If life seems unsuccessful, it’s not because of the challenges or limitations that stand in your way. It’s because you refuse to see the exceptional opportunities that those challenges represent.

This is your precious and unique life, and it is absolutely worth all the trouble and effort you must go through to make it great. Within you at this moment are beautiful dreams, and you can begin to live in the direction of those dreams whenever you choose.

Let go of the false security of just getting by, and get yourself into focus on a purpose that will bring your life gloriously to life. Your very own pathway to success is just one quick step away.

生活并不是過得去就行,而是需要我們每時每刻都有所超越,不斷取得成就,并且創造真正的、有意義的價值。

地上的一塊普通的石子只是躺在那里就做得很好了。然而,你注定是要做大事的。是的,當你努力提升自己時,你的確會遇到許多困難,哪怕只是提升一點點。幸運的是,你有能力戰勝那些挑戰。

如果生活看起來并不是一帆風順的,那并不是因為你前方的道路上有挑戰或阻礙,而是因為你沒有看到那些挑戰中蘊藏的良機。

這是你所珍愛的、獨一無二的生活。為了讓它變得更美好,經歷困難、付出努力都是值得的。此刻,你的內心充滿著美好的夢想,只要你選擇,你就可以朝著夢想的方向生活。

摒棄生活只要過得去就行這樣的錯誤觀點,全心投入一個目標——讓你的生活更加精彩。成功之路離你僅一步之遙。

Life is not about just getting by。 Life is about reaching ever higher， building one achievement on top of another， and creating real， meaningful value in each moment。

A mon stone on the ground does a great job of just getting by。 You， on the other hand， are destined1 for much more spectacular things。 Yes， indeed， you will certainly meet a number of challenges when you make the effort to raise your world even a little bit higher。 The good thing is， you are superbly equipped to thrive on those challenges。

If life seems unsuccessful， it’s not because of the challenges or limitations that stand in your way。 It’s because you refuse to see the exceptional opportunities that those challenges represent。

eagle acquired in a strong wind and rain in the wings, the plum blossom in full bloom in the cold weather assail the nostrils of the fragrance. in today's competitive times, we will not be timid, looking over, we will learn to survive in the competition, in the face of adversity in life to write music. as a philosopher said: the above on the fate of the people, confidence is the key to the fate! thorns in front of any problems, we will hold it constant. xue-hai vast, we have to do down the brave sailors, wind and the waves, the future together, the ancient saying goes: the trials and tribulations, as in ru yu. "youth in the footsteps of firms such as flow goes, the prime years of fighting can not afford to waste points. fellow students, let us seize the good life every day, towards the other side of the gold before. pro-yuan xian fish, it is better still active and networks. we use the wisdom and courage raised the ideal of sailing, with our youth and life played a strong tone of the times! when we abandoned the confusion, take the course; ground when we blinded, tireleyaojiang, the fate of the gates will be open to us, tempting time will come! the future is not a dream today, in our hands!

if i were a boy again, i would practice perseverance(毅力)more often, and never give up a thing because it was hard or inconvenient. if we want light, we must conquer darkness. perseverance can sometimes equal genius in its results. “there are only two creatures,” says a proverb, “who can surmount the pyramids—the eagle and the snail.”

if i were a boy again, i would school myself into a habit of attention; i would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. i would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once. the habit of attention becomes part of our life, if we begin early enough. i often hear grown-up people say “i could not fix my attention on the lecture or book, although i wished to do so” , and the reason is, the habit was not formed in youth.

if i were to live my life over again, i would pay more attention to the cultivation of the memory. i would strengthen that faculty by every possible means, and on every possible occasion. it takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately; but memory soon helps itself, and gives very little trouble. it only needs early cultivation to become a power.

if i were a boy again, i would look on the cheerful side. life is very much like a mirror: if you smile upon it, i smile back upon you; but if you frown and look doubtful on it, you will get a similar look in return.

inner sunshine warms not only the heart of the owner, but of all that come in contact with it. “who shuts love out ,in turn shall be shut out from love.”

finally, instead of trying hard to be happy, as if that were the sole purpose of life, i would, if i were a boy again, i would still try harder to make others happy.

