1. 堅持夢想
I don' t know what that dream is that you have. I don' t care how disappointing it might be as you' reworking toward that dream.
我不知道你有什么樣的夢。我也不在乎你在逐夢之時它曾令你有多沮喪。
But that dream that you' re holding in your mind - it' s possible.
但我要告訴你,你心中所堅持的那個夢,它是有可能實現(xiàn)的。
Some ofyou already know thatit' S hard. It' S not easy.
你們中有的人應(yīng)該也已經(jīng)知道要實現(xiàn)它很難,的確并不容易。

要改變你的人生,這很難。在逐夢的過程中,你們會遇到各種各樣的困難,沮喪,失敗,痛。
2. 堅持
There will be moments when you are going to doubt yourself. You' II say, "Why?
有時候你會懷疑你自己。你會問: "為什么 ?
Why is this happening to me? I' m just trying to take care of my children, and my mother.
為什么這事會發(fā)生在我身上?我只是想照顧我的孩子,我的母親。
I' m not trying to steal or rob from anybody. How did this have to happen to me?"

The rough times are gonna come, but they will not stay, they will come to pass.
糟糕的日子總會來,但不會停留太長,并終究會過去。
3. 人生目標(biāo)
Many of you fail to seek your purpose in life and you should. You dream and then follow it up with a list of all the reasons why the dream is unachievable. You fill your life with excuses and "I can't." Many great companies were conceived from a dream, nurtured in a garage or basement and grew to be traded on the New York Stock Exchange. Why not you? Why not your dream? The only true limits you experience in life are those you create or those you allow others to impose upon you. If you can dream it, you can do it! .
你們許多人在-生中或許會有找不到人生目標(biāo)的時候,這很正常。你追求自己的夢,跟著出現(xiàn)一大堆告訴你這夢不可能實現(xiàn)的理由。你開始為自己的人生找各種借口,告訴自己“我不行。” 很多大公司都是由一個夢演變而來,從車庫或地下室里發(fā)展成為紐約交易所的上市公司。為什么不是你?為什么不是你的夢?你在人生路上所遇到的那些障礙都是你自己設(shè)置的,要么就是你讓他人施加在你身:上的。夢想還是要有的,萬一實現(xiàn)了呢!
Dreaming is the easy part. Acting on the dream is harder. Recognize that a dream is a journey. On the simplest level, it takes commitment, time, desire, and courage. But rarely is something great easily realized. Dreaming is recognizing and embracing the potential for greatness and seeking it in all areas of your life. Believe in your dreams and your ability to accomplish them. Keep your dreams in front of you.I'm here to challenge you to reach for your dream. Do not be afraid to dream. Never forget, if you can dream it, you can do it! .
有夢想很容易,為夢而行才難。要知道, 一一個夢就是一段旅程。最簡單地說,這夢需要你做出承諾,付出時間,堅定渴望,以吸擁有勇氣。道理很簡單,卻很少有人懂。
夢就是要你意識到并擁抱生活中所有可能的美好。相信你的夢,相信自己能實現(xiàn)它。讓它帶領(lǐng)你。不要忘記,夢想還是要有的,萬一實現(xiàn)了呢!

6. 熱愛生活
However mean your life is,meet it and live it ;do not shun it and call it hardnames.It is not so bad as you suppose.It looks poorest when you are richest.The fault-finder will find faults in paradise.Love your life,poor as it is.You may perhaps have some pleasant,thrilling,glorious hourss,even in a poor-house.The setting sun is reflected from the windows of the alms-house as brightly as from the rich man's abode;the snow melts before its door as early in the spring.
不論你的生活如何卑賤,你要面對它生活,不要躲避它,更別用惡言咒罵它。它不像你那樣壞。你最富有的時候,倒是看似最窮。愛找缺點的人就是到天堂里也能找到缺點。你要愛你的生活,盡管它貧窮。甚至在一個濟(jì)貧院里,你也還有愉快、高興、光榮的時候。夕陽反射在濟(jì)貧院的窗上,像身在富戶人家窗上一樣光亮;在那門前,積雪同在早春融化。
I do not see but a quiet mind may live as contentedly there,and have as cheering thoughts,as in a palace.The town's poor seem to me often to live the most independent lives of any.May be they are simply great enough to receive without misgiving.
我只看到,一個從容的人,在哪里也像在皇宮中一樣,生活得心滿意足而富有愉快的思想。城鎮(zhèn)中的窮人,我看,倒往往是過著最獨立不羈的生活。也許因為他們很偉大,所以受之無愧。
Do not trouble yourself much to get new things,whether clothes or friends,Turn the old,return to them.Things do not change;we change.Sell your clothes and keep your thoughts.
不要找新的花樣,無論是新的朋友或新的衣服,來麻煩你自己。找舊的,回到那里去。萬物不變,是我們在變。你的衣服可以賣掉,但要保留你的思想。
