【关于激励Motivation】
词组：light up, push oneself, be destructive to s/th, tap the potential, miss out;
没有自我激励的人生就像一个只死鱼一样，那种人生不值得活;人应该不停的点燃内心的火苗把自己推向成功。没有自我激励的话，就是郁郁寡欢、无所事事;更糟糕的是没有办法开发自己的潜力，并措施成功的机会。
Without motivation we're like a dead fish in the water, that kind of life is not worth living. we should constantly light up our internal fire and push ourselves harder to achieve our goals. While the lack of motivation is destructive to oneself, and one will feel depressed, and have a pretty low esteem. To make matter worse, one is not be able to tap the full potential within oneself, thus he or she would miss out the chance to be successful.
【关于珍惜“今天”】
你不能改变过去,但你可以改变未来。我们应该明白,事情不总是他们期望的方式。当他们犯错误时,他们关注的解决方案,而不是遗憾。俗话说,昨天是历史,明天是神秘的,但是今天是一个礼物,这就是为什么我们称之为礼物。
You can't change the past but you can change the future. We should understand that things don t always work out the way we expect. When we make mistakes, we ought to focus on solutions, not on regrets. As the saying goes, yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery, but today is a gift, that's why we call it present.
【关于艺术家的“成功”】
并不是天分造就伟大的艺术家,是努力,坚持,毅力,决心和毅力。并不是每一个伟大的艺术家可以在五岁的时候能做出很好的画作。
It isn't talent that makes great artists, it's hard work, persistence, will power, determination, and fortitude. Not every great artist can draw nice pictures by the age of five.
成功的艺术家不是以天分支撑的,那只是不付出努力的借口。还有其他更重要的因素如能否够寻找社会关系;与同行和导师而不是天赋更重要。
Successful artists aren't underpinned by talent, it is an excuse not to put in the effort that is needed to be a successful artist. There are other more important factors like, to be able to seek out social connections, and build on them. Connecting with peers and mentors is more important than being talented.
【必须上大学才能成功吗】
Advanced education provides you with the tools you need to be successful in your future career. Not only can you acquire specific knowledge in a particular filed, like economics, physics, and biology, and stuff, you can also get practical experience in relevant areas, like psychological counseling, physical therapy, and even nursing.
高等教育为您提你未来职业生涯成功需要的工具。不仅可以获得特定的知识在一个特定的领域,如经济学、物理学、生物学等等,你也可以在相关领域获得实际经验,如心理咨询,物理治疗,甚至护理。
【生意人要不要随和?】
能够建立社会和职业关系网,并扩大他们的能力是企业家成功的关键因素,为了实现这个目标,我们需要随和,这样使破冰更容易。
The ability to build up social and professional connections and expand them is the key factor to be a successful business person, and in order to achieve that, one needs to be easygoing, cuz that makes ice breaking much more easier.
