In fact, I get this question all the time: "how do you stay motivated?"

我常常被問到這個問題：「你如何保持動力？」

Well, here's the deal.

讓我告訴你吧。

I'm not motivated all the time.

我並不是無時無刻都很有動力。

I think a lot of you guys think that, because, I was a seal, or I got a big social media presence, or, I run a successful company that I wake up out of bed and I piss excellence and I'm motivated all the time.

我想很多人都會因為知道我是海豹部隊的、我在社群上有一席地位、我有個成功的公司，所以認為我連起床上廁所都很完美，而且我隨時都很有動力。

It's not like that.

這絕對不是事實。

I see these guys out there, and, they're pitching their motivation and they look really motivated, and it seems like they're motivated every second of every day, 365 days a year.

我常常看到很多人有一些關於動力的演講，他們都看起來充滿動力，就好像 365 天的每一秒鐘都非常積極一樣。

I'm not buying it. I'm just not buying it.

我真的不信。我就是不信。

I'm just like everyone else. I'm hard on myself.

我就像其他每個人一樣。我對自己很嚴格。

I get down on myself. I get myself into ruts, I psyche like myself out. I get tired. I start wondering is all this shit that I'm doing even worth it? Is it even worth the effort you know.

我對自己失望，我讓自己掉入一刻也不想待著的深淵，我會覺得累，因為我不知道這一切到底值不值得付出努力。

I get...I bitch. I bitch constantly about my bullshit little problems.

我會埋怨，我總在對我的各種小問題抱怨。

I get to the point where I want to quit, where I want to quit the business.

直到我開始想放棄，想放棄我的工作。

I wanted to quit at Buds, I wanted to quit at the agency, and you know what, there's gonna be times where I want to quit again.

我想退出這個機構，而且我知道自己以後還會出現很多次想放棄的情況。

But I don't quit. That's the difference.

但我不會放棄，這就是重點。

You're gonna run into hurdles that seem like they're impossible to jump over.

你會遇到很多看似過不去的障礙。

You're gonna run into roadblocks that seem like they're impossible to get through.

你會遇到很多看似闖不過的難關。

You're gonna get yourself into ruts that feel like they're impossible to get out of, but you just got to keep going. You got to keep going. You got to realize you're gonna find something that motivates you again.

你會掉入一個看似出不來的深淵，但你不能停下腳步，你要繼續前進，直到你發現某個能讓你再次充滿動力的東西。

It's what you do in between those motivational sets where you are motivated, that's gonna set you apart from everyone else.

關鍵在於，你在很有動力的期間做了什麼，那才是讓你和別人產生差異的地方。

Everybody can be super productive and a badass when they're motivated.

有動力的時候，每個人都可以變得超級有效率、超猛。

It's what you do when you're not, knowing that you will find it again.

但沒有動力的時候你要告訴自己你會再次找到動力。

You'll find your motivation again.

你會再次找到動力。

You just got to realize sometimes you gotta suck it up, and you're gonna have to pay the fucking man every once in a while.

你要明白很多時候你就是必須咬緊牙關， 必須時不時付出一些代價。

There's no secret recipe.

這種事沒有攻略秘笈。

My point here is, you're not gonna be motivated all the time, and when you do hit that motivation again, ride it, because that's gonna give you the momentum that you need to carry it through the next time you're not motivated.

我想說的是，你不可能每分每秒都很有動力，但當你有的時候，放手去做，因為它會成為你在下次失去動力的時候的鼓勵，幫助你撐下去。

It comes in, it comes in waves. It comes in waves.

它來的時候就像海浪一樣。

Life's not all petting unicorns and shitting rainbows; in fact, it's usually quite the opposite.

人生並不輕鬆，不像摸摸獨角獸、看看彩虹那麼簡單，應該說它是完全相反的。

But, if you dig in, keep your head up, and put one foot in front of the other and drive forward, every day even when you're not motivated, maybe you will get to pet a unicorn and you might get to shit a rainbow.

但如果你能每天專心致志、抬頭挺胸、一步一腳印持續前進，即使在沒有動力的日子也這樣做的話，你也許最後真的能夠摸到獨角獸，也能看到彩虹。

So keep that in mind, just remember, just because you're not motivated doesn't mean you can't reach your goals.

所以記著，好好記著，即使你沒有動力，那也不表示你不能達成你的目標。

You'll find your motivation again.

你會再次找到你的動力。
