成功的定義英語演講稿
it is easy to describe success in terms of money, fame and reputation.
but i believe that success is not external.
i believe that success comes from within.
my definition of success is to be true to yourself, and be true to others.
that means, that you must cherish your personal ideal even in the face of adversity.
i also believe that success is not discriminatory.
success is not restricted to such a class of people, in fact, it may be achieved by any person irrespective of his race, creed, gender and economic background.
a good example of success is that of beethoven.
he is one of the worlds most famous composers, yet he was deaf.
he could not hear the majestic pieces of music that he created.
yet, in the face of this adversity, he was able to maintain his ideals--that of composing music.
to exemplify what success means to me, i pose a question to all of you.
what brings us together here today? i believe that it is the beauty of the spoken word.
the effect of pause and the sound of rhetoric are unique to the spoken word.
i believe the beauty of the spoken word is even stronger for those who have difficulty in expressing themselves.
these people are reclusive and had their emotions hidden within them.
i once went to australia and i saw two pictures, once was drawn by a normal child, the other was drawn by a child with social inhibitions.
the picture drawn by the normal child was si-mp-le and plain.
the other was life-like, full of details and imagination.
what this shows is that these are ideas, emotions and feelings that are locked internally in these children.
my ideal is to be the key, spreading the beauty of the spoken words to these children.
these children have been neglected, but i feel that i can and should help these children to find themselves and be able to express themselves.
i realize that this is a difficult task, and there are many obstacles on the way.
but i believe in my ideals and i will stick to them--even in the face of adversity.
we should never have a premature abortion of ideals--let the child, let our ideals, stand the challenge.
for a life without ideals is not living.thank you!

譯文:成功之我見
by chen heng 陳恒 上海外國語大學(xué)
獲得第五屆全國英語演講比賽冠軍)
專家點(diǎn)評(píng):演講開頭用了一個(gè)寓言故事，十分生動(dòng)，最后點(diǎn)出對(duì)成功的看法，達(dá)到了點(diǎn)題的效果。
“once upon a time， there was a king who had a daughter as beautiful as a blooming rose. to all the suitors who came to the king's palace to ask for the hand of the princess, the old king assigned three tasks to be accomplished, each next to impossible. one day, into the king's palace came a handsome young prince..." well, you know the rest. the three tasks may be different in different versions, but the main plot is always the same, with the prince claiming the princess's hand triumphantly.
“很久以前，有個(gè)國王，他的女兒貌美如花。老國王向所有來求婚的男士提出了三個(gè)任務(wù)作為挑戰(zhàn)，而每一項(xiàng)任務(wù)都異常艱巨，幾乎不可能完成。一天，來了一位年輕英俊的王子……”好了，下面的故事你們都知道了。三項(xiàng)任務(wù)在不同的版本中各不相同，但關(guān)鍵部分的情節(jié)都如出一轍:王子成功地過關(guān)，得到了公主的芳心。
and the ending is always the same, finishing with the line "and they live happily every after."
而故事的結(jié)局也都一樣，最后一句都寫道:“從此他們幸福地生活在一起。
why aren't we tired of something so fanciful, so unrealistic, and, i would say, so unimaginative? how can a story like that endure generations of repetition`? because, i think, it is a typical success story. it is highly philosophical and symbolic. by implication, we see a 4-step definition of success: 1 ) a goal to be set. as represented by the beautiful princess; 2 ) challenges to be met, as represented by the three tasks; 3 ) the process of surmounting difficulties, as represented by the ordeals the youth goes through; and 4 ) the reward of success, as represented by the happy marriage.
