给同学的毕业赠言英语祝福语录(2)

大学毕业后要做的 7 件事 1.Keep in touch with your friends. 1.与朋友保持联络。 The people you spent four or so years with? They're the best friends you'll ever have-trust me on this. Send cards for birthdays, set up Skype dates, and travel to see one another. It's hard making friends without the wonderful, semi-artificial environment of college, and having a support network is one of the most important things when you're stepping out on your own. 与你共度大学四年时光的人是你所拥有的最好的朋友，这一点你得相信 我。我们可以互相寄送生日卡片，约好时间用网络电话沟通交流，旅行去看 望彼此。离开了大学那种令人愉快的半人工环境，我们不容易交上朋友，而 拥有社会支持网络是你独自迈出校园时最重要的事情之一。 2.But make an effort to meet new people. 2.努力结识新朋友。 Most of us recent grads don't live in the same cities as our friends. Go to networking events, go to meetings. (I met one of my friends when we were leaving a Junior League interest meeting, even though neither of us ended up joining.) Become accustomed to carrying on real conversation with new acquaintances-it'll help you both socially and professionally. 大多数像我们这样刚毕业的大学生，不与朋友居住在同一座城市。那就 去参加社交活动，去聚会吧。(我跟一个朋友是在离开少年联盟兴趣交流会上 认识的，尽管我们最终都没有加入那个联盟。)习惯于与新结识的人进行有效 的谈话，会在社交领域和专业领域对你有所帮助。 3.Don't let weddings get to you. 3.不要让婚礼影响你的情绪。 It's tough. Weddings bring up a lot of questions about our own love lives; whether you're single and looking, in a relationship and waiting for the proposal, or just disgruntled over weddings, there's no avoiding weddings or marriage. Get used to it now, because soon you'll be attending a lot of these gatherings. Be happy for your friends, and either learn to be content with your own situation or do something about it! 这个问题很难办。婚礼会给我们自己的恋爱生活带来很多问题;不论你是 单身仍在寻觅，还是正在恋爱等待求婚，或者正因婚礼的事儿而有所不满， 我们总避免不了婚礼或是谈婚论嫁这个话题。适应它吧，因为不久你就会参 加许许多多这样的场合。为你的朋友而高兴吧，要么学会满足于自己的现状 ， 要么就为了结婚做点什么吧! 4.Learn how to manage your finances. 4.学会管理财务。 If you're clueless about basic budgets, start educating yourself. The one thing missing from most college educations is personal finance, but this is the probably the single most important thing you need to survive. 如果你对基本的预算一无所知，那么开始自我学习吧。大多数大学 教育 所遗漏的一点就是个人财务知识，但这大概也是你为了生存所需的最重要的 东西。 5.Buy a real wardrobe. 5.购买正牌行头。 If you've played your cards right and allocated money in your budget just for shopping, start saving for classic, timeless items. One $300 wool coat in a neutral color with good stitching and construction might give you some sticker shock, but it's a far more savvy purchase than five $60 cheaply-made coats of synthetic materials. 如果你一直处理得当，并在预算中只留出购物的钱，那么你要开始存钱 买些经典、不过时的衣服了。或许你在看到一件售价 300 美元、色彩素净、 款式剪裁精致的羊毛大衣时有点震惊，但是这比购买 5 件售价 60 美元、用 合成材料制成的廉价外套要理性得多。 6.Find something else to do with your time. 6.花时间找点其他的事情做。 Work may give you the resources you need to clothe and feed yourself, but let's face it-it's unlikely to fulfill you in every way. What should you do instead? Join an organization or a young professionals club, volunteer your time, or find a pet project that sparks your creativity. When you have outside interests, you'll achieve a better balance. 工作可以给你所需的财力满足自己的衣食，但是让我们正视这个问题— —工作不可能在每个方面都能满足你。那么你应该做些什么呢?加入某个组 织或是某个聚集了年轻才俊的俱乐部吧，自愿贡献自己的时间，或者寻找一 个宠物活动来激发你的创造力。当你有了工作之外的爱好时，你就会更好地 平衡自己的生活。 7.Follow your gut. 7.跟着感觉走。 Does a boss seem crazy? Does that guy make you question his intentions? If a decision doesn't feel like the right one, deep down, then it probably isn't. Follow your instinct and let it guide you. It'll help you in the future. 老板是不是看起来很疯狂?那个人是不是让你质疑他的意图?如果某个决 定让人感觉不是那么正确，实际上它大概就是不对的。跟随自己的直觉，让 它来指引你。这会在将来对你有所帮助。 毕业后的生活这样过 Find the Subjects You Are Good At– You probably majored in something you were good at. Find a job that matches your passions and skills. By the way, this is also the work you will enjoy. That one choice will bring you much joy or frustration. 发现你的特长——你的专业很可能是你所擅长的。找一份能发挥你的激 情和技能的工作。这样你就不会为工作所累。这个选择也意味着你以后的工 作是带给你快乐还是沮丧。 Make Decisions– Living life is about making choices. Some are easy and some are hard. But, make sure you make your own decisions or life will make them for you. 