21、Dear 17-year-old self,

When your Lakers’ (洛杉矶湖人队) dream comes true tomorrow, you need to think out a way to invest (投资) in the future of your family and friends. This sounds simple, but you have to take some time to think it over.

I said invest. I did not say give. Let me explain.

Just giving material things to your siblings (兄弟姐妹) and friends may seem to be right decision. You love them, and they were always there for your giving up, so it’s only right that they should share your success and all that comes with it. Y ou buy them a car, a big house, and pay all of their bills. You want them to live a comfortable life, right?

But that is not the truth.

You will come to understand that you were taking care of them because it made you feel good to see them smiling. That was very selfish (自私的) of you. While you were feeling satisfied (满意的) with yourself, you were slowly eating away at their own dreams and ambitions (抱负). You were adding material things to their lives, but taking away the most precious (珍贵的) gifts of all: independence (独立) and growth.

You are going to be the leader of the family. This includes making hard choices, even if your siblings and friends do not understand them at the time.

Invest in their future; don’t just give.

Use your success, wealth and influence to put them in the best position to realize their own dreams and find their true purposes. Put them through school, set them up with job interviews and help them become leaders on their own.

I’m writing to you now so that you can begin this process quickly because your success has led to anger and jealousy (嫉妒) among your family.

There’s much more I could write to you, but at 17, I know you don’t have the attention span (注意力持续时间) to sit through 2, 000 words. Trust me, setting things up right from the beginning will avoid a ton of tears and heartache.

Much love,

Kobe
