全球权势女性给毕业生的忠告：不要被挫折和恐惧占据

Optimism isn’t a life plan, but it is a great tailwind to have at your back. And if you take advantage of that tailwind by doing what you love, striving for perfection, constantly learning, believing in yourself as well as believing in others, you are bound to conquer the world.
乐观不是生活计划，但它是你身后强大的推动力。而且，如果你利用这种推动力并做你喜欢做的事，努力做到尽善尽美，不断学习，相信自己并相信他人，那么你必将征服世界。

“When times get tough and fear sets in, think of those people who paved the way for you and those who are counting on you to pave the way for them. Never let setbacks or fear dictate the course of your life. Hold on to the possibility and push beyond the fear.”
“当形势变得艰难、恐惧滋生时，想想那些为你铺平道路的人和那些指望你为他们铺平道路的人。永远不要让挫折和恐惧占据你的人生之路。只要有可能，就要坚持，把恐惧抛到脑后。”

Women almost never make one decision to leave the workforce. It doesn’t happen that way. They make small little decisions along the way that eventually lead them there….So, my heartfelt message to all of you is, and start thinking about this now, do not leave before you leave. Do not lean back; lean in. Put your foot on that gas pedal and keep it there until the day you have to make a decision, and then make a decision. That’s the only way, when that day comes, you’ll even have a decision to make.
女性几乎从来不会主动做出离职的决定。但事实并非如此。他们一路上做出了很多看似微不足道的、引起她们最终离职的决定……所以，我对你们各位的衷心建议，现在就开始思考这个问题，不要在离开前才去想。不要退缩，要前进。把脚踩在油门上，在你不得不做出决定的那天踩紧它，然后作出决定。这是那天到来时唯一的方法，你甚至将有决定可以做。

So with the world at your fingertips, have you learned to listen to your heart, your intuition and your instincts?…Your heart is your guiding force, teach yourself to listen to it, nurture it, and let it guide as you start this next exciting chapter of life.
现在，你们即将踏入社会，你学会倾听你们的内心、直觉和天性了吗？……你的内心是引导你们前行的力量，学会自己去倾听它、滋养它，并在你解开生命中下一个激动人心的篇章时，让它引导你的前行。
