everyone to leave and then I wait like just to be safe I wait another 5 minutes and then at one point it does occur to
等所有人离开,然后我等待,只是为了安全起见,我又等了5分钟,然后有一次,我意识到

我,我想,我是一个27岁的副总裁,我在男洗手间的隔间里,躲着我自己的公司,但不管怎样,我还是冲了出去,我没有看到

任何人,我走上后楼梯,去我的房间,脱掉我的西装,脱掉我的领带,我穿上我的跑步服,因为

我要去跑步,我穿上我的跑鞋,我的跑步短裤,我在头上系了一条红色头巾,这是
I always work out with a red bandanna and and uh and then I go down the back staircase and I go around and get on the
我总是戴着红色头巾锻炼,嗯,然后我走下后楼梯,我绕了一圈,上了
uh the um Silverado Trail I I couldn't find my shirt I'm not sure if I pack one it's 75 degrees it doesn't matter so I
嗯,Silverado Trail,我,我找不到我的衬衫,我不确定我是否打包了一件,75度,没关系,所以我
start I start on this run and it is just glorious like my my playlist is amazing and I'm having I'm having just this great time and on this run I start to have
开始,我开始这次跑步,真是太棒了,我的播放列表很棒,我玩得很开心,在这次跑步中,我开始有
this runner's high which some of you may have experienced and there's this voice and this voice says you know Graham you don't have to this isn't you you know
这种跑步者的高潮,你们中的一些人可能经历过,有一个声音,这个声音说,你知道,Graham,你不必这样,这不是你,你知道
you you don't have to do this like this isn't what you're meant to do and it was this voice that I'd heard maybe other times but this time it was like really
你,你不必这样做,这不是你应该做的,这是我可能在其他时候听到的声音,但这次它真的
powerful and I realized that this voice was speaking to me and it was it was my truth and and this wave of calm and peace just kind of came over me as I
强大,我意识到这个声音在对我说话,它是我的真理,一股平静和和平的浪潮,当我
finished this run realizing that that I was going to listen to that voice there were two memorable things about that run that that have stayed
完成这次跑步时,意识到我要听从那个声音,那次跑步有两件令人难忘的事情,一直
with me to this day the first one is the end of the run so I go out I'm going on you know just having a great run I turn
陪伴我到今天,第一件事是跑步的结束,所以我出去,你知道,只是跑得很开心,我转身
around again having Runners high and at the very end of the run one of my favorite songs comes on my playlist which is I the tiger by uh Survivor and
再次,有跑步者的高潮,在跑步的最后,我最喜欢的歌曲之一出现在我的播放列表中,这是I the tiger,嗯,Survivor,
it's the theme song of Rocky 3 if you haven't seen that like the gratuitous training scene where he gets beat then he has to come back and train that that
这是Rocky 3的主题曲,如果你没看过,就像那个过度的训练场景,他被打败了,然后他必须回来训练,
they're playing that song and it's like so then I'm like okay I'm I'm feeling it I'm running and then there's this long glass building that is on this Trail and
他们在播放那首歌,然后我想,好吧,我感受到了,我在跑步,然后这条小径上有一座长玻璃建筑,
I'm like running and I catch a glimpse of myself in the thing the sun's hitting me just right I got my bandana you know sweats pouring down I'm shirtless I'm
我在跑步,我在里面瞥见了自己,阳光正好照在我身上,我戴着我的头巾,你知道,汗水流下来,我光着上身,我
like I'm I look like Rocky right now I start I I just looking in the mirror I start doing some of these and then I start doing some of
我想,我现在看起来像Rocky,我开始,我只是看着镜子,我开始做一些这些动作,然后我开始做一些
these a little bit of that start doing a little bit of this and then I'm like yeah yeah feeling this and then I I I
这些动作,一点点那个,开始做一点点这个,然后我想,是的,是的,感受到了,然后我,我,我
see something kind of moving in the window take off my sungl take my sunglasses down I look and all the energy drains out of my body because I
看到窗户里有什么东西在动,我摘下我的太阳镜,我往下看,我所有的能量都从我的身体里流走了,因为我
realize what's happened I've been on this run for two hours the meeting I was in ended they broke for lunch they go to lunch in a different room and it's a
意识到发生了什么,我已经跑了两个小时,我参加的会议结束了,他们休息吃午饭,他们去另一个房间吃午饭,这是一个
restaurant with a window overlooking the vineyard so me sneaking sneaking stealthily back into the meeting actually became me shadow back in shirtless in front of my entire
餐厅,有一个窗户可以俯瞰葡萄园,所以我偷偷地、悄悄地回到会议,实际上变成了我光着上身,在我整个
company so that was the first reason that run was memorable that happened the second reason it was memorable was that I realized that I had
公司面前,所以那是那次跑步令人难忘的第一个原因,发生的第二件事是,我意识到我已经
heard this voice which was my inner truth and I made a promise to myself that day that I was going to continue to listen to that voice and I was going to
听到了这个声音,这是我的内心真理,那天我向自己承诺,我要继续听从那个声音,我要
continue to follow it starting with allowing myself to leave that job so I've been teaching here now for 22 years I've met with so many students
继续跟随它,从允许自己离开那份工作开始,所以我现在已经在这里教了22年,我见过这么多学生
over that time and what I realize is that you all have this and all of us have this conflict going on at all times inside of us and it's between two forces
在那段时间里,我意识到你们所有人都有这个,我们所有人都有这个冲突一直在我们内心进行,它是在两种力量之间
and the first force is your survival Instinct that's been with us for thousands if not tens of thousands of years and this is a thing that you know
第一种力量是你的生存本能,它已经陪伴我们数千年,如果不是数万年,这是一件你知道
that that noise in the bushes that was could could possibly kill you it wants to inject into you fear and doubt and worry and anxiety and once you would
灌木丛中的那个声音,可能,可能杀死你,它想向你注入恐惧、怀疑、担忧和焦虑,一旦你
fight or flight and and that's your that's kind of your voice of fear and your inner critic and that's really loud that voice is in your mind all the time and then
战斗或逃跑,那是你的,那是你的恐惧之声和你的内心批评者,那真的很响亮,那个声音一直在你的脑海里,然后
there's another voice the second voice and that voice has been written about and talked about by philosophers for thousands of years and that voice has
有另一个声音,第二个声音,那个声音已经被哲学家们写了几千年,谈论了几千年,那个声音
been called many names it's been called your intuition it's been called Source God the universe your soul your true self you know your inner wisdom lots of
被叫过很多名字,它被称为你的直觉,它被称为源头、上帝、宇宙、你的灵魂、你的真实自我,你知道,你的内在智慧,很多
voice names for that that voice is a little quieter and that voice isn't in your head a lot of times it shows up in your body it shows up in
