財(cái)富精英勵(lì)志演講 第27期:拉里·佩奇：夢(mèng)想的力量(4)

[00:01.11]I had one of those dreams when I was 23. 我23歲的時(shí)候,就做過一個(gè)那樣的夢(mèng)。 [00:02.48]When I suddenly woke up, 我猛然驚醒, [00:05.07]I was thinking: What if we could download the whole web, and just keep the links? 想著:如果我們能把整個(gè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)下載下來,但僅保存鏈接會(huì)怎樣? [00:09.56]And I grabbed a pen andstarted writing! 然后我抓起一支筆寫了起來。 [00:12.58]Sometimes it’s important to wake up and stop dreaming. 有時(shí)候別做夢(mèng),及時(shí)醒來是非常重要的。 [00:17.24]I spent the middle of that night scribbling out the details and convincing myself it would work. 我花了一個(gè)午夜描畫出細(xì)節(jié),并確信那是可以做得到的。 [00:23.08]Soon after, I told my advisor, Terry Winograd, 不久后,我告訴我的導(dǎo)師特里·溫諾格拉德 [00:27.06]it would take a couple of weeks for me to download the web 那要花幾周時(shí)間來下載整個(gè)網(wǎng)絡(luò)—— [00:30.11]he nodded knowingly, fully aware it would take much longer but wise enough not to tell me. 他只是會(huì)意地點(diǎn)點(diǎn)頭,他完全知道要花的時(shí)間其實(shí)長(zhǎng)得多,但他很睿智,并沒有告訴我。 [00:38.35]The optimism of youth is often underrated! 年輕人的樂觀精神通常不可低估! [00:41.48]Amazingly, at that time, I have no thoughts of building a search engine. 令人驚訝的是,我當(dāng)時(shí)沒有想過要造一個(gè)搜索引擎。 [00:45.56]The idea wasn’t even on the radar. 這一概念甚至沒有進(jìn)入我腦海。 [00:47.49]But, much later we happened upon a better way of ranking and we made a really great search engine, 但很久以后,我們突然找到更好排列網(wǎng)頁的方法,并造出一個(gè)非常好的搜索引擎 [00:54.16]and Google was born. 谷歌就這樣誕生了。 [00:56.19]When a really great dream shows up, grab it! 當(dāng)偉大的夢(mèng)想閃現(xiàn)時(shí),抓住它吧! [01:02.28]When I was here at Michigan, I had actually been taught how to make dreams real! 我在密歇根大學(xué)上學(xué)時(shí),其實(shí)就學(xué)過如何實(shí)現(xiàn)夢(mèng)想。 [01:14.52]I know it sounds funny, 我知道這聽起來很可笑, [01:16.22]but that is what I learned in a summer camp converted into a training program called Leadershape. 但那是我從一個(gè)由夏令營(yíng)轉(zhuǎn)化而來的名為“塑造領(lǐng)袖”的培訓(xùn)項(xiàng)目中學(xué)到的。 [01:26.35]Their slogan is to" have a healthy disregard for the impossible”. 該項(xiàng)目的口號(hào)就是“理性地藐視不可能”。 [01:31.06]That program encouraged me to pursue a crazy idea at the time: 那個(gè)項(xiàng)目激勵(lì)著我追尋那時(shí)一個(gè)瘋狂的想法: [01:35.26]I wanted to build a personal rapid transit system on campus to replace the buses. 我想在校園內(nèi)建立一套個(gè)人快速交通系統(tǒng)以代替公交。 [01:42.57]You're still working on that I heard. 聽說你們正在考慮這個(gè)? [01:45.09]It was a futuristic way of solving our transportation problem. 這是未來解決交通問題的方式。 [01:51.37]I still think a lot about transportation—you never loose a dream, it just incubates as a hobby. 我直到現(xiàn)在還在思考很多有關(guān)交通的問題—你永不要放走夢(mèng)想,而要把它當(dāng)作一種習(xí)慣去培育。 [01:59.37]Many things people labor hard to do now, 現(xiàn)在人們花很大力氣干的很多事情, [02:01.54]like cooking, cleaning, and driving will require much less human time in the future. 如做飯、清潔、駕駛,以后只會(huì)占用人們更少的時(shí)間。 [02:08.26]That is, if we “have a healthy disregard for the impossible” and actually build the solutions. 也就是說,如果我們“理性地藐視不可能”,并確實(shí)找到新的解決方案的話。
