超励志演讲：当你觉得生活很艰难时，一定要记住这番话！

Life is hard.  

See it’s hard when you are 49 years old

been working on a job for 17 years 

and they come in and tell you 

you're finished and give you one week’s severance pay

and you got to start all over again.

人生很艰难，尤其当你已经49岁了，在一家公司服务了17年，然后他们走过来告诉你说：你结束了。然后给你一周的遣散费。你只能从头再来。

It's hard when you are married and raising children 

and your children are crawling 

and your husband dies unexpectedly.

It's hard handling just the tragedies of life 

It's hard when you're working on something in 

and you put everything you have in it 

and it doesn’t work out

You lose your moneyand other people's money.

人生艰难，当你结婚了有了孩子，当你的孩子还在学习爬行，你的丈夫却骤然离世。要应付人生中的各种悲剧真的很难。人生艰难，尤其当你在做某件事情时，你倾尽全力去完成它，但终究还是失败了，你赔上了所有的钱还有别人的钱。

It's hard it was rough when I lost my job 

and I could not find a job.

It was humiliating and embarrassing 

borrowing money and then I couldn't pay the money back 

when I told them I would.

That's rough how people look at you

how they respond to you

It's very hard. It's humiliated.

真的很难。当我失去工作的时候生活很艰难。我找不到工作，我感到羞耻和难为情。当我跟别人借钱时，尽管我告诉他们我会准时还钱，最后却无力偿还。真的很难，别人怎么看待你,他们怎样对待你。真的很难渡过。我觉得很羞耻。

Here's what I discovered

that happens to you in life

that you will go through things

and while you're going through them

you can't understand why it's happened to you

but after you go through it

and you get back and you look at it and you say oh

now I understand why I needed that lesson

Have you ever had it happened to you?

Raise your hand, and did it ever happen to you?

that I couldn't understand it there

but after I got through it then I saw that

that was prepared me for bigger and better things.

这是我对人生遭遇的启发。你会经历一些事，当你在经历这些事时，你不理解为什么这些事会发生在你身上。唯有当你渡过低潮之后，当你回头审视这些事时，你说：哦，我明白了上天为什么要让我得到这个教训。你们有经历过吗？举起手，如果你曾经发生在你身上。我那时无法理解，当我经历过，我明白了，这是为了让我准备好，去迎接人生更大的责任和更美好的事情。

As you go through the challenges of life

and you look at it and embrace whatever comes to you

don't run from it,step toward it.

Don't try and duck it like most people do.

See most people want it easy

See if you easy come, easy what? easy go. 

See but when you go at what you're going to deal with

and you deal with the difficulties of it

when you handle those hot things close at hand

making those hard decisions right now

that you don't wanna make.

Learning those things that you don't like to do

but you know that in order for you to get where you wanna go

this is one of the hoops that you have to flip through.

当你正经历人生中的挑战时，你要面对它，拥抱它，无论是什么难关，不要逃避，勇敢面对它。别试图躲避，就像大多数人一样。你发现了吗？大多数人只想面对容易的事情，来得容易去得也快。当你去面对应该面对的事情，去应付所遇到的难题时，着手去处理眼前的这些困难，做出让你不安的坚难决定，学习那些你不喜欢做的事情。但你心里清楚，为了达到你想要完成的目标，这是其中一个你必须要跨越的障碍。

And I'm saying to you whatever you gotta do, do it

because if you don't,life is gonna whoop you

until you surrender and say okay all right, all right, all right

I’ll cooperate. Okay I’ll learn. okay

They had wear me out a long time.

So I’ve been taught then do it hard.

Now, what do you how do you hang in there, during the hard difficult times.

You must have faith. You've got to believe in yourself.

You've got to believe in your abilities.

You've got to believe in your service, your company,your ideas, unquestionably.

You've got to have faith

and that faith gives you patience

that is not going to happen as quickly as you want it to happen.

A lot of things are gonna happen that will catch you off guard.

and so therefore you've got to deal with and handle it as it comes

And not only that

but that faith and patience drives you into action.

You've got to keep moving and keep plugging away

让我告诉你吧，无论你想做什么，就去做吧，因为如果你不做，生活将把你逼到墙角，直到你认输。说：好的，够了，够了，我知道了，我现在就去学习，行了吧！人生折磨了我好久，我已经学会怎么去面对困境，现在你是怎么撑过去的呢？你一定要有信念。你一定要相信你自己。你一定要相信你自己的能力。你一定要相信你的服务，你的公司，你的想法，毫无置疑地相信。你一定要有坚定的信念，信念会给予你耐心。当事情并没有如你预期般很快地发生，很多事情在你毫无防备的情况下发生，你只好去面对它们，处理它们，不只是这样，这份信念和耐心会给予你行动力，你必须得持续前进。

In the Far East

they have something that's called the Chinese bamboo tree.

