Marketing - Management | | English term or phrase: to take out | Act on the Important.
You're determined to move into the quadrant of extraordinary productivity.
Like the brave ant in the picture, you're not going to carry crumbs all your life.
You're going to carry the strawberry.
Choice 2 is about "getting clear on the strawberry"-on what is most important to you.
When you really examine your heart and mind, you get down to the few things that really matter to you and deserve your best and finest effort.
People with the ordinary mindset tend to do what's expected of them and no more.
Doing what's expected *takes enough out of them as it is*.
Why do more than that?
In questo caso, come tradurreste "takes enough out"? Grazie a tutti per l'aiuto. |
| | | (li) esaurisce (abbastanza così com'é) | Explanation:
Letteralmente sarebbe "estrarre", quindi togliere energia.
La traduzione esatta dovrebbe essere poi misurata sul tono generale del testo e sullo stile che hai scelto per tradurlo: un linguaggio meno raffinato vorrebbe un "li spompa", ma puoi spaziare fino a "esaurisce le loro energie" oppure "sottrae loro" abbastanza tempo e/o risorse. |
