奥美-----你真的想要成功吗？

My title is taken from the philosophy of the great financier (and fraud), Bernie Corhfeld.
我的题目是摘自大财政家（也是骗子）Bernie Cornfeld 的个人哲学。

Bernie became a multimillionaire in the years after World War II by selling mutual funds. More important, almost all of Bernie’s salesman became millionaires in their own right.
二次世界大战后，Bernie因销售互助公债而致富成为千万富翁。更重要的是，几乎所有为Bernie 工作的销售员，后来个个都变成为百万富翁。

The technique he used in interviewing to find the right people is fascinating. The key question was always:
当他在甄试适当人选时，所用的晤谈技巧是相当吸引人的。他的主要问题总是问：

“Do you sincerely want to be rich?”
“你真的想要有钱吗？”

Of course, we all want to be rich. The point is, do you sincerely want to be rich. Are you willing to do the work, to know what is required, to have the discipline -- and make the personal sacrifices -- to be rich?
当然，我们每一个人都想要有钱。重点是，你真的想要有钱。你是否愿意去做，去知道必须具备的条件，去培养必要的纪律iiiiii 做一些个人的牺牲iiiiii 为的是要有钱？

There’s a story about Marion Harper, who built Interpublic, chiding his executives on a Friday night in Kansas City ”You are too home-oriented.” Perhaps an extreme example.
Interpublic公司的创办人Marion Harper有这么一个故事：某一周五晚上他在Kansas City对着公司的主管咆哮“你们太家庭导向。”这或许是个太极端的例子。

Do you sincerely want to succeed?
你真的想要成功吗？

David Ogilvy said, “If you are tend your rose garden, I’ll admire you the more, But don’t complain when you don’t get promoted.”
David Ogilvy 曾说：“当你在悉心照顾你的玫瑰园时，我会相当地羡慕你。但是当你没有升迁时，千万不要抱怨”。

Of course what David did was to tend his rose garden and do more work than anybody else in the place.
当然，David Ogilvy 所做的是不仅照顾他的玫瑰园，同时他比公司任何人做更多的工作。
