1
Hi, I'm Taylor.
2
Last time I was in a stadium this size I was dancing in heels and wearing a glittery leotard.
3
This outfit is much more comfortable.
4
I would like to say a huge thank you to NYU's Chairman of the Board of Trustees,
5
Bill Berkeley, and all the trustees and members of the board,
6
NYU's President Andrew Hamilton, Provost Catherine Fleming,
7
and the faculty and alumni here today who have made this day possible.
8
I feel so proud to share this day with my fellow honorees, Susan Hawkfield
9
and Felix Matos Rodriguez who humble me with the ways
10
they improve our world with their work as for me
11
I'm 90 % sure the main reason I'm here is
12
because I have a song called 22
13
and let me just say
14
I am elated to be here with you today as we celebrate and graduate
15
New York University's class of 2022.
16
Not a single one of us here today has done it alone.
17
We are each a patchwork quilt of those who have loved us, those who have believed in our futures,
18
those who showed us empathy and kindness or told us the truth even when it wasn't easy to hear.
19
Those who told us we could do it when there was absolutely no proof of that.
20
Someone read stories to you and taught you to dream
21
and offered up some moral code of right and wrong for you to try and live by.
22
Someone tried their best to explain every concept in this insanely complex world to the child
23
that was you as you asked a bazillion questions like how does the moon work
24
and why can we eat salad but not grass and maybe they didn't do it perfectly no one ever can
25
maybe they aren't with us anymore in that case I hope you'll remember them today.
26
If they are in this stadium, I hope you'll find your own way to express your gratitude for all the steps
27
and missteps that have led us to this common destination.
28
I know that words are supposed to be my thing,
29
but I will never be able to find and the words to thank my mom and dad,
30
my brother Austin, for the sacrifices they made every day so I could go from singing in coffee houses
31
to standing up here with you all today because no words would ever be enough.
32
To all the incredible parents, family members, mentors, teachers, allies,
33
friends and loved ones here today today who have supported these students in their pursuit of educational enrichment.
34
Let me say to you now, welcome to New York, it's been waiting for you.
35
I'd like to thank NYU for making me,
36
technically, on paper at least, a doctor.
37
not the type of doctor you would want around in case of an emergency unless your specific emergency was
38
that you desperately needed to hear a song with a catchy hook
39
and an intensely cathartic bridge section or if your emergency was
40
that you needed a person who can name over 50 breeds of cats in one minute.
41
I never got to have a normal college experience per se.
42
I went to public high school until 10th grade
43
and then finished my education doing home school work on the floors of airport terminals.
44
Then I went out on the road for a radio tour, which sounds incredibly glamorous, but in reality,
45
it consisted of a rental car, motels, and my mom
46
and I pretending to have loud mother -daughter fights with each other during boarding
47
so no one would want the empty seat between us on Southwest.
48
best.
49
As a kid, I always thought I would go away to college, imagining the posters I would hang on the wall of my freshman dorm.
50
I even set the ending of my music video from my song
51
Love Story at my fantasy imaginary college, where I meet a male model reading a book on the grass
52
and with one single glance we realized we had been in love in our past lives.
53
Which is exactly what you guys all experienced at some point in the last four years, right?
54
But I really can't complain about not having a normal college experience to you
55
because you went to nyu during a global pandemic being essentially locked into your dorms
56
and having to do classes over zoom everyone in college during normal times
57
stresses about test scores but on top of that you also had to pass like a thousand covid tests
58
I imagine the idea of a normal college experience was all you wanted to,
59
but in this case you and I both learned
60
that you don't always get all the things in the bag
61
that you selected from the menu in the delivery surface that is life.
62
You get what you get
63
and as I would like to say to you wholeheartedly you should be very proud of what you've done with it.
64
Today you leave
65
New York University and then go out into the world searching what's next and so will I.
66
So, as a rule, I try not to give anyone unsolicited advice unless they ask for it.
67
I'll go into this more later.
68
I guess I have been officially solicited in this situation to impart whatever wisdom
69
I might have to tell you things that have helped me so far in my life.
70
Please bear in mind that I in no way feel qualified to tell you what to do.
71
You've worked and struggled and sacrificed and studied and dreamed your way here today and so you know what you're doing.
