从错误中汲取教训的重要性。 IBM公司的一位年轻经理在一个产品上冒了很大的风险,亏损了1000万美元。 这位紧张不安的经理爬上楼梯来到沃森的办公室,说道:“我想你是要我离职吧?” 而沃森回答说:“你不用这么紧张。 我们刚刚花了1000万美元培训你!” 此处所讲的这些工业巨头领悟到的教训就是失败等于学习。 虽然我们不能说他们就是欢迎失败,但他们都有从失败中获得教益的能力,在这一点上他们是一样的。 他们利用从失败中激发出的旺盛的活力去达到更高的目标。 几乎“走错的每一步”都被看作是一次机遇,而不是世界的末日。
