勵志英文演講演講稿

1、Yesterday is a memory tommorrow is a dream so live for today

just do it right now.I believe if you can dream it you can make it ,if

you do you will win if you don't you won't.Believe in youself trust

youself try your best.don't give up ,never give in, never lose hope ,never say impossible.Ladies and Gentlemen , Good afternoon!I?m very glad to stand here and give you a short speech.today my topic is “youth”.I hope you will like it , and found the importance in your youth so that more cherish it.First I want to ask you some questions:

1、Do you know what is youth?

2、How do you master your youth?

Youth is not a time of life, it is a state of mind;it is not rosy cheeks , red lips and supple knees, it is a matter of the emotions : it is the freshness;it is the freshness of the deep springs of life.Youth means a temperamental divdominance of courage over timidity of the appetite , for

adventure over the love of ease.This often exists in a man of 60 more than a boy of20.Nobody grows old merely by a number ofyears.We grow old by deserting our ideals.Years wrinkle the skin , but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.Worry , fear , self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.Whether 60 of 16 , there is in every human being ?s heart the lure of wonders, the unfailing childlike appetite of what?s next and the joy of the game of living.In the center of your heart and my heart there?s a wireless station : so long as it receives messages of beauty , hope ,cheer, couragAs you slowly open your eyes, look around , notice where the light

comes into your room;listen carefully, see if there are new sounds you

can recognize;feel with your body and spirit, and see if you can sense

the freshness in the air.Yes, yes, yes, it?s a new day, it?s a different day, and it?s a bright

day!And most importantly, it is a new beginning for your life, a

beginning where you are going to make new desicisions, take new actions,make new friends, and take your life to a totally unprecedented level!

In your mind?s eye, you can see clearly the things you want to have,the paces you intend to go, the relationships you desire to develop, and

the positions you aspire to reach.You can hear your laughters of joy and happiness on the day when

everything happens as you dream.You can see the smiles on the people around you when the magic moment

strikes.You can feel your face is getting red, your heart is beating fast, and

your blood is rushing all over your body, to every single corner of your

being!

You know all this is real as long as you are confident,passionate and

committed!And you are confident, you are passionate, you are committed!

You will no longer fear making new sounds, showing new facial

expressions, using your body in new ways,approaching new people, and

asking new questions.You will live every single day of your life with absolute passion, and

you will show your passion through the words you speak and the actions you

take.You will focus all your time and effort on the most important goals of

your life.You will never succumb to challenges of hardships.You will never waver in your pursuit of excellence.After all,you are

the best, and you deserve the best!

As your coach and friend, I can assure you the door to all the best

things in the world will open to you, but the key to that door is in your

hand.You must do your part, you must faithfully follow the plans you make

and take the actions you plan, you must never quit, you must never fear.I

know you must do it, you can do it, you will do it, and you will succeed!

Now stand firm and tall, make a fist, get excited, and yell it out:

I must do it!I can do it!I will do it!I will succeed!

I must do it!I can do it!I will do it!I will succeed!

I must do it!I can do it!I will do it!I will succeed!

hello!ladies and gentlemen, it is so nice to meet you!I am glad

that you can spend this precious time having this class in this

afternoon.Now please allow me to introduce myself to you.My name is Wangjia and I

majored in traffic engineering.Baoji is my hometown it is very

beautiful.and the people are very friendly.As we all knowen thingking is easy acting is difficult and to put

one's thoughts into actions is the most difficult thing in the world.So if we want to learn English well ,we must practice reading English

everyday ,acturally practicing repeatly is the best way to succeed.When

you speak ,don't care how poorly or how well you speak just care about

catching the chance to speak ,enjoy losing face or just forget your face

because the more you speak the better your English will become,never

afraid of

making mistakes because the more mistakes you make the more progress you will make.As a man living in the world ,we must try our best to make

each day our masterpiece and don't let our parents down ,don't ever let

our country down ,most importantly don't let ourself down.Yesterday is a memory tommorrow is a dream so live for today

just do it right now.I believe if you can dream it you can make it ,if

you do you will win if you don't you won't.Believe in youself trust

youself try your best.don't give up ,never give in, never lose hope ,never say impossible.The success is coming!Thank you!