英語演講稿經典勵志篇7

good evening， honorable judges， ladies and gentlemen。

it’s my great pleasure to stand here to present my speech—change the world， change ourselves。

it’s noticable that western holidays are becoming increasingly popular day by day， while chinese traditional festivals are being somewhat neglected。 not long before about 10 doctors in beijing university and qinghua unversity announced that we should reject the invasion of western holidays ，because they regard western holidays as an challenge against our traditional festivals and culture。

frankly speaking， i don’t quite agree with them。indeed， we should never neglect or even discard our traditonal festivals as china boasts a brilliant history and splendid traditions。 (examples)。but why can’t we absorb the meaningful western holidays and culture。

there are obvious reasons why some western holidays are so popular in china。 on the one hand， some of the western holidays which we chinese don’t have are reasonable and meaningful， such as father’s day and april fool’s day etc。 on the other hand，the prevalence of globalization enables western culture to prevail in china。 overwhelmed by such a trend，chinese unconsiciously get involved in western holidays and culture。

with the further development of the whole world， the cultural communication between different countries and nations becomes faster and more and more important。 we are indeed from different nations， but we are the citizens of the same world， so the outstanding culture of different nations is the commom wealth of everyone on the earth。the only way for us to protect our traditional culture is to reject the foreign culture? the answer is definitely no。 what we ought to do is to spare no effort to educate chinese to get to know and treasure our splendid traditions instead of rejecting foreign culture。 only by educating can we set our confidence and belief towards our culture。 only by educating can we preserve and promote the wealth that our ancesters left for us。

at last i’d like to share a famouse saying of gandhi with all of you ，that is:if you want to change the world， then you must change yourself first。”

英語演講稿經典勵志篇8

Don’t allow your troubles to get the best of you. Instead, allow those troubles to make the best of you.

Don’t tire yourself out fighting against the challenges. Instead, find new energy by embracing1 those challenges and working through them to create real value.

Always remind yourself that discour-agement is nothing more than a response you’ve chosen. When you find that you’ve chosen to let it be, you can just as surely choose to let it go.

Replace discouragement with determin-ation. It is your life’s energy, and you can point it in whatever direction you choose. Your most powerful response is not based only on what has already happened. Your most powerful response also takes into account what you wish to make happen next.

Look forward, and envision in great detail the future you desire. Then gather all your energy, and step forward to make it be.

不要被煩惱擊敗,相反,要讓這些煩惱磨練出更優秀的你。

不要因與挑戰作斗爭而身心疲憊,相反,要在接受挑戰、戰勝挑戰的過程中找到活力去創造真正的價值。

時常提醒自己,氣餒只不過是你自己的選擇。當你發現是你選擇了氣餒,你當然也可以選擇不這樣。

用決心消除氣餒,這就是你生命的活力,是放之四海而皆準的。你最有力的反應不僅僅受所發生的事情的影響,而且與你期待發生的事情有一定關聯。

向前看,詳盡地展望你所期盼的未來。然后集中你所有的精力,努力前進,讓夢想成真。

英語演講稿經典勵志篇9

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed-we hold theses truths to be self-Oevident, that all men are created equal. I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, sons of former slaves and sons of former slave owners will be able to sit together at the table of brotherhood. I have a dream my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. i have a dream today!

When we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and hamlet, from every state and city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God’s children-black men and white men , jews and Gentiles, Catholics and Protestants-will be able to join hands and to sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, “free at least ,free at last . Thank God Almighty, we are free at last.”

我有一個夢：有一天，這個國家將站起來，并實現他的信條的真正含義：我們將捍衛這些不言而喻的真理，即所有人生來平等。我有一個夢：有一天在喬治亞洲紅色的山丘上，從前的奴隸的子孫們能和奴隸主的子孫們像兄弟一樣坐在同一張桌旁;我有一個夢我的四個孩子有一天將生活在這樣一個國度，在那里，人們不以膚色，而是以品格來評價他們。

當自由的鐘聲響起的時候，當我們讓它從每一個村莊，每一個州，每一個城市響起的時候，我們將能夠加速這一天的到來。那是，上帝所有的孩子，無論黑人白人還是猶太人，異教徒。天主教徒，還是新教徒，他們都能夠手挽手歌唱那古老的黑人圣歌：“終于自由了，終于自由了，感謝上帝，我們終于自由了!”
