Facebook创始人演讲:创业技能习得

I actually studied Psychology in Harvard,not Computer Science. Although a little bit of Computer Science. I've been programming since I was ten. And I think that it kind of like went, reach the point where went into my intuition.
其实我在哈佛念的是心理学，不是计算机。但也学了点计算机，我从十岁就开始编程，我觉得编程已经成了我本能直觉的一部分。

I'm not really thinking that much about it consciously. So that was pretty good. And then, I mean when I started thinking about all the people issues and doing Psychology, it was like being in the university interacting with a lot of people, that it kind of occurred to me that this would be something I was interested in, and like I knew how to do it so I just do it. I mean, it took me like a couple of weeks here, even less, putting together the site.
我（在写程序时）不再会有意识地想该怎么做。这种感觉很好。当我在学心理学的时候，开始思考人与人之间的关系,就像在大学里读书，去结识很多的人，我觉得我会对这些很感兴趣，我知道该怎么做，然后就做了。我只花了几周甚至更少的时间建立这个网站。

And I remember that by the time I was done putting together the site. I had no idea how successful it could be. And I was actually thinking that after day in and day out. I had a different idea that I wanted to do, and I was going to scrap it after that. So I'm happy that I didn't do that. So I think that it's more like how you spend your time doing stuff type of question, or type of answer than like something that I've learned specifically from college.
我记得当我建好网站后，我真的是每天都在思考。等我有了新点子想去实践，我就把这网站丢弃不管了。现在我很庆幸当初没那么干。所以我觉得这个问题的关键更像是在于你如何支配自己的时间去做各种事情,而不是在于我在大学里学到什么具体的技能。

I made a ton of random things when I was at Harvard and most of them no one ever saw. A lot of them just weren't meant for other people to see. And there are thing that I made for myself because I thought they'll be cool. I used to make stuff like the natural language interface to play my MP3s. Or a thing I made before, this was a Hot or Not program out of everyone's IDs at Harvard, that almost got me kicked out.
我在哈佛的时候编了很多各式各样的程序，大多数都没有人见过，因为那都是为我自己做的，我为自己编程序，因为我觉得那很有意思。我为我的MP3做了一个自然语言界面，之前还用哈佛每个人的ID做过一个类似Hot or Not的网站，我因此差点被哈佛开除。

So I don't know, I actually spent a long time making random stuff. I think that that definitely made it. So by the time it came, more like, by the time I came to meet this random project. I was pretty well tuned toward making that, you know in terms of managing this whole process, nothing. Like I have no idea what I'm doing, you know.
我真的花了很多时间编各种奇怪的程序。这对我后来做的事很有帮助。当这个奇怪的点子冒出来的时候，我已经准备得比较充分，可以实现它了。但说到怎么规划这整个的过程，我没想过，我都是想到什么干什么。
