TED英語演講稿： 八個成功的秘籍
This is really a two-hour presentation I give to high school students, cut down to three minutes. And it all started one day on a plane, on my way to TED, seven years ago. And in the seat next to me was a high school student, a teenager, and she came from a really poor family. And she wanted to make something of her life, and she asked me a simple little question. She said, "What leads to success?"
And I felt really badly, because I couldn't give her a good answer. So I get off the plane, and I come to TED. And I think, jeez, I'm in the middle of a room of successful people! So why don't I ask them what helped them succeed, and pass it on to kids? So here we are, seven years, 500 interviews later, and I'm gonna tell you what really leads to success and makes TED-sters tick.
And the first thing is passion. Freeman Thomas says, "I'm driven by my passion." TED-sters do it for love; they don't do it for money. Carol Coletta says, "I would pay someone to do what I do." And the interesting thing is: if you do it for love, the money comes anyway.
Work! Rupert Murdoch said to me, "It's all hard work. Nothing comes easily. But I have a lot of fun." Did he say fun? Rupert? Yes! TED-sters do have fun working. And they work hard. I figured, they're not workaholics. They're workafrolics.
Good! Alex Garden says, "To be successful put your nose down in something and get damn good at it." There's no magic; it's practice, practice, practice.
And it's focus. Norman Jewison said to me, "I think it all has to do with focusing yourself on one thing."
And push! David Gallo says, "Push yourself. Physically, mentally, you've gotta push, push, push." You gotta push through shyness and self-doubt. Goldie Hawn says, "I always had self-doubts. I wasn't good enough; I wasn't smart enough. I didn't think I'd make it." Now it's not always easy to push yourself, and that's why they invented mothers. (Laughter) Frank Gehry -- Frank Gehry said to me, "My mother pushed me."
Serve! Sherwin Nuland says, "It was a privilege to serve as a doctor." Now a lot of kids tell me they want to be millionaires. And the first thing I say to them is: "OK, well you can't serve yourself; you gotta serve others something of value. Because that's the way people really get rich."
Ideas! TED-ster Bill Gates says, "I had an idea: founding the first micro-computer software company." I'd say it was a pretty good idea. And there's no magic to creativity in coming up with ideas -- it's just doing some very simple things. And I give lots of evidence.
Persist! Joe Kraus says, "Persistence is the number one reason for our success." You gotta persist through failure. You gotta persist through crap! Which of course means "Criticism, Rejection, Assholes and Pressure." (Laughter) So, the big -- the answer to this question is simple: Pay 4,000 bucks and come to TED. Or failing that, do the eight things -- and trust me, these are the big eight things that lead to success.
Thank you TED-sters for all your interviews!
Richard在開頭講了一個小故事，說7年前在飛機上有個小女孩問他怎么才能成功，他答不上來，於是他用了7年時間，採訪了500位成功人士，得出了如下結論：
1.PASSION熱情
Do it for love,Not Money 愛上這事情，而不是為了錢。
2.Work努力工作
It’s all hard work.Nothing come easily.But I have a lot of Fun.——Rupert Murdoch, big cheese CEO
3.Good把它做好
To be successful,put your nose down in something and get damn good at it.——Alex Garden, game developer
4.Focus專注
I think it all has to do with focusing yourself to one thing——Norman Jewison,filmmaker
5.Push推動/敦促
Push yourself,Physically mentally,you gotta PUSH PUSH PUSH——David Gallo,marine scientist
6.Serve服務
It was aprivelege to serve ad a doctor.—–Sherwin nuland ,profassor of surgery Yale
7.IDEAS創意
Listen/be curous/observe/ask questions/problem/solve/make connetions
8.Persist堅持
Persistence is the number one reason for our success—–Joe Kraus ,co-founder,Excite
【激情 passion】做事情要有激情，激情源自驅動力，成功人士總是被熱愛驅動。
Freeman Thomas 說：“我總是被我的熱情所牽引著”
TED的講演者因為熱愛才做事情，不是為了錢。
Carol Colletta 說：“我會付給別人錢去做我的工作。”
有趣的是：如果你是為了熱愛而做的，錢自然而然就來了。
【努力 work】
Rupert Murdoch 曾經告訴過我 “天上不會掉餡餅，做任何事情，都要努力的做，開心的做。” 他提到了樂趣?Rupert?是的!