In the world, I am sure that no one dare say he hasn't met any trouble all his life.So we must face failure.In fact, failure is not fearful, but important thing is how to face it correctly.Facing failure, people will never take their fate lying down.They will try their best to work harder and harder until at last they

succeed.Not being courageous to face setbacks, people have no chance to enjoy the pleasure of success.So they have nothing to do but feel sad and

empty all day and all night.In fact, they lose the chance of success themselves.My friend, whenever in trouble, please remember, “Failure is the mother of

success.”

我們必須面對失敗我們都知道：“失敗是成功之母。”但真正理解這句話的人卻不多。我相信，世界上沒有一個人敢說他一生中從沒遇到過任何麻煩。因此，我們必須面對失敗。其實，失敗并不可怕，重要的是如何正確看待它。敢于面對失敗，人們將不再由命運擺布。他們將全力以赴的辛勤工作，直到最后成功。不敢面對挫折，人們也就沒有機會享受成功的喜悅。他們會無所事事，終日沮喪而空虛。事實上，是他們自己把成功的機會喪失了。朋友們，無論何時你遇到了困難，請記住：“失敗是成功之母。”

Twists and turns in life are unavoidable and are not always bad.We should have a more optimistic view on life and try to make the most of it and draw lessons from the bumps and turns ゛long the way.If there is any single factor that makes for success in living, it is the ability to profit by defeat.Every success I know has been achieved because the person was able to analyze defeat and actually profit by it in his next undertaking.Confuse defeat with failure, and you are doomed indeed to failure.For it isn＇t defeat that makes you fail: it is your own refusal to see in defeat the guide and encouragement to success.Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of.They are routine incidents in the life of every man who achieves success.But defeat is a dead loss unless you do face it without humiliation, analyze it and learn why you failed.Defeat, in other words, can help to cure its own cause.Not only does defeat prepare us for success, but nothing can arouse within us such a compelling desire to succeed.If you let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away, he will cling more and more tightly until his whole weight is suspended.It is this same reaction which should give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated.If you exploit the power which defeat gives, you can accomplish with it far more than you are capable of.挫折

生活中假如有任何一個因素可以促進成功，那就是從挫折中受益的能力。我所了解的每一次達到的成功都是因為那個人能夠對挫折進行分析，在下一次工作中真正得益。假如混淆挫折和失敗，你就注定會真正失敗。因為不是挫折使你失敗，而是你自己拒絕從挫折中看到成功的方向和勇氣。

挫折并不可恥。在每個取得成功的人的生活中，挫折是家常便飯。但你一定要能夠面對挫折而不感到羞恥，能夠分析它并了解失敗的原因，否則挫折就是絕對的損失。換言之，挫折可以幫助解決它自身的起因。挫折不但可以為我們成功做好預備，而且沒有任何東西可以在我們的內心激發起如此強烈的想要成功的欲望。假如你讓一個嬰兒抓住一根竿子，然后試著把竿子抽出來，孩子就會越抓越緊，直到他們整個重量都依附于此。每次你被擊敗的時候，正是這同樣的反應會賦予你嶄新的更為巨大的力量。假如你能夠利用挫折帶來的這種力量，你就能夠用它來完成遠遠超乎你能力的目標。

Ideal is the beacon.Without ideal , there is no secure direction;without direction , there is no life.(Leo Tolstoy , Russian writer)

理想是指路明燈。沒有理想，就沒有堅定的方向；沒有方向，就沒有生活。Don“t part with your illusions.When they are gone you may still exist , but you have ceased to live.(Mark Twain , American writer)

不要放棄你的幻想。當幻想沒有了以后，你還可以生存，但是你雖生猶死。（(美國作家 馬克·吐溫)

The honest man takes pains, and then enjoys pleasure.正直的人先經歷痛苦，然后享受歡樂。

If you wait, all that happens is that you get older.如果你等待，發生的只是你變老。

——Larry McMurtry

To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.去奮斗，去追求，去發現，但不要放棄。

第二篇：勵志英文

有時候想想，當迷茫困惑時，有這樣一篇激勵人心的演講稿足矣，道理都明白，反復多讀幾遍，只是為了強化自己的意識，讓自己變得更堅定。

You've got to find what you love

你必須要找到你所愛的東西

I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world.I never graduated from college.Truth be told, this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation.Today I want to tell you three stories from my life.That's it.No big deal.Just three stories.我今天很榮幸能和你們一起參加畢業典禮，斯坦福大學是世界上最好的大學之一。我從來沒有從大學中畢業。說實話,今天也許是在我的生命中離大學畢業最近的一天了。今天我想向你們講述我生活中的三個故事。不是什么大不了的事情,只是三個故事而已。

The first story is about connecting the dots.第一個故事是關于如何把生命中的點點滴滴串連起來。

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit.So why did I drop out?

