Fall Forward - Denzel Washington

I found that nothing in life is worthwhile, unless you take risks. Nothing. Nelson Mandela said, there is no passion to be found playing small and settling for a life that's less than the one you're capable of living. 
我发现，如果你不冒险，生活中的一切都会是毫无价值的，一切都会毫无价值。曼德拉说过，如果安于现状，不思进取，那么生活就没有激情，尤其对于那些有能力让人生更精彩的人来说。

Now I'm sure in your experiences in school and applying to college and picking your major and deciding what you want to do with life. I'm sure people that told you to make sure you have something to fall back on. Make sure you've got something to fall back on honey. 
我敢肯定地说，在你们过去的经历中，无论是在学校，申请大学，挑选专业，还是在你们决定人生中要做些什么时，总会有人提醒你们，要记着给自己留后路。记得给自己留后路，亲爱的。

But I never understood that concept, having something to fall back on. If I'm going to fall, I don't want to fall back on anything. I want to fall forward. I figure at least this way I'll see what I'm going to hit. Without consistency, you'll never finish. So do what you feel passionate about, passionate about. Take chances. 
但我对此不理解，为什么要留后路？如果我会跌倒失败，我不想留什么后路，我想要向前倒（Fall Forward)。我认为，这样，至少我能看见我会栽在什么问题上。如果做不到坚持不懈，你什么也做不成。所以，做你热爱的事情，要敢于冒险。

Don't be afraid to fail, because the known IQ test that was nine dots, and you had to draw five lines with a pencil within these nine dots, without lifting the pencil. The only way to do it was to go outside the box. Don't be afraid to think outside the box. Don't be afraid to fail big, to dream big, but remember, dreams without goals are just dreams.
