【正文】 t believe it!You39。s where I met my best friend, Gayle, who was an intern at the same TV once we became friends, we39。它那時(shí)對(duì)我來(lái)說(shuō)它仿佛是世界上最重要的事。clock news coanchor job at 22 was such a big felt like the biggest deal in the world at the ，在Baltimore我得到了一個(gè)共同主持6 點(diǎn)新聞的機(jī)會(huì)。A year after I left college, I was given the opportunity to coanchor the 6 o39。因此這里只有三個(gè)經(jīng)驗(yàn)我想和大家分享。你們難道不覺得高興嗎？你們是否會(huì)反感，當(dāng)有人 對(duì)你說(shuō)：“我想分享一些”但事實(shí)上卻是10 個(gè)經(jīng)驗(yàn)。re like, ”Listen, this is my is not about you.“ So, it39。m going to share a few,“ and it39。t you glad? Don39。So, today, I just want to share a few lessons—meaning three—that I39。相信我，內(nèi)在的智慧比外在的財(cái)富更加珍貴。我堅(jiān)信你們會(huì)從每一件做過(guò)的事上學(xué)到經(jīng)驗(yàn)，這樣你們就會(huì)取得進(jìn)步。s a lesson in almost everything that you do and every experience, and getting the lesson is how you move 39。” And that is really what we39。她對(duì)我說(shuō)：“你知道嗎？你一點(diǎn)也沒(méi)有變。ve just bee more of yourself.“ 我記得我所受到的最大的贊揚(yáng)就是當(dāng)我剛剛在芝加1 哥開始工作時(shí)，我采訪了一個(gè)記者。ve ever received: I interviewed with a reporter when I was first starting out in then many years later, I saw the same she said to me, ”You know what? You really haven39。不斷自我提高，去追求人 生的更高境界，去追求更高級(jí)別的憐憫和自我提高。s really why we39。s being able to walk through life eager and open to selfimprovement and that which is going to best help you evolve, 39。我所學(xué)的應(yīng)付這一切的秘密就是去勇于面 對(duì)，正如我們面對(duì)大學(xué)課程一樣。有時(shí)這些課程會(huì)是彎路和障礙。ve learned to getting ahead is being open to the lessons, lessons from the grandest university of all, that is, the universe 。在很多情況下，這才是剛剛開使。t ending many ways, it39。我的爸爸非常的驕傲。可我告訴他們，我不能去演講除非我得到那一個(gè)學(xué)分，因?yàn)槲野职挚?是說(shuō)沒(méi)了那學(xué)位我將一事無(wú)成。在那時(shí)，我已經(jīng)有了自 己的電視節(jié)目，并加入了國(guó)家聯(lián)合會(huì)。s still saying I39?！?So, in 1987, Tennessee State University invited me back to speak at their then, I had my own show, was nationally 39?！蔽艺f(shuō)：“但是，爸爸，現(xiàn)在我已經(jīng)是脫口秀的主持人了”。t know how you39。m a talk show host.“ He39。re going to do without that degree.” And I39。d say, “Well, I still don39?！比缓笪艺f(shuō)：“但是，爸爸，我已經(jīng)有我自己的電視節(jié)目啦。但是我的父親從那時(shí)起卻成了問(wèn)題。我在走我自己的路。11 點(diǎn)之前到家。re gonna do without that degree.” And I39。s my middle name—“I don39。m going to let this college thing go and I only had one credit , my father, from that time on and for years after, was always on my case, because I did not 39。Seriously, my dad was like, “Well, that news is over at 10: home by 11.” But that didn39。我在19 歲還是大學(xué)二 年級(jí)的時(shí)候就已經(jīng)上了電視。你們知道，我不會(huì)比得上我的同班同學(xué)。但是我本來(lái)不會(huì)拿到我 的畢業(yè)證，因?yàn)槲冶緫?yīng)該在1975 年畢業(yè)，但是我少了一個(gè)學(xué)分。因?yàn)檫@是真的，我知道根本不會(huì)拿到我 的學(xué)位，因?yàn)槲覜](méi)有去斯坦福念書。clock curfew doing the 10 o39。m not going to march with my by that point, I was already on 39。m just going to forget it, 39。