Congratulations everyone, you made it.
祝賀大家，你們做到了。
And I don’t mean to the end of college, I mean to class day, because if memory serves,some of your classmates had too many scorpion bowls at the Hong Kong last night and are with us today.
我指的不是大學(xué)畢業(yè)，而是成功出席今天的畢業(yè)典禮。如果我沒記錯(cuò)，某些同學(xué)雖然昨晚在香港餐廳喝了太多scorpion bowls（一種雞尾酒），但今天還是來(lái)了。
Congratulations to your parents.You have spent a lot of money, so your child can say she went to a “small school” near Boston. And thank you to the class of 2014 for inviting me to the part of your celebration. It means a great to me. And looking at the list of past speakers was a little daunting.I can’t be as funny as Amy Poehler, but I’m gonna be funnier than Mother Teresa.
祝賀你們的家長(zhǎng)，你們花了很多錢，讓子女能夠說(shuō)自己是從波士頓附近的這所“小學(xué)?！爱厴I(yè)的。還要感謝2014屆畢業(yè)生邀請(qǐng)我來(lái)到這次盛典。這對(duì)我價(jià)值巨大?？吹竭^(guò)往演講者的名單讓人有些敬畏。我肯定沒有艾米·波樂那么搞笑，但我至少比特雷薩修女更幽默。
When I sat in your seat all those years ago, I knew exactly where I was headed, I had it all planned out, I was going to the world bank to work on global poverty. Then I would go to law school. And I would spend my life working in a nonprofit or in a government. At Harvard’s commencement tomorrow as your dean described, each school is gonna stand up and graduate together, the college, the law school, the med school and so on. At my graduation, my class cheered for the PHD students and then booed the business school. Business school seemed like such a sell out.18 months later, I applied to business school.
我畢業(yè)那年，我想好了自己以后有什么計(jì)劃，我要進(jìn)世界銀行，對(duì)抗全球貧窮，然后我要去法學(xué)院，然后我將在非營(yíng)利機(jī)構(gòu)或政府工作，你們?cè)洪L(zhǎng)也講了，在明天的哈佛畢業(yè)典禮上，每個(gè)學(xué)院都要起立并一同畢業(yè)，本科部、法學(xué)院、醫(yī)學(xué)院等等。我畢業(yè)時(shí)，我們班為博士生歡呼，然后噓了商學(xué)院，商學(xué)院似乎很不受歡迎。18個(gè)月后，我就申請(qǐng)了商學(xué)院。
It wasn’t wrong about what I would do decades after graduating.I had it wrong a year and a half later. And even if I could have predicted I would one day work in the private sector, I never could have predicted Facebook, because there was no internet, and Mark Zuckerberg was at elementary school,already wearing his hoody. Not locking into a path too early, give me an opportunity to go into a new and life changing field. And for those of you who think I owe everything to good luck, after Canaday I got Quaded.
我對(duì)自己畢業(yè)后的數(shù)十年規(guī)劃其實(shí)并沒錯(cuò)，計(jì)劃只錯(cuò)在了一年后，就算我算到了自己會(huì)在私營(yíng)企業(yè)工作，我肯定算不到自己會(huì)在臉譜，那時(shí)候沒有互聯(lián)網(wǎng)。那時(shí)候馬克·扎克伯格還在讀小學(xué)，已經(jīng)開始穿他的標(biāo)志性帽衫了。沒有太早鎖死自己的道路，讓我有機(jī)會(huì)進(jìn)入改變生活的全新領(lǐng)域。有些人可能認(rèn)為我運(yùn)氣好，我想說(shuō)，卡納迪樓后，我又被安排到了方院。
There is no straight path from your seat today to where you are going. Don’t try to draw that line. You will not just get it wrong. You will miss big opportunities and I mean big ,like the internet.
從你們所坐的地方倒你們要去的地方是沒有直路的，不要嘗試畫這樣的直線，這不僅會(huì)出錯(cuò)，還會(huì)錯(cuò)失大機(jī)遇，我說(shuō)的是大機(jī)遇，例如像互聯(lián)網(wǎng)這樣。
Careers are not ladders. Those days are long gone, but jungle gyms. Don’t just move up and down. Don’t just look up. Look backwards, side ways, around corners.Your career and your life will have starts and stops and zigs and zags. Don’t stress out about the white space, the path you can try, because there in lives both the surprises and the opportunities. As you open yourself up to possibility, the most important thing I can tell you today is to open yourself up to honesty, to telling the truth to each other, to be honesty to yourselves,and to be honest about the world we live in.