72
You'll do things differently than I did them and for different reasons
73
so i won't tell you what to do because no one likes
74
that i will however give you some life hacks i wish i knew
75
when i was starting out my dreams of a career and navigating life
76
love pressure choices shame hope and friendship the first of which is life can be heavy
77
especially if you try to carry it all at once part of growing up
78
and moving into new chapters of your life is about catch
79
and release what I mean by that is knowing what things to keep
80
and what things to release
81
you can't carry all things all grudges all updates on your
82
ex all enviable promotions your school bully got at the hedge fund his uncle started.
83
Decide what is yours to hold and let the rest go.
84
Oftentimes the good things in your life are lighter anyway so there's more room for them.
85
One toxic relationship can outweigh so many wonderful simple joys.
86
You get to pick what your life has time and room for. Be discerning.
87
Secondly, learn to live alongside cringe.
88
No matter how hard you try to avoid being cringe, you will look
89
Look back on your life and cringe retrospectively.
90
Cringe is unavoidable over a lifetime.
91
Even the term cringe might someday be deemed cringe.
92
I promise you, you're probably doing or wearing something right now that you will look back on later and find revolting and hilarious.
93
You can't avoid it, so don't try to.
94
For example, I had a phase where, for the entirety of 2012, I dressed like a 1950s housewife.
95
But you know what, I was having fun.
96
Trends and phases are fun.
97
Looking back and laughing is fun.
98
And while we're talking about things that make us squirm but really shouldn't,
99
I'd like to say, I'm a big advocate for not hiding your enthusiasm for things.
100
It seems to me that there is a false stigma around eagerness in our culture of unbothered ambivalence.
101
This outlook perpetuates the idea that it's not cool to want it.
102
The people who don't try are fundamentally more chic than people who do, and I wouldn't know because I've been a lot of things,
103
but I've never been an expert on chic, but I'm the one who's up here, so you have to listen to me when I say this.
104
never be ashamed of trying effortlessness is a myth the people who wanted
105
it the least were the ones I wanted to date
106
and be friends with in high school the people who want
107
it the most are the people I now hire to work for my company
108
I started writing songs when I was 12
109
and since then it's been the compass guiding my life and in turn my life guided my writing.
110
Everything I do is just an extension of my writing whether it's directing videos or a short film, creating the visuals for a tour,
111
or standing on a stage performing.
112
Everything Everything is connected by my love of the craft,
113
the thrill of working through ideas and narrowing them down and polishing it all up in the end,
114
editing, waking up in the middle of the night, throwing out the old idea because you just thought of a new
115
or better one or a plot device that ties the whole thing together.
116
There's a reason they call it a hook.
117
Sometimes a string of words just ensnares me and I can't focus on anything until it's been recorded or written down.
118
As a songwriter, I've never been able to sit still or stay in one creative place for too long.
119
I've made and released 11 albums, and in the process, I've switched genre from country to pop to alternative to folk,
120
and this might sound like a very songwriter centric line of discussion.
121
But in a way, I really do think we are all writers.
122
And most of us write in a different voice for different situations.
123
You write differently in your Instagram stories than you do your senior thesis.
124
You send a different type of email to your boss than you do your best friend from home.
125
We are all literary chameleons
126
and I think it's fascinating it's just a continuation of the idea
127
that we are so many things all the time
128
and I know it can be really overwhelming figuring out who to be
129
and when who you are now
130
and how to act in order to get where you want to go
131
I have some good news it's totally up to you I have some terrifying news.
132
It's totally up to you.
133
I said to you earlier that I don't ever offer advice unless someone asks me for it, and now I'll tell you why.
134
As a person who started my very public career at the age of 15, it came with a price,
135
and that price was years of unsolicited advice.
136
Being the youngest person in every room for over a decade meant that I was constantly
137
being issued warnings from older members of the music industry,
138
media, interviewers, executives, and this advice often presented itself as the thinly veiled warnings.
139
See, I was a teenager at a time
140
when our society was absolutely obsessed with the idea of having perfect young female role models.
141
It felt like every interview I did included slight barbs by the interviewer about me one day running off the rails.
142
And And that meant a different thing to every person who said it to me.
