英语演讲稿励志文章(精选3篇)
尊敬的领导、老师,亲爱的同学们:
大家好!
自信是什么?自信是成功的第一秘诀,它不仅是对自己能力的信任,更是对自己所追求目标的坚定信念。有了它,才能驶向胜利的彼岸。苏格拉底也说:“一个人是否有成就,只要看他是否具有自尊和自信。”总之,自信是指向胜利的导航塔,是前进的不竭动力。
当中国革命处于低潮时,毛泽东坚信“星星之火,可以燎原”;当敌人日搜夜捕,陈毅“屡不得脱”时,他满怀自信,高唱“血雨腥风应有涯”,“人间开遍自由花”!陈毅的《梅岭三章》就是撼人心魄的自信之歌、胜利之歌!著名科学家门捷列夫说得好:“只有自信,才能让人在最佳的心理状态下工作,而不致被怀疑吞食你的想象力”。
自卑却与自信背道而驰。自卑者往往对别人的优点看得过多、过重,而对自己的长处认识不足,只觉得自己什么都不行,又不想去努力赶上,于是沉重的心理压力使这些人唯唯诺诺,裹足不前。自卑者的心理障碍限制了能力的发展,使他们坐失成功的良机,最终一事无成。只要走出了自卑的阴影,迎接我们的就是一片艳阳天。
无论是《千手观音》还是舞动奇迹中的《追光》,演员们都以强者的信念与命运抗争,战胜了自卑,他们震撼的演出博得了观众热烈的掌声,深受人们的喜爱。可见,战胜自卑,培养自信,是我们必然的选择。
自负者与自信者也格格不入。自负与自卑都是极端心理,自负者在取得一些成绩后沾沾自喜,甚至目空一切,妄自尊大。这些人就算是先前取得一些成就,也只是昙花一现。历史上的教训值得我们记取。楚汉相争时,项羽在推翻暴秦的残酷统治的斗争中起了不可低估的作用,但暂时的军事优势使他盲目自负,自封 “霸王”,结果被刘邦打败,昔日不可一视的英雄,落得自刎乌江的下场。从这里我摩恩可以看到,正确估价自己的长处和成绩,正视自己的短处和不足,划清自信与自负的界限,对一个成功者来说真的很重要。
总的来说,在我们的生活学习中,我们要相信自己,却不自负;要正视不足,却不自卑。选择自信,战胜自卑,远离自负,这是新世纪的要求,是追求完美人格的要求。“数风流人物,还看今朝”,毛泽东充满自信的名言,将永远激励我们前进。

It is a commonplace among moralists that you cannot get happiness bypursuing it. This is only true if you pursue it unwisely. Gamblers at MonteCarlo are pursuing money, and most of them lose it instead, but there are otherways of pursuing money which often succeed. So it is with happiness. If youpursue it by means of drink, you are forgetting the hang-over. Epicurus pursuedit by living only in congenial society and eating only dry bread, supplementedby a little cheese on feast days. His method proved successful in his case, buthe was a valetudinarian, and most people would need something more vigorous. Formost people, the pursuit of happiness, unless supplemented in various ways, istoo abstract and theoretical to be adequate as a personal rule of life. But Ithink that whatever personal rule of life you may choose it should not, exceptin rare and heroic cases, be incompatible with happiness.
There are a great many people who have all the material conditions ofhappiness, i.e. health and a sufficient income, and who, nevertheless, areprofoundly unhappy. In such cases it would seem as if the fault must lie with awrong theory as to how to live. In one sense, we may say that any theory as tohow to live is wrong. We imagine ourselves more different from the animals thanwe are. Animals live on impulse, and are happy as long as external conditionsare favorable. If you have a cat it will enjoy life if it has food and warmthand opportunities for an occasional night on the tiles. Your needs are morecomplex than those of your cat, but they still have their basis in instinct. Incivilized societies, especially in English-speaking societies, this is too aptto be forgotten. People propose to themselves some one paramount objective, andrestrain all impulses that do not minister to it. A businessman may be soanxious to grow rich that to this end he sacrifices health and privateaffections. When at last he has become rich, no pleasure remains to him exceptharrying other people by exhortations to imitate his noble example. Many richladies, although nature has not endowed them with any spontaneous pleasure inliterature or art, decide to be thought cultured, and spend boring hourslearning the right thing to say about fashionable new books that are written togive delight, not to afford opportunities for dusty snobbism.