声音的名字,那个声音有点安静,那个声音不在你的脑海里,很多时候它出现在你的身体里,它出现在
your heart your gut your you know your chest you feel that and unfortunately that first voice really drowns us out a lot of times and the thing is that the
你的心,你的直觉,你知道,你的胸口,你感觉到它,不幸的是,第一个声音真的经常淹没我们,问题是
voice of fear will lead you to A Life That's too small and you know this you already know this and the reason you the way that you
恐惧的声音会引导你走向一个太小的生活,你知道这个,你已经知道这个,你,你
know this is you feel this you know you feel this conflict this dissident and tension when you're in that position when you're doing something that's too
知道这个的方式是你感觉到这个,你知道你感觉到这个冲突,这种不和谐和紧张,当你在那个位置时,当你做太
small if you want to reach full power in this one life of yours it's in the second voice it's in the voice that's the real
小的事情时,如果你想在你这一生中达到全部力量,那是在第二个声音里,那是在那个声音里,那是真正的
you this contains your dreams your path it contains your energy and when you stop denying who you really are you there's there's really no end to what you can
你,这包含你的梦想,你的道路,它包含你的能量,当你停止否认你真正是谁时,你真的没有尽头,你可以
accomplish so today what I want to do is I want to talk to you about about how to access this voice and I'm going to
完成,所以今天我想做的是,我想和你们谈谈如何接触这个声音,我要
invite you today to make three promises to yourselves as you get ready to graduate you good with that three promises so the first one is a promise
邀请你们今天向自己做出三个承诺,当你们准备毕业时,你们同意吗,三个承诺,所以第一个是一个承诺
that's going to help you get unstuck the second one is a promise that's going to help you find that voice and the third one is a promise that's
这将帮助你摆脱困境,第二个是一个承诺,这将帮助你找到那个声音,第三个是一个承诺,
going to help you follow it and then you can tap into this energy source not episodically or randomly on a run sometime you know but actually
这将帮助你跟随它,然后你可以利用这个能量源,不是偶尔或随机地在某次跑步时,你知道,而是实际上
intentionally and regularly and you can feel the full magnitude of what you're supposed to what you can do in this life so let's do it so the first promise is take the nail
有意地和定期地,你可以感受到你应该做的全部力量,你可以在这一生中做什么,所以让我们做吧,所以第一个承诺是把钉子
out of your head this is the unstuck promise so a number of years ago there was a video uh of a woman and she's talking to her boyfriend and she says I
从你的脑袋里拿出来,这是摆脱困境的承诺,所以几年前,有一个视频,嗯,一个女人,她在和她的男朋友说话,她说我
feel all this pressure I have headaches I can't sleep you know and she's just she seems like she's hopeless and her uh her boyfriend looks at her he looks a
感到所有这些压力,我头痛,我睡不着,你知道,她只是,她看起来好像很绝望,她的,嗯,她的男朋友看着她,他看起来
little confused and he says well you know you could take the nail out of your head and then you see she turns and you realize she stick has a nail sticking
有点困惑,他说,嗯,你知道,你可以把钉子从你的脑袋里拿出来,然后你看到她转过身,你意识到她头上有一根钉子
out of her head and it seems pretty obvious and then she and then she says it's not about the nail and she wants to talk about anything and everything
从她的脑袋里伸出来,这似乎很明显,然后她,然后她说,这不是关于钉子,她想谈论任何事情和一切
except the thing that's actually going to make her unstuck unfortunately this is also true with a lot of us we are walking around most of the time with a nail in our head
除了真正能让她摆脱困境的事情,不幸的是,这对我们很多人来说也是真的,我们大多数时候都在脑袋里带着一根钉子走来走去
some times our nail is just as obvious as it is in this video we know what it is we're just not dealing with it sometimes it's a little less
有时我们的钉子就像这个视频中一样明显,我们知道它是什么,我们只是不处理它,有时它有点不那么
obvious but our nail is the thing that's keeping us stuck and until we remove it we're not going to reach our full power so Nails can kind of fall into
明显,但我们的钉子是让我们陷入困境的东西,直到我们移除它,我们不会达到我们的全部力量,所以钉子可以大致分为
four buckets um the first one is bad habits that we have that are keeping us from reaching our full potential the second one is unresolved past
四个类别,嗯,第一个是我们拥有的坏习惯,这些习惯阻止我们达到我们的全部潜力,第二个是未解决的过去
experiences that we might have had a long time ago that we just have compartmentalized and we haven't dealt with them the third one is rules or
经历,我们可能在很久以前就有过,我们只是把它们分门别类,我们没有处理它们,第三个是规则或
assumptions this is the way your life needs to go you have to do this first your parents want you to do that you know all these constraints we put on
假设,这就是你的生活需要走的路,你必须先做这个,你的父母想让你做那个,你知道,所有这些我们给自己施加的约束
ourselves with our own rules and the and the fourth one is fear and it's fear that's keeping you stuck so in in my case it was a job that I didn't like but
用我们自己的规则,第四个是恐惧,是恐惧让你陷入困境,所以,嗯,在我的情况下,那是一份我不喜欢的工作,但
I was afraid to leave so I stayed in the job you could be in a relationship that you shouldn't be in and you're afraid to
我害怕离开,所以我留在了那份工作里,你可能在一段你不应该处于的关系中,你害怕
leave so you stay in the relationship or it could be really any decision that you want to make but you're afraid and so you just you you were you stay paralyzed
离开,所以你留在了那段关系里,或者它可能是你真的想做的任何决定,但你害怕,所以你只是,你,你,你保持瘫痪
and these nails just like you're thinking in that video why doesn't a girl just pull the thing out right why why is this complicated there's two
这些钉子,就像你在那个视频中想的那样,为什么女孩不直接把东西拉出来,为什么,为什么这很复杂,有两个
reasons that it's hard to pull these nails out of our head the first one is we haven't admitted that we have one and so the first way to pull your nail out
原因,很难把这些钉子从我们的脑袋里拉出来,第一个是我们还没有承认我们有一个,所以把钉子从你的脑袋里拉出来的第一种方法是
of your head was is is to speak your truth so let me let me just give you an example of this of this nail so I have a I have a close friend of
是说出你的真相,所以让我,让我给你一个这个钉子的例子,所以我有一个,我有一个亲密的朋友,
mine and she has insomnia and she it controls her life she has a she you know she can only sleep a few hours a night
她有失眠症,它控制着她的生活,她有一个,你知道,她每晚只能睡几个小时
she's tired all day it's it's absolutely controls her life so she goes to the doctor and she's you know doctor has her fill out all this stuff what are you
她整天都很累,这绝对控制着她的生活,所以她去看医生,她,你知道,医生让她填写所有这些东西,你在