職業(yè)不是梯子，那種時(shí)代一去不返了，職業(yè)更像是立體方格鐵架，不要只上下移動(dòng)，不要只往上看，還要往回看，往旁邊看，看轉(zhuǎn)角周圍。你的職業(yè)和生活會(huì)有始終，會(huì)有曲折，不要對(duì)未來(lái)的道路太過(guò)憂慮，因?yàn)樯钪谐錆M了驚喜和機(jī)遇，你需要對(duì)各種可能性持開放態(tài)度。今天我要講的最重要的一點(diǎn)就是，對(duì)誠(chéng)實(shí)保持開放的態(tài)度。相互之間，說(shuō)老實(shí)話，對(duì)自己誠(chéng)實(shí)，也對(duì)我們所生活的世界誠(chéng)實(shí)。
Asking for feedback is a really important habit to get into, as you leave the structure of the school calendar and exams and grades behind. On many jobs if you want to know how you’re doing, if you’re going to have to ask and then you’re gonna have to listen without getting defensive. Take it from me, listening to criticism is never fun, but it’s the only way we can improve.
養(yǎng)成尋求反饋的習(xí)慣非常重要，特別是在離開學(xué)校系統(tǒng)，沒了考試和分?jǐn)?shù)之后。很多工作中，如果你想知道自己干得怎么樣，你就需要去詢問(wèn)，而且不要因?yàn)槁牭讲幌矚g聽的而覺得受到冒犯。毫無(wú)疑問(wèn)，聽人批評(píng)絕對(duì)不會(huì)讓人高興，但我們只能在批評(píng)中進(jìn)步。
So often the truth is sacrificed to conflict avoidance,or by the time we speak the truth ,we’ve used so many caveats and preambles that the message totally gets lost. So I ask you to ask each other for the truth and other people: can you list it in simple and clear language? And when you speak your truth, can you use simple and clear language?
通常，真相都成了避免沖突的犧牲品。我們?cè)谥v真相時(shí)，總喜歡使用很多修飾，很多委婉語(yǔ)，淹沒了真正要傳達(dá)的信息。我希望你們?cè)谙蛩嗽儐?wèn)真相的時(shí)候，能用簡(jiǎn)單明了的語(yǔ)言相互交流。講到自己的真相時(shí)，也應(yīng)使用簡(jiǎn)單明了的語(yǔ)言。
You can challenge stereotypes that's subtleand obvious. At Facebook, we have posters around the wall to inspire us, Done isbetter than perfect, Fortune favors the bold. What would you do if you weren't afraid? My new favorite thing at Facebook is someone else's problem.I hope you feel that way about the problems you see in the world,because they are not someone else's problem. Gender inequality harms men along with women. Racism hurts Whites along with Minorities. And the lack of equal opportunity keeps all of us from failing our true potential.
你們可以挑戰(zhàn)老一套的做法，在臉譜我們會(huì)貼海報(bào)激勵(lì)自己，完成重于完美，財(cái)富偏愛勇敢者，不要害怕，勇往直前。我最近又喜歡上一條，在臉譜沒有別人的問(wèn)題。我希望你們也能這樣看問(wèn)題，問(wèn)題沒有別人的問(wèn)題。性別不平等對(duì)男性和女性都沒有好處，種族主義對(duì)白人和少數(shù)族裔都是傷害，缺乏平等機(jī)會(huì)，讓我們所有人無(wú)法發(fā)揮自己的真正潛能。
So as you graduate today, I want to put some pressure on you to acknowledge the hard truths, not shy away from them,and when you see them to address them.
在你們畢業(yè)的今天，我希望給你們一些壓力，讓你認(rèn)識(shí)到，真相雖然有時(shí)難以接受，但很重要。不要逃避，碰到就要勇于面對(duì)。
At the same time, I want to take some pressure off you, Sitting here today you don't have to know what career you want or how to get the career you might want. Leaning in does not mean your path will be straight or smooth and most people who make great contribution start way later than Mark Zuckerberg. Find a jungle gym you want to play and start climbing,not only will you figure out what you want to do eventually,but once you do, you'll crush it.
同時(shí)，我也希望給你們減輕一些壓力。今天坐在這里的你們，不需要知道自己該如何走上正確的人生道路。“向前一步”并不意味著你的前路將一帆風(fēng)順。很多人對(duì)世界的重大貢獻(xiàn)都遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)晚于馬克·扎克伯格。找到你想爬的立體方格鐵架，并開始攀爬。你最終會(huì)找到你想做的事情，并最終獲得成功。
Tomorrow, you all become part of a life long community, which offers truly great opportunity, and therefore comes with real obligation. You can make the world fair for everyone, expect honesty from yourself and each other, demand and create truly equal opportunity, not eventually, but now. And tomorrow by the way, you get something Mark Zuckerbergdoes not have, a Harvard degree. Congratulations, everyone!
明天，你們都將步入社會(huì)，這是一生的旅途，途中會(huì)碰到很好的機(jī)遇，也會(huì)有很重大的責(zé)任，你們能夠讓世界對(duì)于每個(gè)人更加公平。對(duì)自己和他人，你們需要坦誠(chéng)相待，要求并創(chuàng)造真正平等的機(jī)會(huì)。不是最終，而是現(xiàn)在。順便說(shuō)下，明天你們將獲得馬克·扎克伯格所沒有的東西，一份哈佛學(xué)位。祝賀每一位畢業(yè)生！
