1
I am so proud of each and every one of you.
2
We are here today because every single one of you stood tall and said yes we can.
3
Yes we can learn, yes we can succeed.
4
You decided you would not be defined by where you come from but by where you want to go, what you want to achieve,
5
by the dreams you hope to fulfilled.
6
For we gather here tonight in times when the very foundations of our lives,
7
the old order has been shaken, the old ideas and institutions have crumbled,
8
and a new generation is called upon to remake the world.
9
And let me be clear, when I say young, I'm not just referring to the date of your birth certificate.
10
I'm talking about an approach to life, a quality of mind and a quality of heart.
11
We need people like you to step up.
12
We need your daring, we need your enthusiasm, we need your energy, we need your imagination.
13
A willingness to follow your passions regardless of whether they lead to fortune and fame.
14
A willingness to question conventional wisdom and rethink old Douglas.
15
A lack of regard for all the traditional markers of status and prestige,
16
and a commitment instead to doing what's meaningful to you, what helps others, what makes a difference in this world.
17
We're engaged in two wars, a struggle against terrorism.
18
The threats of climate change,
19
nuclear proliferation, the pandemic, defy national boundaries and easy solutions.
20
For many of you, these challenges are also felt in more personal terms.
21
Perhaps you're still looking for a job.
22
You're struggling to figure out what career path makes sense.
23
Now, in the face of these challenges,
24
it may be tempting to fall back on the formulas for success that have been peddled so frequently in recent years.
25
It goes something like this.
26
We too often let the external, the material things serve as indicators that we're doing well,
27
even though something inside us tells us that we're not doing our best.
28
That we're avoiding that which is hard, but also necessary.
29
That we're shrinking from, rather than rising to, the challenges of the age.
30
And the thing is, in this new hyper-competitive age, none of us, none of us can afford to be complacent.
31
That's true whatever profession you choose.
32
Professors might earn the distinction of tenure, but that doesn't guarantee that they'll put in the long hours
33
and late nights and have the passion and the drive to be great educators.
34
The same principle is true in your personal life.
35
Being a parent is not just a matter of paying the bills, doing the bare minimum.
36
It's not just bringing a child into the world that matters,
37
but the acts of love and sacrifice it takes to raise and educate that child and give them opportunity.
38
I'm standing here as president because of the education that I received.
39
I know it's not always easy to do well in school.
40
I know a lot of you have challenges in your lives right now.
41
I get it.
42
I know what it's like.
43
My father left my family when I was two years old.
44
And I was raised by a single mom who had to work
45
and who struggled at times to pay the bills and wasn't always able to give us the things that other kids had.
46
There were times when I missed having a father in my life.
47
There were times when I was lonely and I felt like I didn't fit in.
48
So I wasn't always as focused as I should have been on school.
49
And I did some things that I'm not proud of.
50
And I got in more trouble than I should have.
51
My life could have easily taken a turn for the worse.
52
But my mother, my grandparents, they pushed me to excel.
53
But I was lucky.
54
I got a lot of second chances, and I had the opportunity to go to college and law school and follow my dreams.
55
You can't let the past get you down.
56
You have to let it motivate you.
57
Everybody here has got a unique story like that to tell.
58
Each of you knows what it took for you to get here.
59
But in reaching this milestone, there's a common lesson shared by every graduate in this hall.
60
It's not where you are, or what you are, it's who you are.
61
Because life will throw some things at you.
62
Truth is, not a single one of the graduates here today has had his easy.
63
Not a single one of you had anything handed to you on a silver crown.
64
You had to work for it.
65
You had to earn it.
66
Most of all, you had to believe in yourselves.
67
Yes, you've always been underdogs.
68
Nobody's handed you a thing.
69
But that also means that whatever you accomplish in your life, you will have earned it.
70
Whatever rewards and joys you reap, you'll appreciate them that much more because they will have come to your own sweat antiques.
71
Products of your own effort and your own talents.
72
You've shown more grit and determination in your childhoods than a lot of adults ever will.
73
That's who you are.
