简单青春励志英语短文（带翻译）
导读：人生的底色是荒诞随机和虚无。但正因为如此，无畏的抗争和奋斗，这种姿态，才是你自由意志的最终体现。所以，努力，是你首先要决定努力，无论成败，都需要努力，是你的决定本身，决定了你面对命运的姿态。而励志文，只不过是你选择好方向之后，顺手抄起的一根登山杖。
篇一：梦想的力量
the power of the dream
when someone looks into your eyes they should see something alive within you. having a dream is like owning a lighthouse1 which directs you on your journey.
at every turn we come across its mystery. at each new level we become more of the person we were meant to become. in lonely times, when we pass through a storm of disappointment, we find our faith is unshaken, our strength still strong.
believe in your faith. set the vision before your eyes. write down your most sincere dreams and when the opportunity comes, step into your dream. it may take one season or more, but the result is the same. make big dreams and then go out and make them realities. the highest hopes of the dreamer are revealed with every step taken in their journey to the impossible. for a season we must protect the dream so that it can grow quietly on the inside. but if we tenderly care for our deepest expectations, slowly but surely the dream will become new life.
dreaming is an act of faith. the light of your expectations will cast off the shadows of a disbelieving world. god has given us the dreamer as a gift to light an unbelieving world.
find your treasure within and cherish2 it. tomorrow is waiting for you to take the first step.
翻译：梦想的力量
别人看你的眼睛时,他应当体会到你内心的活力。怀揣梦想就像是拥有一座引领你前行的灯塔。
每个转折关头,它给wǒ men带来奇迹。每个新的起点,wǒ men脱胎换骨,焕然一新。孤独中wǒ men挺过失望的阴霾,发现wǒ men的信念不曾动摇,wǒ men的力量依然强大。
秉持信念,期盼未来。许下你最真诚的梦想,一旦机会来临,就为之拼搏。也许要花一季甚或更多的时间,但结局不会改变。立大志,倾全力,成现实。前途未卜,唯有一步一个脚印,梦想者的至高希冀才会实现。wǒ men必须珍存梦想,给它一季的保护,让它在内心悄然生发。然而wǒ men还得温柔呵护wǒ men内心至深的期许,慢慢地梦想必将成就新的生命。
梦想是实现信仰的第一步。你的期待熠熠光辉,它会驱逐不信的阴影。上帝赋予wǒ men梦想的天资,去点亮不曾确信的世界。让梦想的财富寄于心中,珍爱它,明天正等着你跨出第一步。
篇二：生存还是毁灭
to be or not to be
outside the bible, these six words are the most famous in all the literature of the world. they were spoken by hamlet when he was thinking aloud, and they are the most famous words in shakespeare because hamlet was speaking not only for himself but also for every thinking man and woman. to be or not to be, to live or not to live, to live richly and abundantly and eagerly, or to live dully and meanly and scarcely. a philosopher once wanted to know whether he was alive or not, which is a good question for everyone to put to himself occasionally. he answered it by saying: "i think, therefore am."
but the best definition of existence ever saw did another philosopher who said: "to be is to be in relations." if this true, then the more relations a living thing has, the more it is alive. to live abundantly means simply to increase the range and intensity of our relations. unfortunately we are so constituted that we get to love our routine. but apart from our regular occupation how much are we alive? if you are interest-ed only in your regular occupation, you are alive only to that extent. so far as other things are concerned--poetry and prose, music, pictures, sports, unselfish friendships, politics, international affairs--you are dead.
contrariwise, it is true that every time you acquire a new interest--even more, a new accomplishment--you increase your power of life. no one who is deeply interested in a large variety of subjects can remain unhappy; the real pessimist is the person who has lost interest.
bacon said that a man dies as often as he loses a friend. but we gain new life by contacts, new friends. what is supremely true of living objects is only less true of ideas, which are also alive. where your thoughts are, there will your live be also. if your thoughts are confined only to your business, only to your physical welfare, only to the narrow circle of the town in which you live, then you live in a narrow cir-conscribed life. but if you are interested in what is going on in china, then you are living in china~ if you’re interested in the characters of a good novel, then you are living with those highly interesting people, if you listen intently to fine music, you are away from your immediate surroundings and living in a world of passion and imagination.
to be or not to be--to live intensely and richly, merely to exist, that depends on ourselves. let widen and intensify our relations. while we live, let live!
