名人英语演讲稿范文 1. steve jobs史蒂芬乔布斯ceo of apple computers 苹果电脑ceostanford university 斯坦福大学june 12, XXXX年6月12日remembering that you are going to die is the best way i know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. you are already naked. there is no reason not to follow your heart.your time is limited, so dont waste it living someone elses life. dont be trapped by dogma which is living with the results of other peoples thinking. dont 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。记着你总会死去,这是我知道的预防患得患失的最好措施。赤条条来去无牵挂,还有什么理由不随你的心?!你的时间是有限的,所以不要把时间浪费在过他人的生活上。不要被教条所困使自己的生活受限于她人的思想结果。不要让她人的意见淹没了你自己内心的声音。最主要的是,要有勇气跟随你的内心和直觉,它们好歹已经知道你真正想让自己成为何。其它的,全部是次要的。2. david foster wallacenovelist 小说家kenyon college 肯尼恩学院may 21, XXXX年5月21日there are these two young fish swimming along and they happen to meet an older fish swimming the other way, who nods at them and says, “morning, boys. hows the water?” and the two young fish swim on for a bit, and then eventually one of them looks over at the other and goes, “what the hell is water?”. simple awareness; awareness of what is so real and essential, so hidden in plain sight all around us, all the time, that we have to keep reminding ourselves over and over:“this is water。”“this is water。”it is unimaginably hard to do this, to stay conscious and alive in the adult world day in and day out。有两条小鱼一起在水里游,碰到一条老鱼迎面游过来。老鱼向她们点点头,并说:“早上好,孩子们。水怎么样?”这两条小鱼继续往前游了一会儿后,其中一条小鱼实在忍不住了,看了一下另一条小鱼,问道:“水到底是什么东西?”简单的意识;对我们生活中如此真实、如此必不可少、无处不在、无时不在的事物的意识,需要我们一遍一遍地提醒自己:“这是水。”“这是水。”天天全部保持意识清醒而鲜活,在成人世界中做到这点,是不可想象地难。3. michael uslan迈克尔奥斯兰movie producer 电影制片人indiana university 印第安纳大学may 06, XXXX年5月6日you must believe in yourself and in your work. when our first batman movie broke all those boxoffice records, i received a phone call from that united artists exec who, years before, had told me i was out of my mind. now he said, “michael, im just calling to congratulate you on the success of batman. i always said you were a visionary。” you see the point here dont believe them when they tell you how bad you are or how terrible your ideas are, but also, dont believe them when they tell you how wonderful you are and how great your ideas are. just believe in yourself and youll do just fine. and, oh yes, dont then forget to market yourself and your ideas. use both sides of your brain.you must have a high threshold for frustration. take it from the guy who was turned down by every studio in hollywood. you must knock on doors until your knuckles bleed. doors will slam in your face. you must pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and knock again. its the only way to achieve your goals in life。你必需相信你自己,对自己的工作充满信心。当我们的第一部电影蝙蝠侠创下史无前例的票房纪录时,我接到了艺术家联合会会长的电话,她在数年之前曾说我疯了。现在她说:“迈克尔,我给你打电话祝贺蝙蝠侠的成功。我总说你是一位有远见的人。”你看,关键在这里,当她们说你有多差,你的想法有多糟的时候,不要信她们的话,同时,当她们告诉你你有多么了不起,你的想法多美妙时,也不要相信她们。你就只相信你自己,这么你就能做好。还有,那就是,不要忘记推销你自己和你的想法。左右大脑你全部得用。要能经受得住挫败。这是被好莱坞每一家制片厂拒绝过的人的经验。你必需去敲一扇扇的门,直到指关节流血。大门会在你面前砰然关上,你必需重振旗鼓,弹去身上的灰尘,再敲下一扇门。这是实现你人生目标的唯一措施。