eating what are you drinking what time you're going to bed all these different things and uh and then and she the doctor says to her hey I have good news
吃什么,你在喝什么,你什么时候上床睡觉,所有这些不同的事情,嗯,然后,她,医生对她说,嘿,我有好消息
for you or I know how you can cure your insomnia she says great I'm super excited to hear that he and um the doctor says to her you could stop
给你,或者我知道如何治愈你的失眠,她说,太好了,我超级兴奋听到这个,他,嗯,医生对她说,你可以停止
drinking four to five glasses of wine with with an hour of you going to bed that that that'll help your insomnia and she says that's a horrible idea she goes
在你上床睡觉前一小时喝四到五杯酒,那,那,那会帮助你的失眠,她说,那是个糟糕的主意,她去了
and sees four more doctors and then she ends up with a plethora of you know medicine she keeps in her cabinet and then what she does is she proceeds to
又看了四个医生,然后她最终得到了大量的,你知道,她放在柜子里的药物,然后她做的是,她继续
build a helmet around her nail so she she basically has all these drugs she takes she goes to bed at a certain time she can't be out late she during the day
在她的钉子周围建造一个头盔,所以她基本上有所有这些她服用的药物,她在某个时间上床睡觉,她不能晚出,白天
she needs nap she's tired all the time so her energy goes into protecting this nail that's in her head rather than pulling it out the reason we don't pull
她需要小睡,她总是很累,所以她的能量投入到保护她脑袋里的这个钉子,而不是把它拉出来,我们不拉
it out as I said first is we haven't admitted to ourselves that we have the problem so we haven't said out loud you know I have a problem with alcohol or
它出来,正如我首先说的,是我们还没有向自己承认我们有这个问题,所以我们还没有大声说出来,你知道,我有酒精问题,或
I'm in a relationship that I shouldn't be in or a job that's not giving me energy so to remove the nail the first thing is to start by speaking your truth
我处于一段我不应该处于的关系中,或者一份不给我能量的工作,所以为了移除钉子,第一件事是从说出你的真相开始
and this is half of the battle right here the other the second reason that we don't pull the nail out is life is going to get worse
这就是战斗的一半,另一个,我们不把钉子拉出来的第二个原因是,生活首先会变得更糟
first so when we trade so if you think of this as the pattern of your life where at any given time you're going to reach a plateau and the path to get to
所以当我们交易时,所以如果你把这看作是你生活的模式,在任何给定的时间,你都会达到一个平台期,到达
the next Plateau involves something that's going to get worse first and these nails go on and and the way to pull them out is going to almost always
下一个平台期的路径涉及一些首先会变得更糟的事情,这些钉子继续存在,把它们拉出来的方法几乎总是
involve something that's going to be uncomfortable at first because change Always is so if you leave a job if you you know end a relationship if you try
涉及一些首先会不舒服的事情,因为改变总是这样,所以如果你离开一份工作,如果你,你知道,结束一段关系,如果你尝试
to address one of your really bad habits things are going to get worse first but the path to reaching the next height is really to you have you're going to have
解决你的一个真正坏的习惯,事情首先会变得更糟,但到达下一个高度的路径真的是,你必须,你要
to you're G to have to deal with that that downward uh path first and then you're going to reach another plateau and you'll have another one and and this
必须,你要,你要处理那个,那个向下的,嗯,路径首先,然后你要到达另一个平台期,你会有另一个,这
is a big part of your life so just to realize that everything that you want is on the other side of worse first everything that you want is often
是你生活的一大部分,所以只是意识到你想要的一切都在首先变得更糟的另一边,你想要的一切往往
on the other side of the thing that you fear right now think about the thing that you fear and that's the thing you should be going at that's where your
在你现在害怕的事情的另一边,想想你害怕的事情,那就是你应该去的地方,那就是你的
work is right now so if principle one if you want to live your life at full power the promise I would ask you tonight or today to make
工作现在就在那里,所以如果原则一,如果你想以全部力量生活,我今晚或今天要你做出的承诺
to yourselves is to take the nail out of your head and do that work okay that's the not fun one that's the getting unstuck so next is to try to find your
向自己承诺,是把钉子从你的脑袋里拿出来,做那项工作,好的,那不是有趣的,那是摆脱困境,接下来是尝试找到你的
energy so we're tapping in that inner voice first we got to get unstuck now we got to listen to that voice so promise two is follow your
能量,所以我们要接触那个内在的声音,首先我们必须摆脱困境,现在我们必须听从那个声音,所以承诺二是跟随你的
energy and I say not your passion here here's why I say not your passion because when I was at the GSB and probably every speaker who stood up here had a moment
能量,我说不是你的激情,这里是我为什么说不是你的激情,因为当我在GSB时,可能每个站在这里的演讲者都有一个时刻
in their speech where they said some version of Follow Your Passion right has anyone heard that before and every graduation speech you watch you have
在他们的演讲中,他们说了一些版本的"跟随你的激情",对吧,有人以前听过这个吗,你观看的每个毕业演讲都有
that like injected in there so let me tell you why that happens first of all because now I'm up here giving advice and I'll explain to
那个,就像被注入那里,所以让我告诉你为什么这会发生,首先,因为现在我在上面给建议,我会解释
you why why why is that what every speaker wants to tell you the reason is that I'll speak for myself myself I have spent a large
你,为什么,为什么,为什么每个演讲者都想告诉你这个,原因是我会为自己说话,我花了很大
portion of my life doing something for which I had very little energy and it was tough and it felt like a grind and it and it was and it just absorbed a lot
一部分我的生活做了一些我几乎没有能量的事情,这很艰难,感觉像是一种磨砺,它,它只是吸收了很多
of of of energy I could fight through it with willpower for a little bit of time and I've spent en a lot of my time in an
能量,我可以用意志力坚持一段时间,我花了很多时间在一个
area that gave me a tremendous amount of energy and and there is no comparison and so the speakers are trying to say hey come up over on this side you know
给我巨大能量的领域,没有可比性,所以演讲者试图说,嘿,到这边来,你知道
go into the thing that gives you energy by the way the reason that they're on the stage in the first place is that they made that decision so that's why
进入给你能量的东西,顺便说一下,他们首先站在舞台上的原因是他们做出了那个决定,所以这就是为什么
they're sharing this this advice with you but it's very it can be very harmful advice to go follow your passion and here's why because it implies that you
他们与你分享这个建议,但它可能,它可能是非常有害的建议,去跟随你的激情,这里是我为什么这么说,因为它暗示你
