爱华网一个报道成功事迹的杂志编辑，想知道我对成功的看法。以下是我所回复的：
Most people think success is a goal. I do not. I see success as a process. Most people define success only in terms of money. I do not. I think success is a combination of things -- health, happiness, material prosperity, love of family and friends, wisdom, influence, and fulfillment. 大多数人认为成功是一个目标。而我却不这么认为。我认为成功是一个过程。大多数人认为成功的定义就是金钱。我也不这么认为。我认为成功是健康、幸福、物质、亲朋好友、智慧、影响、实践的结合。
Here is how I know someone is successful -- If you are able to give from your abundance then you are successful. If you are able to donate money, spread happiness, inspire health, propagate love, share knowledge, motivate people, etc. then you are successful.
这里所说是我如何知道某人的成功--如果你能将你所有的给予，你就是成功了。如果你都能捐钱、传播快乐、提倡健康、传播爱、分享知识、激励人们等等，那么你就是成功了。
Most people think you need to work hard to achieve success. I do not think that is true. I believe the opposite is true. I believe you have to learn how to avoid work to be successful. I define work this way -- if you'd rather be doing something else, then you are working.多数人认为需要努力工作才成功。我不认为这是对的。我相信的情况是相反的。我希望您呢个学会如何避免工作而获得成功。这是我所定义的方式--相比与工作，你最好做其他事情。
You avoid work by loving what you do. Loving what you do is infinitely more powerful in achieving success than all the hard work in the world. If you love what you do, Nature will show you her secrets. When Nature reveals her secrets to you, you have the golden key to being successful. Those secrets are the formulas for working less yet accomplishing more. For example, you can strain your muscles working hard to move a big rock or you can use one of Nature's secrets and use a lever. When you use a lever you work much less but you accomplish much more.你爱怎么样就怎么样得来避免你的工作。做你喜欢做的事比完成世上所有困难的事而到达成功更加充满力量。如果你喜欢你所做的，大自然就会透露她的秘密。当大自然向你揭露了她的秘密，你就会拿到成功的钥匙。这些秘密是工作所不能发现的。例如，你不断锻炼而保持肌肉甚至可以移动一块大石，或者你可以看到自然的秘密，使用杠杆。使用杠杆能减少工作，完成更多。People who say they work hard are really saying they are not smart enough or creative enough or lucky enough to have found an easier, more effective way to accomplish what they want. Hard work is not the answer. Finding an easier, more effective solution is the answer. To find the easier solution, you need to be alert for a lazier way. People who work hard don't have the time or the energy or inclination to find that easier way.
人们说他们努力工作实际上是在说他们不够聪明、不够创意、不够幸运地找到更轻松、更有效的法方来完成他们所想要的。艰苦的工作不是答案。找到一个简单有效的方法才是答案。寻找简单的方法，你需要警惕懒惰的方法。辛勤工作的人没有时间、精力、意向寻求简便的方法。
