I believe determination in its purest form stems from "ignited passion".

我相信最純粹的堅定源自“燃燒的激情”。

There is a certain level of confidence and strength that must be present in order to maintain a determined disposition. It is not something we can fake. When we are passionate about something and believe in ourselves enough to move in the direction of our goals, we can wake up the human will and potential necessary to achieve our greatest dreams.

堅定的性格里，少不了相當程度的信心和力量。這一點無法偽裝。如果我們對某事充滿激情，又足夠自信，開始向著目標前進，那么我們就能夠喚醒實現(xiàn)最偉大夢想所必需的人類意志和潛能。

I am mesmerized by my son's determination with many things in life, in particular his aptitude andtenacity in sports. He has a quiet confidence about him and a fierce determination that is captivating. His will to put his all into his sport, whether baseball or hockey, isn't "put on" or expected of him. This will comes from deep within the core of who he is. It is unbridled passion.

我兒子在人生的很多事上都很堅定，我對此深深著迷，尤其是他在運動上展現(xiàn)出的那份傾心與韌勁。他對自己相當自信，有一種迷人的堅定決心。他愿意將自己的一切投入到運動上，不論是棒球還是曲棍球，這種意愿并不是誰“強加”在他身上的，也不是因為有誰期待他才這么做。他的意志來自內(nèi)心深處，是一種無拘無束的激情。

I am truly intrigued by the seriousness and drive with which he approaches the game. He may be a little-leaguer, but to him it is important business, and something he enjoys to the ends of the earth. When he goes up to bat he is preparing for the big home run; you can see it in his eyes. Whether he gets that big hit or not, he runs to first base like his pants are on fire. If he strikes out he doesn't let thatdampen his spirits; he goes up to bat the next time with the same fervor and determination.

他走向賽場時透出的那股認真和沖勁，真叫人迷戀。也許他只是一個小球員，但是對他來說，球賽既是重要的事業(yè)，也是他的最愛。他拿起球棒時，就準備著打出了不起的本壘打;這一點你可以從他的眼睛里看出來。不管他有沒有將球擊中，他都會像褲子著了火一樣拼命沖向一壘。如果他沒有擊中，也絕不會喪氣;他會再次帶著同樣的熱情和堅定拿起球棒。

My point here has less to do with little league baseball and everything to do with the human spirit and its amazing capacity to keep pushing forward when things are uncertain or challenging.

我在這里想說的與棒球聯(lián)賽沒有多大關系，而是想講當你遇到不確定或很有挑戰(zhàn)的事時，怎樣才能具備人類精神和不可思議的能力，繼續(xù)前進。

These three powerful human characteristics can help us view our dreams and passions through a more hopeful determined lens.

以下三種強大的人類性格可以幫助我們透過更大的希望和決心來看我們的夢想和激情。

Resiliency

恢復能力

The human spirit is strong and resilient, and can overcome some of the most tragic circumstances. There are countless stories, historical and current, in which people have faced unthinkable challenges and yet they carry on. They are somehow willing to tap into something deep inside themselves that keeps them moving forward. I can't help but be moved and inspired by this amazing trait we are born with. It is something we can draw on to overcome adversity and help us reach our dreams.

人類精神非常強大，且具有恢復能力，足以對抗某些最可怕的悲劇。不論是在歷史上還是在當前，都有很多人面對難以想象的困難依舊向前，這種故事數(shù)不勝數(shù)。不論如何，他們愿意發(fā)掘自身深處的某種力量奮勇向前。我無法自已地被這種令人驚奇的天賦所打動、受到鼓舞。我們可以利用它克服困難并實現(xiàn)夢想。

Courage

勇氣

Some of the most rewarding learning experiences in my life have resulted from facing challenges that require courage and raw determination. For me, it isn't about winning or losing, or achieving a certain result. It is about refusing to stop in my tracks at the first sign of fear, and not allowing obstacles to prevent dreams from becoming a reality. At the end of the day, it is about finding that inner strength we all have, and summoning the courage to align it with the things we are most passionate about.

我在人生中得到的一些最寶貴經(jīng)驗來自面對挑戰(zhàn)，而要戰(zhàn)勝這些挑戰(zhàn)則需要勇氣和純粹的決心。對我來說，這無關勝負或結果。重點在于，當?shù)谝唤z恐懼出現(xiàn)時，我拒絕止步不前，不允許困難阻礙夢想成真。最終，要找到我們都擁有的內(nèi)在力量，鼓起勇氣，讓勇氣與我們最熱愛之事并行。

Permission

許可

When we give ourselves permission to ignite the passion in our lives, and when we believe in ourselves regardless of the outcome, we give ourselves in turn one of the greatest gifts in life.

當我們允許自己點燃內(nèi)心的激情、不論結果如何都相信自己，我們也就送給了自己生命中最好的一份禮物。

What would happen if you gave yourself the gift of looking at what some of your passions are?

如果我們能集中精力于激情所在，且能將此作為禮物送給自己，會發(fā)生什么呢?