have only one passion it implies that you're supposed to know what it is when you're 28 that you're supposed to go do it for the next 40 years and you're
只有一个激情,它暗示你应该知道它是什么,当你28岁时,你应该在接下来的40年里去做它,你
supposed to know how to follow it and I don't think any of those things are true at my firm Alpine we've invested in over 500 entrepreneurs who've built
应该知道如何跟随它,我不认为这些事情中的任何一个是真的,在我的公司Alpine,我们投资了500多名企业家,他们建立了
successful companies and not one of them followed that path even the people who will give up stand up and tell you that advice didn't follow that path so
成功的公司,他们中没有一个人遵循那条道路,甚至那些会站起来告诉你那个建议的人也没有遵循那条道路,所以
instead what I'm going to offer is for you to not follow necessarily this nebulous passion of which there's one and it's intimidating but instead to
相反,我要提供的是,你不必遵循这个模糊的激情,其中有一个,它是令人生畏的,而是
follow your just your energy whatever is giving you energy at the current time so there's this exercise that I want to do with you today which is called Nine
跟随你的,只是你的能量,无论什么在当下给你能量,所以有一个练习,我今天想和你们一起做,这叫做九
Lives and the way it works is imagine that you had nine parallel universes that you could you could partake in the first life is going to be the thing that
种生活,它的工作方式是,想象你有九个平行宇宙,你可以,你可以参与,第一种生活将是你现在正在做的事情
you're doing right now so for me that was I'm in the corporate job you know I'm going to live in the Bay Area I'm going to pay off some debt that's kind
所以对我来说,那是我在企业工作,你知道,我要住在湾区,我要还一些债务,那是
of Life number one and then lives two through n lives two through nine you have two rules the first rule is uh that you they all have to start from today so
生活一号,然后生活二到n,生活二到九,你有两个规则,第一个规则是,嗯,它们都必须从今天开始,所以
you can't go back in time all your all your remaining eight lives start with where you are right now the second rule is you want to find the things that are
你不能回到过去,你所有剩余的八种生活都从你现在的位置开始,第二个规则是,你想找到那些
you're super excited about so every one of those other lives should be something that you're so excited that you you jump out of bed to do so for me it might have
你超级兴奋的事情,所以其他每一种生活都应该是你如此兴奋,你跳下床去做的事情,所以对我来说,可能是
been okay my I I shared Life One Life two would be hey I want to start my own company someday and you know be a

I'd love be a DJ in Vegas you know life six I'd be a writer social media uh influencer you know whatever you come up with these these these things that are
我想在拉斯维加斯当DJ,你知道,生活六,我会成为一名作家,社交媒体,嗯,影响者,你知道,无论你想出什么,这些,这些,这些让你
exciting for you and then what you've done when you do this is you found things that you have energy for energy is the language of your
兴奋的事情,然后当你这样做时,你做了什么,你找到了你有能量的事情,能量是你
soul that second voice that I access that day on the run the way that it talks to you is through your energy it doesn't use words it uses your whole
灵魂的语言,第二个声音,我在那次跑步中接触到的,它与你交谈的方式是通过你的能量,它不使用单词,它使用你的整个
body and shows you things for which you have energy and that's how it's talking to you so when you're excited about something when you're excited about
身体,向你展示你有能量的事情,这就是它与你交谈的方式,所以当你对某事感到兴奋时,当你对
someone when something is firing you up it's your soul talking to you that's it's it's voice so you've just created with these Nine Lives nine things that
某人感到兴奋时,当某事让你兴奋时,那是你的灵魂在对你说话,那是它的声音,所以你刚刚用这九种生活创造了九件
you're super excited about so that's how you're going to listen to your your your soul there's two things you can do with this exercise the first is as you're on
你超级兴奋的事情,所以这就是你如何听从你的,你的,你的灵魂,你可以用这个练习做两件事,第一件是当你
path one and you're and you're cranking away on path one pull something in from one of those other lives that you that gives you a tremendous amount of energy
在路径一上,你,你在路径一上努力工作,从其他生活中拉一些东西,那些给你巨大能量的东西
so you could pull in playing the guitar or playing a sport or writing a book or writing a blog or teaching a class at Stanford or all these things and what
所以你可以拉入弹吉他,或做运动,或写书,或写博客,或在斯坦福教课,或所有这些事情,什么
happens when you pull something in like that is your energy will become infectious you'll light a spark you'll light a match and that'll that'll actually inflame the rest of your life
当你拉入这样的东西时会发生什么,是你的能量会变得具有感染力,你会点燃火花,你会点燃火柴,那会,那会实际上点燃你生活的其余部分
with excitement so that's one way that's the first way that you can use that exercise the second way which I think is even more powerful is ask yourself this
兴奋,所以这是一种方式,这是你可以使用那个练习的第一种方式,第二种方式,我认为更强大,是问自己这个
question of all nine of those lives what would I do if I knew I wouldn't fail which one of those would I choose that is by definition silencing that
问题,关于所有九种生活,如果我知道我不会失败,我会做什么,我会选择哪一个,这从定义上就是让那个
voice of fear and really getting in touch with that thing that is your most dear dream in class of 2024 I would argue at some point in your life that's the path

I toughed it out and about a year into that job we had this offsite in Napa and uh we're sitting in these conference rooms for three days
我坚持了下来,大约工作一年后,我们在Napa有一个场外会议,嗯,我们在这些会议室里坐了三天
listening to these uh presentations and this is like PowerPoint old school where there's 87 words on the slide and the and the person who's speaking reads
听这些,嗯,演示,这就像老式的PowerPoint,幻灯片上有87个单词,说话的人
every single word to you in 0.5x speed and I'm just you know it it's brutal so about a day and a half into this offsite
以0.5倍的速度把每个字都读给你听,我只是,你知道,这太残酷了,所以大约一天半后,在这个场外会议中
I I hatched my escape plan so I'm sitting in the in the room and I I put my suit Cod on I tuck my notebook under
我,我制定了我的逃跑计划,所以我坐在房间里,我穿上我的西装外套,我把我的笔记本塞在
the suit Cod just to make sure there's no trace and then as we take a break at 10:45 in the morning and I file out and
西装外套下面,只是为了确保没有痕迹,然后当我们在早上10:45休息时,我排队出去,
I I be make sure I'm the last one to go in the bathroom and I hide out in the stall and so I wait like 3 minutes for
