[在逆境中強化自我]
余澹富說:
讚賞,一向是低成本、高效益的勵志方法;
讚賞,只需要熱誠和真摰的眼睛,
絕對不需要同時押上自己的心。
一般人都認為讚賞這種低成本、高效益的勵志方法,
只需要一般世俗人認識的「真」就已經足夠!
根本不需要科學精神和宗教精神裡的「真」,
所以根本不需要批判思維去判斷究竟
1. 讚賞的動機是否正確?
2. 讚賞是否一定是提供正能量?
3. 甚麼可以讚賞,甚麼不可以讚賞?
余澹富說:
一個追求成功的人,一定要把握高層次的讚賞藝術。
其中一種,就是善用勵志金句,
而且為了防止別人批判這些金句,
一遇到這種情況就必須立即指責批判者心術不正。
我對大貪官所用的讚賞方法是這樣的:
人最緊要有自信。
閣下是獨一無二的,
千萬不要責怪自己,要愛自己!
總之一句講晒:
我係我,我愛自己,我做回自己。
如果有人問你「你如何看自己?」
你就回答他說:
我好可愛!
我的鼻長得很美,我的身體很強壯;
我有愛我的父母,愛我的團隊,愛我的教友;
我養活了妻子和很多的情人,又有可愛的兒女;
我家有七隻可愛的貓,五隻可愛的狗……。
我十分知足,現在只看我所有的,
絕對不介意自己還未曾擁有的;
偶爾看一看我還未擁有的,
目的只不過是鼓勵自己繼續奮鬥,
苟日新,日日新,又日新!
獨一無二的人,必須跑出自信,
找到一件自己喜歡做,又能夠做得好的事情,
這樣才感覺到自己的積極存在。
要立志做成功人士,
絕對不應模仿那些道貌岸然的人。
It is better to be hated for what you are
than loved for what you are not.
( Andre Gide )
To love means loving the unlovable.
To forgive means pardoning the unpardonable.
Faith means believing the unbelievable.
Hope means hoping when everything
seems hopeless.
( G.K. Chesterton )
Your time (on earth) is limited,
so don’t waste it living someone else’s life.
Don’t be trapped by dogma──
which is living with the results of
other people’s thinking.
Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions
drown out your inner voice.
And most important, have the courage
to follow your heart and intuition.
( Steve Jobs )

我融合了多位西方勵志專家們的說話:
The world doesn’t need a bunch of people
that are all the same.
Who you are is what makes you special.
The world needs you.
If you don’t fit in,
then you’re probably doing the right thing.
Do not change for anyone.
Learn to appreciate yourself
as a unique and valuable human being.
Embrace your uniqueness and become free
because there is no greater freedom
than the freedom to be yourself.
You are your own best friend.
You love and accept yourself unconditionally.
Happiness is letting go of what others think
you life is supposed to look like.
So be yourself no matter what
other people think and say of you.
It takes courage to grow up
and become who you really are.
Keep your dignity.
Never apologize for being who you are !
余澹富說:
大貪官所需要的其實和一般人無異,就是真誠的讚賞。
真誠的拍馬屁,何嘗不是一種真誠的讚賞?
千穿萬穿,高級的馬屁不穿!
Drop the idea of becoming someone,
because you are already a masterpiece.
You cannot be improved.
You have only to come to it,
to know it, to realize it.
( Osho )
The moment you accept yourself
you become beautiful.
( Osho )
大貪官說,他曾經得到黑社會的幫助,完成學業,
他雖然騎牛行過死蔭的馬屎坑到處搵馬,
被又臭又污穢不堪的馬屎沾滿了雙腳,也不害怕,
因為黑社會和灰社會都支持他,安慰他,與他同在,
甚至在他的敵人面前,為他擺設筵席,
使他的福氣滿溢,結果讓他攀上了高位。
我對大貪官說,你能夠攀上今天的高位,極為難得,
證明你做人十分努力上進,努力奮鬥,不怕挑戰,
即使事情相當棘手,充滿了阻力和反對,
但你永不言敗,永不放棄,永不鬆懈,
在貪污方面嘗試挑戰自己,在方法之上勇於創新,
又重視團隊精神,所以獲得空前的成功。
正所謂「不經一番寒徹骨,焉得梅花撲鼻香」!
你一生一世都有皇灰黑三氣隨著你,直到永遠,阿門。
當你掌握權力之後,這個權力就是由神而來的,
因為聖經說:「凡掌權的都是神所命的」。
所以幾位掌權的基督徒或天主教徒決定了的事情,
怎可能不是神聖的?
The only way to do great work
is to love what you do.
( Steve Jobs )
由於我知道大貪官的英語水平有限,
分不清 seat 和 seed 的發音,
又知道他好色如命,所以我幽了他一默:
在香港,我們鼓勵禮讓,所以地鐵有這樣的宣傳句子:
Offer your seat to anyone in need.
我見到你對需要錢的美女特別有禮貌,
You always offer your seed to any lady in need.
大貪官尷尬地笑了一笑,不知道我是甚麼意思。
因為讓座,只不過是小事而已!
我知道他聽不懂,但我不會放過任何拍馬屁的機會,
所以我立即接著說:你懂得享受努力的成果,
更加證明你並非一個只會工作,不會享受的工作狂。
所有勵志人士都會以你為榮!
People stand out for a lot of reasons,
but you stand out for all the best reasons.
You are outstanding because
you are what you are and you do what you do.
You stand up for your beliefs and values,
you love the life you live
and you have already lived the life you love.
You have no regrets.
最後,我和大貪官一起欣賞音樂來結束這一節的輔導。
為了鼓勵士氣,我安排了同一首歌曲的五個演出版本,
讓大貪官聽完又聽,回味無窮:
《My Way》