If you look around at the men and women whom you can call happy, you willsee that they all have certain things in common. The most important of thesethings is an activity which at most gradually builds up something that you areglad to see coming into existence. Women who take an instinctive pleasure intheir children can get this kind of satisfaction out of bringing up a family.Artists and authors and men of science get happiness in this way if their ownwork seems good to them. But there are many humbler forms of the same kind ofpleasure. Many men who spend their working life in the city devote theirweekends to voluntary and unremunerated toil in their gardens, and when thespring comes, they experience all the joys of having created beauty.
The whole subject of happiness has, in my opinion, been treated toosolemnly. It had been thought that man cannot be happy without a theory of lifeor a religion. Perhaps those who have been rendered unhappy by a bad theory mayneed a better theory to help them to recovery, just as you may need a tonic whenyou have been ill. But when things are normal a man should be healthy without atonic and happy without a theory. It is the simple things that really matter. Ifa man delights in his wife and children, has success in work, and finds pleasurein the alternation of day and night, spring and autumn, he will be happywhatever his philosophy may be. If, on the other hand, he finds his wifefateful, his childrens noise unendurable, and the office a nightmare; if in thedaytime he longs for night, and at night sighs for the light of day, then whathe needs is not a new philosophy but a new regimen----a different diet, or moreexercise, or what not.
Man is an animal, and his happiness depends on his physiology more than helikes to think. This is a humble conclusion, but I cannot make myself disbelieveit. Unhappy businessmen, I am convinced, would increase their happiness more bywalking six miles every day than by any conceivable change of philosophy.
道德家们常说:幸福靠追求是得不到的。只有用不明智的方式去追求才是这样。蒙特卡洛城的赌徒们追求金钱,但多数人却把钱输掉了,而另外一些追求金钱的办法却常常成功。追求幸福也是一样。如果你通过畅饮来追求幸福,那你就忘记了酒醉后的不适。埃毕丘鲁斯追求幸福的办法是只和志趣相投的人一起生活,只吃不涂黄油的面包,节日才加一点奶酪。他的办法对他来说是成功的,但他是个体弱多病的人,而多数人需要的是精力充沛。就多数人来说,除非你有别的补充办法,这样追求快乐就过于抽象和脱离实际,不宜作为个人的生活准则。不过,我觉得无论你选择什么样的生活准则,除了那些罕见的和英雄人物的例子外,都应该是和幸福相容的。