4. woody hayes伍迪海耶斯college fooball coach 大学橄榄球教练ohio state university 俄亥俄州立大学may 14, 19861986年5月14日in football we always said that the other team couldnt beat us. we had to be sure that we didnt beat ourselves. and thats what people have to do, too make sure they dont beat themselves. youll find out that nothing that comes easy is worth a dime. as a matter of fact, i never saw a football player make a tackle with a smile on his face. never。在橄榄球场上,我们总是说其它队战胜不了我们。我们必需做到不把自己打垮。全部人也全部必需这么做,确保自己不要被自己打垮。你会发觉,来得轻易的东西总是一文不值。实际上,我历来没有看到哪位橄榄球运动员是带着微笑完成阻截的。历来没有。5. bradley whitford布兰德利惠特福德actor

preparation in the trash.number four: you are capable of more than you think.number five: listen.number six: take action.you have a choice. you can either be a passive victim of circumstance or you

despair。第一,爱上过程,结果自然会来。第二,做你的事。第三,一旦准备好,就付诸行动。第四,你能做的,超出了你的想象。第五,聆听。第六,采取行动。你有一个选择。要么你成为环境的被动受害者,要么你主动成为自己生活的英雄。行动能够消除冷漠、玩世不恭和绝望。6. jerry zucker杰瑞朱克director, movie producer 导演、电影制片人university of wisconsin 威斯康辛大学may 17, XXXX年5月17日it doesnt matter whether your dream came true if you spent your whole life sleeping.ask yourself one question: if i didnt have to do it perfectly, what would i try?nobody else is paying as much attention to your failures as you are. youre the only one who is obsessed with the importance of your own life. to everyone else, its just a blip on the radar screen, so just move on。假如你一生全部在睡觉,你的梦想是否实现就无关紧要了。问你自己一个问题:假如我不是必需做得完美,那我还努力什么呢?没有些人会像你自己那样对自己的失败那么在意。你是唯一一个能追求自己的生活意义的人。对于其它全部人来说,你只是雷达荧光屏上的一个光点。因此,只管前行吧。7. earl bakken厄尔巴肯businessman 商人university of hawaii 夏威夷大学may 16, XXXX年5月16日by all reckoning, the bumblebee is aerodynamically unsound and shouldnt be able to fly. yet, the little bee gets those wings going like a turbojet and flies to every plant its chubby little body can land on to collect all the nectar it can hold.bumblebees are the most persistent creatures. they dont know they cant fly, so they just keep buzzing around.never give in to pessimism. dont know that you cant fly, and you will soar like an eagle. dont end up regretting what you did not do because you were too lazy or too frightened to soar. be a bumblebee! and soar to the heavens. you can do it。不论怎么考量,大黄蜂从空气动力学上讲是不健全、不应该会飞的。不过,这种小蜜蜂却像涡轮喷气飞机一样地展翅飞行,飞到它圆乎乎的身体能够降落的任何植物上去采蜜。大黄蜂最坚韧的生灵,它们不知道自己不能飞,所以它们只管四处嗡嗡地飞个不停。千万不要消极。不知道你不会飞,你会像鹰一样高高翱翔。不要到头来后悔自己因为太懒或太怕高飞而无所作为。做一只大黄蜂。飞到天上去。你能做到的。8. john walsh约翰沃尔什author and art historian 作家和艺术历史学家wheaton college 惠顿学院XXXX年do one thing at a time. give each experience all your attention. try to resist being distracted by other sights and sounds, other thoughts and tasks, and when it is, guide your mind back to what youre doing.im not warning against learning many things on many subjects. my warning is against distraction, whether you invite it or just let it happen. in baseball, highpercentage hitters know better: its “focus” they talk about, and they prize it as much as strength. psychologists describe skilled rock climbers and tennis players and pianists as going beyond focus, to what they have called a “flow” experience, a sense of absorption with the rock or the ball or the music in which the “me versus it” disappears and theres a kind of oneness with the task that brings a joyful higher awareness, as well as successful performance. ive had these experiences, too little but not too late, and probably you have, too. they are a supreme kind of pleasure. you will have more of them if you do one thing at a time。