1
People say you have to have a lot of passion for what you're doing
2
and it's totally true and the reason is because it's so hard that if you don't any rational person would give up.
3
It's really hard and you have to do it over a sustained period of time.
4
So if you don't love it, if you're not having fun doing it and you don't really love it, you're going to give up.
5
And that's what happens to most people actually.
6
If you really look at the ones that ended up, you know, being successful, unquote, in the eyes of society and the ones that didn't,
7
oftentimes it's the ones that are successful loved what they did so they could persevere, you know, when it got really tough.
8
And the ones that didn't love it quit because they're sane, right?
9
Who would want to put up with this stuff if you don't love it?
10
So it's a lot of hard work, and it's a lot of worrying constantly.
11
And if you don't love it, you're going to fail.
12
So you got to love it, you got to have passion.
13
And I think that's the high order bit.
14
The second thing is you've got to be a really good talent scout.
15
Because no matter how smart you are, you need a team of great people.
16
And you've got to figure out how to size people up fairly quickly, make decisions without knowing people too well,
17
and hire them and see how you do and refine your intuition
18
and be able to help build an organization that can eventually just build itself because you need great people around you.
19
Thank you.

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
