成功人士的经历总结出来的10个教训，每个成功者的背后都有很多不同的人生经历，通过成功的路上虽然颇有曲折，但是条条大路通罗马，汲取成功者的教训，来为每个即将获取成功的人士以帮助，避免重蹈覆辙。
From observations of successful people, clinical psychologist and author of Never Go Back: 10 Things You'll Never Do Again (Howard Books, June 2014), Dr. Henry Cloud has discovered certain “awakenings” that people have—in life and in business—that once they have them, they never go back to the old way of doing things. And when that happens, they are never the same.
临床心理学家以及《绝不回头：10件你永远不会再做的事情》的作者亨利·克劳德，通过对成功人士的观察，发现了生活和工作带给人们的一些“教训”，一旦人们吸取了这些教训，就绝对不会再重蹈覆辙。即使同样的事情发生了，他们也会以不同于以往的方式来处理。
Although life and business have many lessons to teach us, Dr. Cloud observed 10 “doorways” of learning that high performers go through, never to return again.
虽然生活和工作带给我们的教训有很多，但是克劳德教授为我们总结出了成功人士经历并吸取的10个教训。
Successful people never again…
6. Trust someone or something that appears flawless. When someone or something looks too good to be true, he, she, or it is. The world is imperfect. No one and no thing is without flaw, and if they appear that way, hit pause.
6.不相信世界是完美无瑕的。如果有些人或物看起来完美到不真实的地步的话，那么他或她或它就一定有什么问题。这个世界就是不完美的。没有人或物是完美无暇的，如果有就一定得多留意。
7. Take their eyes off the big picture. We function better emotionally and perform better in our lives when we can see the big picture. For successful people, no one event is ever the whole story.
7.不会鼠目寸光。如果我们看待事情能够更长远、更宏观，我们就能在生活中表现得更好。对于成功的人来说，任何事都不能只看眼前。
8. Neglect to do due diligence. No matter how good something looks on the outside, it is only by taking a deeper, diligent, and honest look that we will find out what we truly need to know: the reality that we owe ourselves.
8.不对任何事掉以轻心。不管事物的外表看起来有多么好，我们都必须从更深层、更真实的一面去看待，这样才能找到我们真正想要知道的东西。
9. Fail to ask why they are where they find themselves. One of the biggest differences between successful people and others is that in love and in life, in relationships and in business, successful people always ask themselves, what part am I playing in this situation? Said another way, they do not see themselves only as victims, even when they are.
9.不会忘记发挥自己的作用。成功人士与其他人最大的一个不同之处在于，不管是在恋爱和生活中，还是在人际交往和生意场上，成功的人会不断问自己，我的作用是什么?换句话说，对成功的人来说，即使他们是真正的受害者，他们也从不把自己当做受害者。
10. Forget that their inner life determines their outer success. The good life sometimes has little to do with outside circumstances. We are happy and fulfilled mostly by who we are on the inside. Research validates that.
10.不会忘记是内心世界决定了外在的成功。优质的生活有时与外在的处境毫无关系。我们感到幸福和充实，很大一不部分原因在于我们的内在感受。研究也证实了这点。
Everyone makes mistakes…even the most successful people out there. But, what achievers do better than others is recognize the patterns that are causing those mistakes and never repeat them again. In short, they learn from pain—their own and the pain of others.
每个人都可能犯错，即使是最成功的人。但是成功人士强于他人之处在于懂得吸取教训并避免再犯。总之，成功的人是从自己和他人的教训中学到东西的人。