143
So I became a young adult while being fed the message that if I didn't make any mistakes,
144
all the children of America would grow up to be perfect angels.
145
However, if I did slip up, the entire earth would fall off its axis
146
and it would be entirely my fault and I would go to pop star jail forever and ever.
147
It was all centered around the idea that mistakes equal failure
148
and ultimately the loss of any chance at a happy or rewarding life.
149
This has not been my experience.
150
My experience has been that my mistakes led to the best things in my life
151
and being embarrassed when you mess up it's part of the human experience getting back up
152
dusting yourself off and seeing who still wants to hang out with you afterward
153
and laugh about it that's a gift the times I was told no or wasn't included.
154
Wasn't chosen, didn't win, didn't make the cut.
155
Looking back, it really feels like those moments were as important, if not more crucial, than the moments I was told yes.
156
Not being invited to the parties and sleepovers in my hometown made me feel hopelessly lonely.
157
But because I felt alone, I would sit in my room and write the songs that would get me a ticket somewhere else.
158
Having label executives in Nashville tell me
159
that only 35 year old housewives listen to country music
160
and there was no place for a 13 year old on
161
their roster made me cry in the car on the way home.
162
But then I'd post my songs on my myspace and yes myspace
163
and I would message with other teenagers like me who loved country music
164
but just didn't have anyone singing from their perspective having journalists
165
write in -depth oftentimes critical pieces about who they perceive me
166
to be made me feel like I was living in some weird simulation
167
but it also made me look inward to learn about who I actually am
168
having the world treat my love life like a spectator sport in
169
which I lose every single game was not a great way to date in my teens
170
and 20s but it taught me to protect my private life fiercely being publicly humiliated over
171
and over again at a young age was excruciatingly painful, but it forced me to devalue the ridiculous notion of minute -by -minute,
172
ever -fluctuating social relevance and likability.
173
Getting canceled on the internet, and nearly losing my career, gave me an excellent knowledge of all the types of wine.
174
i know i sound like a consummate optimist but i'm really not i lose perspective all the time
175
sometimes everything just feels completely pointless i know the pressure of living your life through the lens of perfectionism.
176
And I know that I'm talking to a group of perfectionists because you are here today, graduating from NYU.
177
So this might be hard for you to hear.
178
In your life, you will inevitably misspeak,
179
trust the wrong person underreact overreact hurt the people who didn't deserve it overthink not think at all
180
self -sabotage, create a reality where only your experience exists, ruin perfectly good moments for yourself and others,
181
deny any wrongdoing, not take the steps to make it right, feel very guilty, let the guilt eat at you,
182
hit rock bottom, finally address the pain you caused, try to do better next time.
183
Rinse, repeat.
184
And I'm not gonna lie, these mistakes will cause you to lose things.
185
I'm trying to tell you that losing things doesn't just mean losing.
186
A lot of the time when When we lose things, we gain things too.
187
Now you leave the structure and framework of school and chart your own path.
188
Every choice you make leads to the next choice, which leads to the next, and I know it's hard to know which path to take.
189
There will be times in life where you need to stand up for yourself.
190
Times when the right thing is actually to back down and apologize.
191
times when the right thing is to fight times
192
when the right thing is to turn
193
and run times to hold on with all you have
194
and times to let go with grace
195
sometimes the right thing to do is to throw out the old schools of thought in the name of progress
196
and reform sometimes the right thing to do is to sit
197
and listen to the wisdom of those who have come before
198
us how will you know what the right choice is in these crucial moments
199
you won't how do I give advice to this many people about their life choices
200
I won't the scary news is you're on your own now but the cool news is you're on your own now
201
I leave you with this.
202
We are led by our gut instincts, our intuition, our desires and fears, our scars and our dreams.
203
And you will screw it up sometimes.
204
So will I.
205
And when I do, you will most likely read about it on the internet.
206
Anyway, hard things will happen to us.
207
We will recover.
208
We will learn from it we will grow more resilient
209
because of it
210
and as long as we are fortunate enough to be breathing
211
we will breathe in breathe through breathe deep breathe out
212
and I am a doctor now
213
so I know how breathing works I hope you know how proud I am to share this day with you.
214
We're doing this together, so let's just keep dancing like we're the class of 22.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
