海里·格布雷塞拉西分享他成功的祕密  

As the fastest long-distance runner ever
Haile Gebrselassie knows a thing or o about ambition and drive.
作为世界上最快的长跑运动员，海里洞悉关于雄心和内心的力量的一些内在祕密。
In a career spanning almost o decades
the o-time gold medalist and current marathon world-record holder has redefined the art of running -- beating his own personal best at the 2008 Berlin Marathon with a time of 2:03:59.
在长达几乎20年的职业生涯中，他获得过2块金牌，现在还是马拉松世界纪录保持者。他重新定义了跑步的艺术——在2008年柏林马拉松上他打破了个人最好成绩，取得了2:03:59的好成绩。
But success for the athlete isn't limited just to running. One of Ethiopia's most successful businessmen
Gebrselassie is the sole importer of Hyundai cars into the country
owns a number of properties in the capital
runs a gym in the city and has recently opened a new hotel near Lake Hawassa.
但是海里不仅仅是作为运动员取得了成功。他也是埃色俄比亚最成功的商人之一，他是他们国家现代汽车唯一的进口商，在首都拥有大量财产，在首都运营一座体操馆，最近又在Hawassa附近新开张了一家酒店。
Give it your all -- all the time 全身心投入——任何时间
Gebrselassie credits his achievements to three basic principles: mitment
discipline and hard work. "For me
they are the three most important things you have to do if you want to achieve
in anything
" he said.
海里把它的成功归功于3个基本法则：投入、教养和尽自己最大努力。“对我来说，如果你在任何方面要成功的话，它们是3个你必须要做的最重要的事情。”他说道。
The first ingredient is mitment. The drive and passion "to win gold
to be a world champion
to succeed
" is essential
he said. "Once you have mitment
you need the discipline and hard work to get you there."
首先是投入。内心的驱动和激情——“赢得金牌，成为世界冠军，获得成功”这是最基本的。他说道，“一旦你投入进去，你需要教养和努力工作使你到达成功的地方。”
It's a formula that has worked well for Gebrselassie and one he implements in his everyday life.
这是一个对海里很有效的公式，也是他每天都遵循的法则。
By 5:30 a.m. the world champion is already running around the stadium or in the forest near his house as part of his training program. By 9 a.m. he's in the office ready for a full day's work and at 5 p.m. he's back training for another o hours before heading home to see his wife and children.
早上5:30，这位世界冠军已经在绕着体育场或者在他家附近的树林里跑步了，这是他训练计划的一部分。早上9点到下午5点，他在办公室完成一整天的工作。在他回家见到妻子和孩子之前会再训练另外2个小时。
Everything he does is done with enthusiasm. "I just work hard
" he said. "When I wake up at 5 in the morning is it just to jog? Definitely not
I give it all of my efforts."
他做每件事情都是用热情去做。“我只是尽到我最大努力”他说。“当我每天早上5点起牀只是为了慢跑吗？当然不是，只是我尽自己最大的努力去做它。”


Don't do it for the money 不要为钱而去做
"Money es after. If you're planning only to make money and nothing else
you'll be broke."
“钱是次之的东西。如果你只是计划去赚钱而不是为了其他的，你将会失败。”
He continued: "It's a long process
you're not going to achieve what you want overnight
but the more you give
the more you get."
他接着说:"这需要长期的过程，你不可能立马获得你想要的东西，但是你付出的越多，你的回报就越多。"
Compete against yourself 与自己竞赛
When Gebrselassie is running a race
he's doesn't think about what the other athletes are doing
he's too busy racing against himself.
当海里在比赛中跑步时，他不会去想其他运动员正在干什么，他非常专注于与自己比赛。

"I don't think about if I have to be number one
o or three. I don't think I have to win the race
what I'm thinking about is that I have to run faster."
“我不会想是否我能成为第1名还是第2名，第3名。我会去想我必须要赢得这场比赛，我想的是我必须跑得更快。”

That applies to whether you're running a race or racing up the the corporate ladder.
不管你是参加比赛跑步还是在公司往上竞争爬梯子这都适用。
He continued: "You're race is not against other athletes
it's against the time
it's against yourself. I really think this really gives me an advantage. You're not worried about them so much
you focus on what you are doing.
他继续说道：“你不是与其他运动员竞争，你是与时间竞争，与你自己竞争。我认为这使我拥有了一项优势。你不需要担心很多，你只需要专注于你正在做的事情上面。”

Pick yourself up 使自己保持振作
"Hitting the wall" is an all too mon experience that befalls athletes and Gebrselassie isn't an exception. But
he said
resilience is key.
“撞墙”是所有运动员都体验过的，海里也不例外。但是他说，要尽快调整恢复过来很重要。
It's all in the mind
he said
and his philosophy is to always be "mentally fit."
全部都在你的意识里，他说，他的人生哲学是永远要“精神上最好”
"Many years back at the beginning of my athletics career
I injured myself during a marathon in Addis Ababa and I couldn't walk for almost a week.
“许多年以前，在我运动员生涯刚开始时，我在亚的斯亚贝巴马拉松中受伤了，我几乎一周都不能走路。”
"I was wounded physically
but mentally I wanted to continue. If your body is damaged
wounded
it can be fixed
but if inside
mentally
you are wounded you cannot fix it
it's hard."
“那只是身体上受伤，但是在精神上我还想继续。如果你的身体受伤，它可以治好，但是如果你的内心，精神上受到伤害后你不能治好，那就完了。”
This mentality has helped Gebrselassie in his business career as well as his athletic one.
这种精神治疗法在他的商业方面和运动员生涯一样帮助了他。