我,我确保我是最后一个去洗手间的人,我躲在隔间里,所以我等了大约3分钟,
everyone to leave and then I wait like just to be safe I wait another 5 minutes and then at one point it does occur to
等所有人离开,然后我等待,只是为了安全起见,我又等了5分钟,然后有一次,我意识到
me I'm like I'm a 27-year-old vice president I'm in the men's room in the stall hiding from my own company but all right nonetheless I bust out I don't see
我,我想,我是一个27岁的副总裁,我在男洗手间的隔间里,躲着我自己的公司,但不管怎样,我还是冲了出去,我没有看到
anyone I go up the back staircase go to my room take my suit off take off my tie and I put on my running clothes because
任何人,我走上后楼梯,去我的房间,脱掉我的西装,脱掉我的领带,我穿上我的跑步服,因为
I'm going to go for a run and I put on my running shoes my running shorts I tie this red bandan around my head which is
我要去跑步,我穿上我的跑鞋,我的跑步短裤,我在头上系了一条红色头巾,这是
I always work out with a red bandanna and and uh and then I go down the back staircase and I go around and get on the
我总是戴着红色头巾锻炼,嗯,然后我走下后楼梯,我绕了一圈,上了
uh the um Silverado Trail I I couldn't find my shirt I'm not sure if I pack one it's 75 degrees it doesn't matter so I
嗯,Silverado Trail,我,我找不到我的衬衫,我不确定我是否打包了一件,75度,没关系,所以我
start I start on this run and it is just glorious like my my playlist is amazing and I'm having I'm having just this great time and on this run I start to have
开始,我开始这次跑步,真是太棒了,我的播放列表很棒,我玩得很开心,在这次跑步中,我开始有
this runner's high which some of you may have experienced and there's this voice and this voice says you know Graham you don't have to this isn't you you know
这种跑步者的高潮,你们中的一些人可能经历过,有一个声音,这个声音说,你知道,Graham,你不必这样,这不是你,你知道
you you don't have to do this like this isn't what you're meant to do and it was this voice that I'd heard maybe other times but this time it was like really
你,你不必这样做,这不是你应该做的,这是我可能在其他时候听到的声音,但这次它真的
powerful and I realized that this voice was speaking to me and it was it was my truth and and this wave of calm and peace just kind of came over me as I
强大,我意识到这个声音在对我说话,它是我的真理,一股平静和和平的浪潮,当我
finished this run realizing that that I was going to listen to that voice there were two memorable things about that run that that have stayed
完成这次跑步时,意识到我要听从那个声音,那次跑步有两件令人难忘的事情,一直
with me to this day the first one is the end of the run so I go out I'm going on you know just having a great run I turn
陪伴我到今天,第一件事是跑步的结束,所以我出去,你知道,只是跑得很开心,我转身
around again having Runners high and at the very end of the run one of my favorite songs comes on my playlist which is I the tiger by uh Survivor and
再次,有跑步者的高潮,在跑步的最后,我最喜欢的歌曲之一出现在我的播放列表中,这是I the tiger,嗯,Survivor,
it's the theme song of Rocky 3 if you haven't seen that like the gratuitous training scene where he gets beat then he has to come back and train that that
这是Rocky 3的主题曲,如果你没看过,就像那个过度的训练场景,他被打败了,然后他必须回来训练,
they're playing that song and it's like so then I'm like okay I'm I'm feeling it I'm running and then there's this long glass building that is on this Trail and
他们在播放那首歌,然后我想,好吧,我感受到了,我在跑步,然后这条小径上有一座长玻璃建筑,
I'm like running and I catch a glimpse of myself in the thing the sun's hitting me just right I got my bandana you know sweats pouring down I'm shirtless I'm
我在跑步,我在里面瞥见了自己,阳光正好照在我身上,我戴着我的头巾,你知道,汗水流下来,我光着上身,我
like I'm I look like Rocky right now I start I I just looking in the mirror I start doing some of these and then I start doing some of
我想,我现在看起来像Rocky,我开始,我只是看着镜子,我开始做一些这些动作,然后我开始做一些
these a little bit of that start doing a little bit of this and then I'm like yeah yeah feeling this and then I I I
这些动作,一点点那个,开始做一点点这个,然后我想,是的,是的,感受到了,然后我,我,我
see something kind of moving in the window take off my sungl take my sunglasses down I look and all the energy drains out of my body because I
看到窗户里有什么东西在动,我摘下我的太阳镜,我往下看,我所有的能量都从我的身体里流走了,因为我
realize what's happened I've been on this run for two hours the meeting I was in ended they broke for lunch they go to lunch in a different room and it's a
意识到发生了什么,我已经跑了两个小时,我参加的会议结束了,他们休息吃午饭,他们去另一个房间吃午饭,这是一个
restaurant with a window overlooking the vineyard so me sneaking sneaking stealthily back into the meeting actually became me shadow back in shirtless in front of my entire
餐厅,有一个窗户可以俯瞰葡萄园,所以我偷偷地、悄悄地回到会议,实际上变成了我光着上身,在我整个
company so that was the first reason that run was memorable that happened the second reason it was memorable was that I realized that I had
公司面前,所以那是那次跑步令人难忘的第一个原因,发生的第二件事是,我意识到我已经
heard this voice which was my inner truth and I made a promise to myself that day that I was going to continue to listen to that voice and I was going to
听到了这个声音,这是我的内心真理,那天我向自己承诺,我要继续听从那个声音,我要
continue to follow it starting with allowing myself to leave that job so I've been teaching here now for 22 years I've met with so many students
继续跟随它,从允许自己离开那份工作开始,所以我现在已经在这里教了22年,我见过这么多学生
over that time and what I realize is that you all have this and all of us have this conflict going on at all times inside of us and it's between two forces
在那段时间里,我意识到你们所有人都有这个,我们所有人都有这个冲突一直在我们内心进行,它是在两种力量之间
and the first force is your survival Instinct that's been with us for thousands if not tens of thousands of years and this is a thing that you know
第一种力量是你的生存本能,它已经陪伴我们数千年,如果不是数万年,这是一件你知道
that that noise in the bushes that was could could possibly kill you it wants to inject into you fear and doubt and worry and anxiety and once you would
灌木丛中的那个声音,可能,可能杀死你,它想向你注入恐惧、怀疑、担忧和焦虑,一旦你
fight or flight and and that's your that's kind of your voice of fear and your inner critic and that's really loud that voice is in your mind all the time and then
战斗或逃跑,那是你的,那是你的恐惧之声和你的内心批评者,那真的很响亮,那个声音一直在你的脑海里,然后
there's another voice the second voice and that voice has been written about and talked about by philosophers for thousands of years and that voice has
