Based upon my own observations and experiences, here are the types of people who typically do not succeed in life:
基於我個人的觀察和經歷，以下是生活中典型的不會取得成功的人：
le who do not take personal responsibility for themselves or their decisions.
不爲自己或自己的決定負責的人。
le who blame other people for their mistakes.
因爲自己的錯誤指責別人的人。
le who believe there is some vast conspiracy to keep them down due to their race, skin color, religion, gender, or other similar identity factors.
認爲由於他們的種族、膚色、宗教信仰、性別或其他類似的身份因素被人算計而精神不振的人。
le who normalize the symptoms of generational poverty, i.e., drug and alcohol abuse, violence, etc.
把代際貧困的表現正常化的人，比如吸毒、酗酒、暴力等。
le who are parasitic upon other people.
寄生生活的人。
le who believe that they are somehow owed success without putting in the commensurate amount of work needed to be successful.
認爲不用付出成功所需的努力就能成功的人。
le who are easily distracted by partying, going out, etc.
很容易被聚會、外出等分心的人。
le who are too stubborn or proud to learn from their mistakes and make the necessary adjustments.
過於固執或自負而不願意從錯誤中汲取教訓並做出必要調整的人。
le who are too stubborn or proud to learn from others. This stifles both personal and professional growth.
過於固執或自負而不願意向他人學習的人，這會阻礙個人和職業的發展。
le who make poor life decisions that have long-lasting consequences, such as getting married/having children before you can properly provide for them, marrying the wrong person, living beyond one’s means, etc.
制定有長期影響的貧窮生活計劃的人，比如在能負擔得起之前就結婚生子、找錯結婚對象、入不敷出等。
le who believe that there is some sort of nobility in poverty. Example: “I might not have much but at least I’m a good person.” This is typically a justificationfor their current life circumstances.
以爲人可以窮得高貴的人，比如：“我可能沒錢，但至少我是個好人。”這是典型的在爲目前生活狀況狡辯。
le who care more about what other people think of them than they care about their own success. This typically results in self-destructive searching for validation.
相較於自己理想中的成功更在乎別人看法的人，這通常會導致自虐式地尋求別人的贊同。
le with past trauma that causes them to engage in self-destructive behavior. In most cases, this type of person will sabotage their own success at pivotal moments in their careers so they can be “in control” of the failure they anticipate they will experience.
有產生自虐行爲的心理陰影的人。大多數情況下，這種人會在事業關鍵時刻毀掉自己的成功以便能控制他們預見到的失敗。
le who are unable to believe that they can ever be great and do great things.
不能相信自己能成功、能做大事的人。
I’m sure there are other reasons but you get the general idea. Success is a mindset. You have to believe you will be successful. Once you can do that, you free yourself up to do the things you need to do to succeed, such as working hard, researching, trying new strategies, etc. Some of the biggest success stories in life were written by people who weren’t any smarter than the average person. The only thing they had was this undying belief that they could do it… and they did.
一定還有其他原因，我給出的是普遍情況。成功是一種心態，你要相信自己能成功。一旦你有自信就能放開去做獲得成功所需要做的事，比如努力、鑽研、嘗試新方法等等。譜寫生活中最大成功事蹟的人並不比普通人更聰明，他們唯一擁有的就是這種不朽的信念：他們能成功，結果他們確實成功了。
