名校励志英语演讲 94:如何实现你的梦想(在线收听

   Everyone overuses the word "love." "I love your shoes." "I just love the new Justin Guarini CD." "I really love those little things they put on the chicken sandwiches at Subway." In Hollywood, they say "Love ya, babe!" So, OK, I get it. It's just the way people talk and it's probably harmless, but you shouldn't forget the real thing. The real thing is great. It's just not so easy with actual human beings, but if you work at it and you get it right, it will make you happier than anything else you do in your life.

  每个人都过度使用“爱”这个字。“我爱你的鞋。”“我只爱贾斯汀?古安瑞尼的新专辑。”“我真的很爱地铁里他们放在鸡肉三明治上的东西。”在好莱坞,他们说“爱你,宝贝!”所以,我明白了,这只是人们聊天的方法并且也许并没有什么坏处,但你不应该忘记真正的爱。真正的爱是伟大的。做人不容易,但是如果能为人生不断奋斗,并且朝着正确的方向前进,你就会比做其他任何事情更感觉幸福。
  Think of the world as a big glass of water with some salt in it. You have a choice. You can try to pick out all the salt or you can keep pouring in more water so eventually it gets less bitter. As you begin your new journey, you can try to remove everything that you find distasteful in the world, or you can just pour in more love. It's the only thing that the more you give away, the more you have.
  把这个世界想象成一大杯放了盐的水。你可以做出选择,你可以把里面所有的盐都挑出来,你也可以往里面倒入更多的水使其不那么苦涩。就像你开始一段新的旅程一样,你可以费力去把所有令人不快的东西都清除掉,也可以倾注更多的爱。付出越多,得到的就越多,这是唯一的真理。
  So take all that warm, fuzzy stuff you've been hiding and spread it around a little. And then judge yourself not by your accomplishments, but by the happiness of the people around you. If you do that, you can do anything, you can go anywhere, you can fail at anything, and wherever you are, you will find a "there" there, because you'll bring it with you.
  所以,带着所有你一直深藏着的温暖而模糊的爱并把爱传播给周围的人。然后以你周围的人的快乐程度而不要用你所取得的成就来评价自己。如果你能做到这一点,你就可以做成任何事,你可以到任何地方,你能承受任何失败,无论你在哪里,你都能找到“目标”,因为你将把它带在身边。
  I would like to conclude with a sad, but true, story from my childhood.
  我想以童年时一个悲伤但真实的故事结束我的演讲。
  杰里·朱克带给我们的启示
  ...nobody else is playing as much attention to your failure as you are. You're the only ones who are absessed with the importance of your own life. To everyone else, it's just a blip on the radar screen. So just move on.
  ...没有人会像你自己那样对自己的失败那么在意。你是唯一沉湎于你自己重要性的人。对于其他人来说,你只是雷达荧光屏上的一个点。所以,只管前行吧。
  The real thing is great. It's just not so easy with actual beings, but if you work at it and you get it right, it will make you happier than anything else you do in your life.
  真正的爱是伟大的。做人不容易,但是如果能为人生不断奋斗,并且朝着正确的方向前进,你就会比做其他任何事情更感觉幸福。
