When you love your job you don’t gossip about the personal failings of others. You talk about their successes, because you’re happy for them – and because you’re happy with yourself.

7. You don’t think about surviving. You think about winning.

你當然也那么想……但在某些時候你的工作對你來說不僅僅意味著一張工資單。而當你離開這份工作時，及時你面對著高得多的薪水……還是會想念它的。
12. You think, “I hope I get to…” instead of, “I hope I don’t have to…”