我在Reed大學讀了六個月之后就退學了,但是在十八個月以后——我真正的作出退學決定之前,我還經常去學校。我為什么要退學呢？

It started before I was born.My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption.She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife.Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl.So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: “We have an unexpected baby boy;do you want him?” They said: “Of course.” My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school.She refused to sign the final adoption papers.She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.故事從我出生的時候講起。我的親生母親是一個年輕的,沒有結婚的大學畢業生。她決定讓別人收養我, 她十分想讓我被大學畢業生收養。所以在我出生的時候，她已經做好了一切的準備工作，能使得我被一個律師和他的妻子所收養。但是她沒有料到,當我出生之后,律師夫婦突然決定他們想要一個女孩。所以我的生養父母（他們還在我親生父母的觀察名單上）突然在半夜接到了一個電話:“我們現在這兒有一個不小心生出來的男嬰,你們想要他嗎？”他們回答道:“當然！”但是我親生母親隨后發現，我的養母從來沒有上過大學,我的父親甚至從沒有讀過高中。她拒絕簽這個收養合同。只是在幾個月以后,我的父母答應她一定要讓我上大學,那個時候她才同意。

And 17 years later I did go to college.But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition.After six months, I couldn't see the value in it.I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out.And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life.So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK.It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made.The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.在十七歲那年,我真的上了大學。但是我很愚蠢的選擇了一個幾乎和你們斯坦福大學一樣貴的學校, 我父母還處于藍領階層，他們幾乎把所有積蓄都花在了我的學費上面。在六個月后, 我已經看不到其中的價值所在。我不知道我想要在生命中做什么,我也不知道大學能幫助我找到怎樣的答案。但是在這里，我幾乎花光了我父母這一輩子的所有積蓄。所以我決定要退學,我覺得這是個正確的決定。不能否認,我當時確實非常的害怕, 但是現在回頭看看,那的確是我這一生中最棒的一個決定。在我做出退學決定的那一刻, 我終于可以不必去讀那些令我提不起絲毫興趣的課程了。然后我還可以去修那些看起來有點意思的課程。

It wasn't all romantic.I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the five-cent deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple.I loved it.And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on.Let me give you one example:

但是這并不是那么羅曼蒂克。我失去了我的宿舍,所以我只能在朋友房間的地板上面睡覺,我去撿5美分的可樂瓶子，僅僅為了填飽肚子, 在星期天的晚上,我需要走七英里的路程，穿過這個城市到Hare Krishna寺廟,只是為了能吃上飯——這個星期唯一一頓好一點的飯。但是我喜歡這樣。我跟著我的直覺和好奇心走, 遇到的很多東西,此后被證明是無價之寶。讓我給你們舉一個例子吧：

Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country.Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed.Because I had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this.I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great.It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating.Reed大學在那時提供也許是全美最好的美術字課程。在這個大學里面的每個海報, 每個抽屜的標簽上面全都是漂亮的美術字。因為我退學了, 沒有受到正規的訓練, 所以我決定去參加這個課程，去學學怎樣寫出漂亮的美術字。我學到了san serif 和serif字體, 我學會了怎么樣在不同的字母組合之中改變空格的長度, 還有怎么樣才能作出最棒的印刷式樣。那是一種科學永遠不能捕捉到的、美麗的、真實的藝術精妙, 我發現那實在是太美妙了。

None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life.But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me.And we designed it all into the Mac.It was the first computer with beautiful typography.If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts.And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them.If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do.Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college.But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.當時看起來這些東西在我的生命中，好像都沒有什么實際應用的可能。但是十年之后,當我們在設計第一臺Macintosh電腦的時候,就不是那樣了。我把當時我學的那些家伙全都設計進了Mac。那是第一臺使用了漂亮的印刷字體的電腦。如果我當時沒有退學, 就不會有機會去參加這個我感興趣的美術字課程, Mac就不會有這么多豐富的字體，以及賞心悅目的字體間距。那么現在個人電腦就不會有現在這么美妙的字型了。當然我在大學的時候，還不可能把從前的點點滴滴串連起來,但是當我十年后回顧這一切的時候,真的豁然開朗了。

