58.恰当展现自己

58.恰当展现自己

恰当展现自己。无须在每个人面前都显示你的才能。不要使出不必要的力气。不要浪费脑力,更不要浪费体力。老练的养鹰人只放够用的鹰去捕猎。如你今天展现太多,明天则不再有可展示之物。你总要留些新奇的东西,让人眼前一亮。每天展现新鲜之物,人们则会对你始终抱有期待,无法探知你才能的深浅。

58.Adapt yourself to your company

Adapt yourself to your company. There is no need to show your ability before everyone. Employ no more force than is necessary. Let there be no unnecessary expenditure either of knowledge or of power. The skilful falconer only flies enough birds to serve for the chase. If there is too much display today there will be nothing to show tomorrow. Always have some novelty with which to dazzle. To show something fresh each day keeps expectation alive and conceals the limits of capacity.
