To Be Lucky,Be Prepared
I remember the exact moment I learned the principle of preparing for luck.
I was on the wrestling team,Now,if there’s one thing I can tell you about any sport,it is that wresting is probably the sport that has the least luck .There are only two people out on the mat,so you cannot blame it on your teammates or your coach.And guess what?There is no weather because we do the whole thing indoors,so you can’t say,“It was raining” or “It was snowing.” It makes sense to say wrestling is the sport with the least luck.
On our team were two world champions; one of them had been world champion five times.We also had five people who were national champions.One of them was a guy by the name of John.
John had never been defeated in my high school wrestling competition that I could remember,because he was a national champion.There was nobody locally who could touch him.
One day,we went for a match with our biggest opponent(对手).John went out on the mat,and about a minute and 30 seconds into the match he tried to make a particular move .He rolled over,and his opponent caught him halfway through his roll.He was pinned instantly
The match was over.
I remember on the bus on the way home,one of our teammates tried to comfort John by saying,“Oh,he just got lucky.” And John said,“That’s so stupid.The opportunity presented itself,and he exploited it.”
We used to have this big sign in our wrestling room that the coach had put there.“Luck is what happens when opportunity meets preparation.”
John’s opponent was prepared to exploit this opportunity.The probability of beating John was not strong,and he knew it.But he paid attention to the rigut opportunity to present itself,and he defeated and pinned a five-time national champion.
In other words,the real message is “Be prepared!” It’s not just finding the opportunity; you have to be prepared to seize it.
想要成为幸运的人就要有所准备
我清楚的记得我学会那个时刻我是怎么学会为幸运作准备的原则的
我过去曾在摔跤队,现在,如果我有任何有关远动的事情告诉你,那就是,摔跤可能没有一点乐趣可言.
只有两个人不受责备,所以你不能对你的队友或者教练抱怨.想想看,我们所有的训练都在室内完成,这里没有天气,没有下雨,也没有下雪,所以可以这么说摔跤几乎没有什么乐趣.
在我们队里有两个世界冠军,其中一个已经是第五次获得世界冠军了,我们这里也有五个人他们是国家冠军,有个人的名字叫做john.他在我所记的的高中摔跤比赛中从未被打败过,因为他是国家比赛冠军,我们这里没有人能摔过他.
有一天,我们去和我们最强的一个对手比赛,john走上垫子,在接下来的一分三十秒中,他试图扭转局势,他翻滚着,但他的对手却借此中途抓住了他,他被牢牢的压住了!最后比赛就这么结束了.
我记得在回来的车上,我们的一个队友试着安慰他说,“噢,没关系,他只不过是运气好罢了”但是john说,“太愚蠢了,机会出现了,我却没有抓住.”
在摔跤室,我们常常会碰到这样的情况,教练也给我们以暗示.
幸运总是当机会遇见充分的准备才出现的
John的对手早已准备好要抓住这个机会.打败john的可能性并不大,他的对手也知道.但是john的对手注意到了难得的机会,所以他打败了这个曾经连续五次的全国冠军.
换句话说,真正的真谛是“凡事做好准备”,并不是你发现机会就行了,你还必须准备好能够抓住它.
