Week05 Day05【Keep Looking, Don't Settle】- By Steve Jobs

Speech at Stanford Commencement by Steve Jobs 史蒂夫•乔布斯 斯坦福大学毕业典礼 演讲（节选） I&`&m pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn&`&t been fired from Apple. It was awful-tasting medicine but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life&`&s going to hit you in the head with a brick. Don&`&t lose faith. I&`&m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You&`&ve got to find what you love, and that is as true for work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work, and the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven&`&t found it yet, keep looking, and don&`&t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you&`&ll know when you find it, and like any great relationship it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking. Don&`&t settle. 【参考译文】 我非常确信，如果我没有被苹果炒掉，这些就都不会发生。这个药的味道太糟了，但是我想病人需要它。有些时候，生活会给你迎头一棒。不要丧失信心。我确信唯一让我一路走下来的是我对自己所做事情的热爱。你必须去找你热爱的东西，对工作如此，对你的爱人也是这样的。工作会占据你生命中很大的一部分，你只有相信自己做的是伟大的工作，你才能怡然自得。如果你还没有找到，那么就继续找，不要停。全心全意地找，当你找到时，你会知道的。就像任何真诚的关系，随着时间的流逝，只会越来越紧密。所以继续找，不要停。
