过去六年中你完成了哪些事？

 　　Six (and a half) years ago, I wrote my first blog post.

　　六年（六年半）前，我写下了我的第一篇博文。

　　?Six Years is a Long Road – Too many people want overnight¹ success. I continue to see those who try “quick schemes” and they burn out as fast as they rise. When people ask how I got to this point, I say, “I just didn’t stop…” Others did.

　　?六年是一段很长的路---许多人都想一夜成功。我一直都在看那些想要尝试快速获得成功的方法，他们失败就跟他们开始一样快。当别人问道我是怎样走到今天的，我回答，“我只是没有停下来….”而别人停下来了。

　　?Success Isn’t a Destination – You don’t just “reach success” one day. You go on and continue your adventure. It’s a path that you follow, not a place you get to.

　　?成功不是目的地---某天你不只是“到达了成功”。你要继续向前走，继续你的冒险。那是你要前进的道路，不是你要达到的地点。

　　?Try, Try and Try Again – Building success takes action… and more action. You don’t plan, plan, plan, plan and plan. You act, act, act, act, and then keep taking action. That is how success happens. There will be mistakes and lessons learned² along the way. That’s how you get better.

　　?尝试，尝试，再尝试---想要成功就要有行动…以及更多的行动。你没有计划，计划，计划，计划，计划。你只是行动，行动，行动，行动，之后还是一直在行动。那就是成功的方式。这一路上会从中吸取到经验教训。那就是你变的更好的方式。

　　?Many Will Be Left Behind – I can’t count on both hands and feet how many of my fellow bloggers, websites, companies and apps have disappeared in the six and half years I have been blogging. As I said, “They stopped. They gave up. They were left behind.” This is life, business, and the world. Not everyone will continue down their path even when success is in sight.

　　?许多人会被淘汰---在我写博客的这六年中有我用双手双脚都数不过来的博客主，网站，公司和应用软件消失。当我说：“他们停下来了，他们放弃了，他们被淘汰了。”这就是生活，商业，世界。当成功就在眼前的时候不是每个人都会在原本的道路上坚持。

　　“Don’t quit when others do… that’s how you reach success.”

　　当别人在放弃时你也不放弃….那就是你成功的方式The general message is, “Don’t give up. Don’t stop believing in your path. And no matter what… keep going.”

　　一般的说法是，“不要放弃，不要不在相信你的道路，无论如何都要走下去。”

　　Here are some of my big themes and goals for the coming year:

　　以下这些就是我来年的一些工作主题和工作目标：

　　?More Writing – I want to get back to more writing. That will mean more time management and technology posts on this website. Let me know what you want to see covered.

　　?多写----我想要重新多写一点。那也就意味着网站上会有更多时间管理和科技的文章。让我知道你想要看见哪种文章。

　　?Time Management Courses – Some of you have taken my “31 Days” course. As well, I have two more productivity³ courses coming out this Spring including TMN’s BIG time management course.

　　?时间管理课程---你们有些人已经采用了我的“31天”课程。同样，在这个春天我有两个更高效的课程，包括TMN大时间管理课程。

　　?Mastermind Group – I am working with a few friends in a Mastermind Group. I love the motivation and accountability. Each of us has tremendous⁴ goals for our respective⁵ websites in 2016, and it is going to be exciting to drive each other to success.

　　?策划小组---我在策划组中和几个朋友一起工作过。我喜欢这种动力和彼此信任。我们中的每一个人对于2016年我们各自的网站都有巨大的目标，这会让我们很兴奋并将引领每个人通向成功。

　　Where Will You Be in Six (and a Half) Years?

　　六年中你会在哪里？

　　It’s going to be a great year! Look for my “year seven” post this Fall.

　　这会是一个好年头！期待我今年秋天发布的“第7年”博客文章。

　　What about you? Where were you six and half years ago?

　　你呢？六年半前你在何处？

　　And what could you accomplish⁶ in six and half years?

　　六年半的时间你完成了些什么？

　　What’s stopping you? Start today.

　　是什么阻止了你？那今天就开始吧。
