English term
Become a hustler
English to Spanish
Other
Slang
Estoy traduciendo una página web en la que se habla de emprendimientos y superación personal. En una parte se habla mucho de un hustler. Entiendo que el término se está usando con la connotación positiva de una persona que siempre está en busca de oportunidades y trabaja duro, pero no sé bien cuál sería el término indicado en español. El público para el que va dirigido es hispanoparlantes jóvenes en los Estados Unidos, por lo que no puedo usar términos que solo se usen en un país.
El artículo está lleno de frases como las siguientes:
After Reading this article, you will start thinking like a hustler
You will become a hustler

convertirse en una persona diligente/dinámica/enrgética/emprendedora
Creo que cualquiera de estas posibilidades expresan el espíritu del original. Tengo serias dudas respecto a "oportunista", que generalmente tiene connotaciones negativas.

convertirse en negociante/excelente/ejemplar // en un tremendo negociante
In this context, 'hustler' is clearly positive, which means someone who hustles, who gives it his all and make things happen, striking deals 'left and right,' always on the move in search of his next success.
I hope this helps!

As seen in the Merriam-Webster entry I've just posted in Discussion, and the definitions Tomasso shared as well, 'hustle' and 'hustler' have so many denotations, connotations, and special uses that it and its family form part of an associative web of meaning.
Which meaning was intended? Could the 'article' not be about how to 'hustle' people, that is, 'how to close deal' or 'make the sale'? Or, could it be about how 'to deceive' or 'trick' people (out of their money), as in a pool hustler or others 'working an angle' (as in 3a and 3b below)?
3a: to make strenuous efforts to obtain especially money or business
Our quartet was out hustling … and we knew we stood good to take in a lot of change before the night was over.
— Louis Armstrong
b: to obtain money by fraud or deception
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hustle
And then there's the related 'hustle' as a noun.
2. informal : a dishonest plan for getting money : SCAM
Now, the secret of any hustle is that you have to have information that the other guy doesn't have.
— Paul Newman
… a once-inspired con man on his last hustle …
— Marilyn Stasio
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/hustle
In short, the 'article' could be about 'hustling' or 'how to hustle' in the sense of wheeling and dealing and making good things happen (as in Major League Baseball's Pete Rose being nicknamed 'Charlie Hustle' [before ironically he'd be accused on betting on this own team and banned for life from the sport]), but doing it honestly (again, the irony of 'Charlie Hustle,' who was known for 'hustling' his way on(to) and off of the field and into the dugout for literally decades).
Or it could be an article with a certain special appeal among scam artists and swindlers, as its tips may be very valuable to aspiring hustlers ;)) With so little to go on, it's hard if not impossible to say.
I hope this helps, even if, at this point, its primarily for the site's Glossary.