TED講演者都有一份充滿樂趣的工作，而且他們都很刻苦。 我覺得，他們都不是工作狂，他們是享受工作狂。
【精通 good】
不管做什麼事情，都要沉浸其中，一定要做到最好。想要做到精通沒有秘訣，就是練習，練習，再練習。
【專注 focus】
“我想成功就要使自己專注於一件事情。”
【強迫 push】
強迫你自己。你要強迫自己去戰勝羞澀和自我懷疑。”Goldie Hawn說：“我總是懷疑自己不夠優秀，不夠聰明。 我從不相信我會成功。”
不過自己強迫自己不是容易的事情，這就是為什麼要發明媽媽。
【服務 serve】
現在很多孩子告訴我他們想成為百萬富翁。 但是我對他們說的是： “好的，但是你不能為你自己服務，”
“你要為他人服務，為他人創造價值，因為這就是人們致富的方式。"
【點子 ideas】
怎樣才能有創意?要聆聽(listen)，要觀察(observe)，要有好奇心(be curious)，不懂就問(ask question)，解決問題(problem solve)，創造聯繫(make connections)。
【堅持 persist 】
恆心是成功的第一要訣。
Joe Kraus 說 :”你必須堅持度過失敗，你必須堅持度過crap“ ”這裡的crap是指”批評，拒絕，卑鄙小人和壓力“
相信我， 這重要的八點就是通向成功的秘訣。
寫好英文演講稿的關鍵三點
好的演講首先是一篇好的文章。Abraham Lincoln的"Gettysburg Address" 或Martin Luther King, Jr的"I Have a Dream"既是震撼人心的演講，也是蘊涵深刻而又富有文采的好文章。如果沒有好的稿子，演講者再投入, 聲音情感再充沛，也不會觸動聽眾內心。就像沒有好劇本，光靠演員演的好是不夠的。
寫好演講稿，不僅需要結構上的精心構思和文字的推敲斟酌，還要日常閱讀的積累和對生活的留意觀察。下面是我認為寫好演講稿最關鍵的有三點。
1. 主題明確 (a clear core message)
好的演講稿雖然語言千變萬化，但始終圍繞一個中心主題。主題就是你演講的“take-home message”。在準備演講時，先問自己我要用我的演講告訴聽眾什麼?用一句話來回答。
在20xx Stanford Commencement Speech中，Steve Jobs從頭至尾講了三個故事，但始終圍繞主題—don’t lose sight of your dreams and passions, regardless what happens to you. 他文中的 "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life." "Stay hungry. Stay foolish." 強調主題，擲地有聲。
正如Chris Anderson (curator of TED Talks) 所說的：" Pick one idea, and make it the through-line running through your entire talk, so that everything you say links back to it in some way."
沒有主題或主題不明確的演講是缺少靈魂的，很快就被聽眾遺忘了。沒有人愛看一篇流水賬般的文章，同樣, 也沒有人願意聽流水賬般的演講。
2. 結構清晰 (well-organized structure)
文章的結構是常被人忽略的東西，但結構對演講來說實在太要了。在讀文章時，如果讀者第一遍沒看明白，可以翻回去再看，但聽演講時不行，說過及過，聽眾沒有跟上你所講的內容，就沒辦法再弄明白了。邏輯清晰，層次分明的結構可以便於聽眾按照演講者的思路一步一步的理解內容。
首先，要有清晰的introduction, body, 和conclusion (引言，主體，結論)。 這是演講內容的三要素。引言主要為了吸引聽眾和引入主題，主體是演講的主要部分，包括具體論點(main points)和論據 (supporting material/evidence)。 結論部分讓演講自然結束並激發聽眾去思考和回味。
其次，主體部分的論點論據要有邏輯性，環環相扣，而不是單純的把有關資料，數據，想法等羅列出來，像一盤散沙。常用的主體大綱有按照主題(topical),時間(chronological)，方位(spatial)， 提出問題-解決問題(problem-solution), 等。我不提倡演講稿拘泥於這幾種大綱類型，演講者根據自己的內容組織大綱。 切記東一句西一句，不講條理。
再有就是做好內容之間的過渡(transition)。 Transition讓演講顯得更加流暢，讓各種內容之間自然過渡，不顯唐突。Transition沒有想的那么容易。我聽過有人在演講中說了很多"then" 或 "but" 既重複又枯燥。想想還有沒別的方法來表示遞進或轉折?
3. Show, Don’t Tell
幾乎所有的creative writing 教材和課程都會強調 “show, don’t tell.”