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward;you can only connect them looking backwards.So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.You have to trust in something-your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever, because believing that the dots that will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well-worn path, and that will make all the difference.再次說明的是,你在向前展望的時候不可能將這些片斷串連起來；你只能在回顧的時候將點點滴滴串連起來。所以你必須相信這些片斷會在你未來的某一天串連起來。你必須要相信某些東西：你的勇氣、目的、生命、因果。因為只有你相信這些點是存在關系的，你才能自信地踏上那條你夢寐以求的路，這條路可能帶領你偏離主流價值觀，而也正因此，人生可能真的與眾不同。

第五篇：英文勵志名篇

英文勵志名篇

Nobody grows merely by the number of years;we grow old by deserting our ideas.Youth

By Samuel Erman

Youth is not a time of life;it is a state of mind.青春不是年華，而是心境；

It is not a matter of rosy cheeks, red lips and supple knees.青春不是桃面、丹唇、柔膝，It is a matter of the will, a quality of the imagination, a vigor of the emotions;而是深沉的意志、恢宏的想象、熾熱的感情；

It is the freshness of the deep spring of life.青春是生命的源泉在涌流。

Youth means a temperamental predominance of courage over timidity, 青春氣貫長虹，勇銳蓋過怯弱，of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease.進取壓倒茍安。如此銳氣，This often exits in a man of 60 more than a boy of 20.二十后生有之，六旬男子則更多見。

nobody grows merely by the number of years;we grow old by deserting our ideas.年歲有加，并非垂老；理想丟棄，方墮暮年。

Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul.歲月悠悠，衰微只及肌膚；熱忱拋卻，頹唐必至靈魂。

Worry, fear, self-distrust bows the heart and turns the spirit back to dust.煩憂、惶恐、喪失自信，定使心靈扭曲，意氣如灰。

Whether 60 or 16, there is in every human being's heart the lure of wonders, 無論年屆花甲，抑或二八芳齡，心中皆有生命之歡樂，奇跡之誘惑，the unfailing childlike appetite of what's next and the joy of the game of living.孩童般天真久盛不衰。

In the center of your heart and my heart there is a wireless station;人人心中皆有一臺天線，so long as it receives messages of beauty, hope, cheer, courage and power from men and from infinite，只要你從天上人間接受美好、希望、歡樂、勇氣和力量的信號，so long as you are young.你就青春永駐，風華常存。

When the aerials are down, and your spirit is covered with the snows of cynicism and the ice of pessimism，一旦天線倒塌，銳氣如同冰雪覆蓋，玩世不恭，自暴自棄油然而生，then you've grown old, even at 20, but as long as your aerials are up, 即使年方二十，實已老矣；

to catch waves of optimism, there's hope you may die young at 80.然則只要豎起天線，捕捉樂觀的信號，你就有望在八十高齡告別塵寰時仍覺年輕。

一、THE SIGNIFICANCE OF FAILURE

Robert H.Schuller

Failure doesn t mean you are a failure，It does mean you haven t succeeded yet.Failure doesn t mean you have accomplished nothing，It does mean you have learned something.Failure doesn t mean you have been a fool，It does mean you had a lot of faith.Failure doesn t mean you ve been disgraced，It does mean you were willing to try.Failure doesn t mean you don t have it，It does mean you have to do something in a different way.Failure doesn t mean you are inferior，It does mean you are not perfect.Failure doesn t mean you ve wasted your life，It does mean you have a reason to start afresh.Failure doesn t mean you should give up，It does mean you must try harder.Failure doesn t mean you ll never make it，It does mean it will take a little longer.Failure doesn t mean God has abandoned you，It does mean God has a better idea.十大策略 失敗的意義

羅伯特*H*舒勒

失敗并不代表你是個失敗者，它只表明你尚未成功。

失敗并不代表你一無所獲，它只表明你吸取了一次教訓。

失敗并不代表你很愚蠢，它只表明你信心百倍。

失敗并不代表你無臉見人，它只表明你百折不回。

失敗并不代表你工夫白費，它只表明你的做事方法尚待改進。

失敗并不代表你低人一等。

它只表明你并非完人。

失敗并不代表你浪費生命，它只表明你有理由重新開始。

失敗并不代表你應該放棄，它只表明你要加倍努力。

失敗并不代表成功永不屬于你，它只表明你要付出更多的時間。

失敗并不代表上帝已經拋棄你，它只表明上帝還有更好的主意。

二、FOLLOW YOUR OWN COURSE

Neil Simon

Don t listen to those who say，“It s not done that way.”

