文档介绍：1. Believe in yourself when no one else does. Lin’s only the 4th graduate from Harvard to make it to the NBA. He’s also one of only a handful of Asian-Americans to make it. He was sent by the Knicks to play for their D-League team 3 weeks ago in Erie, PA. He’d already been cut by two other NBA teams before joining the Knicks this year. You’ve got to believe in yourself, even when no one else does.
即使没人相信你也不能绝望。林书豪只是第四位能够进入NBA的哈佛学生。他也只是一小撮能够登陆NBA的亚裔美国人之一。在三个星期前,他还曾被尼克斯队下放到NBDL球队宾州伊利海鹰队。在这个赛季加盟尼克斯队之前,林书豪曾被两支其他的NBA球队裁掉。即使没人相信你了,你也不能对自己绝望。
2. Seize the opportunity when es up. Lin got to start for the Knicks because they had to start him. They had too many injuries. Baron Davis was gone. The other point guards were out. Carmelo Anthony was injured. Amare Stoudemire had to leave the team because of a family death. Lin could have squandered the opportunity and we would have never have noticed. But he made the most of it. You never know when opportunities are going to arise in life. Often, they’re when you least expect them. Make the most of them. Don’t fritter them away.
当机会来临时要好好把握。尼克斯队之所以让林书豪打上首发,实属无奈之举, 他们的伤病球员太多了。拜伦戴维斯(Baron Davis)一直无法上场。其他控球后卫也不能出战。卡梅罗·安东尼( Carmelo Anthony)受伤了。阿玛雷斯塔德迈尔(Amare Stoudemire)因为家人去世而离队奔丧。如果林书豪浪费掉这个机会,他将不会得到我们的关注。但是他很好地利用了这个机会。在生活中,你从不知道机会何时会降临。通常,在你最不期待的时候,机会就会出现。尽最大限度地利用这些机会,不要挥霍掉了。
3. Your family will always be there for you, so be there for them.