一次做一件事情。全力关注你每一次的经历。决不要被其余声色之物和其它想法、任务分心。一旦分心了,引导你的注意力重新回到你做的事情上。我不是在反对学习多个学科的众多知识。我所警告的是分心和干扰,不论是你主动招惹的,还是让它发生的。在棒球场上,得分高的击球员对此有更深体会:她们谈的是“专注”,她们把它看得跟力量一样主要。在心理学家的描述中,高技能的攀岩者、球运动员、钢琴家已经超越了专注,达成了她们所称的经验之“流”,那是一个跟岩石、球或音乐融为一体的感觉,“我和它”已然消失,跟任务合二为一,给人以更高水平的愉悦体验,而不但仅是成功地完成了任务。我有这种体验,即使极少,但来得还不算迟,或许你也有这种体验。这是一个最高形式的愉快。假如你一次专注于一件事情,你就会有更多这么的体验。9. david l. calhoun大卫卡尔霍恩businessman 商人virginia tech 弗吉尼亚理工大学may 13, XXXX年5月13日i worked for a guy named jack welch for twenty years at ge. he was, and is, a great mentor as much as a great leader. if i had to isolate the subject he spoke most passionately to me about, over all those years, it is that self confidence is the most important, the indispensable characteristic of success, the common characteristic shared by great leaders whose talents may have varied widely in most other respects.so, how do you get it? what is the secret to developing your own brand of selfconfidence?first, you must resolve to grow intellectually, morally, technically, and professionally every day through your entire work and family life. you need to ask yourself every day: am i really up to speed or falling behind? am i still learning? or am i just doing the same stuff on a different day or as otis redding sings, “sitting on the dock of the bay. watching the tide roll away?”the lust for learning is ageindependent.another important way to build your confidence is to seek out the toughest jobs, the most daunting scientific, engineering or management challenges。我在通用企业为一个名叫杰克韦尔奇的家伙工作了20年。她既是一位伟大的领导者,也是一位伟大的导师,过去是,现在也是。假如我必需找出那些年里她充满激情地对我说的最关键的话,那就是:自信是最主要的,它是成功必不可少的,是全部在其它多数方面才能可能大相径庭的伟大领导者的共同特征。怎样取得自信?培养你特有的自信的秘诀是什么?首先,你必需下决心天天全部经过你的工作和家庭生活去取得智力、道德、技术和专业上的提升。你需要天天问自己:我是在加速前进还是在后退?我还在学习吗?我是在天天反复做一样的事情或就像奥蒂斯瑞汀所唱的那样,“坐在海湾的码头上,看潮起潮落”?对学习的渴望是不受年纪限制的。培养自信的另一个主要路径是寻求最难做的工作,最棘手的科学、工程或管理方面的难题。10. marc s. lewis马克刘易斯clinical psychology professor 临床心理学教授university of texas at austin 得克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校may 19, XXXX年5月19日there are times when you are going to do well, and times when youre going to fail. but neither the doing well, nor the failure is the measure of success. the measure of success is what you think about what youve done. let me put that another way: the way to be happy is to like yourself and the way to like yourself is to do only things that make you proud.theres that old joke, not very funny, that goes, “no matter where you go, there you are。” thats true. the person who youre with most in life is yourself and if you dont like yourself youre always with somebody you dont like。有时候你会干得很漂亮,有时候你会失败,但二者全部不是衡量成功的标准。衡量成功的标准是你自己对你的所为怎么看。让我换一句话说:让自己幸福的措施是喜爱你自己,喜爱自己的措施是只做让你自己感到骄傲的事情。有一个老笑话,不是很好笑,它是这么说的:“不论你走到哪里,你全部在那里。”这是真的。你一生中跟你在一起最多的人是你自己,假如你不喜爱你自己,那你就会总是跟你不喜爱的人在一起。
