我心想:。我壓力超大近乎崩潰,老實(shí)說,我感到羞愧。我還記得有一天我打開《今日美國報(bào)》時(shí)看到頭條新聞?wù)f“ 奧普拉搞不定?自己的?電視網(wǎng)”。溫福瑞電視網(wǎng)推出一年后,幾乎所有的媒體都認(rèn)為我的新項(xiàng)目是失敗的。溫福瑞電視網(wǎng)”,縮寫正好是“OWN(自己的)”。但是幾年前,我覺得,在人生的某一時(shí)刻,你必須重新來過,找到新的領(lǐng)域,實(shí)現(xiàn)新的突破。對大家來說聽著挺熟悉吧?最終,我們成功達(dá)到巔峰,并在那里待了25年。在1986年,我推出了我自己的電視節(jié)目,一開始就下定決心要成功。”當(dāng)我說出這些話時(shí),我覺得:“哇!還挺不錯(cuò)的!我想做個(gè)記者,我要做出一番事業(yè)。因?yàn)槟翘煸缟衔艺迷凇敖袢招恪敝锌吹搅税虐爬谖覅⒓颖荣惸悄曛?,想贏的話你必須得是紅頭發(fā)女孩。正如你們早上聽到的,我當(dāng)時(shí)在參加“防火小姐”比賽。雖然我沒有從哈佛畢業(yè),但我認(rèn)為我的性格和哈佛的畢業(yè)生是一樣。說實(shí)話,在過去的幾個(gè)星期我感到很大的壓力,因?yàn)槲蚁胍銈兎窒硪恍┠銈儚臎]聽到過的東西,畢竟你們都上了哈佛,而我沒有。Actually I was so honored I wanted to do something really special for wanted to be able to have you look under your seats and there would be free master and doctor degrees but I see you got that covered will be honest with felt a lot of pressure over the past few weeks to e up with something that I could share with you that you hadn?t heard before because after all you all went to Harvard, I did then I realized that you don?t have to necessarily go to Harvard to have a driven obsessive Type A it while I may not have graduated from here I admit that my personality is about as Harvard as they know my television career began you heard this morning I was in the Miss Fire Prevention was when I was 16 years old in Nashville, Tennessee, and you had the requirement of having to have red hair in order to win up until the year that I they were doing the question and answer period because I knew I wasn?t going to win under the swimsuit during the question and answer period the question came “Why, young lady, what would you like to be when you grow up?” And by the time they got to me all the good answers were I had seen Barbara Walters on the “Today Show” that morning so I answered, “I would like to be a would like to tell other people?s stories in a way that makes a difference in their lives and the world.” And as those words were ing out of my mouth I went whoa!This is pretty good!I would like to be a want to make a I was on television by the time I was 19 years in 1986 I launched my own television show with a relentless determination to succeed at was nervous about the petition and then I became my own petition raising the bar every year, pushing, pushing, pushing myself as hard as I familiar to anybody here? Eventually we did make it to the top and we stayed there for 25 ,因此我想為你們做些特別的事。我希望今天我能為你們帶來一些啟發(fā)。不是每個(gè)來自密西西比州的農(nóng)村小姑娘都能來到劍橋城的(注:哈佛位于波士頓郊劍橋城)。所有2013屆的各位畢業(yè)生們!大家好!I thank you for allowing me to be a part of the conclusion of this chapter of your lives and the mencement of your next say that I?m honored doesn?t even begin to quantify the depth of gratitude that really acpanies an honorary doctorate from too many little girls from rural Mississippi have made it all the way here to I can tell you that I consider today as I sat on the stage this morning getting teary for you all and then teary for myself, I consider today a defining milestone in a very long and a blessed one hope today is that I can be a source of some ?m going to address my remarks to anybody who has ever felt inferior or felt disadvantaged, felt screwed by life, this is a speech for the 。有時(shí)難免會陷入掙扎卡在困境中,不過你想創(chuàng)造的人生故事會帶著你走出去。她敦促畢業(yè)生樂于接受挫折,視之為成長的契機(jī),并在生活與事業(yè)中追求為他人服務(wù)的機(jī)會。第二篇:Oprah(奧普拉)哈佛大學(xué)2013畢業(yè)典禮演講實(shí)錄(中英文)Oprah(奧普拉)哈佛大學(xué)2013畢業(yè)典禮演講實(shí)錄(中英文)美國脫口秀天后,國際知名慈善家奧普拉我喜歡錢。那么我是如何定義成功的呢?讓我告訴你,錢很美好。