埃隆·马斯克毕业典礼致辞：勇敢追求梦想

It is a great privilege to be here today to celebrate your graduation.今天能在这里庆祝你们毕业，我感到无比荣幸。

When you leave this university, you are entering a world full of opportunities.当你们走出这所大学，你们正迈入一个充满了无限机遇的世界。

The first thing I want to tell you is that you should follow your heart.我想告诉你们的第一件事是，你们应该勇敢追随自己的内心。

Do not spend your precious time living someone else's life.不要把你们宝贵的时光，浪费在过属于别人的生活上。

If something is important enough, you should do it even if the odds are against you.如果一件事对你足够重要，即使成功的概率微乎其微，你也应该去做。

When I created SpaceX, people told me that space exploration was impossible for a private company.当我创立 SpaceX 时，人们告诉我，对于一家私营公司来说，太空探索是不可能的。

They said I would lose all my money, and the company would certainly go bankrupt.他们说我会输光所有的钱，公司也必将面临破产。

I knew the risk was high, but I also knew that humanity needed a revolution in space travel.我知道风险极高，但我同样清楚，人类需要一场太空旅行领域的革命。

If we do not push the boundaries, we will never see what is beyond the horizon.如果我们不去推开未知的边界，我们就永远无法窥见地平线之外的风景。

So we kept trying, even after our rockets blew up three times in a row.所以我们坚持尝试，哪怕我们的火箭接连三次在空中爆炸。

It took everything we had to make that fourth launch a success.我们倾尽了所有，才终于换来了第四次发射的圆满成功。

The lesson here is simple: never let the fear of failure stop you from taking action.这其中的道理很简单：永远不要让对失败的恐惧，阻碍你采取行动的步伐。

You have the skills, the knowledge, and the youth to make a difference.你们拥有专业技能、知识积累和青春年华，足以去改变这个世界。

Do not be satisfied with the status quo, always question what can be improved.不要满足于现状，时刻去思考还有什么地方可以被改进和提升。

Work hard, be useful to society, and leave this world better than you found it.努力工作，做一个对社会有用的人，让这个世界因你的存在而变得更加美好。

I wish you all the best of luck on your incredible journey ahead.祝愿你们在未来充满传奇的征程中，一切顺利，前程似锦。
