Why should not give up your dreams

坚持梦想的理由


Success is often just around thecorner.

成功往往就在眼前

If only you knew how close you were! If only you knew what an impact would be for one more phone call, one more interview, and just one more late night working on your passions. Often we give up far too soon. We can’t see what the future holds for us, but we sure can keep striving towards our dreams.

只要你知道离得有多近!只要你知道凭着激情再打一个电话、再进行一次面试、再多熬一次夜会带来什么样的影响。我们常常过早放弃。我们看不到未来是什么样子,但是我们能朝着梦想继续努力。

Setting an example.

树立榜样

Finally, if you have children (or might have them some day), you will be setting a good example. Do we want our children to tell stories about how comfortable we were sitting on our couch watching sitcoms, or do we want to be remembered for the passion we had for life? Hopefully we can show the future generations what it means to chase after our dreams. Most importantly, in the words of Winston Churchill,

最后,如果你有孩子(或将来会有),你会为他们树立一个好榜样。我们想让孩子讲起我们时,说我们惬意地坐在沙发上看情景喜剧吗?还是我们因对生活的激情而被别人记住?希望我们可以告诉后代什么是追随梦想。最重要的是,用温斯顿·丘吉尔的话来说,

“Never Never Never give up.”

“永远永远永远都不要放弃。”
