未來簡單式

Today we have an important video, probably the most important one I'm ever gonna make.

今天我們有一個重要的視頻，可能是我有生以來最重要的一個視頻。

過去簡單式

My most asked question, how did you do it?

我被問得最多的問題是，你是怎麼做到的？

How did you study for 12 hours a day for over a year?

你是如何在一年多的時間裡每天學習 12 個小時的？

So yeah, let's just go ahead and talk motivation, discipline, drive, mindset.

所以，我們還是來談談動力、紀律、幹勁和心態吧。

是什麼導致一個人做出我所做的事情？

So yeah, this is just what worked for me, how I did it, and kind of where I came from.

所以，這就是我的工作方法，我是怎麼做的，以及我的出發點。

And yeah, let's just go ahead and get right into it.

是啊，我們就直接進入正題吧。

So what finally caused that 180 to the point where you're here now?

那麼，是什麼最終導致了 180 度的轉變，讓你來到了這裡？

And definitely the first step that I took was in physics.

而我邁出的第一步無疑是物理學。

Our professor assigned us a TED talk to watch and it was about this thing called the growth mindset.

我們的教授給我們安排了一場 TED 演講，講的是一種叫做 "成長心態 "的東西。

And in the video they introduced two mindsets.

在視頻中，他們介紹了兩種心態。

The first one is the fixed mindset and the second one is the growth mindset.

第一種是固定型思維模式，第二種是成長型思維模式。

And in the fixed mindset it's kind of like, alright here is my ceiling and anything outside of that ceiling I'm just not gonna do.

而在固定思維模式中，這就好比，這是我的上限，任何超出上限的事情我都不會去做。

I'm born with a limit and I don't want to push myself.

我生來就有極限，我不想勉強自己。

I'm not smart enough to do this assignment and my boy Greg has got me.

我還沒聰明到能完成這個任務，我的好兄弟格雷格已經幫我搞定了。

And that's definitely the mindset that I had up until that point in my life, was the fixed mindset.

在那之前，我的思維模式肯定是固定思維模式。

You know, in high school I did really well without studying.

要知道，在高中時，我不學習也能取得很好的成績。

Why would I study when I can get A's just fine?

我可以拿 A，為什麼還要學習？

But you see when college finally rolled around and it was actually difficult, I didn't think that it was my studying that was a problem, right?

但你看，當大學生活終於來臨，而且實際上很困難的時候，我並不認為是我的學習出了問題，對嗎？

And that was just kind of how I was raised, you know.

That kid's a priority over there, so he's probably not very hard-working and he just is born with all that talent and he can just do it out of the bat.

那孩子是那邊的重點培養對象，所以他可能不是很勤奮，只是天生就有這樣的天賦，一出手就能做到。

I really thought that my mindset was the issue and I knew that I had like wanted to do well in university and in life in general.

我真的認為是我的心態出了問題，我知道我想在大學和整個生活中取得好成績。

So the other mindset they introduced is the growth and pushing yourself and breaking yourself down so that you can come back stronger.

是以，他們引入的另一種思維方式是成長、逼迫自己、擊垮自己，這樣你就能變得更強大。

It's about not waning in the face of aversion, you know.

這就是在厭惡面前不退縮，你知道嗎？

And it's not, it's definitely a paradigm shift to what I had before.

這不是，這絕對是我之前的模式轉變。

And it's the very first step that I took was adopting and understanding the mindset in its entirety.

而我邁出的第一步，就是全面採用和理解這種思維方式。

So if you're not familiar with the growth mindset I highly recommend you check it out and yep that was the first step that I took.

是以，如果你不熟悉成長型思維模式，我強烈建議你去了解一下，沒錯，這就是我邁出的第一步。

Alright second topic that I want to talk about which is drive, motivation, and the desire to succeed, alright.

好吧，我想談的第二個話題是動力、動機和成功的渴望，好嗎。

所以，這是一個相當沉重的話題。

I don't know how quickly I could summarize my entire life's experience in these short two minutes or so, but motivation and drive.

我不知道在這短短的兩分鐘左右的時間裡，我能以多快的速度概括我的整個人生經歷，但動力和幹勁是最重要的。

The key part that I want you to take out of this following segment is that I don't rely on motivation to do the things that I do.

我想讓你們從下面這段話中明白的關鍵部分是，我做的事情並不依賴於動機。

I think that if you just rely on motivation you're just setting yourself up for failure, right.

我認為，如果你只是依賴於動機，那你就是在為自己的失敗埋下伏筆，對吧。

You know what, it's raining outside, I don't feel like running, I'm just not gonna go train for the marathon today.

你知道嗎，外面在下雨，我不想跑步，我今天就不去參加馬拉松訓練了。

No, it might get you there for like two weeks, but in the long run, no, motivation does not work at all.

不，它可能會讓你在兩週內達到目標，但從長遠來看，不，激勵根本不起作用。

So I think when people ask me all the time, how are you so motivated?

所以我想，當人們總是問我，你怎麼會有這麼大的動力？

The thing is I'm not motivated to do any of this.

