    成功的定义--转载

    成功的本质对我来说,无非是对生活可以有一份更大的选择天地与自由,并且有一份能力去更好地关照自己和社会:你可以去住农家小院体验养鸡种菜,可以异想天开地去攀登珠峰,也可以出入侯门话天下大事。你挑战的对象是你自己,你可以更踏实地做自己。你既有取的快乐,更能享受舍的自由。

    我想起世界最大的连锁店之一,沃尔玛的老板的故事,他每次去自己的商店买东西,都有礼貌地像普通顾客那样排队。他没有因为自己的成功,就去剥夺自己作为一个普通消费者的购物的快乐。我家里认识的另一个美国房地产大亨,坐拥亿万地产,老先生也是自己开着一辆普通的凯迪拉克去上班,从来没有见到他出行时前呼后拥。他们都踏实地过着自己的生活。

    可在我们的面子文化中,成功变质了,变成了极具排他性的东西,被孤立地束之高阁,变成了一种更深意义上的自残行为。你成功了就会把自己装进某一个阶层,就只能坐小车,不能乘地铁。好像你获得的,是一种可以趾高气昂的资本、一种可以贬低别人的条件、一张可以挥霍的账单。你挑战的对象永远是别人的眼光。我想这也是为什么,在我们经济发达的今天,虽然怀揣金元宝的“伪成功者”比比皆是,可具有真正成功者胸襟气度品德的人却寥寥。

    不容置疑,我们生活在面子文化里眼球经济中,多多少少要对面子大人妥协。但就像我们知道穿衣一定会脏但也要穿衣,只不过时时需洗涤它们一样,我们也时时需要把我们身上披挂着的各种面子脱下来浆洗。如果把面子放在一个大盆里浸泡,我自造的洗面皂广告词只有一句:千万别把过多的精力花在别人怎么看你身上,因为别人怎么看我们,常常取决于我们怎么看自己!

    踏踏实实地做你自己的选择,别老惦着拄别人的拐杖走自己的路。
