Title: The Power of Resilience
Good morning everyone,
Today, I am here to talk about the power of resilience and how it can transform our lives. Resilience is the ability to bounce back from setbacks, to keep going despite obstacles and challenges. It is what separates those who succeed from those who give up.
Life is full of ups and downs. We all face difficulties and setbacks at some point. It's easy to feel defeated and discouraged when things don't go as planned. However, it is during these tough times that resilience becomes crucial.
Resilience is not about never experiencing failure or disappointment. It's about how we respond to these setbacks. Resilient individuals view failure as a learning opportunity. They see challenges as a chance to grow and improve. Instead of dwelling on their mistakes, they focus on finding solutions and moving forward.
One great example of resilience is the story of Thomas Edison. He failed thousands of times before successfully inventing the light bulb. When asked about his failures, he famously said, "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work." Edison's perseverance and unwavering belief in his abilities allowed him to achieve great success.
Resilience is not only important in achieving career success, but also in maintaining good mental health. Life can be overwhelming and stressful at times. It's easy to feel overwhelmed and give in to negative emotions. However, resilient individuals have the ability to adapt and cope with stress. They have a positive outlook and are able to find joy and gratitude in the little things.
So, how can we cultivate resilience in our own lives? Firstly, we need to develop a growth mindset. Embrace challenges and see them as opportunities for growth. Secondly, surround yourself with a supportive network of friends and family who can provide encouragement and advice during tough times. Lastly, take care of your physical and mental well-being. Exercise regularly, practice mindfulness, and engage in activities that bring you joy and relaxation.
In conclusion, resilience is a powerful trait that can transform our lives. It allows us to overcome setbacks, learn from failures, and achieve success. By cultivating resilience, we can navigate through life's challenges with grace and perseverance. Remember, setbacks are not the end of the road, but merely a detour on the path to success. Thank you.

Title: Embracing Failure: The Key to Success
Good afternoon everyone,
Today, I want to talk about a topic that often brings fear and discomfort: failure. We are conditioned to fear failure and view it as something negative. However, I believe that failure is not the opposite of success, but rather a stepping stone towards it.
Failure is an essential part of the learning process. It allows us to grow, improve, and eventually succeed. Many great inventions and discoveries came as a result of countless failures. Take the example of Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple. He was fired from his own company and experienced numerous setbacks throughout his career. However, it was his ability to learn from these failures and persevere that ultimately led to his success.
Failure should not be seen as a personal reflection of one's abilities or worth. Instead, it should be viewed as an opportunity for growth. When we fail, we have the chance to reflect on our mistakes, learn from them, and come back stronger.
One of the biggest obstacles to embracing failure is the fear of judgment from others. We are afraid of what people will think if we fail. However, we need to remember that everyone fails at some point in their lives. It is a natural part of the human experience. The most successful individuals are those who are not afraid to take risks and embrace failure.
In order to embrace failure, we need to shift our mindset. Instead of viewing failure as a negative outcome, we should see it as a valuable experience. We should celebrate our efforts and the lessons learned along the way. Failure is not the end of the road, but rather a detour on the path to success.
In conclusion, failure is not something to be feared, but rather something to be embraced. It is through failure that we learn, grow, and ultimately succeed. We should not let the fear of failure hold us back from taking risks and pursuing our dreams. So, let us embrace failure and use it as a stepping stone towards our own success. Thank you.

In this talk, I will share with you stories of individuals who have embraced failure as a stepping stone to success, and how we can learn from their experiences to overcome our own fear of failure and achieve greatness.
Body:
1. The story of Steve Jobs:
Steve Jobs, the co-founder of Apple, was known for his revolutionary products and innovative ideas. However, before his success, Jobs faced many failures. He was fired from Apple, the company he co-founded, and experienced setbacks in his other ventures. It was through these failures that Jobs learned valuable lessons and developed the resilience to bounce back. His story teaches us that failure is not the end, but rather an opportunity to learn and grow.

Considered one of the greatest basketball players of all time, Michael Jordan faced numerous failures throughout his career. He was cut from his high school basketball team, and even in the NBA, he faced many defeats. However, Jordan never let these setbacks define him. He used his failures as motivation to work harder and become better. His story reminds us that failure is not a reflection of our abilities but a stepping stone towards success.
3. The story of Oprah Winfrey:

She was fired from her first job as a television reporter and faced rejection from multiple networks. However, Winfrey did not let these failures deter her.

Her story shows us that failure is not the end of the road but an opportunity to create our own path.