Maybe it s not, but maybe you will.Don t listen to those who say，“You re taking too big a chance.”

Michelangelo would have painted the Sistine Floor，and it would surely be rubbed out by today.Most importantly, don t listen

When the little voice of fear inside of you

rear its ugly head and says，“They re all smarter than you out there.They re more talented，They re taller, blonder, prettier, luckier and have connection

s...”

I firmly believe that if you follow a path that interests you，Not to the exclusion of love, sensitivity, and cooperation with o

thers，But with the strength of conviction

That you can move others by your own efforts，And do not make success or failure the criteria by which you live,The chances are you ll be a person worthy of your own respect.走自己的路

尼爾*西蒙

別聽那些人的話，“這事不能那么做。”

也許是不能那么做，可是也許你就會那么做。

別聽那些人的話，“你這個險冒得太大了。”

米開朗琪羅可能在西斯廷教堂的地板上作過畫，到今天肯定已經被抹掉了。

最重要的是，當你心中恐懼的聲音，抬起它丑陋的頭說，“那邊那些人都比你聰明，他們更有才華，他們更高大、皮膚更白、更漂亮、更幸運，并且認識各種各樣的人?”

你可千萬別理會。

我堅信只要選擇一條你感興趣的路，不排除愛情、敏銳以及與別人的合作，而是堅定地認為，通過你自身的努力能夠感動他人，不把成功或者失敗作為你生活的標準，那么你就可能成為值得自己敬佩的人。

三、FAITH

Napolean Hill

Faith is the “eternal elixir”

Which gives life, power, and action to the impulse of thought!

Faith is the starting point of all accumulation of riches!

Faith is the basis of all “miracles”，And all mysteries which cannot be analyzed by the rules of scienc

e!

Faith is the only known antidote for failure!

Faith is the element, the “chemical” which，When mixed with prayer, gives one direct communication with Infin

ite Intelligence.Faith is the element which transforms the ordinary vibration of thought, created by the finite mind of man, into the spiritual equival

ent.Faith is the only agency through which

the cosmic force of Infinite

Intelligence can be harnessed and used by man.信念

拿破侖*希爾

信念是“永恒的萬應靈藥”，它賦予突發奇想以生命、力量和行動！

信念是所有財富積累的起點！

信念是一切“奇跡”

以及所有科學法則無法分析的奧秘的根基！

信念是惟一已知失敗之解藥！

信念是重要元素、“化學物質”，一旦與祈禱結合便會使你與上帝直接溝通。

人類的智慧固然有限，普通的靈感閃現一經信念指點，便會轉換成精神震撼。

信念是惟一的中介，通過它

上帝的宇宙力會成為人類開發和利用的資源。

四、ON CHANGES

Irene Dunlap

Change is the only absolute

in the world，the only thing

that you can depend on.Nothing stays the same.Tomorrow will come，bringing with it

new beginnings and sometimes

unexpected endings.You can hold on to the past

and get left in the dust;

or, you can choose to

jump on the ride of life

and live a new adventure

with perseverance

and an open mind.論變化

艾琳*鄧萊普

變化是世界上

惟一絕對的東西，是惟一

你能相信的事情。

沒有什么能一成不變，明天將來臨，它會帶來

新的開始，并且有時

還會帶來意想不到的結局。

你可以抓住過去，蒙受遺棄；

或者，你可以選擇

躍上生命之車

進行一次新的冒險，憑借堅持不懈

和廣闊的胸懷。

五、RESULTS AND ROSES

Edgar Albert Guest

The man who wants a garden fair，Or small or very big，With flowers growing here and there，Must bend his back and dig.The things are mighty few on earth，That wishes can attain，Whatever we want of any worth，We ve got to work to gain.It matters not what goal you seek，Its secret here reposes:

You ve got to dig from week to week，To get results or roses.碩果和玫瑰

埃德加*阿爾貝特*格斯特

要想有個美麗花園，面積大小姑且不管，只要園中長滿鮮花，就必須把汗水揮灑。

有愿望就能實現，這樣的事還真是少見，只要想要的東西有價值，就得靠努力去創造。

目標是什么并不重要，秘訣終歸只有一條：

周復一周不怕勞累，才能收獲碩果或者玫瑰