為什么我們對(duì)如此美妙、如此不切實(shí)際,而我要說,如此缺乏想象力的東西這么樂此不疲呢?這樣的故事又如何能夠經(jīng)歷幾代人的重復(fù)?我想，因?yàn)樗堑湫偷某晒Φ睦印９适碌乃枷胄院軓?qiáng)，具有代表性。通過故事帶給我們的啟示，我們認(rèn)識(shí)到了成功定義中的四個(gè)步驟;第一，目標(biāo)的設(shè)定，有如故事里美麗的公主;第二，所遇到的困難和挑戰(zhàn)，就像三大任務(wù);第三，克服困難的過程，故事中青年經(jīng)歷重重難關(guān)可以作為象征;第四，就是成功的果實(shí)，如同幸福的婚姻。
the story not only caters to everyone's inward yearning for success, but also emphasizes the inseparability of the process and the result. the reward of success will be much amplified if the path leading towards it is treacherous, and vice versa. if a person inherits his father's millions and leads an easy life, he is not a successful person even in material terms, because there are no difficulties involved in his achieving affluence. the term "success", to be sure. will not sit still for easy definition. but as i understand it, the true meaning of success entails a combination of both the process and the satisfactory result of an endeavor. to clarify my view, let me give another analogy.
這個(gè)故事不僅迎合了人們內(nèi)心深處對(duì)成功的向往，也強(qiáng)調(diào)了過程和結(jié)果的不可分離。如果通往成功的道路崎嶇曲折，那么成功的回報(bào)必然碩果累累，反之亦然。如果一個(gè)人繼承了父輩的百萬家產(chǎn)而生活得輕松富足，那么，即使在物質(zhì)上，他也不能算是個(gè)成功人士，因?yàn)椋呢?cái)富并沒有經(jīng)過艱難困苦而獲得。確切地說，“成功”這個(gè)詞，不是個(gè)靜態(tài)簡(jiǎn)單的定義。在我的理解中，真正意義上的成功是奮斗的過程和經(jīng)歷了奮斗之后贏得的滿意的結(jié)果。請(qǐng)讓我另舉一例來闡明我的見解。
if we changed the rules of football, greatly enlarged the goal and sent away david seaman or any other goal keeper, so that another david, namely david beckham, could score easily, then scoring would not give him the thrill of accomplishment and the joy that it brings. if we further changed the rules by not allowing arsenal's defenders to defend, so that beckham needed only to lift a finger, actually a toe, to score, then there would be no game at all, because the meaning of winning would have disappeared. in accepting the challenge, in surmounting the difficulties and in enduring the hardship, success acquires its value. the sense of attainment varies in proportion to the degree of difficulties on overcomes.
如果我們?cè)囍淖冏闱虻谋荣愐?guī)則，將球門放得很大，換下大衛(wèi)?希曼或其他任何的守門員，這樣，隨便哪個(gè)“大衛(wèi)”，比如說，“大衛(wèi)?貝克漢姆”，就可以輕松進(jìn)球，然而這樣進(jìn)一球卻不能給他帶來成功的震顫與喜悅。如果我們?cè)俑囊桓谋荣愐?guī)則，不讓阿森納隊(duì)的防守來守門，那么，貝克漢姆只要?jiǎng)觿?dòng)手，其實(shí)就是抬抬腳就能進(jìn)一球，那樣的話、，實(shí)際上也沒有什么比賽可言了，因?yàn)橼A球的意義已經(jīng)不存在了。在接受挑戰(zhàn)、克服困難和經(jīng)歷磨難的過程中，“成功”的價(jià)值才得以豐滿。取得成果的意義和所克服的艱難的程度成正比。所謂成功的概念不是一成不變的.而曇相對(duì)而言的,因?yàn)槔щy的性質(zhì)也是相對(duì)意義上的。
the concept of success is not constant but relative because the nature of difficulty is also relative. something you do effortlessly might pose a great difficulty for a handicapped person. in acquiring the ability to do the same as you can, he or she achieve success. that's why we greatly admire stephen hawking, because, though confined to a wheel chair, he has contributed greatly to the field of science.
