Remember too, that all who succeed in life get off to a bad start. They pass through many heartbreaking struggles before they arrive. The turning point in the lives of those who succeed usually comes at the moment of some crisis – through which they are introduced to their other selves.
——Napoleon Hill
记住,所有成功的人一开始都不顺利,他们抵达成功前都历经许多令人心痛的挣扎。成功的人的人生转折点通常都是在某危机时刻 - 借由那危机,他们认识了另一个自己。
——拿破仑·希尔
