小编今天与大家分享一篇国外著名分析家面向中学生的一场3分钟演讲，希望这份浓缩了作者多年采访精华的演讲能够给广大家长和同学带来一点启迪。

为什么有人会成功？因为他们睿智？或者他们只是幸运？都不是。分析家 RichardSt. John 浓缩了他多年访谈的精华，用这个不容错过的3分钟演讲向中学生们揭示了成功的真实秘诀。以下为原文：

This is really atwo-hour presentation I give to high school students,cut downto three minutes.And it all started one day on a plane, on my way to TED,sevenyears ago.And in the seat next to mewas ahigh school student, a teenager,and shecame from a really poor family.And shewanted to make something of her life,and sheasked me a simple little question.She said,"What leads to success?"And Ifelt really badly,because I couldn't give her a good answer.So I getoff the plane, and I come to TED.And Ithink, jeez, I'm in the middle of a room of successful people!So whydon't I ask them what helped them succeed,and passit on to kids?

这实际上是我给高中生做的2个小时的演讲，现在被浓缩到了3分钟。所有的一切都是从7年前的一天开始，当时我坐在去参加TED会议的飞机上。在我邻座坐的是一个高中生，一个十几岁的年轻人。她生于一个贫穷的家庭，而她的愿望是成就一番事业，所以她问了我一个简单的小问题：“怎样做才能成功呢？” 我当时觉得糟透了，因为我不能给她一个满意的答案。后来我下了飞机，来到TED会场。忽然间我想到，天啊，我不是正置身于一屋子成功人士之中嘛！为什么我不问问他们是怎样走向成功的呢? 这样我就可以把答案告诉孩子们了。

So here we are,seven years, 500 interviews later,and I'mgonna tell you what really leads to successand makesTEDsters tick.And the first thing is passion.FreemanThomas says, "I'm driven by my passion."TEDstersdo it for love; they don't do it for money. Carol Coletta says, "I wouldpay someone to do what I do."And theinteresting thing is:if you do it for love, the money comes anyway.

所以就这样，7年间我采访了500人。现在我就要告诉你们是什么带来了成功，是什么启发了TED演讲者们。第一点是“热情！”。 FreemanThomas 说：“我总是被我的热情所牵引着”。TED的讲演者因为热爱而做事情，不是为了钱。Carol Colletta说：“我会付给别人钱去做我的工作。”有趣的是，如果你是为了热爱而做的，钱自然而然就来了。
Free Thomas: 美国著名的工业设计和汽车设计师，曾在保时捷、大众、克莱斯勒和福特公司。
Carol Colletta:

Work! RupertMurdoch said to me, "It's all hard work.Nothingcomes easily. But I have a lot of fun."Did hesay fun? Rupert? Yes!TEDsters do have fun working. And they work hard.Ifigured, they're not workaholics. They're workafrolics.

“刻苦！”Rupert Murdoch 曾经告诉过我：“天下没有白吃的午餐，都是靠刻苦！但是我得到了很多乐趣。”Rupert提到了乐趣？？？是的！TED讲演者都有一份充满乐趣的工作，而且他们都很刻苦。我觉得，他们都不是工作狂，他们是享受工作狂。
Rupert Murdoch: 全球首屈一指的新闻媒体大亨，现任新闻集团与21世纪福斯董事长与最大股东

Good! Alex Gardensays, "To be successful put your nose down in somethingand getdamn good at it."There's no magic; it's practice, practice, practice.And it'sfocus. Norman Jewison said to me,"Ithink it all has to do with focusing yourself on one thing."

“精通！”Alex Garden说：“要想成功，就要真的深入其中。然后做到精通。”想要做到精通没有秘诀，就是练习，练习，再练习。还有就是专注。Norman Jewison 告诉过我，“我想成功就要使自己专注于一件事情”。
Alex Garden: 微软Xbox，音乐、视频、阅读业务总经理
Norman Jewison: 加拿大知名电影导演、制片人暨演员，加拿大电影中心的创始人。

And push! DavidGallo says, "Push yourself.Physically,mentally, you've gotta push, push, push."You gottapush through shyness and self-doubt.GoldieHawn says, "I always had self-doubts.I wasn'tgood enough; I wasn't smart enough.I didn'tthink I'd make it."Now it's not always easy to push yourself,andthat's why they invented mothers. (Laughter)FrankGehry -- Frank Gehry said to me,"Mymother pushed me."

“强迫！”David Gallo说：“强迫你自己。从心灵上、精神上，你一定要强迫，强迫，强迫。”你要强迫自己去战胜羞涩和自我怀疑。Goldie Hawn说：“我总是怀疑自己不够优秀，不够聪明。我从不相信我会成功。”想要成功地强迫自己并不容易，这就是为什么要发明妈妈。Frank Gehry对我说："我妈妈过去总是督促我。"
David Gallo: 海洋勘探领域先锋
Goldie Hawn: 美国女演员、导演、电影监制
Frank Gehry: 获得普利策克奖的美国知名后现代主义及解构主义建筑师

Serve! SherwinNuland says, "It was a privilege to serve as a doctor."Now a lotof kids tell me they want to be millionaires.And thefirst thing I say to them is:"OK, well you can't serve yourself;you gottaserve others something of value.Becausethat's the way people really get rich."

“服务！”Sherwin Nuland 说：“能够作为一名医生为他人服务是一种荣幸。”现在很多孩子告诉我他们想成为百万富翁。但是我对他们说的第一句话是，“好的，但是你不能为你自己服务，你需要为他人提供对他人有价值的服务。”因为这就是人们致富的方式。“

Sherwin Nuland: 外科医生

Ideas! TEDsterBill Gates says, "I had an idea:foundingthe first micro-computer software company."I'd sayit was a pretty good idea.And there's no magic to creativity in coming up withideas --it's just doing some very simple things.And Igive lots of evidence.

“点子！”TED演讲者Bill Gates说：”我曾经有过一个点子，成立第一个微型计算机软件公司。“我必须承认这真的是很好的一个点子。对于能想出点子的创造力来讲没有什么魔力可言，都是些简单平常的事情。而且我可以举出很多证据。
Bill Gates:美国著名企业家、投资者、软件工程师、慈善家。

Persist! JoeKraus says,"Persistence is the number one reason for oursuccess."You gotta persist through failure. You gotta persistthrough crap!Which of course means "Criticism, Rejection,Assholes and Pressure."(Laughter)

“坚持！”Joe Kraus说：“恒心是我们成功地第一条原因。” 你必须坚持度过失败，你必须坚持度过crap。这里的crap是指“批评，拒绝，卑鄙小人和压力”（大笑）
Joe Kraus: Excite, JotSpot,DigitalConsumer.org创始人

So, the big --the answer to this question is simple:Pay 4,000bucks and come to TED.Or failing that, do the eight things -- and trust me,these arethe big eight things that lead to success.Thank youTEDsters for all your interviews!

所以，这个问题的答案很简单：付4000块来TED会场。如果不能来，就做到以上八点---相信我，这重要的八点就是通向成功的秘诀。谢谢TED讲演者接受我的采访！
