励志演讲 :巴菲特:决定你成功的因素(2)

In fact, there was a fellow.

实际上,有一个同僚。

He was in Omaha, who used to say, he looked with three things in hiring people: integrity, intelligence and energy.

奥哈马市有一位先生说,当他雇人时,他会看三个方面:诚信,智能,和精力。

And he said if the person did not have the first two, the later two would kill him,

雇一个只有高智力和精力,却没有诚信的人会毁了雇者。

because if they don’t have integrity, you want them dumb and lazy, you don’t want them smart and energetic.

因为一个没有诚信的人,你只能希望他愚蠢和懒惰,而不是聪明和精力充沛。

And I got I really like to talk: about the first one,

所以我想谈的是第一点,

because we know you got the second two.

因为我知道你们都具备后两点。

And I’d just,play along with me a little game for just a second, and in terms of thinking about the question.

在考虑这个问题时,请你们和我一起玩玩这个游戏。

You've all been here, I guess almost all of your second year MBA,

你们现在都是在MBA的第二年,

and you’ve gotten to know your classmates.

所以你们对自己的同学也应该都了解了。

Think for a moment that I granted you the right to buy 10% of one of your classmates for the rest of all his life time.

现在我给你们一个来买进10%的你的一个同学的权利,一直到他的生命结束。

You can’t pick one with a rich father.

你不能选那些有着富有老爸的同学,

That doesn’t count.

那不算数。

You've got to pick somebody who is going to do this on our own merit.

每个人的成果都要靠他自己的努力。

And I’d give you an hour to think about it.

我给你一个小时来想这个问题,

Which one you are going to pick?

你将会挑哪一个同学?

One of your classmates, just one you want to own 10% for the rest of his lifetime.

你愿意买进哪一个同学余生的10%?

And are you going to give an IQ test and pick the one with the highest IQ?

你会给他们做一个IQ测试吗,选那个IQ值最高的我也怀疑。

I doubt it.

我很怀疑。

Are you going to pick the one with the best grade?

你会挑那个学习成绩最好的吗?

I doubt it.

我很怀疑。

You might not pick the most energetic one necessarily because you are the one who is most initiative.

你也不一定会选那个最精力充沛的,因为你自己本身就已经动力十足了。

You are going to start looking for qualitative factors, in addition,

你可能会去寻找那些质化的因素,

because everybody got a brain and energy.

因为这里的每个人都是很有脑筋的。

And I would say that before about for an hour, I’ll place that bet on.

你想了一个小时之后,我敢打赌,

You would probably pick the one who you responded the best to,

你可能会选择那个你最有认同感的人,

the one who has the leadership qualities,

那个最有领导才能的人,

the one who is able to get other people to carry out their interests.

那个能实现他人利益的人。

That would be the person who is generous, honest and who gave credit to other people even for their own ideas.

那个慷慨,诚实,即使是他自己的主意,也会把功劳分予他人的人。

All kinds of qualities like that.

他会拥有所有这些类似的好品质。

You can write down those qualities which you admire as another question: whomever you admire the most in the class.

你可以把这些你所钦佩的素质都写下作为我第二个问题的答案。我的第二个问题是:你最钦佩班上的哪位同学?