Title: The Importance of Taking Risks: Embracing Change and Unlocking Growth
Introduction:
Hello everyone! Today, I want to talk about the importance of taking risks and how it can lead to personal and professional growth. Life is full of opportunities, but often, they come disguised as risks. By embracing change and stepping out of our comfort zones, we can unlock our true potential and achieve remarkable success. Let's explore why taking risks is vital for our journey towards greatness.
Body:
1. Overcoming Fear:
Fear is one of the biggest obstacles that hold us back from taking risks. We fear failure, rejection, and the unknown. However, it is essential to remember that fear is a natural response to stepping into the unknown. Instead of letting fear paralyze us, we should acknowledge it and move forward anyway. Embrace the discomfort and recognize that growth lies on the other side of fear.
2. Expanding Our Comfort Zones:
Staying within our comfort zones may feel safe, but it also limits our potential. By taking risks, we challenge ourselves to grow and expand our comfort zones. Every time we step outside of what is familiar, we learn something new about ourselves and our capabilities. It is through these experiences that we gain confidence and discover our true potential.
3. Seizing Opportunities:
Opportunities rarely come knocking on our doors. More often than not, we have to go out and find them. Taking risks allows us to seize opportunities that can change our lives for the better. Whether it's starting a new business, pursuing a passion, or taking on a challenging project, it is through taking risks that we open ourselves up to a world of possibilities.
4. Learning from Failure:
Failure is an inevitable part of taking risks, but it is also a valuable teacher. When we take risks, we expose ourselves to the possibility of failure. However, it is through failure that we learn valuable lessons and gain insights that can guide us towards future success. Embrace failure as a stepping stone towards growth and use it to fuel your determination.
5. Building Resilience:
Taking risks requires resilience. It is the ability to bounce back from failure, adapt to change, and keep moving forward. By taking risks, we build resilience and develop the mindset necessary to navigate through life's challenges. Each risk we take strengthens our ability to handle setbacks and empowers us to overcome obstacles with confidence.
Conclusion:
In conclusion, taking risks is essential for personal and professional growth. By overcoming fear, expanding our comfort zones, seizing opportunities, learning from failure, and building resilience, we can unlock our true potential and achieve extraordinary success. Remember, life is too short to play it safe. Take that leap of faith, embrace change, and watch as your life transforms in ways you never thought possible. Thank you.