有另一个声音,第二个声音,那个声音已经被哲学家们写了几千年,谈论了几千年,那个声音
been called many names it's been called your intuition it's been called Source God the universe your soul your true self you know your inner wisdom lots of
被叫过很多名字,它被称为你的直觉,它被称为源头、上帝、宇宙、你的灵魂、你的真实自我,你知道,你的内在智慧,很多
voice names for that that voice is a little quieter and that voice isn't in your head a lot of times it shows up in your body it shows up in
声音的名字,那个声音有点安静,那个声音不在你的脑海里,很多时候它出现在你的身体里,它出现在
your heart your gut your you know your chest you feel that and unfortunately that first voice really drowns us out a lot of times and the thing is that the
你的心,你的直觉,你知道,你的胸口,你感觉到它,不幸的是,第一个声音真的经常淹没我们,问题是
voice of fear will lead you to A Life That's too small and you know this you already know this and the reason you the way that you
恐惧的声音会引导你走向一个太小的生活,你知道这个,你已经知道这个,你,你
know this is you feel this you know you feel this conflict this dissident and tension when you're in that position when you're doing something that's too
知道这个的方式是你感觉到这个,你知道你感觉到这个冲突,这种不和谐和紧张,当你在那个位置时,当你做太
small if you want to reach full power in this one life of yours it's in the second voice it's in the voice that's the real
小的事情时,如果你想在你这一生中达到全部力量,那是在第二个声音里,那是在那个声音里,那是真正的
you this contains your dreams your path it contains your energy and when you stop denying who you really are you there's there's really no end to what you can
你,这包含你的梦想,你的道路,它包含你的能量,当你停止否认你真正是谁时,你真的没有尽头,你可以
accomplish so today what I want to do is I want to talk to you about about how to access this voice and I'm going to
完成,所以今天我想做的是,我想和你们谈谈如何接触这个声音,我要
invite you today to make three promises to yourselves as you get ready to graduate you good with that three promises so the first one is a promise
邀请你们今天向自己做出三个承诺,当你们准备毕业时,你们同意吗,三个承诺,所以第一个是一个承诺
that's going to help you get unstuck the second one is a promise that's going to help you find that voice and the third one is a promise that's
这将帮助你摆脱困境,第二个是一个承诺,这将帮助你找到那个声音,第三个是一个承诺,
going to help you follow it and then you can tap into this energy source not episodically or randomly on a run sometime you know but actually
这将帮助你跟随它,然后你可以利用这个能量源,不是偶尔或随机地在某次跑步时,你知道,而是实际上
intentionally and regularly and you can feel the full magnitude of what you're supposed to what you can do in this life so let's do it so the first promise is take the nail
有意地和定期地,你可以感受到你应该做的全部力量,你可以在这一生中做什么,所以让我们做吧,所以第一个承诺是把钉子
out of your head this is the unstuck promise so a number of years ago there was a video uh of a woman and she's talking to her boyfriend and she says I
从你的脑袋里拿出来,这是摆脱困境的承诺,所以几年前,有一个视频,嗯,一个女人,她在和她的男朋友说话,她说我
feel all this pressure I have headaches I can't sleep you know and she's just she seems like she's hopeless and her uh her boyfriend looks at her he looks a
感到所有这些压力,我头痛,我睡不着,你知道,她只是,她看起来好像很绝望,她的,嗯,她的男朋友看着她,他看起来
little confused and he says well you know you could take the nail out of your head and then you see she turns and you realize she stick has a nail sticking
有点困惑,他说,嗯,你知道,你可以把钉子从你的脑袋里拿出来,然后你看到她转过身,你意识到她头上有一根钉子
out of her head and it seems pretty obvious and then she and then she says it's not about the nail and she wants to talk about anything and everything
从她的脑袋里伸出来,这似乎很明显,然后她,然后她说,这不是关于钉子,她想谈论任何事情和一切
except the thing that's actually going to make her unstuck unfortunately this is also true with a lot of us we are walking around most of the time with a nail in our head
除了真正能让她摆脱困境的事情,不幸的是,这对我们很多人来说也是真的,我们大多数时候都在脑袋里带着一根钉子走来走去
some times our nail is just as obvious as it is in this video we know what it is we're just not dealing with it sometimes it's a little less
有时我们的钉子就像这个视频中一样明显,我们知道它是什么,我们只是不处理它,有时它有点不那么
obvious but our nail is the thing that's keeping us stuck and until we remove it we're not going to reach our full power so Nails can kind of fall into
明显,但我们的钉子是让我们陷入困境的东西,直到我们移除它,我们不会达到我们的全部力量,所以钉子可以大致分为
four buckets um the first one is bad habits that we have that are keeping us from reaching our full potential the second one is unresolved past
四个类别,嗯,第一个是我们拥有的坏习惯,这些习惯阻止我们达到我们的全部潜力,第二个是未解决的过去
experiences that we might have had a long time ago that we just have compartmentalized and we haven't dealt with them the third one is rules or
经历,我们可能在很久以前就有过,我们只是把它们分门别类,我们没有处理它们,第三个是规则或
assumptions this is the way your life needs to go you have to do this first your parents want you to do that you know all these constraints we put on
假设,这就是你的生活需要走的路,你必须先做这个,你的父母想让你做那个,你知道,所有这些我们给自己施加的约束
ourselves with our own rules and the and the fourth one is fear and it's fear that's keeping you stuck so in in my case it was a job that I didn't like but
用我们自己的规则,第四个是恐惧,是恐惧让你陷入困境,所以,嗯,在我的情况下,那是一份我不喜欢的工作,但
I was afraid to leave so I stayed in the job you could be in a relationship that you shouldn't be in and you're afraid to
我害怕离开,所以我留在了那份工作里,你可能在一段你不应该处于的关系中,你害怕
leave so you stay in the relationship or it could be really any decision that you want to make but you're afraid and so you just you you were you stay paralyzed
离开,所以你留在了那段关系里,或者它可能是你真的想做的任何决定,但你害怕,所以你只是,你,你,你保持瘫痪
and these nails just like you're thinking in that video why doesn't a girl just pull the thing out right why why is this complicated there's two
这些钉子,就像你在那个视频中想的那样,为什么女孩不直接把东西拉出来,为什么,为什么这很复杂,有两个
reasons that it's hard to pull these nails out of our head the first one is we haven't admitted that we have one and so the first way to pull your nail out
原因,很难把这些钉子从我们的脑袋里拉出来,第一个是我们还没有承认我们有一个,所以把钉子从你的脑袋里拉出来的第一种方法是
of your head was is is to speak your truth so let me let me just give you an example of this of this nail so I have a I have a close friend of