译文：生存还是毁灭
“生存还是毁灭。”如果把《圣经》除外，这六个字便是整个世界文学中最有名的六个字了。这六个字是哈姆雷特一次喃喃自语时说的，而这六个字也就成了莎士比亚作品中最有名的几个字了，因为这里哈姆雷特不仅道出了他自己的心声，同时也代表了一切有思想的男男女女。是活还是不活——是要生活还是不要生活，是要生活得丰满充实，兴致勃勃，还是只是活得枯燥委琐，贫乏无味。一位哲人一次曾想弄清他自己是否是在活着，这个问题wǒ men每个人也大可不时地问问wǒ men自己。这位哲学家对此的答案是： “我思故我在。”
但是关于生存我所见过的一条最好的定义却是另一位哲学家下的：“生活即是联系。”如果这话不假的话，那么一个有生命者的联系越多，它也就越有生气。所谓要活得丰富充实也即是要扩大和加强wǒ men的各种联系。不幸的是，wǒ men往往会因为天性不够丰厚而容易陷入自己的陈规旧套。试问除去wǒ men的日常工作，wǒ men的真正生活又有多少?如果你只是对你的日常工作才有兴趣，那你的生趣也就很有限了。至于在其它事物方面，比如诗歌、散文、音乐、美术、体育、无私的友谊、政治与国际事务，等等——你只是死人一个。
但反过来说，每当你获得一种新的兴趣——甚至一项新的造诣——你就增长了你的生活本领。一个能对许许多多事物都深感兴趣的人是不可能总不愉快的，真正的悲观者只能是那些丧失兴趣的人。
培根曾讲过，一个人失去朋友即是死亡。但是凭着交往，凭着新朋，wǒ men就能获得再生。这条对于活人可谓千真万确的道理在一定程度上也完全适用于人的思想，它们也都是活的。你的思想所在，你的生命便也在那里。如果你的思想不出你的业务范围，不出你的物质利益，不出你所在城镇的狭隘圈子，那么你的一生便也只是多方受着局限的狭隘的一生。但是如果你对当前中国那里所发生的种种感到兴趣，那么你便可说也活在中国;如果你对一本佳妙小说中的人物感到兴趣，你便是活在一批极有趣的人们中间;如果你能全神贯注地听点好的音乐，你就会超脱出你的周围环境而活在一个充满激情与想象的神奇世界之中。
生存还是毁灭——活得热烈活得丰富，还是只是简单存在，这就全在wǒ men自己。但愿wǒ men都能不断扩展和增强wǒ men的各种联系。只要一天wǒ men活着，就要一天是在活着。
篇三：成功的关键在于自己
to respect my work, my associates and myself. to be honest and fair with them as i expect them to be honest and fair with me. to be a man whose word carries weight. to be a booster, not a knocker; a pusher, not a kicker; a motor, not a clog.
to base my expectations of reward on a solid foundation of service rendered; to be willing to pay the price of success in honest effort. to look upon my work as opportunity, to be seized with joy and made the most of, and not as painful drudgery to be reluctantly endured.
to remember that success lies within myself; in my own brain, my own ambition, my own courage and determination. to expect difficulties and force my way through them, to turn hard experiences into capital for future struggles.
to interest my heart and soul in my work, and aspire to the highest efficiency in the achievement of results. to be patiently receptive of just criticism and profit from its teaching. to treat equals and superiors with respect, and subordinates with kindly encouragement.
to make a study of my business duties; to know my work from the ground up. to mix brains with my efforts and use system and method in all i undertake. to find time to do everything needful by never letting time find me or my subordinates doing nothing. to hoard days as a miser does dollars, to make every hour bring me pidends in specific results accomplished. to steer clear of dissipation and guard my health of body and peace of mind as my most precious stock in trade.
finally, to take a good grip on the joy of life; to play the game like a gentleman; to fight against nothing so hard as my own weakness, and endeavor to grow in business capacity, and as a man, with the passage of every day of time.
尊重我的工作、我的tóng shì和我自己。待之以真诚和公正，因为我也希望他们会这样对待我。做一个一言九鼎的人;做一个支持者而不是一个吹毛求疵者，一个推动者而不是一个抱怨者，一个马达而不是一个障碍。
先呈现良好的服务，再期待相应的报酬;以诚信换取成功;视工作为机遇，以快乐的心情投入其中，来换取最大的收获，而不是视之为难以忍受的苦差事。
牢牢铭记(于心)：成功的关键在于自己，在于自己的智慧，自己的雄心，自己的勇气和决心。对困难有充足的思想准备，努力战胜它们，让艰难的经历成为未来的竞争资本。
工作的同时别忘了愉悦身心，以最高的效率取得结果。耐心接纳合理的批评，并从中获益。尊重上级，也尊重tóng shì，尊重下属，给予他们亲切的鼓励。
认真思索自己的工作职责;熟悉自己的工作。对所做的事情尽心尽力、循间法路。找时间做所有应做的事情，不要让时间来找我或是让自己的下属闲着无所事事。象吝啬鬼对待金钱那样对待自己的每一天，让自己的每个小时都有所收获，让这些成功带来股利。避免无谓的体力和精力消耗，身体的健康和思绪的平静是最宝贵的财富。
最后，享受生命的快乐;在生活的竞赛中保持绅士风度;以最大的勇气和决心克服自己的弱点;我是一个男子汉，随着时间的流逝，我将在工作中学会成长。
