Today I decided that I was going to make a video about something that I feel is very, very, very important.

今天，我決定來做一部影片關於一個我認為十分重要的東西。

This is the average life expectancy of a human being.

這是一個人的平均壽命。

Keep in mind this is an approximate number.

記住，這不過只是大概的數字。

It depends where you live in the world and what your lifestyle is like.

壽命會受到你居住的地方和你的生活模式所影響。

So here's where you're born.

這裡是你出生的時候。

Each one of these lines represents ten years.

這裡的每一直條都代表一個十年。

You might live longer than that.

你可能會活得更久。

You might live a little bit shorter than that.

也可能會少活幾年。

You never really know.

你沒辦法預料。

You could die here. You could die here.

你可能會在這裡死掉，也可能會在這裡死掉。

I wanted to make this video to show you something.

我想要透過這部影片告訴你們一件事。

I hope that this video lights a fire inside of you and gets your butt in gear to pursue that thing that you've been wanting to pursue but you keep putting off, and you keep saying, "oh tomorrow," or "when I have time," or "when the kids are in school," or "when I save up more money."

我希望這部影片會在你的心中燃起一株火苗，讓總是說「明天啦」、「等我有空」、「等孩子們去上學的時候」或「等我存多一點錢」的你，有動力去追求你一直想追求卻不斷拖延的東西。

Let me show you why time is so important.

讓我來告訴你為什麼時間這麼重要。

So, in society, typically, here's what happens: we're born: we're kids, and then we're teenagers.

那麼，這個社會通常是這樣的：我們出生，成為小孩，接著我們成為青少年。

And roughly around here, we start to work.

大約在這個時候，我們開始工作。

And we work, work, work, work, work.

然後我們工作，工作，工作，工作，工作。

We keep working all the way until we're 65 years old.

一直工作到我們六十五歲。

So, as you can see, that is most of your life.

正如同你所看到的，這佔據你大半的人生。

So it is very important to spend this time doing something that you love.

所以把這段時間花在做你喜歡的事情是非常重要的。

Being a kid is nice. Retiring is nice.

當小孩很爽，退休也是。

But what about the years in between?

但中間這些年呢？

These should not be just a "write-off," and just "waiting for Friday," "just get through it," and "can't wait till retirement", 'cause once those years are gone... they're gone!

它們不應該只是一個「被報廢的東西」、「等候星期五的無聊工作日」、「撐過去就好了」、「好期待退休」，因為一旦那些年消逝以後，它們就真的消失了！

What I'm saying is, if you're working at a job that you hate, just for a paycheck, then you need to make a change in your life, because what we know as humans is that we live on earth, and then we die.

我想說的是，如果你在從事一個你不喜歡的工作，只為了領薪水，那你就需要對你的人生做出一些改變了，因為身為人類，我們知道我們在地球上活過以後就會死去。

Where we go after we die... it's up for debate.

我們死去以後會到哪裡，還沒有一個正確的答案。

We all have different opinions on that.

我們大家對於這個問題都有不同的想法。

You get one shot, one chance.

你只有活一次人生的機會。

Make the most of it, and make sure that you are happy with your life.

好好把握它，一定要活得開心。

Unfortunately, we don't have forever, so...

不幸地是，我們沒辦法永遠活著，所以...

I didn't mean to make this to scare you.

我做這支影片不是為了要嚇你。

I made it to motivate you, and I want you to get after that thing that you've been wanting to do.

我是為了激勵你，希望你開始去做你一直想做的那件事。

Now is the time. Pursue it. Go after it. You have nothing to lose.

就是現在，去追求它，去吧！你沒什麼好失去的。

And make all of your years from birth to death meaningful, special, and purposeful.

讓你從出生到死亡的所有歲月是有意義、特別又有目的性的。

All the best. Good luck.

祝你們好運。
