　　The DNA of Success

　　by Earl Mann

　　Today we’re going to talk about DNA: that thing that makes you who you are, that thing that makes you who you can become, that thing that is coded into your essence and determines what your capacity is, what your limits are! Your DNA is your “Decisions and Actions.” That’s what determines who you are!

　　If you do enough research and listen to enough scientists on human potential, they will tell you that you are precisely where you are in life because of the decisions and actions that you’ve taken up to this point. Understanding this is critical to going forward with success. If you are today the result of all the decisions and actions up to this point, then who you are tomorrow will be the result of all the decisions and actions you take between now and then. So, understanding that, getting your hands and mind around this DNA, is the key. Every decision you make, every action you take is either in support of or in opposition to your achievement of whatever you have determined as your own individual success.

　　But understand this: If you have the winner’s DNA, everything changes. Everything is changing. You look out into the world and you see allies instead of enemies. You see keys instead of locks. You see solutions instead of obstacles. Getting your mind around these “Decisions and Actions” makes your path to your individual goals that much clearer.

　　People with the winning DNA don’t request that the path to their success be easy.They don’t even request that it be fair. They just request that it be worth it because if they know that it’s worth it, then they can do whatever is necessary to achieve it. All that is necessary, the only thing that is necessary, is that you understand that the only thing between you now and you where you want to be is all the “Decisions and Actions” that you can squeeze in between.

　　Give yourself a DNA test. Ask yourself, “What are the decisions I am making and what are the actions I am taking? Why am I making those decisions? Why am I taking those actions? Where are those decisions taking me? Where are those actions leading me? Are they taking me to a place that is worth it?” If they are, then we will all see you when you arrive; because there is nothing on this planet that can stop you. Decide. Act. And expect a great day!

　　成功的DNA

　　厄尔.曼

　　今天，我们来谈谈什么是DNA。DNA造就了你本身，决定着你可以成为什么样的人，构成你的本性，决定着你的能力以及你的不足。你的DNA是你的“决心和行动”，那是决定你之所以是你的因素。

　　在有关人类潜能方面，如果你能进行充分的调查，并广泛倾听科学家的意见，就会发现，正是你此前所有的决定和行动决定了你现在在生活中的位置。明白这一点对于迈向成功至关重要。如果今天的你是由你此前的决心和行动所造就的，那么明天的你将取决于你现在和以后的一切决心和行动。因而，理解这一切，让双手和思想围绕着这种DNA行动，这是关键所在。你所下定的每个决心，所采取的每次行动，要么有助于你沿着自己心中的成功之路前进，要么就与之相抵触。但要明白这一点：如果你拥有赢家的基因，一切就会因此而改变。一切都在变化之中。放眼世界，你看到的是朋友而不是敌人，是钥匙而不是枷锁，是解决方案而不是障碍困难。心系这些“决心和行动”会让你通向个人目标的道路更加畅通。具有赢家基因的人不会要求让自己的成功之路舒适安逸。他们甚至不会要求这条路要公平，而是希望值得为之拼搏，因为如果知道值得付出，他们就能够付出一切必要的努力使梦想成真。全部的必要条件只有一个，那就是，你要理解横亘于此时的'你和你理想中的自己之间的惟一一样东西，就是你能够在两者之间所塞入的所有决心和行动。

　　给自己做一次DNA测试。扪心自问：“我现在做的是什么决定，所采取的是什么行动?我为何要做这些决定?为何要采取这些行动?那些决定将会把我带到何处?那些行动将会引导我走向何方?它们会引领我走向值得一搏的地方吗?”如果答案是肯定的，那么当你到达时，我们都会看见你，因为这世上没有任何东西能够阻止你。做决定吧。行动起来。这样你会迎来美好的一天!