Dear:
Imagine a big explosion as you climb through 3,000 ft. Imagine a plane full of smoke. Imagine an engine going clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack, clack. It sounds scary.
想像一个大爆炸,当你在三千多英尺的高空;想像机舱内布满黑烟,想像引擎发出喀啦、喀啦、喀啦、喀啦、喀啦的声响,听起来很可怕。
Well I had a unique seat that day. I was sitting in 1D. I was the only one who can talk to the flight attendants. So I looked at them right away, and they said, "No problem. We probably hit some birds." The pilot had already turned the plane around, and we werent that far. You could see Manhattan.
那天我的位置很特別,我坐在1D,我是唯一可以和空服员说话的人,于是我立刻看着他们,他们说,“没问题,我们可能撞上鸟了。” 机长已经把机头转向,我们离目的地很近,已经可以看到曼哈顿了。
Two minutes later, 3 things happened at the same time. The pilot lines up the plane with the Hudson River. Thats usually not the route. He turns off the engines. Now imagine being in a plane with no sound. And then he says 3 words-the most unemotional 3 words Ive ever heard. He says, "Brace for impact."
两分钟以后,三件事情同时发生:机长把飞机对齐哈德逊河,一般的航道可不是这样。他关上引擎。想像坐在一架没有声音的飞机上。然后他说了几个字,我听过最不带情绪的几个字,他说,“即将迫降,小心冲击。”
I didnt have to talk to the flight attendant anymore. I could see in her eyes, it was terror. Life was over.
我不用再问空服员什么了。我可以在她眼神里看到恐惧,人生结束了。
Now I want to share with you 3 things I learned about myself that day.
现在我想和你们分享那天我所学到的.三件事。
I leant that it all changes in an instant. We have this bucket list, we have these things we want to do in life, and I thought about all the people I wanted to reach out to that I didnt, all the fences I wanted to mend, all the experiences I wanted to have and I never did. As I thought about that later on, I came up with a saying, which is, "collect bad wines". Because if the wine is ready and the person is there, Im opening it. I no longer want to postpone anything in life. And that urgency, that purpose, has really changed my life.
在那一瞬间内,一切都改变了。我们的人生目标清单,那些我们想做的事,所有那些我想联络却没有联络的人,那些我想修补的围墙,人际关系,所有我想经历却没有经历的事。之后我回想那些事,我想到一句话,那就是,“我收藏的酒都很差。” 因为如果酒已成熟,分享对象也有,我早就把把酒打开了。我不想再把生命中的任何事延后,这种紧迫感、目标性改变了我的生命。
The second thing I learnt that day - and this is as we clear the George Washington bridge, which was by not a lot - I thought about, wow, I really feel one real regret, Ive lived a good life. In my own humanity and mistaked, Ive tired to get better at everything I tried. But in my humanity, I also allow my ego to get in. And I regretted the time I wasted
on things that did not matter with people that matter. And I thought about my relationship with my wife, my friends, with people. And after, as I reflected on that, I decided to eliminate negative energy from my life. Its not perfect, but its a lot better. Ive not had a fight with my wife in 2 years. It feels great. I no longer try to be right; I choose to be happy.
那天我学到的第二件事是,正当我们通过乔治华盛顿大桥,那也没过多久,我想,哇,我有一件真正后悔的事。虽然我有人性缺点,也犯了些错,但我生活得其实不错。我试着把每件事做得更好。但因为人性,我难免有些自我中心,我后悔竟然花了许多时间,和生命中重要的人讨论那些不重要的事。我想到我和妻子、朋友及人们的关系,之后,回想这件事时,我决定除掉我人生中的负面情绪。还没完全做到,但确实好多了。过去两年我从未和妻子吵架,感觉很好,我不再尝试争论对错,我选择快乐。
The third thing I learned - and thiss as you mental clock starts going, "15, 14, 13." You can see the water coming. Im saying, "Please blow up." I dont want this thing to break in 20 pieces like youve seen in those documentaries. And as were coming down, I had a sense of, wow, dying is not scary. Its almost like weve been preparing for it our whole lives .But it was very sad. I didnt want to go. I love my life. And that sadness really framed in one thought, which is, I only wish for one thing. I only wish I could see my kids grow up.
我所学到的第三件事是,当你脑中的始终开始倒数“15,14,13”,看到水开始涌入,心想,“拜托爆炸吧!” 我不希望这东西碎成20片,就像纪录片中看到的那样。当我们逐渐下沉,我突然感觉到,哇,死亡并不可怕,就像是我们一生一直在为此做准备,但很令人悲伤。我不想就这样离开,我热爱我的生命。这个悲伤的主要来源是,我只期待一件事,我只希望能看到孩子长大。
About a month later, I was at a performance by my daugter - first-grade, not much artistic talent... yet. And I m balling, Im crying, like a little kid. And it made all the sense in the world to me. I realized at that point by connecting those two dots, that the only thing that matters in my life is being a great dad. Above all, above all, the only goal I have in life is to be a good dad.
一个月后,我参加女儿的表演,她一年级,没什么艺术天份,就算如此。我泪流满面,像个孩子,这让我的世界重新有了意义。当当时我意识到,将这两件事连接起来,其实我生命中唯一重要的事,就是成为一个好父亲,比任何事都重要,比任何事都重要,我人生中唯一的目标就是做个好父亲。
I was given the gift of a miracle, of not dying that day. I was given another gift, which was to be able to see into the future and come back and live differently.
那天我经历了一个奇迹,我活下來了。我还得到另一个启示,像是看见自己的未来再回來,改变自己的人生。
I challenge you guys that are flying today, imagine the same thing happens on your plane - and please dont - but imagine, and how would you change? What would you get done that youre waiting to get done because you think youll be here forever? How would you change your relationtships and the negative energy in them? And more than anything, are you being the best parent you can?
我鼓励今天要坐飞机的各位,想像如果你坐的飞机出了同样的事,最好不要,但想像一下,你会如何改变?有什么是你想做却没做的,因为你觉得你有其它机会做它?你会如何改变你的人际关系,不再如此负面?最重要的是,你是否尽力成为一个好父母?
Thank you.
谢谢。

Dear:
In 1904, after the "World Expo" was held in Saint Louis, USA. The real star of World Expo is selected. It is not a product provided by any exhibitors, but a food sold by a small peddler at World Expo gate. How does this happen?
It turned out that a peddler called Hamwi sold sweet crisp pancakes outside the meeting. One next to him is a peddler for ice cream. In summer, the ice cream sold very quickly, while ice cream dish is not enough. Enthusiastic Omar hamoui then put their own crisp Griddle Cake into a cone, next to the ice cream dishes used as hawker.
Unexpectedly, ice cream and crisp pancakes were combined, and they were unexpectedly welcome, and people were scrambling to buy it. After the meeting, it was also chosen by the public as "the real world expo star product", which is known today as the egg ice-cream.
