馬克?扎克伯格：理想主義是好事，但你要做好被誤解的準備

It’s good to be idealistic. But be prepared to be misunderstood. Anyone working on a big vision will get called crazy, even if you end up right. Anyone working on a complex problem will get blamed for not fully understanding the challenge, even though it’s impossible to know everything upfront. Anyone taking initiative will get criticized for moving too fast, because there’s always someone who wants to slow you down.
其實，理想主義是好事，但你要做好被誤解的準備。任何為了更大愿景工作的人都可能會被稱為瘋子，即使你最終獲得成功。任何處理復雜問題的人都會因為不能全面了解挑戰(zhàn)而被指責，即便你不可能事先了解一切。任何抓住主動權(quán)先行一步的人都會因為步子太快而受到批評，因為總是有人想讓你慢下來。
史蒂夫?喬布斯：不要按照別人的意愿去活，這是浪費時間

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
你們的時間都有限，所以不要按照別人的意愿去活，這是浪費時間。不要囿于成見，那是在按照別人設(shè)想的結(jié)果而活。不要讓外界的聒噪淹沒自己的心聲。最主要的是，要勇于追隨自己的內(nèi)心和直覺。它們早就知道你到底想成為什么樣的人，其他都是次要的。
杰夫?貝佐斯：我不會為失敗的嘗試而遺憾，但是我總是因為不去嘗試的決定而備受煎熬
I didn't think I'd regret trying and failing. And I suspected I would always be haunted by a decision to not try at all.
我認為我不會為失敗的嘗試而遺憾，但是我總是因為不去嘗試的決定而備受煎熬?！ ?
Will inertia be your guide, or will you follow your passions?
你們是按部就班，還是追逐夢想?
Will you follow dogma, or will you be original?
你們會墨守陳規(guī)，還是勇于創(chuàng)新?

Will you wilt under criticism, or will you follow your convictions?
你們會屈從折服，還是堅守信念?
Will you bluff it out when you're wrong, or will you apologize?
你們會掩飾錯誤，還是知錯就改?
Will you guard your heart against rejection, or will you act when you fall in love?
面對愛情時，你們會因害怕拒絕而掩飾內(nèi)心，還是會勇往直前?
Will you play it safe, or will you be a little bit swashbuckling?
你們想要波瀾不驚地活著，還是想要乘風破浪?
When it's tough, will you give up, or will you be relentless?
你們會在嚴峻的現(xiàn)實之下選擇放棄，還是會義無反顧地前行?
Will you be a cynic, or will you be a builder?
你們要做憤青，還是做實干家?
Will you be clever at the expense of others, or will you be kind?
你們要耍小聰明占便宜，還是選擇做個善良的人?
JK?羅琳：一個人能幸福，是因他知道人生不是一份漂亮的成績單

So given a Time Turner, I would tell my 21-year-old self that personal happiness lies in knowing that life is not a check-list of acquisition or achievement. Your qualifications, your CV, are not your life, though you will meet many people of my age and older who confuse the two. Life is difficult, and complicated, and beyond anyone's total control, and the humility to know that will enable you to survive its vicissitudes.
如果給我一部時間機器，我會告訴21歲的自己，一個人能幸福，是因為他知道人生不是一份漂亮的成績單，你的證書、簡歷，都不是你的生活，雖然你會碰到很多與我同齡或更老一點的人今天依然還在混淆兩者。生活是如此艱辛復雜，任何人都無法掌控它。明白了這一點，你就能夠?qū)櫲璨惑@。
艾倫?德詹尼斯：活得誠實！別逼自己去做不是真正的你

So In conclusion, when I was younger I thought success was something different. I thought when I grow up, I want to be famous. I want to be a star. I want to be in movies. When I grow up I want to see the world, drive nice cars, I want to have groupies.
我的結(jié)論是，當我年輕時，對成功的定義不同，我認為我長大后要出名，要當明星，拍電影。當我長大后，我想要去看世界，開好車，有一群死黨。
But my idea of success is different today. And as you grow, you'll realise the definition of success changes. For many of you, today, success is being able to hold down 20 shots of tequila. For me, the most important thing in your life is to live your life with integrity, and not to give into peer pressure. To try to be something that you're not. To live your life as an honest and compassionate person. To contribute in some way.
但今時今日，我對成功的定義變了。而當你逐漸長大后，你就會發(fā)現(xiàn)這點。對很多人來說，成功的定義是能灌下20杯龍舌蘭。對我來說，生命中最重要的是：活得真實！不要迫于旁人的壓力去做不真實的自己，要活得正直，有憐憫之心，在某些方面有所貢獻。
So to conclude my conclusion: follow your passion, stay true to yourself. Never follow anyone else's path, unless you're in the woods and you're lost and you see a path, and by all means you should follow that. Don't give advice, it will come back and bite you in the ass. Don't take anyone's advice. So my advice to you is to be true to yourself and everything will be fine.
因此，結(jié)論的結(jié)論是：追隨熱情，忠于自我，絕不要追隨別人的腳步，除非你在森林里迷路時看到一條路，那你一定是要跟上的。別給人忠告，這么做可能自找苦頭，別接受任何人的忠告。所以…我要給大家的忠告是：做真實的你，一切都會沒事的。