正常人不費(fèi)力氣做成的事對(duì)于一個(gè)殘疾人來說也許相當(dāng)困難。獲得了同正常人一樣的能力，這個(gè)殘疾人就獲得了成功。這便是我們?yōu)槭裁闯缇词返俜?霍金的原因—雖然行動(dòng)不便，受到了輪椅的限制，他依然為科學(xué)界作出了巨大的貢獻(xiàn)。
i myself, a rather shy person by nature who easily suffer from stage fright, had to pluck up great courage to take part in a speech contest like this. i could have stayed away and had an easy time of it by not entering the university level contest.but i chose to accept the challenge and to face the difficulties. now here i am. if i come out first, it will be a great success for me. if i come out last-i hope this will not be the case-but if i come out last, i will not call my attempt a failure, but will also celebrate it as a true success, because part of my goal is my own character training-to do more assertive, to be brave in face of difficulties. for me, it is a meaningful step forward, small as it is, in the long journey toward the final success in my life, because i have truly gained by participating.
就我自己而言，生性羞澀，容易怯場(chǎng)，不得不鼓起非常大的勇氣來參加此次的演講比賽。我完全可以待在一邊，不參加大學(xué)級(jí)別的比賽，而落得輕松自在。可是，我還是選擇了接受這一挑戰(zhàn)來面對(duì)困難。現(xiàn)在我來了，如果我能夠得第一的話.這對(duì)我來說就是巨大的成功。如果，我是最后一名—我希望情況不是這樣—但如果我真的是最后一名，我也不會(huì)認(rèn)為這次的嘗試是一次失敗，反而我要把它當(dāng)作一次真正的成功來慶賀，因?yàn)槲乙徊糠值哪繕?biāo)是對(duì)自己性格的鍛煉—更加堅(jiān)強(qiáng)、勇敢地面對(duì)困難。對(duì)我來說，這標(biāo)志著我在通向成功人生的漫漫征途中又向前邁進(jìn)了一步，盡管是很小的一步，但是我確實(shí)通過參與真正地獲得了收益。
let us return to our handsome young prince and the 4-step definition of success. you my have noticed that the usual worldly criteria of wealth, position and fame were not mentioned as part of the story, but rather, it emphasized the process of overcoming difficulties. the ancient wisdom had already defined the meaning of success, and this is my definition, too.
回到我們年輕英俊的王子和對(duì)“成功”的四步驟定義上吧，您也許已經(jīng)注意到了財(cái)富、地位和名譽(yù)等這些世俗的.標(biāo)準(zhǔn)在故事中并未提及，相反故事強(qiáng)調(diào)了克服重重困難的過程。古代的智慧已經(jīng)對(duì)成功的意義下了定義，這也是我的定義。
thank you.
謝謝!
成功的定義英語演講稿 [篇3]
關(guān)于成功的英語演講稿一：
today i am very glad to be here to share with you my ideas of success. what is success? it is what everyone is longing for.sometimes success would be rather si-mp-le. winning a game is success; getting a high grade in the exam is success; ma-ki-ng a new friend is success; even now i am standing here giving my speech is somehow also success.
however, as a person's whole life is concerned, success becomes very complicated. is fortune success? is fame success? is high social status success? no, i don t think so. i believe success is the realization of people's hopes and ideals.nowadays, in the modern society there are many people who are regarded as the successful. and the most obvious characteristics of them are money, high position and luxurious life. so most people believe that s success and all that they do is for this purpose. but the problem is wether it is real success. we all know there are always more money, higher position and better condition in front of us. if we keep chasing them, where is the end? what will satisfy us at last? therefore, we can see, to get the real success we must need something inside, which is the realization of people's hopes and ideals.
different people have different ideas about success; cause people's hopes and ideas vary from one another. but i am sure every success is dear to everybody, cause it is not easy to come by, cause in the process of our striving for success, we got both our body and soul tempted, meanwhile we are enlightened by the most valuable qualities of human beings: love, patient, courage and sense of responsibility. these are the best treasures. so now i am very proud that i have this opportunity to stand here speaking to all of you. it is my success, cause i raise up to challenge my hope.
what is success? everyone has his own interpretation as i do. but i am sure every success leads to an ever-brighter future. so ladies and gentlemen, believe in our hopes, believe in ourselves, we, every one of us, can make a successful life!
wish you all good success!