做出决定——生命就是不断选择的过程。只不过有些选择是容易的，有 些却很艰难。但是你必须自己做出决定，否则生活就会替你做主。 Have Goals & Write Them Down – There has an undercurrent lately, of advice stating that you shouldn’t have goals. These are the same people who don’t want to fail. Regularly write down your goals. Share them with those that you love. 有目标，并且写下来——最近有种声音建议人们不应该有目标。这是一 群不愿意面对失败的人们。要经常写下你的目标，并与你爱的人一起分享。 Blaze Your Own Path – You don’t have to follow in anyone else’s footsteps. “That’s the way it has always been done” is a dangerous road-sign to follow on the road of life. 活出自己的特色——你没有必要跟随别人的脚步。“大家都是这样做的” ， 这种想法对于你的人生之路是一个危险的信号。 Always Be Learning – You may have just finished school, but don’t think you are done learning. This has never been more important. In just a few short years, there will be entirely new technologies and information that didn’t exist when you were in school. 活到老学到老——你可能已经完成学业，但这并不意味着你已经不用学 习了。这在当今世界尤为重要。最近几年，你将会看到很多学校里没有的全 新的技术和信息。 No One Ever Was Successful Sitting on the Couch– You have to take the first step in your own journey. That new job isn’t going to magically appear. That book isn’t going to write itself. And so on… so, put the remote down and leave the couch. 坐在沙发上永远不会成功——要启程你就必须先迈出第一步。新的工作 不会奇迹般就出现。 书也不会自己就写出来。等等，等等……因此，放下遥 控器，离开沙发，开始努力。 Enjoy the Journey- Too many people think life is a destination. “When I get there… I will be successful.” Life is a trip. Enjoy the journey. There is an end point, but the point is not to get there. 享受过程——很多人认为生活就是目的。“当我到那里时，我就成功 了。” 生命是一场旅行，要学会享受旅程。旅行总会有终点，但那并不是我 们的目的。 Spend Your Time Wisely- As you get into the workplace you will find that you have less “free time” than when you were in school. When you have a family, you will have even more demands on your time.Remember that you have as much time in the day as everyone else, spend it wisely. 合理安排你的时间——当你进入职场以后，你会发现，和在学校相比你 能自由支配的时间少了很多。有家庭以后，会占用你更多的时间。要记住， 每一天你所拥有的时间都和别人一样多，合理安排你的时间。 Don’t Settle– Life is too short to settle in your job or in your relationships. You don’t have to work there. You don’t have to stay in a relationship. 不要太早安定下来——人生很短暂，不要太早就安定下来，无论是工作 还是人际关系。你不一定非要在那里工作，也不一定非要处在那样的人际关 系中。 Believe in Yourself– You have to be you biggest fan. In the workplace, no one is going care about your future more than you. Promote yourself where appropriate, and always believe in yourself even more than others do. 相信自己——无条件的做自己最大的粉丝。在职场没有人比你更关心你 的未来。在合适的时候提升自己的能力，并对自己报以最大的自信。 给大学应届生的 10 个建议 1. Get to Work on Time– Unlike school, you can’t get away with sleeping in and not showing up. It will catch up to you quickly. Being present is the first step to success and the early bird is often rewarded. 按时上班——职场不像学校，在学校即使睡过头或跷课也没什么大不了 的，但上班以后如果你还这么散漫，很快就会受到处罚。按时上班是迈向成 功的第一步，并且记住，早起的鸟儿有虫吃。 2. Do Your Homework – Just because you are out of school doesn’t mean homework ends. There will be times that you have to work outside working hours. Find your balance, but do your work when it is required. 做好功课——离开学校并不意味着就不用做家庭作业了。工作以后，你 会经常面临 8 小时之外还得工作的状况。合理安排你的时间，但是需要加班 时仍要做好你的工作。 3.

If someone tells you otherwise, run the other direction, they are trying to sell you something. 必须完成工作——这里没有捷径可以走，没有每周 4 小时的工作，没有 快速致富的妙计。你必须投入时间。也就是说你必须工作。如果有人跟我说 的不一样甚至相反，他们可能是在试图卖给你什么东西。 5. Bring Your Skills– Just because you are new to the workplace, do not be intimidated. You are bringing skills and knowledge that the workplace is hungry for. Contribute what you can and learn from others that have preceded you. 亮出你的本领——不要仅仅因为你是新来的就有畏惧心理。你身上有职 场需要的技能和知识。尽力为工作付出，并多向前辈学习。 6. Work Hard– Always give your best effort.

If you find yourself in a job where you can’t give your all, it’s time to move on. 努力工作——尽最大的努力工作。你永远也不知道哪份工作会对你未来 的成功产生至关重要的作用，或向你开启机遇之门。如果你觉得现在的工作 不能发挥你的潜力，那么是时候换工作了。 7.

You can sit at home or the office any day. Don’t pass up an opportunity to try a new adventure. 富有冒险精神——要勇于尝试新事物。你可以坐在家里或办公室里消磨 一天又一天。不要放过任何尝试新冒险的机会。 9.