是说出你的真相,所以让我,让我给你一个这个钉子的例子,所以我有一个,我有一个亲密的朋友,
mine and she has insomnia and she it controls her life she has a she you know she can only sleep a few hours a night
她有失眠症,它控制着她的生活,她有一个,你知道,她每晚只能睡几个小时
she's tired all day it's it's absolutely controls her life so she goes to the doctor and she's you know doctor has her fill out all this stuff what are you
她整天都很累,这绝对控制着她的生活,所以她去看医生,她,你知道,医生让她填写所有这些东西,你在
eating what are you drinking what time you're going to bed all these different things and uh and then and she the doctor says to her hey I have good news
吃什么,你在喝什么,你什么时候上床睡觉,所有这些不同的事情,嗯,然后,她,医生对她说,嘿,我有好消息
for you or I know how you can cure your insomnia she says great I'm super excited to hear that he and um the doctor says to her you could stop
给你,或者我知道如何治愈你的失眠,她说,太好了,我超级兴奋听到这个,他,嗯,医生对她说,你可以停止
drinking four to five glasses of wine with with an hour of you going to bed that that that'll help your insomnia and she says that's a horrible idea she goes
在你上床睡觉前一小时喝四到五杯酒,那,那,那会帮助你的失眠,她说,那是个糟糕的主意,她去了
and sees four more doctors and then she ends up with a plethora of you know medicine she keeps in her cabinet and then what she does is she proceeds to
又看了四个医生,然后她最终得到了大量的,你知道,她放在柜子里的药物,然后她做的是,她继续
build a helmet around her nail so she she basically has all these drugs she takes she goes to bed at a certain time she can't be out late she during the day
在她的钉子周围建造一个头盔,所以她基本上有所有这些她服用的药物,她在某个时间上床睡觉,她不能晚出,白天
she needs nap she's tired all the time so her energy goes into protecting this nail that's in her head rather than pulling it out the reason we don't pull
她需要小睡,她总是很累,所以她的能量投入到保护她脑袋里的这个钉子,而不是把它拉出来,我们不拉
it out as I said first is we haven't admitted to ourselves that we have the problem so we haven't said out loud you know I have a problem with alcohol or
它出来,正如我首先说的,是我们还没有向自己承认我们有这个问题,所以我们还没有大声说出来,你知道,我有酒精问题,或
I'm in a relationship that I shouldn't be in or a job that's not giving me energy so to remove the nail the first thing is to start by speaking your truth
我处于一段我不应该处于的关系中,或者一份不给我能量的工作,所以为了移除钉子,第一件事是从说出你的真相开始
and this is half of the battle right here the other the second reason that we don't pull the nail out is life is going to get worse
这就是战斗的一半,另一个,我们不把钉子拉出来的第二个原因是,生活首先会变得更糟
first so when we trade so if you think of this as the pattern of your life where at any given time you're going to reach a plateau and the path to get to
所以当我们交易时,所以如果你把这看作是你生活的模式,在任何给定的时间,你都会达到一个平台期,到达
the next Plateau involves something that's going to get worse first and these nails go on and and the way to pull them out is going to almost always
下一个平台期的路径涉及一些首先会变得更糟的事情,这些钉子继续存在,把它们拉出来的方法几乎总是
involve something that's going to be uncomfortable at first because change Always is so if you leave a job if you you know end a relationship if you try
涉及一些首先会不舒服的事情,因为改变总是这样,所以如果你离开一份工作,如果你,你知道,结束一段关系,如果你尝试
to address one of your really bad habits things are going to get worse first but the path to reaching the next height is really to you have you're going to have
解决你的一个真正坏的习惯,事情首先会变得更糟,但到达下一个高度的路径真的是,你必须,你要
to you're G to have to deal with that that downward uh path first and then you're going to reach another plateau and you'll have another one and and this
必须,你要,你要处理那个,那个向下的,嗯,路径首先,然后你要到达另一个平台期,你会有另一个,这
is a big part of your life so just to realize that everything that you want is on the other side of worse first everything that you want is often
是你生活的一大部分,所以只是意识到你想要的一切都在首先变得更糟的另一边,你想要的一切往往
on the other side of the thing that you fear right now think about the thing that you fear and that's the thing you should be going at that's where your
在你现在害怕的事情的另一边,想想你害怕的事情,那就是你应该去的地方,那就是你的
work is right now so if principle one if you want to live your life at full power the promise I would ask you tonight or today to make
工作现在就在那里,所以如果原则一,如果你想以全部力量生活,我今晚或今天要你做出的承诺
to yourselves is to take the nail out of your head and do that work okay that's the not fun one that's the getting unstuck so next is to try to find your
向自己承诺,是把钉子从你的脑袋里拿出来,做那项工作,好的,那不是有趣的,那是摆脱困境,接下来是尝试找到你的
energy so we're tapping in that inner voice first we got to get unstuck now we got to listen to that voice so promise two is follow your
能量,所以我们要接触那个内在的声音,首先我们必须摆脱困境,现在我们必须听从那个声音,所以承诺二是跟随你的
energy and I say not your passion here here's why I say not your passion because when I was at the GSB and probably every speaker who stood up here had a moment
能量,我说不是你的激情,这里是我为什么说不是你的激情,因为当我在GSB时,可能每个站在这里的演讲者都有一个时刻
in their speech where they said some version of Follow Your Passion right has anyone heard that before and every graduation speech you watch you have
在他们的演讲中,他们说了一些版本的"跟随你的激情",对吧,有人以前听过这个吗,你观看的每个毕业演讲都有
that like injected in there so let me tell you why that happens first of all because now I'm up here giving advice and I'll explain to
那个,就像被注入那里,所以让我告诉你为什么这会发生,首先,因为现在我在上面给建议,我会解释
you why why why is that what every speaker wants to tell you the reason is that I'll speak for myself myself I have spent a large
你,为什么,为什么,为什么每个演讲者都想告诉你这个,原因是我会为自己说话,我花了很大
portion of my life doing something for which I had very little energy and it was tough and it felt like a grind and it and it was and it just absorbed a lot
一部分我的生活做了一些我几乎没有能量的事情,这很艰难,感觉像是一种磨砺,它,它只是吸收了很多
of of of energy I could fight through it with willpower for a little bit of time and I've spent en a lot of my time in an
能量,我可以用意志力坚持一段时间,我花了很多时间在一个
area that gave me a tremendous amount of energy and and there is no comparison and so the speakers are trying to say hey come up over on this side you know
