Youcan'tdoallthingsatonce;
Youcan'tdoallthingsequallywell;
Youcan'tdoallthingsbetterthaneveryoneelse;
Yourhumanityisshowingjustlikeeveryoneelse's.
我们都知道：
我们不可能成为每个人心中的那个完人；
我们也不可能一下子就完成所有的事业；
我们不可能总比别人强；
其实我们的人性和其他人并无区别
So:
Youhavetofindoutwhoyouare,andbethat;
Youhavetodecidewhatcomesfirst,anddothat;
Youhavetodiscoveryourstrengths,andusethem;
Youhavetolearnnottocompetewithothers,
Becausenooneelseisinthecontestof*beingyou*.
因此：
我们必须发现那个真实的自己，并展现它；
我们必须明确自己的首先任务，并去履行它；
我们必须发现自己的优势，并去利用它；
我们没有必要去和他人相比较，
因为没有人能与你竞争那个“真实的你”。
Then:
Youwillhavelearnedtoacceptyourownuniqueness;
Youwillhavelearnedtosetprioritiesandmakedecisions;
Youwillhavelearnedtolivewithyourlimitations;
Youwillhavelearnedtogiveyourselftherespectthatisdue;
Andyou'llbeamostvitalmortal.
那么：
你将学会接受你自己的唯一性；
你将学会区分事务的重要性，并果断地做出抉择；
你将学会接受自己并非圣人；
你将学会给予你自己应得的尊重；
那么你将会成长为一个优秀的人。
Daretobelieve:
Thatyouareawonderful,uniqueperson;

Thatit'smorethanaright,it'syourduty,tobewhoyouare;
Thatlifeisnotaproblemtosolve,butagifttocherish;
Andyou'llbeabletostayoneuponwhatusedtogetyoudown.
勇敢地相信：
你是出色的，有个性的；
你是这个历史上独一无二的尤物；
做一个真实的自己，这不仅仅是你的权力，它更是你的义务；
生活并不是一个待解决的问题，而是一个需要去珍惜的礼物；
当你遭遇挫折时，你将有能力昂首挺胸力挽狂澜。