The Chinese bamboo tree takes five years to grow.

They have to water and fertilize the ground where it is every day

and it doesn't break through the ground until the fifth year.

Okay? But once it breaks through the ground within five weeks it grows 90 feet tall.

Now the question is: Does it grow 90 feet tall in five weeks？or five years？

The answer is obvious. It grows 90 feet tall in five years.

Because at any time that person stopped

watering and nurturing and fertilizing that tree

that bamboo tree would have died in the ground.

And I can see people coming out talking to a guy

out there watering and fertilizing the ground

that's not showing anything.

“Hey, what you doing?

you've been out here a long time, man.

and the conversation in the neighborhood is

you grow on a Chinese bamboo tree, that right?

Yeah that's right

Well um even Ray Charles and Steve Wonder can see ain't nothing showing

在遥远的东方，有一种东西叫做竹子。竹子需要五年的时间成长，需要每天浇水和施肥，但是要等到第五年，它才会破土而出。了解吗？但是当它从泥土里长出来之后，在五周的时间里，它会长到90英尺高。问题是它用了多久长到90英尺高？是五周吗？还是五年？答案是显而易见的，它用了五年时间长到了90英尺高。因为在任何时候，只要种植者停止浇灌栽培，停止施肥，这竹子就没机会从泥土里长出来。我可以相象那些人跟种植者之间的对话。看着他每天向着泥土浇水施肥，却什么也长不出来。”嘿，你在那干嘛呢？你已经在这里很久了，” 那些邻居跟他的对话是：听说你在种中国的竹子，是吗？“是啊！没错！”“嗯，连瞎子都看得出这里什么也没有吧”

You know that's not people gonna do you

so how long you've been working on this？

how long have you been working on your dream？

and you have nothing to show.

This is all you've got to show?

People gonna do that to you.

And some people, ladies and gentlemen, they stop

because they don't see instant results

it doesn't happen quickly they stop

oh no no no you got to keep on watering your dream.

and when it begin to happen，they stop laughing they said

Look，whoa look here, it’s, lookup

Hey man, you know, I know you could do it

Look,you got a job here?

你懂得有些人就会这样对你。你在这件事情上努力了多久？你在你的梦想上努力了多久？你还没做出成绩。难道你就只有这一点点的成绩？别人就会这样对待你。各位女士们先生们，有些人就这样放弃了，因为他们看不到立竿见影的成果，还没有看到成绩，他们就放弃了。哦，不，不，不！你得向你的梦想浇水灌溉啊。当开始看到成绩时，他们就停止嘲笑你了，他们开始说：看，哇，看看这是谁？兄弟，我就知道你肯定能做到。你这里还要请人吗？

See during those hard times

we didn’t know how you're gonna make payroll

During those times, when you fail and things didn't work out

they were nowhere to be found.

You know what I discovered

when you’re working at your dream

somebody said: the harder the better,the sweeter the victory.

Oh, it's sweet to you. It's good to you. Why？

See when you when it's hard and there's a struggle

see what you become in a process is more important than the dream.

That's far more important

The kind of person you become

the character that you build

the courage that you develop

the faith that you're manifesting

oh it's something that you get up in the morning

you look yourself in the mirror

you’re a different kind of person

you walk with a different kind of spirit.

people know that you know what life is,

that you have embraced life.

You know it was hard, but you did it hard.

在经历难关的时候，没有人知道你是怎么给员工付薪资的。在坚难的时候，当你经历失败的时候，这些人连影子都看不到。你知道我发现了什么？当你正在为梦想努力的时候，有人说：越难越好，成功将越甜美。这对你来说是甜美的，对你是很好的，为什么？当你在克服困难的时候，你在这过程中成为什么样的人，比你完成梦想更重要。远远更加重要。你成为什么样的人，你塑造出的个性，你建立起来的勇气，你展示出来的信念。就像是当你早上醒来，看着镜子里的自己，你已经脱胎换骨，展现出来的是不一样的精神。别人知道，你知道什么是人生，你接受了人生，你知道这不容易，但你还是克服了，
