第一篇:We Need Dreams我們需要夢想
We all want to believe that we are capable of great feats, of reaching our fullest potential. We need dreams. They give us a vision of a better future. They nourish our spirit; they represent possibility even when we are dragged down by reality. They keep us going. Most successful people are dreamers as well as ordinary people who are not afraid to think big and dare to be great. Dreamers are not content with being merely mediocre, because no one ever dreams of going halfway.
我們都希望我們能成就偉大的事業(yè),充分發(fā)揮我們的潛能。我們需要夢想。夢想給我們一個更好未來的想象。夢想可以滋養(yǎng)我們的精神;當(dāng)我們被現(xiàn)實(shí)拖垮的時候,夢想為我們帶來希望。夢想讓我們繼續(xù)前進(jìn)。大多數(shù)成功人士都是夢想家,同時也是普通人,只是他們敢于夢想敢于成就偉大事業(yè)。夢想者不滿足于做平庸的普通人,因為從來沒有人想過要半途而廢。
When we were little kids, we didn't dream of a life of struggle and frustration. We dreamed of doing something big and splashy, something significant. We dreamed big.
當(dāng)我們還是孩子的時候,我們沒有想過我們的人生會充滿斗爭與挫折。我們都夢想過做一番大事業(yè),做有意義的事情。我們的夢想很大。
We know now that we have to put in the effort to reach our dreams, but the tough part is that most of us don't know where to start working. We might have every intention of becoming Vice President in five years or running across the finish line in a marathon or completing the novel we started years ago. But often we have no idea how to translate these dreams into actions.
我們知道我們必須努力實(shí)現(xiàn)我們的夢想,但是最困難的是,我們當(dāng)中的大多數(shù)人并不知道從哪里開始。我們可能會打算在五年后成為副總統(tǒng)或者跑完馬拉松全程或者完成我們多年以前開始寫的小說。但是我們常常不知道怎樣將這些夢想付諸行動。
In order to make real steps toward fulfilling our ultimate, big, splashy dreams, we have to start with concrete objectives. These are our goals.
為了使我們的偉大炫目的終極夢想成為現(xiàn)實(shí),我們必須從具體的事情做起。這就是我們的目標(biāo)。
