名校勵(lì)志英語(yǔ)演講 第88期:如何實(shí)現(xiàn)你的夢(mèng)想

[00:00.29]So, thirty-one years ago today, I drove from Madison, Wisconsin, to Los Angeles, California. 31年前的今天，我駕車(chē)從威斯康辛大學(xué)麥迪遜分校駛往加利福利亞州的洛杉磯。 [00:07.45]On the way, I passed Camp Randall, where my college graduation ceremony was in progress. 途徑蘭德?tīng)栿w育場(chǎng)，當(dāng)時(shí)我們學(xué)院的畢業(yè)典禮正在那兒舉行。 [00:14.59]I thought about going to the ceremony, but it meant I would've arrived in Hollywood one day later, 我曾想過(guò)去參加畢業(yè)典禮，但那就意為著我會(huì)遲到一天到好萊塢。 [00:21.37]and at the time I just didn't see the point. I wanted to get there. 當(dāng)時(shí)，我不知道什么是重點(diǎn)，我只是想到好萊塢去。 [00:27.24]Gertrude Stein once said about Hollywood, "When you get there, there is no 'there' there." That's true. 格特魯格·斯坦因曾經(jīng)這樣形容好萊塢，“當(dāng)你到了那兒的時(shí)候，在那里沒(méi)有‘那里’?！彼稳莘浅４_切。 [00:36.04]However, there will be a swimming pool and tennis court. 但是，那里將會(huì)有游泳池和網(wǎng)球場(chǎng)。 [00:40.19]In the end, though, it's probably not enough to justify a life's journey. 盡管這最后或許不足以證明生命的旅程是否正當(dāng)。 [00:46.53]Getting there, particularly in show business, is tough enough. 在那里，特別是在娛樂(lè)行業(yè)闖蕩是非常艱難的。 [00:52.13]You need a combination of talent, ambition, luck and a willingness to tell actors how beautiful they look today. 你要有才華、野心以及運(yùn)氣，并且還要能心甘情愿地告訴演員們他們今天看上去是多么美麗。 [01:00.03]In retrospect, getting there was the easy part. Finding a "there" there is much harder. 回想過(guò)去，到達(dá)那里相對(duì)比較簡(jiǎn)單，而在這里尋找立足之地就比較困難了。 [01:09.06]So today, before you get into your cars and race off to the rest of your lives, I want to give you some advice on how to get there. 因此，今天在你們坐在車(chē)?yán)餃?zhǔn)備駛往未來(lái)時(shí)，我想給你們提幾點(diǎn)建議，告訴你們?nèi)绾螌?shí)現(xiàn)自己的夢(mèng)想。 [01:18.39]And I want to help make sure that when you get there, you find a "there" there. 我想確保你們到達(dá)那里的時(shí)候，可以找到自己的目標(biāo)，實(shí)現(xiàn)自己的夢(mèng)想。 [01:24.37]To that end, I will give you my five rules to think about, quickly forget, but years from now kick yourself for not having listened to. 為此，我想告訴你們我的5條規(guī)則，供你們思考，以便能盡快實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想。數(shù)年之后，你們懊悔沒(méi)有認(rèn)真聽(tīng)我講，那就只能怪你們自己了。