给我巨大能量的领域,没有可比性,所以演讲者试图说,嘿,到这边来,你知道
go into the thing that gives you energy by the way the reason that they're on the stage in the first place is that they made that decision so that's why
进入给你能量的东西,顺便说一下,他们首先站在舞台上的原因是他们做出了那个决定,所以这就是为什么
they're sharing this this advice with you but it's very it can be very harmful advice to go follow your passion and here's why because it implies that you
他们与你分享这个建议,但它可能,它可能是非常有害的建议,去跟随你的激情,这里是我为什么这么说,因为它暗示你
have only one passion it implies that you're supposed to know what it is when you're 28 that you're supposed to go do it for the next 40 years and you're
只有一个激情,它暗示你应该知道它是什么,当你28岁时,你应该在接下来的40年里去做它,你
supposed to know how to follow it and I don't think any of those things are true at my firm Alpine we've invested in over 500 entrepreneurs who've built
应该知道如何跟随它,我不认为这些事情中的任何一个是真的,在我的公司Alpine,我们投资了500多名企业家,他们建立了
successful companies and not one of them followed that path even the people who will give up stand up and tell you that advice didn't follow that path so
成功的公司,他们中没有一个人遵循那条道路,甚至那些会站起来告诉你那个建议的人也没有遵循那条道路,所以
instead what I'm going to offer is for you to not follow necessarily this nebulous passion of which there's one and it's intimidating but instead to
相反,我要提供的是,你不必遵循这个模糊的激情,其中有一个,它是令人生畏的,而是
follow your just your energy whatever is giving you energy at the current time so there's this exercise that I want to do with you today which is called Nine
跟随你的,只是你的能量,无论什么在当下给你能量,所以有一个练习,我今天想和你们一起做,这叫做九
Lives and the way it works is imagine that you had nine parallel universes that you could you could partake in the first life is going to be the thing that
种生活,它的工作方式是,想象你有九个平行宇宙,你可以,你可以参与,第一种生活将是你现在正在做的事情
you're doing right now so for me that was I'm in the corporate job you know I'm going to live in the Bay Area I'm going to pay off some debt that's kind
所以对我来说,那是我在企业工作,你知道,我要住在湾区,我要还一些债务,那是
of Life number one and then lives two through n lives two through nine you have two rules the first rule is uh that you they all have to start from today so
生活一号,然后生活二到n,生活二到九,你有两个规则,第一个规则是,嗯,它们都必须从今天开始,所以
you can't go back in time all your all your remaining eight lives start with where you are right now the second rule is you want to find the things that are
你不能回到过去,你所有剩余的八种生活都从你现在的位置开始,第二个规则是,你想找到那些
you're super excited about so every one of those other lives should be something that you're so excited that you you jump out of bed to do so for me it might have
你超级兴奋的事情,所以其他每一种生活都应该是你如此兴奋,你跳下床去做的事情,所以对我来说,可能是
been okay my I I shared Life One Life two would be hey I want to start my own company someday and you know be a
好的,我,我分享了生活一,生活二会是,嘿,我想有一天创办我自己的公司,你知道,成为
Founder be a CEO life three I'd love to be a professor someday at Stanford Business School life four I'd love to be a monk and become enlightened Life Five
创始人,成为CEO,生活三,我想有一天成为斯坦福商学院的教授,生活四,我想成为一名僧侣,开悟,生活五
I'd love be a DJ in Vegas you know life six I'd be a writer social media uh influencer you know whatever you come up with these these these things that are
我想在拉斯维加斯当DJ,你知道,生活六,我会成为一名作家,社交媒体,嗯,影响者,你知道,无论你想出什么,这些,这些,这些让你
exciting for you and then what you've done when you do this is you found things that you have energy for energy is the language of your
兴奋的事情,然后当你这样做时,你做了什么,你找到了你有能量的事情,能量是你
soul that second voice that I access that day on the run the way that it talks to you is through your energy it doesn't use words it uses your whole
灵魂的语言,第二个声音,我在那次跑步中接触到的,它与你交谈的方式是通过你的能量,它不使用单词,它使用你的整个
body and shows you things for which you have energy and that's how it's talking to you so when you're excited about something when you're excited about
身体,向你展示你有能量的事情,这就是它与你交谈的方式,所以当你对某事感到兴奋时,当你对
someone when something is firing you up it's your soul talking to you that's it's it's voice so you've just created with these Nine Lives nine things that
某人感到兴奋时,当某事让你兴奋时,那是你的灵魂在对你说话,那是它的声音,所以你刚刚用这九种生活创造了九件
you're super excited about so that's how you're going to listen to your your your soul there's two things you can do with this exercise the first is as you're on
你超级兴奋的事情,所以这就是你如何听从你的,你的,你的灵魂,你可以用这个练习做两件事,第一件是当你
path one and you're and you're cranking away on path one pull something in from one of those other lives that you that gives you a tremendous amount of energy
在路径一上,你,你在路径一上努力工作,从其他生活中拉一些东西,那些给你巨大能量的东西
so you could pull in playing the guitar or playing a sport or writing a book or writing a blog or teaching a class at Stanford or all these things and what
所以你可以拉入弹吉他,或做运动,或写书,或写博客,或在斯坦福教课,或所有这些事情,什么
happens when you pull something in like that is your energy will become infectious you'll light a spark you'll light a match and that'll that'll actually inflame the rest of your life
当你拉入这样的东西时会发生什么,是你的能量会变得具有感染力,你会点燃火花,你会点燃火柴,那会,那会实际上点燃你生活的其余部分
with excitement so that's one way that's the first way that you can use that exercise the second way which I think is even more powerful is ask yourself this
兴奋,所以这是一种方式,这是你可以使用那个练习的第一种方式,第二种方式,我认为更强大,是问自己这个
question of all nine of those lives what would I do if I knew I wouldn't fail which one of those would I choose that is by definition silencing that
问题,关于所有九种生活,如果我知道我不会失败,我会做什么,我会选择哪一个,这从定义上就是让那个
voice of fear and really getting in touch with that thing that is your most dear dream in class of 2024 I would argue at some point in your life that's the path
恐惧的声音安静下来,真正接触那个东西,那是你最珍贵的梦想,2024届毕业生,我认为在你生活的某个时刻,那是你想要的路径
that you want to be on the thing you would do if you knew you wouldn't fail and I think that's what you that's where you'll find your richest your richest
你想走的路,如果你知道你不会失败,你会做的事情,我认为那是你,那是你会发现你最丰富的,你最丰富的
