雙語(yǔ)智慧書·切莫孤注一擲賭名聲

185．切莫孤注一擲賭名聲
　　切莫孤注一擲賭名聲。若此舉失敗，損失則難以彌補(bǔ)。出現(xiàn)一次失敗很常見，尤其是初次嘗試，更易失敗。環(huán)境不會(huì)總是有利的，所以有人說：連狗都有好運(yùn)當(dāng)頭的一天?？傄o自己預(yù)留再試的余地，無論第一次是否成功，都能有益于第二次。你總會(huì)有更好的方法和更多的資源可供采用。事情成功與否仰仗各種機(jī)緣，這正是成就感如此難得的原因所在。


185．Never stake your credit on a single cast
　Never stake your credit on a single cast; for if it miscarries the damage is irreparable. It may easy happen that a man should fail once, especially at first: circumstances are not always favourable, hence they say, "Every dog has his day." Always connect your second attempt with your first: whether it succeeds or fails, the first will redeem the second. Always have resort to better means and appeal to more resources. Things depend on all sorts of chances. That is why the satisfaction of success is so rare.
