双语：拥有远大梦想

Dream Big Dreams
By Howard Schultz（霍华德·舒尔茨）
I feel so strongly that the reason I'm here is I dreamed big dreams.
我强烈认为我来这里的原因是我拥有远大的梦想。
I dreamed the kind of dreams that other people said would not be possible.
我的梦想是别人都认为不可能实现的梦想。
I'm also living proof. This isn't a Hollywood movie. I come literally from the other side of the tracks.
我就是一个活生生的例子。这一切不是好莱坞电影。我真的是个出身贫寒的人。
If you saw where I grew up and we took a picture of it, the neighborhood, the setting, you'd say it's not, it's impossible that someone could come from there and get here, but it is possible.
如果你看到我成长的地方，或我们拍一张照片，那的邻居，那的环境，你会说不是这样，不可能有人能从那来到这，但的确有可能。
If you dream big and surround yourself with great people, and leave your ego at the door, and share success with others, and have a little luck along the way, you can do anything.
如果你拥有远大的梦想，多与优秀的人接触，抛开自尊，谦虚学习，与他人分享成功经验，成长路上再拥有一点好运，你就可以成就一切。
But there will be people along the way who will say to you, "You know, you're dreaming too big. It's not possible. Those things just can't happen."
但成长路上总会有人对你说：“你知道，你的梦想太不切实际了。你不可能实现。这些事情不可能发生。”
Don't allow anyone, friend, family, acquaintances, teachers, whoever it is, to tell you that what you are dreaming for yourself and your family is not possible. It is possible.
请你不要让任何人，无论是朋友、家人、熟人，还是老师，不要让任何人评判你，认为你因自己和家庭拥有的梦想不可能实现。梦想都可能实现。
Don't be one of those people twenty years from now, are going to be walking around in nine to five job, miserable and angry and bitter, because you live your dreams get away from you because he did not believe strong enough in yourself and what was possible.
有些人放弃了梦想，信念不够坚定，不相信自己能实现梦想。而在20年之后，他们仍然在做一份朝九晚五的工作，可怜兮兮，心中满是愤怒和痛苦，不要成为这样的人。
Don't allow that to happen. This is an unbelievable time.
不要让这种事发生。我们这个时代，是一个美好的时代。
And I can't encourage you enough to continue to think that things are possible and that your dreams can come true.
我要鼓励你继续相信，一切皆有可能，你可以实现你的梦想。
