So curious, have you ever had someone not believe in you or they said something really horrible about your work or felt like a punch in the gut and just left you thinking, “Oh my God, how could someone be that mean?” I have.

我好奇的想問一下，你有沒有曾經遇過有人不相信你，或是他們說你的工作實在太可怕、太糟糕了，就像打了你一拳而且讓你覺得，「天啊！怎麼會有人這麼惡劣？」我有過這樣的經驗。

So let me tell you what it did for me and, more importantly, what it could do for you.

所以讓我來告訴你，這帶給我什麼影響，更重要的是，這會帶給你什麼。

So back in 2009 my program B-School was getting ready to be brought into the world and I was trying to do everything I could to make it a success.

回到 2009 年，我在商業學校的計劃正準備好要向全世界發表，我嘗試任何的方法讓它成功。

I was trying to network, find promotional partners, basically get the word out all over.

我試著與客戶交流，找到幫忙推廣的夥伴，基本上也獲得了非常好的成果。

So I went to this business conference in Washington DC and I was so excited to be there.

所以我去了在華盛頓舉辦的商業會議，我覺得非常興奮可以參加會議。

I had my little conference badge around my neck, I had my big conference binder under my arm, everything was going good.

我在脖子上掛上了會議名牌、我將大大的會議資料本夾在手臂下，一切都很順利。

So I'm on the escalator heading to go up to one of the main sessions and there was this guy in front of me and he was part of the conference too.

我在手扶梯上，前往參與重要會議。有個男士在我的前面，他也是來參加會議的一員。

So, of course, as you do at conferences, he turned around and he asked me. It's like, “Oh, so what do you do?”

當然，就像你會在會議裡做的事，他轉身並且問我，就像這樣：「噢，你是做什麼的？」

This was the perfect opportunity. I was so excited. I started telling him about B-School.

這是個完美的機會。我非常的興奮。我開始跟他說有關於我商業學校的事。

I said, “Oh, I'm launching this incredible online business program for women entrepreneurs.”

我說：「噢，是我發起了這個很棒的線上商業計劃給女性企業家們。」

And so he says, “Oh, that's cute. Is that a hobby? Do you actually make money doing that? Or do you have a rich husband who is bankrolling you?”

然後他說：「噢，真可愛，這是你的嗜好嗎？你有實際透過做這個賺到錢嗎？還是你有個有錢的老公資助妳？」

For one of the very few times in my life, I was absolutely speechless.

在那我生命裡幾乎沒有遇過的一刻，我完全說不出話來。

I felt like I just got gone by the ultimate business debate.

我覺得我被終極的商業辯論打敗了。

I was thinking to myself,“I cannot believe a-hole like this still exists.”And thank God it was a short little escalator ride because I wanted to throw him over that freaking escalator.

我那時在想，「我不敢相信世上還有這種人存在」，感謝上帝，這次搭電扶梯的時間很短，因為... 我想把他從電扶梯上丟下去！

I got myself together, I mustered out something about that I had been successfully supporting myself in business for the last 9 years, and then I did whatever I could to get away from that turd muncher as fast as humanly possible.

我想到了我在過去九年經營相當成功的事業，然後我盡一切可能來擺脫那個男人煩人的噪音，盡我可能的趕快忘記。

Now, here's my point, well that guy was a total ignorato for what he said to me, I actually thank him for not believing in me. I thank him for underestimating me.

現在，這是我的觀點，那個男生根本沒注意到他對我說了什麼，我現在感謝他不相信我，我感謝他低估我了

I thank him for being a totally ignorant chauvinistic piece of poop. You know why?

我感謝他是一個徹底無知的沙文主義者(極端的、盲目愛國的)，你知道為什麼嗎？

Because he actually fueled me to make B-School even more of a success.

因為事實上他給了我力量讓我的商業學校企劃更加成功。

I was already committed to it, but after that interaction, nothing was going to stop me.

我本來已經全心致力於我的事情，而上次的互動並沒有阻止我。

Now, I know that not everybody is wired in the exact same way, but for me when I want some really bad and someone basically says, “You can't do that,”it just gets me totally fired up and motivated to prove them wrong.

現在，我知道並不是每個人都會被這樣的方式綑綁住、感到挫折，但對我而言，當我在非常困難的時刻，或是有些人說「你做不到」，這只是徹底的讓我更有動力前進，去證明他們是錯的。

And, yes, I know in a certain spiritual framework we don't wanna be reactive to life, but what I'm saying is this, is that every single thing that happens to you, including what I now call escalator moment, are fuel for growth and sometimes even more so than the encouraging moments.

是的，我知道在某些時候，會讓我們不想去面對，但我要說的是，每件發生在你身上的事，包括現在我說的電扶梯時刻，他們都是成長的燃料、動力，有時候更甚至比我們受到鼓勵時所成長的多。

And to help you remember this, here's a Tweetable: “Sometimes a put-down is the best fuel to fire you up.”So let's turn this inspiration into action.

為了幫助你記得這個，這裡有則推特文：有時候跌倒是你前進的最佳動力，所以讓我們將這個靈感轉換為行動。

I would love to hear about your escalator moment.

我也想聽聽看你們的電扶梯時刻。

Let's have a real honest to goodness thank you fest for those people that have not believed in you or for those times when life has challenged your belief in yourself.

讓我們誠實善良的謝謝那些不相信你的人或那些讓自己的信念受到挑戰的時刻。

Tell me how you can take one of those moments and really let it fuel you into what you want to create right now.

告訴我你會如何處理這些時刻，並且真的讓它成為你的動力去完成現在想做的事。
