1. Matt Cutts 马特・卡茨
演讲:Try something new for 30 days 《尝试新事物三十天》
English: A few years ago, I felt like I was stuck in a rut. So I decided to try something new for 30 days. The idea is simple: pick something you have always wanted to do, and stick to it for a month. I found that 30 days is just the right length of time to build a new habit, or break an old one. The biggest change I noticed was confidence. As I kept completing these small challenges, I gradually believed I was capable of more than I imagined.
中文:几年前,我陷入一成不变的生活,于是决定用三十天尝试全新的事情。道理很简单:选一件你一直想做的事,坚持一个月。我发现三十天恰好足够养成新习惯,或是戒掉旧习惯。我感受到最大的改变是自信。当我不断完成这些微小挑战,我慢慢相信,自己远比想象中更有能力。
English: If you really want something badly enough, you can do anything for 30 days. Big dreams often feel overwhelming, but when you shrink the challenge down to one day at a time, persistence becomes achievable. You don’t need dramatic transformations overnight. Sustainable growth happens through tiny, consistent actions.
中文:如果你足够渴望一件事,任何事你都可以坚持三十天。宏大的梦想常常令人望而生畏,但当你把挑战拆解为一天一天的任务,坚持就变得触手可及。不必奢求一夜之间脱胎换骨。长久的成长,源自持续不断的微小行动。

2. Chris Hadfield 克里斯・哈德菲尔德
演讲:What I learned from going blind in space 《太空失明教会我的事》
English: You cannot eliminate risk from life, but you can train yourself to face difficulty calmly. Willpower is not the ability to never feel afraid. Willpower means recognizing fear, accepting it, and continuing to act according to your plan. Hardship does not wait for you to be ready. You build strength by practicing how to respond when everything goes wrong.
中文:我们无法消除人生中的风险,但可以训练自己冷静面对困境。意志力不是从不感到恐惧,而是看见恐惧、接纳恐惧,依旧按照计划行动。磨难不会等你准备就绪才到来。当一切脱离预期时,学会从容应对,力量便由此而生。
3. Adam Grant 亚当・格兰特
演讲:The power of rethinking 《重新思考的力量》
English: Growth requires us to doubt what we believe today. Many people mistake consistency for strength. They refuse to adjust their paths because they fear admitting past efforts were wasted. But perseverance does not mean stubbornly repeating the same approach. True resilience is holding firmly to your values, while staying flexible about your methods.
中文:想要成长,就要敢于质疑当下笃定的想法。很多人把固执等同于强大,不愿调整方向,害怕承认过往付出付诸东流。但是坚持不等于顽固地重复老路。真正的韧性,是坚守内心目标,同时灵活调整前行方式。
4. Sarah Lewis 萨拉・刘易斯
演讲:Embrace the near win 《拥抱差一点成功》
English: Most breakthroughs arrive not after instant victory, but after countless near wins. Those moments when you come close yet still fall short are not failures. They offer clear information about where you still need to grow. Persistence thrives when you stop seeing near success as defeat, and start seeing it as a map toward achievement.
中文:绝大多数突破,并非紧随一次胜利而来,而是诞生于无数次 “差一点就成功”。那些无限接近目标却依旧落空的时刻,并非失败。它们清晰指明了你仍需要成长的地方。当你不再把功亏一篑视作溃败,而是当作通往目标的路线图,你才能长久坚持下去。
5. Derek Sivers 德里克・西弗斯
演讲:Keep your goals to yourself 《不要向外宣扬你的目标》
English: Telling others your ambitions gives your brain a false sense of accomplishment. You feel satisfied prematurely and lose the urgent drive to take action. Progress happens in quiet work. Real willpower comes from showing up every day without needing external praise. Do not seek recognition before the work is done.
中文:向众人宣扬目标,会让大脑产生已经达成目标的虚假满足感。你过早获得心理满足,行动的紧迫感随之消散。进步藏在默默耕耘之中。真正的意志力,是日复一日持续行动,不必依靠外界赞美支撑。在事情完成之前,不必急于寻求认可。
6. Robert Waldinger 罗伯特・瓦尔丁格
演讲:What makes a good life? Lessons from the longest study on happiness 《什么样的人生才美好》
English: Long-term growth is not built on short-term achievements. It is built on the patience to keep investing in what matters, even when rewards take decades to appear. Persistence gains meaning when you know what you value. Without a clear sense of what matters to you, discipline easily becomes empty exhaustion.
中文:长久的成长,并不建立在短期成就之上。它源于一份耐心:持续投入重要的事物,哪怕回报需要数十年才会显现。当你清楚自己珍视什么,坚持才有意义。倘若没有内心的价值方向,自律只会沦为空洞的消耗。
7. Lolly Daskal(TEDx)洛莉・达斯卡尔
演讲:The leadership gap 《领导力鸿沟》
English: The greatest barrier to progress is not lack of talent, but the willingness to repeatedly confront your own weaknesses. Many quit early because they cannot bear seeing their flaws. Growth means facing uncomfortable truths about yourself over and over again. Resilience is built not when everything works well, but when you choose to improve after seeing your limitations.
中文:阻碍人前进最大的壁垒,从来不是缺乏天赋,而是不愿反复直面自身弱点。许多人早早放弃,只因无法接纳自己的不足。成长意味着一次次面对关于自己、令人不适的真相。韧性不会在万事顺遂时形成,而是在看清局限之后,依旧选择持续精进。
8. Brené Brown 布琳・布朗
演讲:Call to courage 《勇敢的呼唤》
English: We often wait for certainty before committing to a long journey. But certainty rarely exists at the start. Perseverance begins with choosing to move forward without all the answers. Courage and grit are not about having no doubts. They are about carrying doubt alongside you and continuing to walk forward anyway.
中文:我们常常等待一切确定之后,才愿意踏上漫长征途。但在起点,很少存在绝对的确定。坚持始于尚未掌握所有答案时,依然选择前行。勇气与坚毅,不代表心中毫无疑虑;而是带着疑虑,依旧不断向前。