很多人拥有获得幸福的全部物质条件,即健康的身体和丰足的收入,可是他们非常不快乐。就这种情况来说,似乎问题处在生活理论的错误上。从某种意义上讲,我们可以说任何关于生活的理论都是不正确的。我们和动物的区别并没有我们想象的那么大。动物是凭冲动生活的,只要客观条件有利,它们就会快乐。如果你有一只猫,它只要有东西吃,感到暖和,偶尔晚上得到机会去寻欢,它就会很快活。你的需要比你的猫要复杂一些,但还是以本能为基础的。在文明社会中,特别是在讲英语的社会中,这一点很容易被忘却。人们给自己定下一个最高的目标,对一切不利于实现这一目标的冲动都加以克制。生意人可能因为切望发财以致不惜牺牲健康和爱情。等他终于发了财,他除了苦苦劝人效法他的好榜样而搅得别人心烦外,并没有得到快乐。很多有钱的贵妇人,尽管自然并未赋予她们任何欣赏文学或艺术的兴趣,却决意要使别人认为她们是有教养的,于是他们花费很多烦人的时间学习怎样谈论那些流行的新书。这些书写出来是要给人以乐趣的,而不是要给人以附庸风雅的机会的。
只要你观察一下周围那些你可称之为幸福的男男女女,就会看出他们都有某些共同之处。在这些共同之处中有一点是最重要的:那就是活动本身,它在大多数情况下本身就很有趣,而且可逐渐的使你的愿望得以实现。生性喜爱孩子的妇女,能够从抚养子女中得到这种满足。艺术家、作家和科学家如果对自己的工作感到满意,也能以同样的方式得到快乐。不过,还有很多是较低层次的快乐。许多在城里工作的人到了周末自愿地在自家的庭院里做无偿的劳动,春天来时,他们就可尽情享受自己创造的美景带来的快乐。
在我看来,整个关于快乐的话题一向都被太严肃的对待过了。过去一直有这样的看法:如果没有一种生活的理论或者宗教信仰,人是不可能幸福的。也许那些由于理论不好才导致不快乐的人需要一种较好的理论帮助他们重新快活起来,就像你生过病需要吃补药一样。但是,正常情况下,一个人不吃补药也应当是健康的;没有理论也应当是幸福的。真正有关系的是一些简单的事情。如果一个男人喜爱他的妻子儿女,事业有成,而且无论白天黑夜,春去秋来,总是感到高兴,那么不管他的理论如何,都会是快乐的。反之,如果他讨厌自己的妻子,受不了孩子们的吵闹,而且害怕上班;如果他白天盼望夜晚,而到了晚上又巴望着天明,那么,他所需要的就不是一种新的理论,而是一种新的生活----改变饮食习惯,多锻炼身体等等。
人是动物,他的幸福更多的时候取决于其生理状况而非思想状况。这是一个很庸俗的结论,然而我无法使自己怀疑它。我确信,不幸福的商人与其找到新的理论来使自己幸福,还不如每天步行六英里更见效。
各位领导,同事:
上午好,记得奥斯特洛夫斯基的《钢铁是怎样炼成的》这部名着中有这么一段话:生活赋予我们一种巨大的和无限高贵的礼品,这就是青春:充满着力量,充满着期待,志愿,充满着求知和斗争的志向,充满着希望和信心的青春。的确如此,青春是人生最美好的季节,青春是人生最铿锵的篇章,青春是摧枯拉朽的豪情,青春是旭日东升力量,青春的我们意气风发,青春的我们敢为人先,青春的我们斗志昂扬。
十年磨一剑,霜刃未曾试。刚刚走出大学校门的我们,带着对前程事业无限的憧憬,带着年轻人无比的朝气,敢为人先的激情和对教师职业的无限热爱,跨入了刚刚落成的北郊新校园。
漫步校园,看整齐气派的教学楼,艺美楼,实验楼;郁郁葱葱的友谊林,校友林,学子林,朝气蓬勃的莘莘学子孜孜不倦,意气风发的教师队伍兢兢业业……身在北郊校园,面对如此充满生机与活力的北郊沃土,怎能不引起我们年轻教师心中那份身为北郊人的荣耀与自豪呢 工作中,同事间团结协作,和衷共济,众志成城;生活中,朋友间互帮互助,坦诚相待,其乐融融。身在北郊校园,面对如此充满热情和温情的北郊热土,怎能不使我们青年教师感受到工作的安心,顺心,生活的舒心,温馨 身为北郊新教师,我切身的感受到北郊是一个焕发着勃勃生命力的学校,为年轻教师的发展搭建了一个广阔的舞台,为年轻教师的茁壮成长提供了一片肥沃的土地。也切身感受到她对轻教师的那份殷切的关怀。不仅给我们提供了丰厚的物质条件,而且开展新老教师师徒结队和各类教研活动,促进我们年轻教师早日成材。问渠哪得清如许 为有源头活水来。正是这种宗旨和理念,一批年轻教师不断成长,为北郊的繁荣发展不断的注入新鲜血液,北郊必将生生不息,充满生机。
现在北郊正处于二次创业的关键性时刻,励精图治,百废待兴,新的路子和成功的经验,都需要我们去探索去吸取。创业是艰苦的,布满荆棘和坎坷;创业是喜悦的,充满着成就和自豪。创业对于我们青年教师来说是机遇也是挑战,创业必须勤勤恳恳,踏踏实实一步一个脚印。
身为北郊的新教师,在今后的工作中,我必将会严格要求自己,提高自身水平,不断进取,爱岗敬业,厚德爱生,以自己的一腔热诚投入到工作中去;把自己的一片爱心奉献给学生,在这个神圣的岗位上实现自己的人生价值,为北郊事业的蒸蒸日上添砖加瓦。
青春是美好的,青春更是短暂的。羡子年少正得路,有如扶桑初日升。君不见,高堂明镜悲白发,朝如青丝墓如雪。我们不能在人生最光辉的时刻虚度年华,碌碌无为。迷人的彩虹出自大雨的洗礼,丰硕的果实来自辛勤的耕耘。我们应好好地把握青春,学那搏击风雨的海燕去展翅翱翔;学那高大挺拔的青松去傲雪经霜。
雄关漫道真如铁,而今迈步从头越。青年教师们,让我们用我们的辛勤付出和努力奋斗,使我们的青春在北郊二次创业中闪光!
我的演讲完了,谢谢大家。
