1.自由是我們控制自己人生的權利,為理想而努力的權利,做出成績的權利,並幫助我們的孩子成為更優秀的人的權利。
"Freedom is the right to control our own lives, the right to strive for our dreams, the right to achieve success, and the right to help our children become better individuals."
2.與家人相處的時間、真正教育子女的時間、與子女溝通的時間、與孩子一起做他們渴望做的事情的時間,是不可以被取代的。
"Time spent with family, time for truly educating our children, time for communicating with them, and time for doing what they long to do with us are irreplaceable."
3.沒有任何一種良藥比希望更有效,它能產生強大的激勵和動力:改善生活品質的希望,獲得晉升的希望,拓展業務的希望,都是我們事業成功的精髓。
"No medicine is more effective than hope. It generates powerful motivation and drive: the hope of improving quality of life, the hope of career advancement, and the hope of business expansion—all of which are the essence of our success."
4.經濟刺激非常有效,但並非是激勵方式。認同感和滿足感也很有效,實現理想就是一種自我獎賞。
"Economic incentives can be effective, but they are not true motivation. A sense of recognition and fulfillment is equally powerful—achieving one's dreams is its own reward."
5.我們社會的成功在於相信他人,相信誠信精神,相信承諾。
"The success of our society is built on trusting others, believing in integrity, and honoring commitments."
6.真正的仁愛遠不只是慈善,真正的仁愛是為自助者提供長期的幫助。
"True compassion is more than charity; it is providing long-term support for those who help themselves."
7.豎立在一個人和他所想要中間的,通常只是要嘗試的意願,以及相信它可能成真的信念。
"The only thing standing between a person and what they want is often the willingness to try and the belief that it can come true."
8.一個好領導者必須能夠「絕對尊重他人」。
"A great leader must be able to show absolute respect for others."
9.我們是老天創造的生物,每個人都有其生存目的。
"We are creations of the divine, and each of us has a purpose in life."
10.當自己選擇樂觀看待生活,才能真正感覺和表現所謂快樂和積極。
"Only when we choose to see life with optimism can we truly feel and express happiness and positivity."
