“Screwing up isn’t criminal or deliberate or malevolent. But covering up is, if you get caught. And you will get caught—ask the shade of Richard Nixon. Closing down a business or going into bankruptcy is a miserable affair at any time. My advice is not to make it worse by omitting to apologize and shoulder the responsibility squarely. But don’t take it too much to heart. There’s always the chance of a comeback.”
>> How to Get Rich
“搞砸不是犯罪，也不是故意或恶意的。但掩盖是，如果你被抓住了。你会被抓住的——问问理查德·尼克松的影子。在任何时候，关闭一家企业或破产都是一件悲惨的事情。我的建议是，不要因为不道歉和直接承担责任而使事情变得更糟。但不要太在意。总会有卷土重来的机会。”

“But I will not give them a share. Not one. Not for love. Nor for loyalty. Not to be fair. Because capitalism isn’t fair. Life isn’t fair. The lottery of what genes we are born with isn’t fair. The moon and the stars and the gas clouds of Alpha Centauri aren’t fair.”
>> How to Get Rich
“但我不会给他们一份。一份也不会。不是为了爱。也不是为了忠诚。这不公平。因为资本主义不公平。生活不公平。我们生来就有什么基因的彩票是不公平的。月球、恒星和半人马座阿尔法星的气体云是不公平。”
“Ownership is not the most important thing. It is the only thing that counts. Nothing else counts in the getting of money. Shareholder thanks do not count. A good salary and a company car and health plan and pension don’t count. Most share options (usually nothing more than the promise of chickenfeed to salaried employees, and a promise broken half the time, too), don’t count. The gratitude of colleagues doesn’t count. Nothing counts but what you own in the race to get rich.”
>> How to Get Rich
“所有权不是最重要的。它是唯一重要的。在获得金钱方面，没有什么比这更重要。股东的感谢不重要。高薪、公司汽车、健康计划和养老金都不重要。大多数股票期权（通常只不过是对受薪员工的承诺，有时也会违背承诺）不重要。同事的感激不重要。除了你在致富竞赛中拥有的东西，没有什么更重要。”

Tips on negotiating:
Tips on negotiating: People use the term negotiation loosely. But negotiation is about serious, money-making or money-losing business. Discussing salary changes or quarterly goals may involve two parties talking, but it’s not a real negotiation. Real negotiations are about deals and partnerships that change everything and that can make you very rich in the process.
>> How to Get Rich
谈判技巧：人们对“谈判”一词的使用较为宽泛。但谈判是关于严肃、赚钱或赔钱的生意。讨论薪资变动或季度目标可能需要双方进行讨论，但这不是真正的谈判。真正的谈判是关于改变一切的交易和伙伴关系，这可以让你在这个过程中变得非常富有。
You have to believe in yourself, even when the little self-doubt monster pays you a visit.That's because if you don't believe you can do it, no one else will either. When you have self-belief, you can achieve pretty much anything that does not defy the laws of physics.Without it, you're burnt toast.

That with just a little further effort, the veil of failure will be torn away to reveal success.”

Talent is usually conscious of its own value. But the currency of that value is not necessarily a million-dollar salary. The opportunity to prove themselves, and sometimes the chance to run the show on a day-to-day basis, will often do the trick just as well. This holds true even if talent is placed in the driver's seat of a small division within an existing operation. What talent seeks, as often as not, is the chance to prove itself and the opportunity to excel.
>> How to Get Rich
天赋通常意识到自己的价值。但这种价值的货币不一定是一百万美元的工资。证明自己的机会，有时是每天主持节目的机会，往往也能很好地发挥作用。即使人才被安排在现有业务中的一个小部门的驾驶席上，这也是正确的。天赋所追求的，往往是证明自己的机会和脱颖而出的机会。

“Wishing for or desiring something is futile without an inner compulsion to achieve it. Such lack of compulsion, if not frankly acknowledged, can lead to great personal unhappiness. We have all met deeply unhappy souls muddling along in professions or careers for which they are patently unsuited. Worse still, by continually wishing and never delivering, you risk denting your confidence, beginning a vicious downward spiral that appears to draw misfortune like a magnet. The assumption that you might be able to achieve some goal if you only wished hard enough is not just a f***-up. It’s a potential personal tragedy.”
>> How to Get Rich
“如果没有实现某件事的内在冲动，对它的愿望或渴望是徒劳的。这种缺乏冲动，如果不坦率地承认，可能会导致巨大的个人不快乐。我们都遇到过非常不快乐的人，他们在显然不适合的职业或事业中混日子。更糟糕的是，如果不断地希望而从不实现，你就有可能削弱你的信心，开始一个恶性循环，就像磁铁一样引来不幸。如果你只希望足够努力，你可能会实现某个目标，这种假设不仅仅是一种骗局。这是一场潜在的个人悲剧。”