比如，
我可以Tell: The morning was beautiful.
我也可以Show：As the sun rose, the morning dew glistened off the grass. The cool breeze whispered through trees. A hummingbird flew by my window, chirping a gentle lovely song.
前者平鋪直敘，非常泛泛。而後者描述畫面，從視覺(dew glistened off the grass)，觸覺(cool breeze)和聽覺(whispered through the trees; chirping a gentle lovely song)來表現出早上之美。
文學作品中show而不tell的例子很多，以後可以單獨細說。演講也講究show, not tell, 將聽眾帶入演講者表達的意境中，產生共鳴。
在I Have a Dream” 中, Martin Luther King, Jr. 沒有單純地重複 I have a dream of equal rights之類的話，而是描述了他夢想中的種族平等時的各個具體的場景：
“I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia, the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.
I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a state sweltering with the heat of injustice, sweltering with the heat of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.
I have a dream that 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.”
在演講中的“show, don’t tell” 還包括講述引人入勝的故事，列舉生動的例子。
Simon Sinek 的TED Talk “How great leaders inspire action”用了很多例子，而且都是關於大家很熟悉的公司的例子如Apple, Dell等。這些例子自然而充分的展示了他的演講主題。讓一個本來可能顯得抽象的model簡單化，而且一直吸引著聽眾。
不知不覺，又寫的有點兒長了，希望大家沒覺得枯燥。歸總一句話：演講絕不僅是台上滔滔不絕，更要言之有物，條理清晰。

My fellow citizens:
我的同胞們：
I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you have bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation, as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition.
今天我站在這裡，看到眼前面臨的重大任務，深感卑微。我感謝你們對我的信任，也知道先輩們為了這個國家所作的犧牲。我要感謝布希總統為國家做出的貢獻，以及感謝他在兩屆政府過渡期間給與的慷慨協作。
Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because We the People have remained faithful to the ideals of our forbearers, and true to our founding documents.
迄今為止，已經有44個美國總統宣誓就職。總統的宣誓有時面對的是國家的和平繁榮，但通常面臨的是烏雲密布的緊張形勢。在緊張的形勢中，支持美國前進的不僅僅是領導人的能力和遠見，也在於美國人民對國家先驅者理想的信仰，以及對美國立國檔案的忠誠。
So it has been. So it must be with this generation of Americans.
前輩們如此，我們這一代美國人也要如此。
That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war, against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost; jobs shed; businesses shuttered. Our healthcare is too costly; our schools fail too many; and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet.
現在我們都深知，我們身處危機之中。我們的國家在戰鬥，對手是影響深遠的暴力和憎恨;國家的經濟也受到嚴重的削弱，原因雖有一些人的貪婪和不負責任，但更為重要的是我們作為一個整體在一些重大問題上決策失誤，同時也未能做好應對新時代的準備。我們的人民正在失去家園，失去工作，很多企業倒閉。社會的醫療過於昂貴、學校教育讓許多人失望，而且每天都會有新的證據顯示，我們利用能源的方式助長了我們的敵對勢力，同時也威脅著我們的星球。
These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable but no less profound is a sapping of confidence across our land - a nagging fear that America's decline is inevitable, and that the next generation must lower its sights.
統計數據的指標傳達著危機的訊息。危機難以測量，但更難以測量的是其對美國人國家自信的侵蝕--現在一種認為美國衰落不可避免，我們的下一代必須低調的言論正在吞噬著人們的自信。
Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America - they will be met.
今天我要說，我們的確面臨著很多嚴峻的挑戰，而且在短期內不大可能輕易解決。但是我們要相信，我們一定會度過難關。
On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord.
今天，我們在這裡齊聚一堂，因為我們戰勝恐懼選擇了希望，摒棄了衝突和矛盾而選擇了團結。
On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn out dogmas, that for far too long have strangled our politics.
今天，我們宣布要為無謂的摩擦、不實的承諾和指責畫上句號，我們要打破牽制美國政治發展的若干陳舊教條。
We remain a young nation, but in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.
美國仍是一個年輕的國家，借用《聖經》的話說，放棄幼稚的時代已經到來了。重拾堅韌精神的時代已經到來，我們要為歷史作出更好的選擇，我們要秉承歷史賦予的寶貴權利，秉承那種代代相傳的高貴理念：上帝賦予我們每個人以平等和自由，以及每個人盡全力去追求幸福的機會。
In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of short-cuts or settling
