英文原文

It's a mountain of a dream, and a mile-high climb to the top. And what it took me a long time to discover is that I didn't like to climb much. I just like to imagine the top.

這是一座夢想之山，通往山頂?shù)穆吠居幸挥⒗锔?。而我花了很長時間才發(fā)現(xiàn)，我其實并不太喜歡攀登，我只是喜歡想象山頂?shù)臉幼印?/span>

Our culture would tell me that I've somehow failed myself. That I'm a quitter or a loser. Self-help would say that I either wasn't courageous enough, determined enough, or I didn't believe in myself enough. The entrepreneurial startup crowd would tell me that I chickened out on my dream and gave into my conventional social conditioning. I'd be told to do affirmations or join a mastermind group, or manifest or something.

我們的文化會告訴我，我在某種程度上辜負了自己。說我是個放棄者或失敗者。自我?guī)椭惖臅赡軙f我不夠勇敢、不夠堅定，或者不夠自信。創(chuàng)業(yè)圈的人會告訴我，我放棄了我的夢想，屈服于傳統(tǒng)的社會束縛，他們會建議我做肯定語、加入智囊團，或者進行某種形式的顯現(xiàn)。

But the truth is far less interesting than that. I thought I wanted something, but it turns out I didn't. End of story. I wanted the reward and not the struggle. I wanted the result and not the process. I was in love not with the fight but only the victory. And life doesn't work that way.

但真相其實遠沒有那么有趣。我以為我想要某些東西，但事實證明我并不想要。故事結束。我只想要回報，而不想要奮斗；我只想要結果，而不想要過程。我愛的不是戰(zhàn)斗，而是勝利。但生活并不是這樣的。

Who you are is defined by the values you are willing to struggle for. People who enjoy the struggles of a gym are the ones who get in good shape. People who enjoy long workweeks and the politics of the corporate ladder are the ones who move up it. People who enjoy the stresses and uncertainty of the starving artist lifestyle are ultimately the ones who live it and make it.

你是什么樣的人，是由你愿意為之奮斗的價值觀定義的。喜歡健身房挑戰(zhàn)的人，最終會擁有好身材；喜歡漫長的工作周和公司階梯政治的人，最終會晉升；喜歡饑餓藝術家生活方式的壓力和不確定性的人，最終會過上這種生活并取得成功。
