節錄演講中令人印象深刻的幾段話:

● when you’re screwing up and nobody’s saying anything to you anymore, that means they gave up. And that's a lesson that stuck with me my whole life. Is that when you see yourself doing something badly and nobody’s bothering to tell you anymore, that’s a very bad place to be. Your critics are your ones telling you they still love you and care.

因為當你搞砸,卻沒人願意責備你時,這代表他們放棄了.
我這輩子都不會忘記這個教訓. 如果發現你作錯某件事情,卻沒人願意批評,這是個非常糟糕的狀況.
批評的人是在告訴你,他們還在乎你,還愛你.

 

 experience is what you get when you didn’t get what you wanted.

經驗是在你無法獲得想要之物時才會學到

 

● But remember, the brick walls are there for a reason. The brick walls are not there to keep us out. The brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something. Because the brick walls are there to stop the people who don’t want it badly enough. They’re there to stop the other people.

但請記住,阻擋你的障礙必有其原因!這道牆並不是為了阻止我們
這道牆讓我們有機會展現自己有多想達到這目標,這道牆是為了阻止那些不夠渴望的人
它們是為了阻擋那些,不夠熱愛的人而存在的 !

 

● “Guys, that was pretty good, but I know you can do better.”
(我給了一個兩週的作業,他們交回來的東西好到..如果他們是用一學期作的,我也會給他們A
 老師,我該怎麼辦? Andy考慮了片刻,他說:你明天回到課堂上,看著他們的雙眼說:)
 各位,這相當不錯,但我知道你們可以作的更好

 

● When you’ve had something for ten years that you hold so precious, it’s the toughest thing in the world to hand it over. And the only advice I can give you is, find somebody better than you to hand it to.

當你擁有極為珍貴的東西十年之久時,將它轉交給別人是世上最困難的事情,
我唯一能給你的忠告就是:找個比你更好的人傳承給他

 

 All I want to do is visually communicate to you that you do five projects inBuilding Virtual Worlds, then you do three more. All of your time is spent in small teams making stuff. None of that book learning thing. Don and I had no patience for the book learning thing. 

我的概念很簡單,你先作五個虛擬世界的專題,然後再作三個,
你所有的時間都在小組內作專題,(朱註:全都是專題做到死)
我們不來看書那套,Don和我沒耐心作看書那套

It’s a master’s degree. They already spent four years doing book learning. By now they should have read all the books.
『這是個碩士學程,參加者在大學已經花了四年時間看書,讀碩士時應該已經把所有書看完了』

 

 When I was here studying to get my Ph.D. and I was taking something called the theory qualifier, which I can definitively say is the second worst thing in my life after chemotherapy. And I was complaining to my mother about how hard this test was and how awful it was, and she just leaned over and she patted me on the arm and she said, 
we know how you feel honey, and remember when your father was your age he was fighting the Germans. 』

當我在這邊攻讀博士學位時,我必須要考方法論,我可以說這是人生中僅次於化療的糟糕事,
我對我老媽抱怨這考試有多麼難,有多糟糕,她只是靜靜的傾聽,然後拍拍我的肩膀:
我們明白你的感受,但你爸跟你一樣大的時候,他必須冒著生命危險和德國人作戰。』

 

● It’s such a shame that people perceive you as so arrogant. Because it’s going to limit what you’re going to be able to accomplish in life. What a hell of a way to word “you’re being a jerk.”

人們認為你桀驁不馴,因為這將會限制你未來能夠成就的尺度,
用這樣的方法說:「你真是個混蛋」,實在太聰明了.

 

● I mean I don’t know how to not have fun. I’m dying and I’m having fun.
And I’m going to keep having fun every day I have left. Because there’s no other way to play it.

我不知道如何不快樂過生活,我都快死了,但我依然很快樂,
剩下的人生中,每一天我都要繼續快樂過生活,因為這是我唯一知道的方法。

 

● You just have to decide if you’re a Tigger or and Eeyore. I think I’m clear where I stand on the great Tigger/Eeyore debate.
[shows slide with an image of Tigger and Eeyore with the phrase “Decide if you’re Tigger or Eeyore”] 

你必須要決定自己要當跳跳虎,還是唉唷驢,我想我很清楚展現自己是支持哪一方的!

 

● Never lose the childlike wonder.
It’s just too important. It’s what drives us.

永遠不要失去孩提的天真,它會驅策我們,因此重要性難以言喻

 

● What can you do? And I said, well I’m a tenured professor of computer science.
And she said, well that’s very nice Professor Boy, but that’s not what I asked.
I said what can you do?

你可以作什麼?我說,我是個有終身聘的資科教授,
她說,這位教授弟弟,這很好,但我不是問你這個,我是問你能作什麼?

 

● There are moments that change your life. And ten years later if you know in retrospect it was one of those moments, you’re blessed.
But to know it at the moment !

有些時刻是改變你人生的瞬間,十年之後,你回頭看去,或許會知道就是那個瞬間,你是幸運的,
但要在那時就清楚這就是關鍵時刻
。★★★

 

● How do you get people to help you? You can’t get there alone.
People have to help you and I do believe in karma. I believe in paybacks.
You get people to help you by telling the truth. Being earnest.
I’ll take an earnest person over a hip person every day, because hip is short term. Earnest is long term.

你要如何讓人們幫助你?你不可能獨自一人完成一切,你必須要有人幫助你
我相信好心有好報,要讓他人幫助你:你必須說實話,要誠懇!
一個好人和一個誠懇的人我寧願選擇誠懇,因為好人是短期的,誠懇是長遠的。
當你搞砸的時候要道歉,把重點放在別人身上,而不是自己!

 

● Did you figure out the head fake? It is not about how to achieve your dreams. It is about how to lead your life. If you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself. (停止抱怨,勇敢的迎接挑戰和笑對人生) 

 

when you do the right thing, good stuff has a way of happening.

當你為所應為時,好事會找上你的

 

● Get a feedback loop and listen to it. Your feedback loop can be this dorky spreadsheet thing I did, or it can just be one great man who tells you what you need to hear. The hard part is the listening to it.

Anybody can get chewed out. It’s the rare person who says, oh my god, you were right. As opposed to, no wait, the real reason is… We’ve all heard that. When people give you feedback, cherish it and
use it.

任何人都可能因為護短而迷失
只有極少的人能說:天哪,你是對的!
大部分的人都會說:等等,是有原因的...。這些我們都聽過
當人們給你回饋時,請珍惜,並且善用

 

● Show gratitude.(要心存感激)
○ Don’t complain. Just work harder.( 別抱怨,更努力就是了 )
○ Be good at something, it makes you valuable.( 要有專精,這讓你更有價值 )

 

● Work hard.
I got tenure a year early as Steve mentioned. Junior faculty members used to say to me,wow, you got tenure early. What’s your secret?
I said, it’s pretty simple. Call my any Friday night in my office at ten o’clock and I’ll tell you.

要努力工作!
當我提前獲得終身聘,新老師經常問我:哇!你的秘訣到底是什麼?
很簡單," 週五晚上十點 "打到我辦公室,我就告訴你!

 

Be prepared. Luck is truly where preparation meets opportunity.

隨時做好準備,幸運其實只是妥善準備遇到機會而已

 

It’s not about how to achieve your dreams. It’s about how to lead your life.
If you lead your life the right way, the karma will take care of itself.  The dreams will come to you.

關鍵不在於如何達成夢想,而是如何無悔過人生。
如果你能好好過人生,人生自會為你尋找答案,你的夢想自會實現
