英文演讲：Pain Is Your Friend

We all know the students that complain about their grades, but then do nothing about it. I'm failing my exams, the exams are too difficult. What are you doing about it, you got to take action in your life, find a solution to your problem, don't be the problem, take action. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

我们都知道那些抱怨自己成绩的学生，他们除了抱怨什么也不做：我考试不及格，考试太难了。然而你在做什么，你必须在生活中采取行动，找到解决问题的方法，千万不要让自己成为问题，而要采取行动。因为每一次行动都有一个对等相反的反应回馈给你。

It reminds me of the words of William Hollis, imagine if you got what you want, every time, no struggle, no challenges, no hard work required, some of you are saying, that would be great, you would be weak, and then when something hard comes up in your life, you wouldn't know how to handle it, because you have never gone through anything that strengthens you.

这样我想起威廉·霍利斯的那句名言：如果每一次你都能得到你想要的，没有挣扎，无需奋斗，没有挑战，不要求你付出努力。可能你们当中有些人会说这真是太好了。但是这样你会变得懦弱，然后如果你的人生突然出现了一些困难，你就不知道如何应对了，因为你从来没有经历过风雨。

You cannot grow without struggle, you cannot grow without resistance, pain is your friend, maybe not in the moment but in the long term, to develop a stronger human being, pain is your friend.

没有挣扎和对抗，何来成长。痛苦是你的朋友，或许短期看，它并不友好，但长远来看，要成为一个强大的人，痛苦是必不可少的朋友。

If you didn't have failures, if you didn't fail some exams, if you didn't get knocked back in class, you would have no strength, no courage.

如果你不曾失败，如果你没有过考试不及格，如果你在课堂上从未被否定过，那你可能不会有力量，也没有勇气。

How could you, you are given pain because you're strong enough to handle it, you're given this life because you are strong enough to live it, because you are strong enough to drive through it, to inspire others through it, they will look to you and say, he did it, she did it, and I have the strength to do it too. You are stronger than you think.

未经风雨，何来力量。你经受痛苦是因为你有足够的力量去处理它，你经历这样的生命是因为你足够强大，因为你有足够的力量去驾驭它，并通过它来激励别人，他们会看着你说，他做到了，她做到了，我也有力量做到。你比想象中的自己要强大。
