I'd like to say, I'm a big advocate for not hiding your enthusiasm for things.
我想說，我非常主張不要掩飾自己對事物的熱情。
100
It seems to me that there is a false stigma around eagerness in our culture of unbothered ambivalence.
在我看來，在我們這種推崇冷淡疏離、毫不在意的文化裡，人們對積極主動的態度存在一種毫無道理的偏見。
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,
那些從不刻意去追求的人，從根本上就比那些汲汲營營的人更有格調，而我之所以不懂這種感覺，是因為我這輩子一直都在嘗試做各種各樣的事。

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.

I started writing songs when I was 12
我十二歲的時候開始寫歌。
109
and since then it's been the compass guiding my life and in turn my life guided my writing.
從那以後，它就成了指引我人生的指南針，而我的人生又反過來指引著我的寫作。
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,
我做的所有事情，無論是執導影片或短片，還是為巡演設計視覺效果，都只是我寫作的延伸。
111
or standing on a stage performing.

113
the thrill of working through ideas and narrowing them down and polishing it all up in the end,
那種反覆推敲想法、逐步篩選、最終打磨完善的興奮感，
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

118
As a songwriter, I've never been able to sit still or stay in one creative place for too long.
作為一名詞曲作者，我從來都坐不住，也無法長時間停留在同一種創作狀態裡。
119
I've made and released 11 albums, and in the process, I've switched genre from country to pop to alternative to folk,
我已經制作併發行了11張專輯，在此過程中，我的音樂風格從鄉村音樂轉向流行音樂，再轉向另類音樂，最後轉向民謠。
120
and this might sound like a very songwriter centric line of discussion.
這聽起來可能是一種非常以詞曲作者為中心的討論思路。
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.

什麼是跟讀法？
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧，最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓，並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大：您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同，跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性，語調，節奏，連讀，聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
