Today's advice comes from serial entrepreneur Jen Groover in her piece on Entrepreneur:
今天MBA小課堂的嘉賓是連續(xù)創(chuàng)業(yè)家Jen Groover,她在自己的著作《創(chuàng)業(yè)家》中這樣說道:

"Entrepreneurship is really a journey of self-transformation so you really need to be working on yourself more than your business."
“創(chuàng)業(yè)其實是一次自我改變的旅程。所以,比起你的事業(yè),你更需要關(guān)注的是你自己。”

Groover advises that entrepreneurs start their mornings off with something that "invigorates" them, because this is the key to "identifying a pattern that accelerates your energy throughout the day."
Groover建議創(chuàng)業(yè)者們在早上先做那些能夠“激勵鼓舞”自己的事情,因為這對于“找出一種讓自己一整天都精力充沛的方法”來說至關(guān)重要。

Without knowing yourself in this way, you'll easily break down and won't be able to handle the long hours that goes hand-in-hand with entrepreneurship.
如果在這一點上不能自知的話,作為凡事都要親力親為的創(chuàng)業(yè)者來說,你將很容易被打垮,而且無法勝任長時間的工作。

You also need to identify activities or situations that bring you down or causes you to tire more quickly. This is the only way you'll build your personal stamina and can truly put in the physical strength and brain power needed in running a business.
你還要清楚知道什么樣的工作和情形會讓你更快地感覺到疲憊。這是讓你保持個人精力充沛的唯一方法,也能夠讓你正確認識到在創(chuàng)業(yè)的過程中該如何分配自己的精力和腦力。

"Your stamina is like a muscle — it's something you have to work out everyday."
“人的精力就和肌肉一樣,每天都需要鍛煉?!?/div>