cause I didn39。我對(duì)Kirby大學(xué)四 年真的沒(méi)有什么幫助。s asked me in the past couple of weeks what I was doing, I would say, “I39。我可以叫她Cakes。我為Kirby感到自豪，因?yàn)樗@得了人類生物學(xué)和心理學(xué)的雙學(xué) 位。因此我不僅僅只是有點(diǎn)認(rèn)識(shí)Kirby Bumpus。我還有照片為證。s how well I know can call her ：“有一點(diǎn)。d rather be, because I39。m so happy to be here, just happy that I finally, after four years, get to see her 39?！盞irby說(shuō)：“有點(diǎn)吧。s my mom.”And so the person says, “Ohmigod, does it mean, like, you know OprahWinfrey?”And Kirby says, “Sort of.” 有些人走到Kirby面前，對(duì)Kirby說(shuō)：“我的天啊，那是Gayle King嗎？”Kirby說(shuō)：“嗯，她 是我媽媽。And so somebody es up to Kirby, and they say, “Ohmigod, is that Gayle King?” And Kirby39。他們說(shuō)：“我的天 啊，那是Gayle King”。因此她從來(lái)不希望每一個(gè)第一次見到她的人知道她認(rèn)識(shí)我。s Gayle King!” Because a lot of people know Gayle King as my BFF [best friend forever].正如你們知道的那樣Kirby是一個(gè)非常聰明的女孩。s a very smart wants people to get to know her on her own terms, she in terms of who she , she never wants anyone who39。所以當(dāng)Hennessy校長(zhǎng)讓我來(lái)做演講時(shí)，我受寵若驚，因 為自從Kirby來(lái)這上學(xué)以來(lái)，這是我第一次被允許到斯坦福來(lái)。s been 。08, is my , I was thrilled when President Hennessy asked me to be your Commencement speaker, because this is the first time I39。感謝你們讓我 和你們分享這美好的一天。我始終熱愛自己的脫口秀節(jié)目，但真正令我感到幸福的，是我不只在電視機(jī)鏡頭前工作，還能夠借著節(jié)目行善。因此，不論你在哪個(gè)領(lǐng)域，就讓你的工作成為一種回饋吧。當(dāng)你陷入一團(tuán)糟，惟一走出迷霧的辦法，就是帶別人走出迷霧。當(dāng)你受傷，就去撫慰受傷的人。想要得到真正的快樂(lè)，除了活在當(dāng)下，你還得為一個(gè)比自己更大的意義而活?！蹦愕没钤诋?dāng)下，因?yàn)椴徽撨^(guò)去有多少歡樂(lè)，現(xiàn)在都用不上。這也是我今天要說(shuō)的最后一課，如何尋找幸福?這聽起來(lái)是一個(gè)廣泛的大題目，但是有一個(gè)再簡(jiǎn)單不過(guò)的方法。大家知道我在非洲為一貧如洗的女孩們辦學(xué)校。沒(méi)有任何人一生風(fēng)平浪靜，每一次危機(jī)、每一個(gè)困境、每一度失意，我都會(huì)問(wèn)自己：“你學(xué)到什么?”只要你從摔跤中學(xué)到教訓(xùn)，就站起來(lái)，拍拍灰塵，繼續(xù)走下去。當(dāng)你的身邊充滿了你信任、珍惜的人，而他們也同樣珍惜你，這才是真正的財(cái)富。但有很多錢并不表示你成功了。另外，我必須重新定義“成功”。這不僅會(huì)改善你的生活，也會(huì)讓你的職場(chǎng)工作增加競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力。我做的每個(gè)對(duì)的決定，都來(lái)自內(nèi)心的感覺。感覺，就像你生命中的GpS導(dǎo)航器，會(huì)引導(dǎo)你做或不做。做你覺得有意義的事，不論領(lǐng)多少錢，每天的工作都像是一種賞賜。我發(fā)現(xiàn)電視不只是娛樂(lè)，也能幫助人。8個(gè)月后，我被新聞臺(tái)開除了，但受制于我們簽的合約，他們把我轉(zhuǎn)去主持一個(gè)談話節(jié)目。但直覺告訴我，我必須為這些人做點(diǎn)什么。但讓我更難捱的，是成天播報(bào)那些意外事件的悲慘新聞。的確，我跟傳統(tǒng)的主播美女長(zhǎng)得真不像。我越想越不對(duì)，心想，不管好記不好記，那終究是我的名字。因?yàn)橐婚_始我的“感覺”就不對(duì)。很高興美夢(mèng)沒(méi)成真大學(xué)退學(xué)一年后，巴爾的摩(美國(guó)大西洋沿岸重要的海港城市)地方電視臺(tái)讓我播報(bào)晨間新聞，對(duì)當(dāng)時(shí)22歲的我來(lái)說(shuō)，得意極了，心想終于可以照著自己的夢(mèng)想，成為一個(gè)知名的美女主播。我的秘訣是，毫不遲疑地打開試卷，用真正的我去面對(duì)，從中學(xué)到自我改進(jìn)，追求更深層次的理解、被理解與成長(zhǎng)。事實(shí)上，我連田納西州立大學(xué)都沒(méi)有畢業(yè)。t pull that off!Congratulations, 39。s A Whole New Mind: Why RightBrainers Will Rule the Future has reassured me I39。ll find two of my favorite Tolle39。cause I know great things are sure to know, I39。s up to you to decide, really, where will you now use those gifts?