74
We need everyone to broaden their ideas about what is possible.
75
We need parents, politicians, and the media to see how success is possible.
76
How success is happening every day.
77
So that's why I came here today.
78
Because if success can happen here, you have everything you need to get started.
79
You've got no excuses.
80
You have no excuses not to change the world.
81
Did you study business?
82
Go start a company.
83
Or why not help a struggling not-for-profit find better, more effective ways to serve folks in need?
84
You study nursing?
85
Go understaff clinics and hospitals across this country are desperate for your help.
86
You study education?
87
Teach in a high-needs school where the kids really need you.
88
Give a chance to kids who can't get everything they need maybe in their neighborhood, maybe not even in their home,
89
but we can't afford to give up on them.
90
Prepare them to compete for any job anywhere in the world.
91
We study engineering, help us lead a green revolution,
92
developing new sources of clean energy that will power our economy and preserve our planet.
93
Find somebody to be successful for.
94
Raise their hopes.
95
Rise to their needs.
96
That's what's made a difference in our lives, and it's going to make an even greater difference in your lives.
97
Not just for your own success.
98
Because we live in a new world now.
99
The hard road does not end here.
100
Your journey has just begun.
101
It won't protect you against every setback or challenge or mistake.
102
You'll make some, I promise.
103
You're going to have to keep working hard.
104
You're going to have to keep pushing yourselves.
105
And you'll find yourself sometime in situations where folks have had an easier time.
106
They're a little bit ahead of you and you're going to have to work harder than that.
107
And you may be frustrated by that.
108
You may have setbacks and you may have failures, but you're not done.
109
You're not even getting started.
110
And if you ever forget that, just look to history.
111
Colonel Sanders didn't open up his first Kentucky Fried Chicken until he was in his 60s.
112
Winston Churchill was dismissed as little more than a has-been who
113
enjoyed scotch a little bit too much before he took over as Prime Minister and saw Great Britain through its finest hour.
114
When you read a great story, or you learn about an important moment in history,
115
it helps you imagine what it would be like to walk in somebody else's shoes, to know their struggles.
116
Each of them, at one point in their life, didn't have any title or much status to speak of. But they had passion.
117
A commitment to following that passion wherever it would lead, into working hard every step along the way.
118
But if you do push yourselves, and you build on what you've already accomplished here, then I couldn't be more pounter about your futures.
119
I'm hopeful and I'm excited about what all of you do.
120
And I know that armed with the skills and experience and love that you've gained, you're ready to make your mark on the board.
121
Thank you.
122
Thanks for inspiring me.
123
I know starting your careers in troubled times is a challenge, but it is also a privilege.
124
Because it's moments like these that force us to try harder
125
and dig deeper and to discover gifts we never knew we had.
126
To find the greatness that lies within each of us.
127
So don't ever shy away from that endeavor.
128
I can promise that you will be the better for that continued effort.
129
Congratulations.
130
God bless you.

Phương Pháp Shadowing Là Gì?

Shadowing là kỹ thuật học ngôn ngữ có cơ sở khoa học, ban đầu được phát triển cho chương trình đào tạo phiên dịch viên chuyên nghiệp và được phổ biến rộng rãi bởi nhà đa ngôn ngữ học Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Nguyên lý cốt lõi đơn giản nhưng cực kỳ hiệu quả: bạn nghe tiếng Anh của người bản xứ và lặp lại to ngay lập tức — như một "cái bóng" (shadow) đuổi theo người nói với độ trễ chỉ 1–2 giây. Khác với luyện ngữ pháp hay học từ vựng bị động, Shadowing buộc não bộ và cơ miệng phải đồng thời xử lý và tái tạo ngôn ngữ thực tế. Các nghiên cứu khoa học xác nhận phương pháp này cải thiện đáng kể phát âm, ngữ điệu, nhịp điệu, nối âm, kỹ năng nghe và độ lưu loát khi nói — đặc biệt hiệu quả cho người luyện IELTS Speaking và muốn giao tiếp tiếng Anh tự nhiên như người bản ngữ.
