50. Be A Risk Taker
50. 去冒險吧!
I encourage all of you to explore any and all opportunities to pass along the benefits of your experience to those who will follow. This may sound like jargon, but it is not-it will add to your own self-esteem and enhance the pleasure of how you work and live.
我鼓勵你們盡可能地探索一切機會,用已有的經歷所得去指導|后面的人生。這似乎很難理解,但是不然,因為它會讓你更加自信,讓你工作和生活地更加快樂。
An important part of that experience is the time you have spent here. You will find that it forms a bridge to a larger world, a bridge based on warmth, on caring, on community and, yes, on expectations. That larger world will engulf you; you can never completely escape it.
在凱洛格商學院的求學時光是你們人生經歷的一個重要組成部分。你將發現,這是搭向更廣闊世界的一座橋梁。它不僅帶給你溫暖、愛和歸屬感,而且還讓你對明天充滿希望。你將淹沒在更廣闊的世界里,但是你卻永遠也無法完全按棄這幾年對你的影響。
But you will find that the commitment to excellence--that passion to win--that this school has instilled in you will serve you well all the days that will follow. My early days at Boston Latin School and later at Harvard inspired in me both the ability to achieve great success and the character to withstand tremendous disappointment.
你會發現,這個學校灌輸給你們的追求卓越的理念——或者說,贏的激情——會很好地指引你以后的人生。我早期在波士頓拉丁學校和后來在哈佛的時光不僅激發了我獲得成功的能力,而且塑造了我敢于承受巨大失敗的性格。
At Kellogg, you have learned to think analytically, to organize your mind to accept and assess every possible option, very potential avenue. But more importantly, Kellogg has taught you to act on that knowledge, decisively and aggressively. While you arrived here knowing how to take a chance, you leave here knowing how to take the right one. Trust your gut. Be a risk taker.
在凱洛格商學院,你們學會了分析性地思考,知道怎樣接受和權衡每一個可能的選擇、每一個可能的途徑。但是,更重要的是,凱洛格商學院教給你的是要采斷而又進取地奉行這個能力。當你們來到這里時,你們學會怎樣抓住機會;那么,當你們離開這里,你們要知道怎樣抓住正確的機會。相信你的內心,去冒險吧!
