 追梦 CHASING AFTER YOUR DREAM

Dreams! How nice do they sound? I am not talking about the dreams we have when we are asleep but about the life long aspirations in each one of us. I am sure many or rather should I say all of us have goals in our lives. It could be the goal to be the next millionaire or to be a popular celebrity. Even if your goal is something small, you should be proud that you do have a goal.

Some never tend to think about goals in life. Although this may sound as a surprise it is true. These people take life as it comes without planning and go with the flow of events in their life. But again there are many who love planning for everything in their life.

In fact, having a goal in life would make anyone more focused and determined in reaching that target. Wish to get a job as a web designer? Your dream can come true if you work on your dream. How, you might ask? Start learning web-designing skills and when you're skilled, you will find that you can get your desired job easily. So, do you see that all it takes for your goals to materialize is some work on your part? I have often heard some grumble that their dreams are just dreams and can never become true. Well, it all depends on what kind of goals you're aiming at. If you're dying to be the next star in Hollywood but you're camera-shy and you don't know anything about acting, your dream to make it big in Hollywood might remain as a dream. But if you're very determined to make it and you're already enrolling yourself in acting classes and talking to experienced actors about acting, you can be pretty sure that you're already half-way there to make your dream into a reality. After all, if one is willing to put in the efforts, their goals can become within reach.

So never say that your dream will forever be a dream. Go ahead, plan on making that dream a reality and watch how easily you can attain that target.

Good luck.

【参考译文】

梦啊!听起来有美?我这里说的不是我们睡觉时做的梦,而是指我偿每个人心中一生的渴望。我肯定很多人,或者说每个人,都有自己的人生目标。这个目标也许是成为下个百万富翁,也许是成为炙手可热的名人。即使你的目标很小,你也该因为自己有目标而感到自豪。

有些人从来不考虑生活目标。也许这听起来有点意外,但这是真的。这种人的生活没有计划,顺其自然,随着生活中发生的事走。但另外很多人则把生活里的每件事都安排得周周到到。

事实上,拥有一个目标可以使人更专注更坚定地去实现它。想做网页设计师吗?只要你朝你的梦想努力,它就可以实现。你也许会问:怎么实现?开始学习网页设计的技术,当你技术熟练后,你就会发现得到梦想的工作并不难。现在你明白了吗?要实现你的目标你就要作出一些努力。我经常听有人报怨说他们的梦想只是一个梦,从来就不可能会实现。当然,还要看你的目标是什么。如果你想成为好莱坞下个明星都想疯了,但是你在镜头面前害羞,对演戏一窍不通,那么你想在好莱坞混出头的梦想只能是个梦。但是如果你下决心要实现它,而且还报名参加表演班的学习,跟有经验的演员讨教如何演戏,那么你很有可能正在实现梦想的路上。说到底,只要一个人愿意努力,他们就有可能实现自己的目标。

所以不要说你的梦想永远都只是个梦。行动起来,列出实现梦想的计划,你就会发现达成目标多么的容易。

祝你好运。


【人生启迪】

人人都有梦想,可为什么不是每个人都能美梦成真呢?答案很简单,因为不是每个人都行动了。不论你想实现梦想的意愿多么强烈,不论你一天重复憧憬多少次,除非你开始行动,不然你的梦想永远的只能是梦而已。