每一個(gè)人都會有的。如果你真的像飛翔,就把你的力量投入到你的激情當(dāng)中。當(dāng)我們做自己喜歡的事時(shí),當(dāng)我們?nèi)硇牡耐度氲焦ぷ髦袝r(shí),這些特質(zhì)就會煥發(fā)生機(jī)。他說,重要的不僅僅是邏輯上的,線性的,直尺式的思維方式。正如daniel pink在他的暢銷書a whole new mind中所說的那樣,我們進(jìn)入了一個(gè)新時(shí)代,一個(gè)他稱之為概念時(shí)代的時(shí)代。當(dāng)你什么也不要做時(shí),讓你的內(nèi)心作為驅(qū)動(dòng)力。這就是我所學(xué)到的。我的朋友,這個(gè)經(jīng)驗(yàn)會幫你避免很多痛苦。如果感覺不好,就不要去做。我所做過的所有正確選擇都是源自我內(nèi)心的。當(dāng)你應(yīng)該或者不應(yīng)該改做某事時(shí),你的內(nèi)心會告訴你怎樣去做。這是真的。當(dāng)你做的是一份你喜歡的工作時(shí),那感覺棒極了。這就是我工作的真正開始。當(dāng)我開始主持節(jié)目的時(shí)間侯,就像呼吸一樣。從我開始主持那檔節(jié)目的一刻開始,我感覺好像回到了家一樣。他們說我太情緒化了。這就是我如何養(yǎng)成了那個(gè)習(xí)慣。我晚上回到家后,我會記錄下我是多么的不幸和沮喪。晚上回到家后我會記日記。還是做你的本職工作吧。”我的老板也說:“這是晚間新聞。但那是我爸爸卻對我說:“這是你一生的機(jī)會。我想這樣下去學(xué)barbara可不大好。我還會遇到一些不認(rèn)識的和念錯(cuò)的詞。哦,我的天啊。所以我想為大家播報(bào)一些我想要的新聞。我努力像barbara那樣優(yōu)雅。我認(rèn)為我可能會成為一個(gè)傻傻的barbara。由于白天播報(bào)的那些新聞導(dǎo)致我晚上難以入睡。我需要為他人提供幫助。比光頭更令我討厭的是我不得不把播報(bào)別人遭受的痛苦作為我的日常工作。此時(shí)他們更不喜歡我的造型了??墒菐滋旌笪业念^發(fā)一團(tuán)糟?!蔽腋静幌馼arbara walters。但是如果是現(xiàn)在的話,那就是一件很嚴(yán)重的事了。然后他們還對我說他們不喜歡我的長相。我不會改我的名字。因?yàn)楫?dāng)你在午餐箱和牌號尋找你的名字時(shí),你 永遠(yuǎn)也不會找oprah。但是我的名字不是suzie。你不會厭惡suzie。我們已經(jīng)為你想了一個(gè)大家都會記住和喜歡的名字——suzie。那時(shí)導(dǎo)演對我說:“沒人會記住oprah這個(gè)名字。這就是我,22歲時(shí)每年掙22,000美元,然而,這種感覺并不好。你在22歲時(shí)掙每年能掙22,000美元。我遇到了在電視臺做實(shí)習(xí)生的gayle,我們立刻成了好朋友。而她正是我從業(yè)以來一直效法的對象。它那時(shí)對我來說它仿佛是世界上最重要的事。當(dāng)我離開大學(xué)一年后,在baltimore我得到了一個(gè)共同主持6點(diǎn)新聞的機(jī)會。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?你們是否會反感,當(dāng)有人對你說:“我想分享一些”但事實(shí)上卻是10個(gè)經(jīng)驗(yàn)。你越是使用它,你就得到更多。這樣你們豐富了心靈?!边@就是我們一直努力在做的,去做我們自己。她對我說:“你知道嗎?你一點(diǎn)也沒有變。我記得我所受到的最大的贊揚(yáng)就是當(dāng)我剛剛在芝加哥開始工作時(shí),我采訪了一個(gè)記者。我們能夠充滿激情的去生活和自我提高,這就是我們存在的意義。有時(shí)會充滿危機(jī)。我認(rèn)為這個(gè)世界,這個(gè)地球,就像一個(gè)學(xué)校和我們?nèi)松慕淌?。在很多情況下,這才是剛剛開使。我的爸爸非常的驕傲??晌腋嬖V他們,我不能去演講除非我得到那一個(gè)學(xué)分,因?yàn)槲野职挚偸钦f沒了那學(xué)位我將一事無成。在那時(shí),我已經(jīng)有了自己的電視節(jié)目,并加入了國家聯(lián)合會。他還是說:“我不知道沒有那個(gè)學(xué)位你怎么去找其他的工作?!彼f:“好吧,但是我還是不知道沒有那個(gè)學(xué)位你能干什么。由于我沒有畢業(yè),他總是說:“oprah gail(我的中間名字),我不知道沒有學(xué)位你能做些什么。所以我想,我不能讓關(guān)于我大學(xué)的那件事就這么過去,我還少一個(gè)學(xué)分?!钡沁@對我并不重要,因?yàn)槲乙呀?jīng)自食其力了。嚴(yán)肅地說,我爸爸告訴我,“好吧,新聞10:30結(jié)束。我在19歲還是大學(xué)二年級的時(shí)候就已經(jīng)上了電視。你們知道,我不會比得上我的同班同學(xué)。但是我本來不會拿到我的畢業(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,我知道根本不會拿到我的學(xué)位,因?yàn)槲覜]有去斯坦福念書。我對kirby大學(xué)四年真的沒有什么幫助。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kirby bumpus。我還有照片為證?!蔽艺f:“有一點(diǎn)?!比缓笕藗冋f:“我的天啊,難道說,你認(rèn)識oprah winfrey。因?yàn)楹芏嗳硕贾纆ayle king是我最好的朋友。當(dāng)她和她媽媽第一次來到斯坦福參加開學(xué)典禮時(shí),我聽說每個(gè)人都十分熱情。她說,她希望大家通過她自己的努力了解她,而不是她認(rèn)識誰。所以當(dāng)hennessy校長讓我來做演講時(shí),我受寵若驚,因?yàn)樽詮膋irby來這上學(xué)以來,這是我第一次被允許到斯坦福來。我決定透漏一個(gè)小秘密給大家來作為這次演講的開始。篇五:奧普拉在斯坦福大學(xué)2008畢業(yè)典禮上的演講 the stanfords had suffered the worst thing any mom and dad can ever endure, yet they understood that helping others is the way we help this wisdom is increasingly supported by scientific and sociological no longer just woowoo softskills actually a helpers high, a spiritual surge you gain from serving , if you want to feel good, you have to go out and do some when you do good, i hope you strive for more than just the good feeling that service provides, because i know this for sure, that doing good actually makes you , whatever field you choose, if you operate from the paradigm of service, i know your life will have more value and you will be was always happy doing my talk show, but that happiness reached a depth of fulfillment, of joy,
