Just Jeremy Lin. What’s the secret to his success? Positive role models, says Lin. 有多少華裔美國人正在NBA打拼呢? 答案是:只有林書豪，他成功的要訣是什麼? 林說: 擁有積極正向的榜樣 The Houston Rockets point guard Lin explained the reason for his charity work in an interview with CSN Houston. He said how people are raised affects who they become and their character. 火箭隊控衛林書豪，在接受CSN Houston專訪的時候說明了之所以想致力於慈善工作的原因 他認為，人在成長過程中，被養育及教導的方式，會影響到未來人格和個性的形成 “For me, I know for a fact if I didn’t have certain people in my life telling me what to do, what not to do, if I didn’t have positive role models in my life, who knows where I’d be or what I’d be?” said the 24-year-old Houston Rockets point guard. “It’s a big part of why I’m able to be in the NBA today. It’s because of people that are around me.” 對我而言，我很清楚的知道，要是我生命中沒有一群人，願意告訴我什麼該做、什麼不該뀊或是沒有一個可以效法的正向榜樣，誰知道我現在會在哪裡?或是變成什麼樣子? 今天我能夠站上NBA這個舞台，就是因為有一群這樣的人在我身邊! Seeing the needs for role model in this society, Lin founded his charity foundation, the Jeremy Lin Foundation, during his first season in Houston. At a kick-off party during the NBA All-Star weekend, his foundation generated more than $150,000 in funds. Workshop Houston, Yellowstone Academy, and PAIR were chosen in aid from the Foundation. 因為看見了這個社會對榜樣的需要，在休士頓的第一個球季，林建立了一個他的慈善機構 在全明星周末的開幕活動上，成功募得超過15萬美金的善款 目前啾咪林基金會主要資助Workshop Houston、Yellowstone Academy以及PAIR等團體 Lin shared his desire to be a positive role model. “I want to hopefully be able to do that and serve and love these kids and to be able to just share God’ s love with them and I think if the Foundation, if we can make a little bit of change in a couple of kids’ lives, I think it’ll be well worth it.” 林分享了他想成為一個正向榜樣的渴望 我希望自己能夠去服務、愛這群孩子，和他們分享上帝的愛 如果這個機構、如果我們有能力去改變一些孩子們的生活，我相信那會是值得的 As a positive role model in giving back in the society, Lin is able to show his influence because of his performance on the court, especially his leadership when he led the New York Knicks from a series of losses to a winning streak earlier last year. 身為一個回饋社會的好榜樣，林能夠透過在球場上的表現，發揮他的影響力 尤其是他的領導潛力，去年球季，當紐約尼克處於連敗時， 他跳出來帶領球隊打出了一波神奇的連勝 Lin shared in an interview with Taiwan-based Good TV that during the NBA draft pick he was very disappointed when no teams picked him. However, Dallas Mavericks Head Coach Donnie Nelson, who is a strong Christian, called to invite him to play for the summer league team. Lin recalled what Nelson said, “Just remember that God has a perfect plan for you. This can be just another stumbling block or barrier that you have to overcome. God is sovereign.” 林在接受台灣的電視台-好消息TV專訪的時候，和他們分享了當年參與選秀的心路歷程 2010年選秀會中沒有任何一隊挑選他，讓他感到很失落 不過，那時的小牛GM(編按:原文誤植為教練)，同時也是一個虔誠的基督徒，唐尼尼爾森 打電話邀請他參加夏季聯盟，林回想起尼爾森這樣對他說， "只要記得，上帝早就替你安排了完美的計畫，這只不過是你必須去克服的絆腳石或阻礙 一切都在上帝的掌握之中" With the support of his family and the church family, Lin has learned to stay focused on the Bible’s message of how God takes bad and tough situations to teach us and draw us closer to Him, he told Good TV. 他告訴好消息TV，因為有家人和教會夥伴的支持，他學會專注了解聖經中的訊息 像是上帝如何用不好的或困難的狀況引導人們，並拉近人們與祂的距離 Moreover, Lin said after he was drafted to play for Golden State Warriors, many second-guessed his decision to play in NBA. “I just had so many voices telling me what I was supposed to do. But my family and agent were Christians. We tried to immerse ourselves in the Word and tried to read the scripture and draw out what God wanted us to learn. And that’s what I really tried to focus on.” 林還說，當他被金州勇士選中後，有很多的事後諸葛在評論他堅持打NBA的決定 "那時有很多的不同的意見在告訴我該怎麼做，但我家人和經紀人都是基督徒 我們試著專注在道(編按: Word在聖經中翻譯為道，有道路、法則之意)中 然後去體會聖經裡的文字，找出上帝希望我們學到什麼，這就是當時我試著聚焦的事" While Lin’s performances in the playoffs were below his expectations coupled with a chest injury, Lin has expressed his goals to improve his overall game during the offseason. He will be working on getting healthy, becoming a better all-around shooter, and becoming a better defender. 雖然林的在今年季後賽的表現因為胸部的傷勢而不如外界對他的預期 但他也強調，在休賽季時的目標就是要強化她在比賽中的綜合表現 他將會努力保持健康、苦練跳投以及學習成為更好的防守者 --