成功的定義英語演講稿 [篇4]
is your definition of success a fatal mistake?
for some, success is defined in terms of the dollar amount on a paycheck. for others, it's the title on their business card. others may define success in terms of the accolades and awards they have won.
but the problem with how people define success these days is that when they're forced to change it, they can't. look at the businessmen who have committed suicide because they have lost fortunes. consider the workers who are fired and then go back to work, armed with a gun.
extreme cases, sure. not everyone considers killing themselves or others when their livelihood is threatened. but it does point out that maybe we need to revisit our own definition of success.
start by completing this definition: "success to me is…"
after you complete this sentence, then review it and determine if you're on the path to achieving that success. if you were to lose your job or money tomorrow, would your definition of success still be valid? or, would you consider yourself a failure?
i remember a job where i worked long, stressful hours and often labored for a boss who had mood swings like a freaking roller coaster. it made for a tense situation, to say the least. one day i was talking to a co-worker and the exhaustion was overwhelming. i felt so dissatisfied, frustrated and even angry. then it hit me: if i died that day, i didn't want the only thing on my tombstone to be "always met her deadlines."
ugh, i remember thinking. i wanted my life to account for more than that. it wasn't until months later that i started ma-ki-ng some real changes in my life, changes that i know made me much better able to balance my life and devote time and effort to more than my job.
right now, times are tough and some of us are beginning to panic. but i think it's a golden opportunity to really think about what is important in your life, and weed out the things that don't really matter.
you are the one who must define what success is to you. one thing i know for sure: you are more than a job title, you are worth more than a number on a paycheck and you are more than an award to hang on your wall. is the destination you have in mind worth the road you must travel? only you can answer that.
你對(duì)成功的定義是一個(gè)致命錯(cuò)誤嗎?
有些人用薪水定義成功。對(duì)另一些人來說，成功是名片上的頭銜。其它人也許根據(jù)贊譽(yù)和獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)來定義。
對(duì)于很多人來說，問題在于，讓他們改變自己對(duì)于成功的定義是不可能的。看看那些因?yàn)閾p失錢財(cái)而自殺的商人，想想被解雇后帶了一只槍回公司的員工。
當(dāng)然，這些都是極端例子。并不是每個(gè)人在生計(jì)受到威脅的時(shí)候會(huì)自殺或殺人。但這的確說明，也許我們需要重新定義成功。
首先，完成這個(gè)句子：“成功對(duì)我而言是……”
當(dāng)你完成了這個(gè)句子，然后重新審視一下，你是否處于取得這種成功的軌道上。如果你明天失去工作或錢財(cái)，你對(duì)成功的定義還有效嗎?你會(huì)認(rèn)為自己是一個(gè)失敗者嗎?
我曾長期從事一份有壓力的工作，情緒無常的老板讓人心力交瘁，至少讓局勢(shì)緊張。一天，同事交談時(shí)，我感到筋疲力盡。我覺得非常不滿、沮喪甚至是憤怒。突然萌生一個(gè)想法：如果我那天死了，我可不愿意我的墓志銘只有一句：“總能按時(shí)完成任務(wù)。”
呃，我思考著，我希望生活有更多意義。數(shù)月后，我開始對(duì)生活做出一些切實(shí)改變，讓我更能平衡生活，而不只是把時(shí)間和精力花在工作上。
時(shí)下不景氣，有些人開始驚恐。但是我認(rèn)為這是一個(gè)千載難逢的機(jī)會(huì)，讓你認(rèn)真思考你的生活中什么是重要的，并剔除那些不要緊的東西。
只有你自己能為自己定義成功。有一點(diǎn)我清楚：你不只意味著一個(gè)頭銜，不只意味著工資單上的數(shù)字，也不只意味著掛在墻上的那個(gè)獎(jiǎng)勵(lì)。為了到達(dá)你心中的目的地，你一定得走這樣一條路嗎?只有你能回答。
