感觉演讲者有点像老年版丹尼尔.克雷格.
one of the big reason is, we think success is a one-way street, so we do everything that leads up to success
---- one-way street(想起访问Verizon总部时看到进园区的的一条路标了大大的 One Way)
lead up to 为...铺路，为...做准备，导致; 渐渐引到(某个话题)，拐弯抹角地提及；一直通往；把...一直带到...
But then we get there, we figure we've made it.
---- 我们觉得我们已经做到了
We sit back in our comfort zone, and we actually stop do everything that made us successfully.
---- sit back: 休息，不采取行动
And it doesn't take long to go downhill.
---- It doesn't take long to
go downhill 走下坡路，衰退，变坏
Reaching success, I always tried to improve and do good work.
---- Reaching success：为了成功
Reaching success, I was pretty good at coming up with good ideas. Becasue I did all these simple things that led to ideas.
---- come up with:提出，想出，赶上(也经常在All Ears English里听到 come up to my mind)
But then I stopped, because I figured I was this hot-shot guy. I shouldn't have to work at ideas, they should just come like magic.
---- hot-shot: someone who is dazzlingly skilled in any field. (dazzlingly:耀眼地，灿烂地)
come like magic
And the only thing that came was creative block. I couldn't come up with any idea.
---- 创造力阻塞
...and ignored the money. Then all this money started pouring in.
---- pouring in (你若盛开，money自来)
And suddenly I was on the phone to my stockbroker and my real estate agent, when I should have been talking to my clients.
---- on the phone to: 与...通电话
stockbroker：股票经纪人
real estate：不动产，房地产
should have been...
But then I got into stuff that I didn't love.
---- get into: 进入，陷入，穿上，习惯于
Well, soon a black cloud formed over my head.
---- 头脑被阴云笼罩
and here I was, outwardly very successful, but inwardly very depressed.
---- 我表面看起来成功，但内心非常消沉。
It didn't help.
so I went to my doctor.
----- went to(类似turn to的感觉)
It's true what they say, and I didn't believe it until it happened to me.
---- 人们说的是真的，我以前不相信，直至亲身经历
But money can't buy happiness.
No. But it can buy prozac.
--- 百忧解：一种治疗精神抑郁的药物
And he put me on anti-depressants.
--- 于是他让我吃抗抑郁药片。
put me on....
And yeah, the black faded a little bit, but so did all the work, because I was just floating along.
----乌云似乎有点消散了，但工作也是
歌曲<love me like you do>里有一句：Fading in, fading out, on the edge of paradise(渐隐，渐现天堂之口)
float along:四处飘荡
I couldn't care less if clients ever called.
--- 我根本不在乎客户是否与我联系。
Coudn't care less: （不能关心更少了，关心少到不能再少了）根本不关心
Well, it didn't take long for busines to drop like a rock.
--- 很快，我的事业一落千丈。
It was down to just the two of us, and we were about to go under.
--- go under:破产，沉没，屈服，失败
to cut a long story short, did all the things that took me back to success.
--- 长话短说
But it wasn't a quick trip.
--- 但那不是条高速公路。
But in the end, business grew bigger than ever.
----- grew bigger
And when I went back to following these eight principles, the black cloud over my head disappered altogether
----- altogether （完全地，总共，总而言之，整个，裸体）.
Passion work focus push ideas improve, serve, persist
And I woke up one day and I said, “ I don't need Prozac anymore”.
And I threw it away and haven't needed it since.
----- woke up one day 某天醒来
since在这单独用就可以
It really looks more like this. It's a continuous journey.
----看起来更像....
And if we want to avoid "success-to-failure-syndrome"
---- 从成功到失败症
syndrome：综合症，综合症状，并发症状，校验子，并发位
We just keep following these eight principles.
----- keep following
Because that is not only how we achieve success, it's how we sustain it.
So here is to your continued success.
