The DNA of Success
by Earl Mann
Today we’re going to talk about DNA: that thing that makes you who you are, that thing that makes you who you can become, that thing that is coded into your essence and determines what your capacity is, what your limits are! Your DNA is your “Decisions and Actions.” That’s what determines who you are!
If you do enough research and listen to enough scientists on human potential, they will tell you that you are precisely where you are in life because of the decisions and actions that you’ve taken up to this point. Understanding this is critical to going forward with success. If you are today the result of all the decisions and actions up to this point, then who you are tomorrow will be the result of all the decisions and actions you take between now and then. So, understanding that, getting your hands and mind around this DNA, is the key. Every decision you make, every action you take is either in support of or in opposition to your achievement of whatever you have determined as your own individual success.
But understand this: If you have the winner’s DNA, everything changes. Everything is changing. You look out into the world and you see allies instead of enemies. You see keys instead of locks. You see solutions instead of obstacles. Getting your mind around these “Decisions and Actions” makes your path to your individual goals that much clearer.
People with the winning DNA don’t request that the path to their success be easy.They don’t even request that it be fair. They just request that it be worth it because if they know that it’s worth it, then they can do whatever is necessary to achieve it. All that is necessary, the only thing that is necessary, is that you understand that the only thing between you now and you where you want to be is all the “Decisions and Actions” that you can squeeze in between.
Give yourself a DNA test. Ask yourself, “What are the decisions I am making and what are the actions I am taking? Why am I making those decisions? Why am I taking those actions? Where are those decisions taking me? Where are those actions leading me? Are they taking me to a place that is worth it?” If they are, then we will all see you when you arrive; because there is nothing on this planet that can stop you. Decide. Act. And expect a great day!

成功的DNA
厄爾.曼
今天，我們來談談什么是DNA。DNA造就了你本身，決定著你可以成為什么樣的人，構成你的本性，決定著你的能力以及你的不足。你的DNA是你的“決心和行動”，那是決定你之所以是你的因素。
在有關人類潛能方面，如果你能進行充分的調查，并廣泛傾聽科學家的意見，就會發(fā)現(xiàn)，正是你此前所有的決定和行動決定了你現(xiàn)在在生活中的位置。明白這一點對于邁向成功至關重要。如果今天的你是由你此前的決心和行動所造就的，那么明天的你將取決于你現(xiàn)在和以后的一切決心和行動。因而，理解這一切，讓雙手和思想圍繞著這種DNA行動，這是關鍵所在。你所下定的每個決心，所采取的每次行動，要么有助于你沿著自己心中的成功之路前進，要么就與之相抵觸。但要明白這一點：如果你擁有贏家的基因，一切就會因此而改變。一切都在變化之中。放眼世界，你看到的是朋友而不是敵人，是鑰匙而不是枷鎖，是解決方案而不是障礙困難。心系這些“決心和行動”會讓你通向個人目標的道路更加暢通。具有贏家基因的人不會要求讓自己的成功之路舒適安逸。他們甚至不會要求這條路要公平，而是希望值得為之拼搏，因為如果知道值得付出，他們就能夠付出一切必要的努力使夢想成真。全部的必要條件只有一個，那就是，你要理解橫亙于此時的'你和你理想中的自己之間的惟一一樣東西，就是你能夠在兩者之間所塞入的所有決心和行動。
給自己做一次DNA測試。捫心自問：“我現(xiàn)在做的是什么決定，所采取的是什么行動?我為何要做這些決定?為何要采取這些行動?那些決定將會把我?guī)У胶翁?那些行動將會引導我走向何方?它們會引領我走向值得一搏的地方嗎?”如果答案是肯定的，那么當你到達時，我們都會看見你，因為這世上沒有任何東西能夠阻止你。做決定吧。行動起來。這樣你會迎來美好的一天!
