0编辑这一集的时候感觉坐上了时空穿梭机
回到了2021年剑桥的冬天
和那个迷茫的自己面对面聊着
“你觉得上剑桥有什么好处？”
因为视频时间比较久远
音质也比较复古
祝大家听的开心！

Guys I just have to talk about it real quick
朋友们 我必须跟大家说道说道
I came up with this idea five minutes ago
这个想法是我五分钟之前想到的
and it's mind blowing
真的颠覆了我的认知
So basically when I first came to Cambridge
刚到剑桥的时候
I didn't really know
我并不是很清楚
what is the biggest benefit I can get from coming here
来剑桥能给我带来的最大的好处是什么
Cuz it's not going to give me a huge advantage in job market
既不能让我在求职中有非常大的优势
and it's not going to improve my intelligence that much
也不能让我智力得到很大的提升
Cuz it's just a one-year program
毕竟只是一年的硕士
However, five minutes ago I just realized that
但是五分钟前 我意识到
the biggest benefit I can get is that
来剑桥最大的好处是
it helps me to stop questioning myself
我不再自我怀疑
and to stop finding excuses from the outside
不再从外部找借口
I know it sounds a bit abstract
我知道这听起来有点抽象
Let me explain here
让我来解释一下
So basically there are four types of people in Cambridge
在剑桥（或者其他名校）你身边的人大概分为四种
the super smart ones
聪明绝顶的
the super rich ones
家财万贯的
the super well-connected ones
权势滔天的
and the super lucky ones as me
还有和我一样踩狗屎运的
So when I come here, of course I make friends with them
我来到剑桥之后 当然就会跟这四类人做朋友
and I have conversations with them
然后跟他们聊天
And as the conversation goes deeper
随着聊天的深入
I start to realize that those people
我发现他们
those super smart, super rich, super well-connected, super lucky people
那些聪明、富有、有关系、幸运的人
they have the same problem as me
和我有一样的烦恼
They may be stuck in a subject that they don't really like
他们可能也在学一门自己并不喜欢的学科
or they messed up with their projects
或者搞砸了自己的项目
or they're just confused about their future
或者对未来很迷茫
You know they don't know what to do in the future
不知道自己今后要干什么
And these are the exact problems that I'm having right now
这些不正是我现在的烦恼吗
I've been having really shitty days recently
俺最近实在有些不好过
My project went wrong
正在做的项目出了问题
Everything is messed up
其他事情也堆在一起
I start to have thoughts that
我就开始“畅想”
Well, what if my family is very rich
如果我家超级有钱
so they don't care if I get a job or not
我找不找工作都无所谓
so I don't have to work that hard now
这样我现在就不用这么努力了
or what if my family is super connected
或者如果我家是关系户
they can find me a job after I graduated, whatever
毕业了之后怎么着也可以帮我找到工作
or just if I am super smart that I can work out my problem
又或者我变得更聪明一点
that I can solve the problem that I'm facing right now
能够轻松解决我现在面对的问题
But after having conversations with my friends in Cambridge
但是在跟剑桥的朋友们聊天之后
I start to realize that
我意识到
all these excuses from the outside is not the solution to my problem
这些外在的理由都不是解决问题的方法
If I cause the problem I should be the one to solve the problem
解铃还须系铃人
It's not money
能解决问题的不是钱
It's not a smart mind
不是一颗绝顶聪明的脑瓜
It's not resources
也不是后台关系
It's just me
而是我自己
And I should have faith in myself that I can solve the problem
并且我应该对自己有足够的信心
Yeah that's just magical
真的很神奇
You know these just suddenly give me the faith to deal with the mess that I'm facing right now
这个想法突然就给了我面对一团糟的生活的信念
give me the courage to work on everything instead of trying to find excuses
给了我努力解决问题的勇气 不再从外部找借口
Yeah that's what I learn today
这是我今天学到的
And I just want to share with you guys
就是想跟大家分享一下
And I have to go back to my project now
我要继续肝项目了
Bye~
拜拜ヾ(•ω•`)o