問題是我沒有做這些事的動力。

I'm driven to do this and that's a very big difference, right.

我有動力去做這件事，這是一個非常大的區別，對吧。

The fundamental change between the two is that drive continues.

兩者的根本變化在於驅動力仍在繼續。

Drive can get you from point A to point B without stopping and it doesn't care about the rain outside when you're trying to go running.

當你想跑步時，它不會在意外面的雨水。

It doesn't care about how cold the water is when you go shower, you know.

你知道，它並不關心你洗澡時水有多涼。

And that sounds pretty intense, but you ought to understand that motivation is volatile, you know.

這聽起來很激烈，但你應該明白，動機是不穩定的。

It's easy to be motivated to do hard things when you're comfortable in life, when everything is going just a-okay.

當你生活安逸，一切順利時，很容易被激勵去做艱苦的事情。

But when you finally face challenges that actually push your buttons, motivation is not gonna work.

但是，當你終於面臨真正讓你惱火的挑戰時，激勵就不起作用了。

這就是為什麼我依靠我的驅動力。

I have a difficult time defining it in words, but my desire to succeed kind of does infance a flame inside my heart to get me driven to do the things that I want to achieve.

我很難用語言來定義它，但我對成功的渴望確實在我心中燃起了一團火焰，驅使我去做我想做的事情。

My goals, my aspirations, those are your drive.

我的目標、我的願望，就是你的動力。

And if you rely on motivation to get them, it won't work.

如果你靠激勵來獲得它們，那是行不通的。

那麼，你是如何最終找到自己的驅動力的呢？

I think like I hadn't met truly driven people in my life before, you know.

我覺得我以前從未遇到過真正有幹勁的人，你知道的。

I've met people who are brilliant but also driven.

我遇到過才華橫溢但又充滿幹勁的人。

They wanted to get life's full experience.

他們希望獲得人生的完整體驗。

That's actually why I started this channel, was to share my drive online.

事實上，這就是我開設這個頻道的原因，就是為了在網上分享我的動力。

I don't want to say I read a book, but the book Can't Hurt Me by David Goggins was really important in understanding why I wanted to do the things that I did.

我不想說我讀過一本書，但大衛-戈金斯（David Goggins）寫的《傷不起我》（Can't Hurt Me）一書對我理解自己為什麼想做那些事情非常重要。

I had this really massive chip on my shoulders all in high school because I was always like the weird kid who wasn't socially successful, wasn't particularly liked by other people.

我在高中的時候就有一個很大的包袱，因為我總是像個怪孩子，不善交際，不被別人喜歡。

And I just really remember like hating that feeling, people just looking down on me, you know.

我只記得我很討厭那種感覺，人們都看不起我，你知道的。

Like I'm just another person that they're gonna meet.

就好像我只是他們要見的另一個人。

But I just remember being like, I'm just gonna be so driven that you won't forget me.

但我只記得我當時想，我一定要讓你忘不了我。

Yeah, I just always had that chip on my shoulder because I was always just like the weird kid and I just always wanted to do better.

是的，我一直都有這樣的想法，因為我一直都是個怪孩子，我一直都想做得更好。

Also will say about the whole drive thing that it's not about showing off how driven you are or anything.

我還想說的是，開車這件事並不是為了炫耀自己有多能幹。

It's not about doing it for other people.

I would say that it was definitely for me.

我想說，這絕對是為我準備的。

Like if you watch videos from when I was a little kid or in high school, middle school, you could see how unconfident I was, you know.

比如，如果你看我小時候或高中、國中時的視頻，你就會發現我是多麼不自信，你知道的。

Anything that knocked me down, I'll just kind of roll over and lay there.

任何把我擊倒的東西，我都會翻個身躺在那裡。

And understanding why I wanted to do better really took me a long time to figure out.

我花了很長時間才弄明白為什麼我想做得更好。

And I think the book Can't Hurt Me explains the reason for his drive.

我認為《傷不起我》一書解釋了他的動力原因。

And I could see a lot of myself in that person.

在那個人身上，我看到了自己的影子。

And I also wanted to share that with you guys.

這就是我開設這個頻道的原因。

I wouldn't say that I did it for other people, you know.

我不會說我這樣做是為了別人，你知道的。

I did it for me because I wanted to become the best person that I could be.

我這樣做是為了自己，因為我想成為最好的自己。

And things like sitting there on Instagram all day, watching pointless YouTube videos all day, running away, don't get me there.

至於整天坐在 Instagram 上、整天看毫無意義的 YouTube 視頻、逃避等事情，我是不會去做的。

我花了 19 年時間才明白這一點。

And I really want to connect with people.

And I just wasn't putting the two and two together.

我只是沒有把這兩件事聯繫起來。

I didn't know what I really wanted until I just been pushed so hard.

我不知道自己真正想要的是什麼，直到我被逼得走投無路。

The COVID and school, my family, no family, not having a family.

COVID 和學校、我的家庭、沒有家庭、沒有家人。

And I realized that I couldn't just stop and care about small things together.

我意識到，我不能只是停下來一起關心小事。
