建立“个人董事会”

导向失败的路径远多于导向成功的路径。许多人之所以依然选择了导向失败的路径，主要是因为那些路径虽然老套但很好上路，而且它们的运用十分的广泛，容易上手。我们需要一个自我保护的策略，就像防火墙一样，保护电脑以防毁灭性的病毒偷偷潜入并带来破坏。那就是建立“个人董事会”，这种策略直接关系到你的“100名单”，他们属于你所信任的朋友组成的内部圈子。有七类人构成你的“个人董事会”：母亲或者父亲（或者是一位你认为可以充当父母角色的年长朋友）；同伴（也可能是你的配偶，你的配偶是你最坚实的联盟）；最好的朋友；法律顾问；职业或者生活导师；财务顾问；精神顾问（我们每个人都会在某些事情上面表现出盲目的情绪，我们需要一位明智的精神导师在道德伦理方面帮助我们好好去领会，你将受益匪浅，他们可能是牧师、神甫、法师或者其他可信任的精神顾问）；以上这些人都一定是值得信任的、正直与诚实的、直言不讳的。他们应该是聪明理智的，具有社会经验和处世智慧，能够迅速把握处境的利弊，基于事实而非情绪告诉你肯定或者否定的答案。

There are far more paths to failure than to success. Many people still choose the path of failure because it is well-worn and easy to follow, and it is so widely used that it is easy to learn. We need a self-protecting strategy, like a firewall, to protect computers from destructive viruses that can sneak in and wreak havoc. Create a "personal board", a strategy that is directly related to your "list of 100", an inner circle of trusted friends. There are seven types of people who make up your "personal board" : your mother or father (or an older friend who you think can act as a parent); Peers (it could also be your spouse, who is your strongest ally); A best friend; Legal counsel; Career or life coach; Financial advisor; Spiritual Counselor (we all have blind emotions in some things, we need a wise spiritual teacher to help us understand the moral and ethical aspects, you will benefit a lot from them, they may be a priest, priest, mage or other trusted spiritual counselor); These people must be trustworthy, upright and honest, and outspoken. They should be intelligent, socially experienced and resourceful, able to quickly grasp the pros and cons of a situation and give you a yes or no answer based on facts, not emotions.

圣经里有一句箴言：“与智慧人同行的，必得智慧；和愚昧人作伴的，必受亏损。”

There is a proverb in the Bible, "He who walks with the wise will be wise; He who keeps company with fools will suffer harm."

“个人董事会”他们是重要的指导者，会帮助你进行规划，并引导和鼓励他们相信自己，克服外在缺陷，瞄准方向，找到自己的梦想。所以拥有一个高质量的“个人董事会”是获得成功的一个至关重要的策略。

They are important mentors who will help you plan, guide and encourage them to believe in themselves, overcome external flaws, aim for direction, and find their dreams. So having a high-quality "personal board" is a vital strategy for success.
